Ok, so I tried to find a worthwhile audio clip of Cartman saying “nuh uh I donta rack dishapline” but I couldnt find anything worthwhile. Well, you get the point, high tech visual cues or not.

UPDATE: This should be good enough

Rangers had this game for the taking, they were dominating for the vast majority of the second, then they take one penalty, then another, then another, then another, all within moments of each other. Eventually you are going to get burned. Im not going to complain about the veracity of the calls because I think the reffing has been iffy both ways, so you cant complain about that, but you can complain about the Rangers not keeping their composure. You have to stay outta the penalty box fellas, especially against a lethal power play like the ones Philly bolsters.

Right now, I just want a point out of this game, I’ll take it and run.

It’ll take a solid 20 minute effort to secure the point, because I expect the Flyers to come out strong.

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction

That may be a simplified look at Sir Isaac Newtons third law, but, it kind of makes sense here, doesn’t it? If Henrik Lundqvist makes amazing save after amazing save, sooner or later hes going to give up a monumentally bad goal. In the first period, we saw said goal. There is no excuse for that goal. Henrik should have had it, Valliquette would have had it, heck even Kevin “deer in headlights” Weekes would have had that puck. All you can do is shrug it off, and take it for what it is, an aberration.

With that said, Henrik is the reason we are still in this game. He made at least 4 mind blowing saves in the period, all of which were highlight reel quality (mental note for myself when doing offseason music vids).

The Rangers came out flat, the Flyers came out flying. The difference in this game right now is Henrik Lundqvist, despite the crap goal he gave up. We have no business being tied in this game, we look flat, lethargic, and definitely on our heels. The Flyers are applying all the pressure, and are forcing us into making rushed decisions. It’s the same thing that the Senators exploited us with earlier in the season.

Still though, we managed a goal, and a flying Fedor Tyutin is the reason why. He had several good chances, and buried one goal, not much more you can expect from the former 2nd round draft pick.
