McCrappy - Rangers@Hurricanes Second Period Thoughts…

Posted by inferno272 on February 28th, 2008

So, let’s see. One ridiculous jumping flying elbow to Rozsivals face nowhere near the puck uncalled? Check. One high stick to Nigel Dawes uncalled? Check. One hit from behind to Ryan Callahan? Check. One extremely quick whistles that cost the Rangers a goal? Check.

Bill McCreary is putting on one of those WTF kinds of games today. Its not likes hes been bad both ways. Hes just been downright onesided here tonight. I know hes a take no crap kinda guy, but for gods sake, at least TRY to look impartial.

Just an absolute disgraceful reffing job here tonight.

Wow - Rangers@Hurricanes First Period Thoughts…

While 1 period does not a game make (see the Montreal game for proof) the Rangers put on an absolute clinic on how you can be an awesome team offensively, defensively, and in the net. They didnt just look good. They looked downright scary good. As Joe Michelletti said, this could have easily been a 5-0 lead for the Rangers after 1. Thats how dominating they were. And even when the Canes got some offensive zone pressure, the D blocked shots, and when they didnt, Henrik made the big save.

This was a very good display (so far). Good because they seem to be doing it day in, and day out.

I’m scared because if they keep playing this well, I may have nothing to bitch about.
