Rangers = Pathetic
Yesterday in a nationally televised game, the incredibly awful New York Rangers completely embarrassed themselves in a 5-2 loss with the Flyers. The Rangers have now dropped 7 of 8 including two overtime losses. Lundqvist clearly does not look the same in net. He did not look comfortable in net at all. He seemed the be much slower moving than usual and after giving up a 4th goal, Lundqvist gave way to Steve Valiquette who gave up a goal of his own. The Flyers scored 1 goal in the first period, a goal early in the second, and then 3 more goals in about a 2 minute span.
The Rangers allowed their 14th shorthanded goal while on a 5 on 3 powerplay.
The Rangers need to make a big move at the trading deadline, and get Sean Avery back in a Rangers uniform.
Tom Renney is also on the hot seat.
