Blackhawks @ NY Rangers IGT: 02/16/12

4-4 on the pk tonight

 

[DMelt36]

The hit was called as "boarding." He got the extra two because they're in MSG with a 3 goal lead, methinks.

Sounds completely legit.

 

[tbo41fan]

what a flop by boyle

 

[tbo41fan]

there we go...make up call

"That's fucking bullshit!" --Toews

Good place for the mic. :lol:

 

[tbo41fan]

4 on 3 pp

 

[tbo41fan]

lol dubinsky you ****

Is it just me or does the seating for hockey at Madison Square Garden look odd?

MSG is a terrible place to watch a hockey game.

I've been there a couple of times and it is a dump. I have not been there since the renovations though.

Basically they don't have levels and there are a lot of crappy seats in the house.

By the way...John Scott is a moron. Could have completely wasted all the momentum the Blackhawks had. He does a nice job screening the goalie but then he makes 2 blueline turnovers the next shift and that moronic penalty.

Shaw has really been struggling lately. He looks gassed and is easily getting knocked off his feet.

Olsen has been playing very solid for his age. With Olsen's size and his mobility he could have a very nice future in the NHL.

 

[tbo41fan]

omg the penalties. lol

 

[tbo41fan]

i thought that was in

 

[Captain Iago]

Please tell me the ref had "intent" to blow the whistle there...

Suppose not if it's being reviewed.

 

[HawkWriter]

i thought that was in

Looked like about 80% of that puck was across the line before the ref showed intent to blow the whistle.

Close one. Blackhawks deserve a break though!

 

[tbo41fan]

hawks got lucky on that no goal

 

[Captain Iago]

Did Toews take Rupp's stick in that sequence after dropping his own? Edit: On second look nope.

 

[tbo41fan]

lucky to escape only giving up 1 goal

No idea but nothing will ever beat the Bobby Ryan and Mikko Koivu exchange from last year.

For those who don't remember, Ryan (a righty) takes Koivu's (a lefty) stick and then quickly scores on a one timer and holds the stick up like a trophy.

Christ, there was one single turnover at 17:21, and if you call that a "bad turnover," you're really, really nitpicking. You surely can find something better to make your case against John Scott.

I do remember that and it was hilarious how Ryan was flaunting it.

Kane seems to be playing with high intensity tonight. Its nice to see that form again. If he keeps it up he may get that goal to add to his assist.
