The Habs owned the puck and our zone for the entire last half of the game. They had something like 9 shots at the midpoint of this game, they had like 22 after that, and at least another 30-40 attempted shots that were wide/blocked. what did we have. 7 shots on goal? something like that? The quality of saves he made, despite the 5 goals is crazy, plus watch how the 5 goals were scored, one timers from the slot, deflections in the slot, point blankers on the doorstep. I mean, what more can you ask of the guy. This one is on the whole team. They "folded like a cheap suit" to copy an ericism.

A blog will be up about that in a couple minutes time. And we did not call anything a turnaround game. We said they had been playing well, but steered very clear of calling it a turnaround.

The Habs are an amazing team, that have as good a chance as any team of winning the cup. Rangers got cocky, and took their foot off the pedal, while Montreal put some nitrous into their engine. They destroyed us, and you can't blame the goalie for this one. When the other team basically plays 30 straight minutes in your zone, you won't win a game. Honestly, it's because of Henrik this one even went to a shootout, he saved our butts many times during this game. He had to be a LOT better than Huet to get his team a point. By the way, anyone else surprised the first time in Rangers history where they blow a 5 goal lead comes on the heels of Eric & Steve talking about turnaround games? *sigh* when will you guys learn ;) I’m not.

They're keeping it simple. Clearing any pucks out in front to the side and working the break out to perfection. The Habs can't get a forecheck going.
