Hank looks his age these days

The hit on Pionk, from behind and the stick is across the back of his head

I hope Byfuglien gets PCS one of the days.

Yea he looks old. He still makes the incredible save but he lets in some softies. Makes no sense to have Georgy on the bench, play the guy 5-6 games in a row and see what you have in him. He only made 50 saves the other night

Hank has carried this team for so many nights, stealing wins we should have never gotten. It just stinks when he has a game like tonite, those softies he let in cost us the game.
I hope we NEVER get this pair of refs again , they were AWFUL for both teams. Penalties were called for questionable crap, but outright dangerous plays were ignored. Good grief!

Zibanejed is on one of best runs I can remember for a Ranger forward, this is pretty amazing stuff

Absolutely dominant.

Hopefully he can continue it next year and perhaps Chytil will be a beneficiary if they play together.

Kravtsov, rookie of the year.

it's impossible for the Rangers to make the playoffs, no matter what, it can't happen, they are virtually mathematically eliminated

why get frustrated over any loss at this point

While I agree with your sentiment here, I do agree with the OP that I want to see if Georgie can handle a 1B role. I think that's going to be a problem with Hank the next couple seasons. Like Luongo, Hank is better suited as a platoon goalie. I think 50 games a season is about ideal for him at this point. Hank however, always prefered and seemingly played better as a workhorse. You just wonder if he would be willing to go that route.

Edit: it was SLim who suggested Georgie though the OP is right, Hank has been iffy in some games recently.

Might be an unpopular opinion: I don't want to see Zib with Krav and Chytil. We complain about being a one line team. We also know that Zib and Kreider have amazing chemistry. I'm not breaking them up. Instead if we do get rid of Hayes, I think getting a 2C in UFA should be a top priority if we leave Chytil at wing. Just imagine a speed line of CHytil, Kravstov, and a competent 2C when the other team already has to account for Zib/Kreids. We could really have something there.
