Rangers need more shots from between the point and the top of the circles. Everything they're trying to do is right on top of Quick, and the whole Kings D have that area locked down.

eh, if nothing else they just need to start throwing more pucks towards the net I think. too much fancy passing and swooping around behind the net and poo poo, sometimes you gotta just crash the net and throw the puck there

imo this is so important with a goalie like quick. i think his acrobatic instincts entail more rebounds and the D knowing that it's going to happen and clearing it out is huge.

i think almost any time MAF has a good game, it means the pens D was doing this

yeah exactly, Quick kicks out a ton of rebounds but his teammates are there to keep them from being dangerous. Honestly it's this kind of stuff that makes me not ready to blindly accept the idea that team defense doesn't affect save percentage to some degree

e: tbh I think AV needs to put Brad Richards back with Hagelin and St Louis and reunite the rangers fourth line. the lines look weaker the way they are

Hey Rangers try that play where you dump it in every rush and try to cycle below the net!

Oh they figured that out? Well try the play where you throw the puck up really high and far and hope one of your fast skaters can catch it.

Oh they figured that one out too? I guess you're gonna get shut out.

To my untrained eye, it sure seems like they're playing with energy and desperation; just not executing well.
