Hawks look lazy as hell, but Crawford hasnt looked good at all since he got back either.

Somebody has to do the scoring around here.
At least Bennett will be back for a few games (before he's injured again).

This is what happens when you disrespect Cam Neely
It just seems like Dallas has way more nights where they let in 5 goals on 20 shots than games where their goaltender shuts the door and wins it for them.

Kari Lehtonen might be heading for a quick pull if the Rangers score another goal here.

Yeah, I don't think Crow has looked very good since he has come back either.

It's basically been him, crosby, malkin, letang and despres. Everyone else has been invisible in the bad way.

*team gives up 18 shots in the 1st period*

yeah i don't think the goalie looks very good either while the D stands around kind of near the crease and let's players spin around in front of the goalie

I'll be honest I'm wondering if we're just gonna have to accept this season being a transitional season where we wait out Martin's contract so we can rebuild/solidify our top six in the offseason. If we were healthy I think we'd be pretty well set for bottom six if we retained this crew, our D is solid, our centers are good...we just need wingers for our top two lines.

Well, I am not just talking this game. Crawford has been back for 4 games now and he hasn't look particularly sharp in any of them.

I don't think there should really be any controversy, but it's something to watch.

This team is whisper thin right now. I just don't know how they can win like this. Can't blame coaching, just no talent up front.

i think he's looked fine. letting forsberg walk around 3 players in about 3 seconds probably isn't the best strategy though. they're making mistakes and the goalie is paying for it.

Yeah, our system is fine when we're not all dead. They're not even looking horrible now, they just have no one who can actually finish the chances that our cycles and rushes set up.

I think this roster with all of these injuries is worse than the year where crosby and malkin were both out and Staal was our 1C.

He could and should have stopped that second goal. Besides Im talking about as a whole since he got back. He has been shaky at best and its really noticeable compared to how he started the season. And as I said before, the D has been poo poo the last few games as well so that is probably just compounding the issue.

Doesnt help the Preds look like theyre treating this like an elimination game and punishing every mistake the Hawks make. Which there have been an abundance of.

Man Habs have been really offensively poo poo again this game I have to say. Most teams would never be in a position to win like this except maybe the Leafs.
