Capitals 4, Rangers 2


The New York Rangers (11-9-1) lost to the Washington Capitals (13-4-4) by the score of 4-2, tonight. For a recap and box score go to Yahoo! Sports and newyorkrangers.com.

...is this team ever going to learn to stay out of the box? The sad thing is that Callahan even said before the game that cutting down on penalties was going to be key. You just can't give a team like the Capitals power play opportunities.

...so is anyone besides Gaborik going to score?

...i was all ready to write about what a great game Redden had and then he had to go and do this.

...however, Gilroy has to do better job stopping Bradley from getting a shot off. Heck tackle the guy if you have to.

...back-to-back games for the real Sean Avery. Loved the punch to Varlamov's head.

...Voros must not be allowed to win a fight as the linesmen jumped in as soon as he was ready to pound on Bradley. He did draw blood so I think that technically means he won.

...two words for Tortorella: faceoff practice.

...two words for Glen Sather: Evgeni Grachev. Why not, the offense can't get any worse.

...who knew Drury had so much impact on the offense.

...three days off for the Rangers to figure this out before Florida comes to town.

I didn't see or hear the game but...damn, tough loss. This game was definitely in the spotlight around the NHL because it was A.O.'s return. Glad to show the everyone me have more scoring other than Gaborik.

*we have, not me. I do score a lot, but not by A.O's definition.
