Last night in New York the Rangers were playing a more desperate game than the Habs, and looked like they wanted the 2 points and do any thing to get it.Chris Drury scored 2 goals, and Antropov scored a single goal in the 3-1 victory over Montreal. As for Montreal, Dandenault scored the loan goal in the lose. The Canadiens were just one win away from clinching a Playoff spot last night, but for the second straight game they could not get it done."There is no sense in panicking now," defenseman Josh Gorges said.
"I mean, there are only two games left and we understand that. We understand where we sit and the magnitude of the games coming up, but we can't let these things bother us. You gotta get better from it. You gotta move past it and make sure Wednesday we're ready to get back to work and Thursday we're ready to play in Boston. The games aren't going to get any easier from here on out."
With all do respect to the Rangers, Sean Avery was cross checking and high sticking Montreal Players in the face but no Penalty call on the Play. But when Komiserk just litery taps Drury he jets a penalty. Is it just me or is there something wrong with the NHL's Officiating. When Gainey was asked about the officiating in last nights game he said: "were not going to point any fingers at anyone.Next question"
"We got into the game well, but in the second period the Rangers really took control of the play, where it was happening, the number of shots on net and the scoring chances," Gainey said. "We were not the only desperate team in the game (Tuesday night) and I think they showed that. They created the lead and made it difficult for us to find time and room and shots in the offensive zone in the second half of the game."The Canadiens last 2 games of the season are against the Bruins (on Thursday) and against the Penguins (on Saturday).
