Stars 1, Rangers 0

14

The New York Rangers (17-7-4) lost to the Dallas Stars (17-11-1) by the score of 1-0, tonight. For a boxscore and recap go to Yahoo! Sports.

…Rangers forecheck has been non-existant in three out of the last four games. The Blueshirts live and die by the forecheck and if they don’t find it soon we’re going to see a lot more nights like tonight. The kid for Dallas was pretty good in the third as well.

…for as good as Woywitka has been is as bad a turnover that was on the Stars only goal.

…hope Jim Ramsey had some ice packs waiting for Hank after this one. That shot from Souray would have snapped my collarbone in half.

…charging penalty on Hagelin in the first could be the worst call in the history of hockey.

…Dubinsky has absolutely no confidence in his goal scoring ability as he is looking to pass every time he has the puck. I do like that Torts is getting him some shifts with Richards and Callahan though.

…zero points and a -1, not exactly the game Richards wanted to have against his former team.

…can someone show Prust the New York Times series on Boogaard?

…the power play, which had been so good lately, fails the Rangers on three third period opportunities.

…was nice seeing Dvorak still going strong.

…you know what the Rangers needed tonight to get them going? Sean Avery.

…despite the giveaway by Woywitka, you’ve got to give Sather a ton of credit for picking both him and Stralman off the scrap heap as they’ve helped the Rangers defense not miss a beat with both Staal and Sauer out with injuries.

…so much for first place in the East.

…can someone call Barbara Underhill for Boyle please?

…off tomorrow then on to St. Louis to take on JD’s Blues.
