The Mark Of A Good Team - Rangers@Capitals Post Game Thoughts…

After tonights game, I really have a good feeling about this club. Not because they played a particularly great game. When they weren’t taking retarded penalties they had Michal Rozsival there to have stupid turnovers. But what I really was amazed to see last night, was here was a team that had their goalie…the man who has basically carried this sad lot on his shoulders for the past several years give up a bad goal…and they didn’t lose. Just chew on that for a while. When was the last time Henrik Lundqvist gave up, not a mediocre goal, but a horrendous, ugly, awful, disgusting, no excuses whatsoever goal, and the guys in front of him actually bailed him out. Oh, and all this while playing against arguably one of the 5 best teams in the NHL. Let’s also be clear on one thing here, the Capitals did not play their best game of the season. You don’t see the great eight have the puck on his stick, in the slot, with nobody around him for miles try...
