Sullivan says Crosby didn’t start OT because he had a skate issue. - Thunderbolt
Okay okay...I can trust that haha. Its hard to believe initially because we have all been in here disgusted with the exact same decision in this season already. |

Most definitely should have gone with Malkin and Rakell. My bet is Sullivan wanted Drew out there to start.
We're still in a good spot here. We need the Rangers to win in regulation tonight. Detroit's schedule isn't intimidating by any stretch. Better chance of overtaking the Islanders. - Thunderbolt
Oh yeah, they still kinda have their fate in their own hands at this point. |

Harkins is 'conditioning' in WBS. Accieri is still not skating.

So close. I just needed Crosby with the winner for my prediction. A point is a point though. |

I am less annoyed given Sid had skate issues (Sid always has skate issues). Presumably they wanted Sid+Rust as a pair, and were going to them next. Not sure if Geno+[Bunting,Rak] would've done any better than Eller+DOC. They need to figure out how to be average at 3-on-3 for next year.
Played really well last night, heck of a road game. If they had played anything like this most of the year they'd be locked into a top-3 spot in the Metro even with their terrible PP and OT.
Next game is huge. With 2 days off prior, I am looking for Sid to come out hot.

I thought they looked sluggish for stretches last night, more so mentally. Just not quite the same attention to detail and crispness to their play as we've seen for a few weeks. Seemed to lose more board battles than they had been in this time frame, as well. Leafs are a great and potent team, so I dont want to take anything away from them in saying this stuff. One way of looking at it is its a bit encouraging they even got a point vs a team like that on the road despite not looking/being on par with what we've seen the past few weeks for stretches of the game.
I think a day or two of rest will go a long way. |

I'm not a big fan of Harkins tbh. I thought he could add a bit of offense but NONE. I'd keep Bemström for now. |

Yeah, that was the 5th game in 8 days, which is just terrible scheduling. Do fans really want to see exhausted players? The extra day off should really help. |
