Don't misunderstand me, teams need to score to win and must have a hihg octane offense, but if you look at the past few cup champs and watch their games - and I mean really watch their positioning, the way they forecheck and backcheck, the way they play in the neutral zone - you'll see that there's a strong commitment to team defense. High octane offense is,essentially, a by-product of a defensive system that the whole team has committed to.

I think we essentially are in agreement abou having a balanced team,I just wanted to clarify what I'm saying

Finally Kaner puts one in the back of the net

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

3rd game with a disallowed goal????

This one is the most questionable

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

How many teams do not have a shutout this year.....I feel the Hawks never will....Also I am fine with talking to myself in here

Islanders for life. Favorite team/sport.

Have watched nearly every minute of every game for as long as I can remember.
First games were with the Cup teams so I've seen greatness. If we ever get a new owner and arena and spend some money, maybe we'lll see greatness again. In the meantime, I'll enjoy watching JT mature in an elite superstar and hope some of the rest of the young talent develops too.

Had 1/2 season tix paid for with my own money as a teenager with older brother. More affordable back then.

Can't wait for 1pm! Finally for the first time all year rangers play bruins.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Hopefully its not as boring as the games between these 2 teams have been the past few years. They've played some serious snoozers the past couple years.

It could be. They are arguably the two best defensive teams in the league, which could lead to low scores.

He was never "pretty." Kid looks like an alien.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Rask will probably be in net today for the bruins.

Boston - NYR has been pretty damn entertaining.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Agreed. Great pace to this game.

potential conference finals matchup

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

What a job by gaborik. Waits for the puck to bounce once off a blocked shot, then one times it inside the left post. He broke a pretty log drought there too.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

i really wish the game was on here.

Where? Are you a time Warner victim? I'm in my iPhone so I don't see locations.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Wow. Rask gets his masked knocked off by a slap shot. Never seen that before.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

I'm on comcast in VA

Oh okay. Time Warner in new York didn't renew their contract with MSG on January 1st so no Knicks rangers isles or devils for A LOT of fans.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

yeah, i heard about that.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Did anyone see the save on datsyuk last night in the shootout? Wow.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

Great game to stay in and on a snowy afternoon. Hate the Rag$ but that justice for the cheap shot by Ference. Thinking at least 3 games.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

I'm thinking he gets 0.

Re: NHL 2011/2012 Thread
 

solid win for us
