Regulation Ice Hockey Nets
Help Wanted Goal Scoring Needed!
The Great start to the New Year has been struck with a drought in goal scoring.
After a beautiful goaltending battle between Henrik Lundqvist and Martin Brodeur in a 0-0 regulation and OT, the Rangers thought they would be able to ride the back of Henrik Lundqvist and get points out of every game like this.
The next game against Ottawa Senators would prove the same for the Rangers in the goal scoring department. But this time it was to a struggling team and a back up goalie. Not the first place Eastern Conference New Jersey Devils. Maybe it had something to do with Ottawa’s goalies last name as it was also Broduer, but this was Mike and not Martin. The game in a whole was a let down compared to the way they played against the Devils.
Now we are at six straight periods without a goal for, ouch! Not a good recipe for winning hockey games.
Saturday nights game against the St. Louis Blues after a period of play would make for seven straight periods without a goal scored.
Finally in period two B. Boyle would finally break the drought after stealing a puck from behind the Blues net and put a back hand home to give the Rangers their first goal in 172 minutes of play. A sigh of relief!
Not only did the goal end the Rangers drought it would tie the game at one against the Blues who were the proud owners of three straight wins.
With Chad Johnson getting his second start between the pipes he would have a ruff third period of play. Blues would score only :45 into the third to break the 1-1 tie and then Chad would give up a bad goal not covering the post putting the Blues up 3-1. Blues would add an empty netter and take a 4-1 win while winning their forth straight.
Next up for the Rangers are the Canadians who are right behind them in the standings which makes this a big game, also Scotty Gomez returning to the garden should be a fun or miserable night.
