Was Zuccarello’s play worth the consequences?



Elliotte Friedman explained why he thought Rangers’ forward Matts Zuccarello’s feisty play in game three against the Canadiens was a positive.

  1. So hard to watch as a ranger fan such a great team with so much young talent not show up in the first three games

  2. This is a high stick now doubt, a fair four minute minor, but how about that missed Andrew Shaw high stick on Brady Skjei that made the kid bleed?

  3. Stupid play by mats but he shouldn't be suspended i'm a habs fan but jesus i'm not dumb enough to say he should be suspended do i think his penalty was stupid? Yes but no suspension there just a frustrated player i see here trying to spark his team but it didn't help at all

  4. The reason they lost was cause James Dolan was at the game spreading his loser mentality.

  5. I just loved how 70% of the MSG got emptied after Radulov's goal when there was still 5 minutes left to the game. lmao

    Also I understand why Zuccarello is so mad, Ott has been in his face, pissing him off for the past 3 games, the dude is just losing his nerves. I hope he doesn't get suspended, I appreciate him taking stupid penalties to help my team win.

  6. Its called hockey. Sorry Mats turned around and shoved Radulov at his upper body. If you dont like it, then don't watch playoff hockey…

  7. I was at the game tonight. It was a total embarrassment as a Rangers fan. No effort from the majority of the team. Kreider, Stepan, Miller, and Hayes all needed to be benched.

  8. "a penalty of effort"…bullshit bla bla bla. it was a dumb penalty that cost the Rangers dearly. Keep them comming go habs go

  9. How is this even a discussion? They lost the game, and the Rangers got shelled. Physical play doesn't work well against Montreal, especially after they beefed up majorly this season. If they were playing the speedy game they're supposed to be known for, the Rangers might be able to compete with Montreal, but as of right now the only player holding them in it is Lundqvist.

  10. Last night was garbage. It is so hard being a Ranger's fan and watching a team of young guns not play. There was no offense. No forecheck.

  11. That penalty didn't matter. The rangers looked like an ECHL team out there. No heart and no guts. Zucc was the only one besides Glass out there playing physically

  12. Lundqvist.. sigh Should get rid of him ASAP.. Stories tells he ain't staying there for long anyways..
