Slow Line Change, and Rookie Defense do Hank in


Ottawa gets on the board in a period they have mostly dominated. A slow line change from the Rangers led to Gilroy chasing Spezza into the corner, with Alfredsson trailing. Gilroy was indecisive, and couldn't decide whether to attack the puck and spezza, or to back off and try and cut off the passing lane...so he did neither. Spezza threw a pass to a wide open Alfredsson right in front of Hank and he buried it.

Once again....sports is not complicated. Malkin, Crosby, Alfredsson, Spezza...KEEP A MAN ON EACH, AT ALL TIMES. Leaving the best players on the oppossing team wide open in front of the net? BAD idea.

Rangers lead 2-1, as Alfredsson is taking over and Hank is on his own.

Uh Oh Stat: Rangers have given up 7 odd man rushes so far
