Rangers have to be careful

Like he heard me on cue, Brasheer goons up the game and starts hacking at the puck 3-4 times AFTER the whistle was blown, and hank had it in his glove. Of course the refs allow Brasheer to attack hank with no penalty, then Orr roughs up Brasheer, and the two both get roughing penalties. For washington, this is a victory. Brasheer has no game anyway, so losing him is no big deal, but getting 4 on 4 hockey is a victory. It means one less ranger on the ice to block shots. It means more open ice for Ovechkin. And it means the more talented team has an edge. Rangers do not want to get into a 4 on 4 game.
