Hank is in a slump but it's not solely his fault. It's never really solely anyone's fault.
However, the combination of factors in this game are:
1)Mitchell being a retard and kicking the puck into his own net.
2) Mitchell being a retard yet again and overskating the puck for a 3-on-1 the other way for the 2nd Buffalo goal, Buffalo 2 - Mitchell 0.
3) Mitchell skating on the ice when it clearly should be almost anybody else.
4) Stepan is horrific.
5) And the offense is completely inept and inconsistent. How many chances do you need to score a damn goal? Don't say it's luck and don't say it's Miller. Conklin, a waiver wire bum, brought us to OT the other night and he's just one example of **** goalies and average goalies posing as superstars when they play the NYR.
Oh well. 1st place was nice while it lasted though I can't believe it lasted as long as it did. Pitt will win tomorrow and will overtake it and we won't see it for the rest of this season. And this isn't a melodramatic response to a loss either because anyone who reads me on these boards knows I'm always this annoyingly pessimistic. Wouldn't exactly say I'm wrong either.
