But holy cow, was that an uninspired effort in front of Hank in a Game 7 at home. Add that to the no-show in Game 5 and this is hard to stomach from a Presidents' Trophy winning team.
If I'm Lundqvist, I'm seriously, seriously disappointed.

There was zero excuse for him letting in the first goal. So the case could be made that the same sentiment could be said for the team. Granted, I don't follow the Rangers but I couldn't be more impressed by them. As I mentioned last night, Hagelin and Nash are amazing. They were no 2 players on the ice more responsible for keeping the Rangers in the game last night.
Marty needs to go away, the same with Yedlin. The rest of that team is rock solid- though as blasphemous as it may sound and as capable as Henri is - he cost the Rangers the series in the end. It's not like great goalies grow on trees, but I would be grooming Talbot next year to see what you have in him, instead of hitching my wagon to Lundqvist all season.
