from Larry Brooks of the NY Post,
The Rangers might be able to overcome deficiencies on the power play, problems in their own end and the inability to create a sustained attack, but they simply cannot overcome an average performance from Henrik Lundqvist.
Which is exactly what the Blueshirts got last night—at best—from their elite goaltender in the 4-3 Garden defeat to St. Louis that leaves them three points behind the Bruins for the final playoff spot, with a losers’ bracket confrontation set for Boston on Sunday afternoon.
Then, too, the Thrashers are even in points with the Rangers, with the same game in hand that the Bruins hold on the 10th-place Blueshirts.
“I have to do better, I have to be better,” Lundqvist said after allowing three goals on the Blues’ first eight shots and four on the first 13 shots, including one stinker. “I tried to battle and give the team a chance to win, but the bottom line is that I have to be better.
“Personally, I [stunk]. I am really, really disappointed.”
