GDT: #1 - 10/13/21 | RANGERS @ capitals | 7:30 - TNT

His devious smile when he said “yea” to being ready to go tomorrow is what Wilson sees in his nightmares.

Wilson is an idiot, but I doubt he fears anyone.

I'd actually like if nobody even paid any attention to Wilson and instead Reaves et al just proceeded to bury every Capital player every chance they get.

This is the proper response

 

[Atax]

to me someone fights Wilson but that's probably it.

I understand this is a much more, um, rude lineup than we've had in the past but I just don't see it. this isn't based off anything, just me guessing

big thing for me is a lot of our meaner players are not only new, but from western teams that have no real relationship with the Caps sans Goodrow and Reaves going out of his way to violate Wilson when they play.

Didnt Wilson injure Blais?
Tinordi and him had a go last season.
Dont know if Goodrow has any major history with the Caps.

I expect the Rangers to come out and hit/get physical with everyone. Wouldnt be suprised to see someone like Hathaway or Wilson fight.
The Rangers just need to stay out of the penalty box and play clean.

I'd like that too, but there is zero doubt that Wilson be involved in at least one fight.

 

[McRanger92]

I’d rather have chaos

I just hope it happens somewhat organically. The staged fights last year against the Caps were cringey imo. The Rangers will get their shot at Wilson if they play the tough, physical style theyve been preaching.

There will be no fights, since Bettman is watching and it's TNT's first broadcast.

Instead, Reaves and Wilson will do a staged, choreographed strip tease at center ice.

It'll go viral and the NHL will become the #1 pro sport in America.

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

I have Reaves breaking Wilson's nose on my bingo card. Hopefully it comes to fruition. Don't want a circus tonight just want Wilson to get bloodied up.

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

I want Reaves to beat Wilson with his knee brace. Time to repay that shithead and get this grudgematch over with so we can all get back to arguing over lines and icetime for the kids.

Mostly I want to see a W, because this board would be absolutely unreadable if we started the season with a loss.

As if we need a loss for this.

Idk, I wanted to see an L personally.

25 pages of a PGT: burn it down, fire GG, fire Drury, trade Laf and Kakko etc etc

Hopefully no one like another one of your posts.

@JimmyG89 you da real MVP.

The NHL season is a marathon, not a sprint. Plaster these dudes into the boards all night.

 

[E-Train]

Of course it would be great to see Tommy Boy get pounded. I really want to see Blais and Hunt run wild on the Caps D. Smash them all night.

Their defense is very suspect. They need to take advantage of it all night and those bottom lines need to be physical against them.

 

[Thirty One]

Wilson sounds like he's going to dodge Reaves. That's fine. Hopefully Kuznetsov knows how to defend himself.

All out big guys were out. Staged fights with Tinordi, Reaves, Goodrow,Trouba, etc will be different

 

[TominNC]

Seriously, they didn't make these offseason moves to look over, see Wilson and say, ah nevermind/
