GDT: 10/4 - Preseason Game 5 - New York Rangers @ New Jersey Devils, 7pm EST, MSG, MSG+

[Kravtsov420]

This is somehow more boring than the islanders game and I didn’t think that was possible. Offensive black hole this team is

 

[Fitzy]

30% of any shot doesn't lead to a goal.

In my defense I told you ahead of time I was going to be wasted

 

[RickChartraw]

When should we hear the final trimming of the roster?

 

[2014nyr]

quick definitely not impressive during preseason...but its preseason. will reserve judgement on a guy like him until he's at least had a few games that matter.

actually look pretty functional system wise in the neutral and d zone. offensively they can't seem to generate sht.

panarin has looked absolutely horrific, but again, it's preseason. just don't see anything positive there - like can't catch a pass, can barely take 2 strides with the puck without losing control of it and turning it over. mika has been invisible too but he's always a slow starter and just the way he's moving doesn't worry me the way panarin does.

this team gets credit for it's skill level but up front there really doesn't look like much of any of it so far. some of the vets will wake up but just really nobody that can create something out of nothing, and haven't even seen much of fundamental skills like making and receiving passes or the hockey iq to get to and then find guys in positions to generate offensive chances,

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Two shots on goal so far. One by Goodrow and one by Gust.

 

[hackeyman]

Can we just skip pre-season and this silly nonsense ? Bring on the regular season, then the playoffs , and finally the Stanley Cup. This shit is stupid.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Hot take. Some fans here are going ro lose their shit over NJD having our number the next few years.

This feels like a freezing cold take tbh lol

 

[Rempe73]

These guys are so pathetic.

Slow, complacent millionaires

 

[The Crypto Guy]

No Laf = No team heart.

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

Imagine being such a disgusting, worthless franchise that you draft a 1st overall, a 2nd overall, a goalie that wins a Vezina in his second season and are giftwrapped the best defenseman in the NHL, and the result is a one year “miracle underdog” window.

 

[Kravtsov420]

Fold the franchise I can’t take it anymore

 

[ThirdEye]

If this team is like .500 or worse come midseason they need to do what the Yankees did and just call up a bunch of kids and sit or get rid of as many of the vets as possible

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

If Laf was in the lineup tonight, this would be a much different game.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

The Rangers are SO exposed when playing a better skating team.

Which is like 100% of the league

 

[Kravtsov420]

Zib and Panarin are worthless garbage

 

[DialUp]

No Laf = No team heart.

The bench needs a big ol' bubblicious pop right about now to get the boyz goin'

 

[Machinehead]

The Rangers are SO exposed when playing a better skating team.

Which is like 80% of the league

It's 100% of the league

 

[will1066]

We're only getting a bit of offense when the D activate

 

[duhmetreE]

we should move to Vegas and play in the Sphere... at leaast we can be entertained by the big screen

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

It's 100% of the league

Changed

 

[CLW]

If Laf was in the lineup tonight, this would be a much different game.

Where art thou Laffy O Ranger Saviour

 

[TGWL]

How is that hot take. Or even a take at all

I wasn't serious with the hot take.

 

[bl02]

Is Goodrow the only one on this team that can carry the puck thru the neutral zone to set up a good chance?

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Hot take. Some fans here are going ro lose their shit over NJD having our number the next few years.

I lived through 95-2003. Not interested in a repeat engagement.

 

[turcotte8]

according to nhl.com the shots are 3-1 Devils.
