After reading 89 million comments, many OT, I don't mind seeing Boyle back to see how he reacts to the scratches. Only blemish is scratching Kreider, he needs time and chemistry too. I tend to think many already see him as an established player, when in reality he is only 20 in his rookie season... he too needs development and ice time.

4th line set in stone IMP, Asham and Powe around Halpern... what more can one ask for, two of them Penalty Killers giving the others a rest...

Wonder what it would look like if Gabby, Richards and Nash played on 3 separate lines.

Im very interested in seeing boyle back even though im not hid biggest fan i think he will be better. I still dont agree with his decision to scratch CK because being benched wont help the only way to keep developing is to play
 
Let's Go Rangers!

Hoping Biron has a good night, glad they're letting Hank get a night off. Good to see Boyle get another change, don't agree with sitting Kreider but he'll be back in there soon.

Really hoping see start seeing more production from Richards and Gaborik.

I inadvertently agreed to a first date tonight. Obviously I'm taking her to Ainsworth to watch the Rangers. haha

I don't miss Ranger games....period...

lot of negativity in this thread, for some reason. Yes, this is the pot calling the kettle black, but we've won 3 in a row. No need for negativity.

You should bring up Brian Boyle as much as possible on the date, conversation will never end.
 
The best part of all this arguing is that the chances of Boyle replacing Kreider tonight being the reason the Rangers lose, is so stupidly low it's almost a non-factor.

If they cannot beat this team without Kreider, that's not Boyle's fault. There's a much better chance to screw-up as a team than there is for Boyle to make such an egregious error is costs them the game.

To be fair, it doesn't seem to be so much that people are concerned that Boyle will make an egregious error. Just that his very presence will suck every semblance of offense out of the team.
 
Don't mind Boyle back, but would have scratched someone else than Kreider. Also would keep an eye who they are dressing (goons), its one game where I wouldn't mind Bickel on the bench honestly. Rangers are better than the Islanders, Bickel will not be the difference between a W or a L, but he is the difference when it could get nasty. My 2 cents.
 
Good luck tonight, Tavares and Hamonic were livid after last game, things should be interesting.

I'd rather have a slumping Kreider than a slumping Boyle in the lineup, but if we win then that is all that matters.

If he is back sunday no big deal but you cant keep jerking around your best prospect and expect him to be a big impact player all of a sudden. I really like the devils coach because he lets some of the younger players like henrique last year and even the kid mattaeu this year play through it
 
so we bench our fastest skater for our slowest skater?
kreider even in this slump is putproducing boyle pointwise. this is taking a huge step back imo. i honestly believe that we have won the past three games because torts cut the slow crappy players (stu boyle and rupp) out of the lineup and put in quick and talanted players (jtm powe kreider gilroy) taking ck and replacing him with brian ****ing boyle wont help anything. we just went from a 4 solid line team to a 2 good top two lines good 4th line and an offensicely inept 3rd line who can kinda play defense (thank god because thats where boyle plays most of his game, in his own zone)

Oh no a rookie is being benched a game! The horror because thats never happened!

its not that kreider is benched its that boyle is in for him. benching kreider is one thing but replacing him with a pylon who can win a faceoff isnt helping anyone
 
Why does Brian Boyle cause so much conflict? Him and CK haven't done a lot recently, although I also would rather see CK in.

I dont see what the big deal is, especially facing the Isles. People ***** when we don't have enough depth, this is what happens when you do. It's a good thing.
