GDT: #14 - 02/16/21 | devils @ RANGERS | 7:00 - MSG

[Killem Dafoe]

Kakko definitely puts up some points tonight. It's overdue.

 

[MetalJaws]

Kakko, Mika and Laf all with points and we go 50% on the powerplay.

 

[Zibanejbread]

Please win... please.

 

[Levitate]

The Rangers need a "gimme" game at some point here...one where shit just breaks their way or they hit a cold goalie or something. I don't know if that's tonight but they damn well could use one.

 

[will1066]

Expect big-time games from Valeri Zelepukin, Slava Fetisov, and Alexei Kasatanov.

 

[CupSeeker]

Devils outplayed us the first time around. We will need to play well to win; no gimmies in this division.

I feel we need the opposite. We need to beat a hot goalie. Varlamov, Rask, Blackwood etc. all shut us down despite getting our chances against them. False confidence victories, like game 2 of the Isles when Sorokin found out he was starting his first NHL game moments before puck drop and looked shellshocked, don't help much in the long run. It's fun to celebrate and good to get a W, but the big guns need to know they can get it done against the elite like they did during last year's run.

So Dallas got an unprecedented 8” of snow dropped on us Sunday and we still have no power now Tuesday. It’s like 50 degrees in my apartment and like 30 in the hallway. Random alarm systems kick on throughout the night and wake everyone up and can’t be turned off until they run their course. Even Walmarts are still closed so the only place to get food is like the gas station and roads are terrible. It sucks. Was hoping to watch this one on my phone but now cell service which is usually full bars in my apartment has dropped to 2 bars and is pretty spotty. Bummer.

Sorry "dawg", know the feeling. Stay calm, ride the storm out and then re-appreciate everything when it goes back to "normal".

They did what now?

Didn't we have 50 shots?

For like 2.5 shifts. The rest was ALL Blackwood

Be safe, friend. Do you have a fire place? I guess just layer up and if you need to refrigerate your food put the perishables in a cooler and stick em in the garage or outside. Another question, is Waffle House open?

We put 50 shots on net to their 28 or so last game. Come on man, I know it's cool to shit on the team but that's nonsense.

 

[bleedblue94]

with wedgewood starting tonight there is no excuse to not hang 4 on the board

 

[SRHRangers]

Jack Hughes and Blackwood outplayed us last game.

Wasn't exactly the Devils outplaying the Rangers .

 

[Synergy27]

Can we all just agree that nothing short of a win is acceptable tonight? Sure we are dealing with a couple of key injuries, but they are dealing with more and haven’t played in literally weeks.

May have to weather an adrenaline storm in the first period tonight but this should be a perfect opportunity for our struggling scorers to get things going.

 

[CupSeeker]

They did what now?

Didn't we have 50 shots?

yes, but we chased the game and piled up shots.

 

[aufheben]

 

[Peltz]

It's the right move. He's made a few costly mistakes here and there, but he's been mostly solid and has given them every chance to win as of late.

 

[haveandare]

Gotta win this one imo but to say there’s no excuse where we’re down 2 of the worst guys we could lose, 3 if you count Chytil, is kind of out there.

 

[WojtekWolski86]

Sam will have a little extra on his "it's a Power play goal!"

"I've been waiting a long time to say that Joe"

 

[Synergy27]

They are missing half their top 6, t

Gotta win this one imo but to say there’s no excuse where we’re down 2 of the worst guys we could lose, 3 if you count Chytil, is kind of out there.

They are missing half of their top 6, two key PMDs, and their surprisingly good starting goalie. They also suck with all of those guys in the lineup.

Win the game.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

In other news the other COVID team, Minnesota, is also making their comeback tonight vs LA

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

Got anxiety seeing we have a game tonight, it’s against the Devils, they haven’t played in a few weeks and Trouba doesn’t have his d partner. Quinn will still probably match him up again Hughes.

Perfect storm for a classic Rangers game tonight.

 

[Anthony5967]

I can't believe that the defense and PK has been as good as it's been but the offense is like fifth-worst in the game

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Hoping to see Kakko or Lafreniere (or both) on PP1.

Still can't believe Quinn took Lafreniere off PP1 last game and put Strome on it. The only PP that was effective was the one Lafreniere was on and then we literally didn't get a shot on goal the last 3 PPs with Strome on them.
