Post-Game Talk: #15 - 11/06/18 | canadiens @ RANGERS | 7:00 - MSG

Lmao

Pionk Babyyyyy. I liked andersons game tonight too, I mean the penalties sucked but he is much better equipped now for the NHL than he was preseason. Hayes had one of his best games this year. I love beating the habs

 

[EdJovanovski]

Great game
We'll make the playoffs

1) Hayes
2) Buchnevich
3) DeAngelo

 

[NYR94]

Lmao

Reminds me of the two valets from Key and Peele who love Liam Neesons and Bruce Willy.

 

[Crease]

If they win all the O6 games, and the games against the Devils, Islanders, Flyers, Pens, and Caps, can they still draft Hughes.

 

[Siddi]

How many Cage gif's do you have?

 

[bl02]

It's possible that one of them could become elite but I wouldn't count on it. Panarin is a great player but I don't see a team winning a cup with him as the best forward.

fair enough. If we don't get a top 1/2 pick (which i don't see...hope I'm wrong) I'm hoping for a D stud like Bowen Byram along with the now loaded defensive pipeline we have that would set us up very nicely with what should be solid goaltending.

 

[bl02]

ADA and Pionk have to play all the time. I know that combined with Shatty that's too much of the same type of player. But that's the beauty of committing to the rebuild. You don't worry about the scoreboard .

Bingo. Just hope coaching staff feels same way and realize the long term goal (2-3 years from now).

 

[Zibanejbread]

Detroit and Ottawa also got 2 points tonight. Success.

 

[Fitzy]

Long been on the pro-Pionk bandwagon so it's good to see that goal.

Let's see him get 40 points this season, hopefully.

Shattenkirk's 3 points in 14 games, however...

Good way to look at it. Nice if all these teams like Detroit and Ottawa (who are obviously bottom 5 teams on paper) continue to be competitive and stay within range. Its a win win. This season hopefully won't have teams like Buffalo, Vancouver and Arizona of last season where they pretty much occupied the bottom three slots without any doubt.

 

[ThirdEye]

Can we all agree that win or lose this team has been a heck of a lot more fun to watch than last season? They're going to have some serious growing pains, but there's been zero lack of effort thus far.

Shatty just looks slow. Whether its still the knee or just his game declining IDK. It might be starting to become obvious when this team starts to be competitive again he won't be making much of a contribution (if he is on the team)

We're rebuilding, it's time to cut the losses and try to trade the guy while he still has value.

 

[Tob]

This is exactly how I feel. You love to see that effort and win, but at the same time, draft position.

I'll settle myself with being happy for the night. **** the Habs.

Unless we get lucky in the draft, the reality is that we're going to not end up with an elite elite talent but a group of great kids that can get it done by committee with a few FA signings and Henrik playing until 52.

Staal had a very good game. Credit where credit is due.

Imagine if we paid Shattenkirk “fair market value?”

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Let’s face it guys. We’re winners

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Gritty win, sticking up for each other,something AV would never have let happen for some reason. I will say this I'm happy Pionk never actually fought Domi though, the kid can throw for his size.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Unshockingly, Kreider and Zbad seem to be really unlocking their full potential under a coach who gives them the ice time to thrive.

Zibanejad is just a beast, man. Best player on the team without argument IMO.

 

[nevesis]

Am I the only one waiting for @Kovalev27 ’s thoughts on that Pionk goal?

 

[BBKers]

Gomez was our best free agent signing. Not from what he did in NYC. But what he became. The guy just keeps on giving

 

[bobbop]

I’m really pleased with the way ADA is playing. Still has work to do but showing significant improvement. Hats off to the coaching staff and a player willing to adjust and learn

 

[bobbop]

If anyone was scouting Hayes tonight, a) the price went up and b) the Rangers clearly have the young players ready to take his place.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Also unshockingly, the team mysteriously starts to play better when ADA is inserted full time.
