GDT: #16 - 02/24/21 | RANGERS @ flyers | 7:00 - MSG

[EdJovanovski]

I love how Lindgren doesn’t feel pain he just feels anger lmao

 

[RangersFan1994]

No Laffy on the PP to start. Great coaching only here in Rangersland

 

[MysticLeviathan]

I hate strome and blackwell on the pp

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

Those early 2000s teams couldn’t defend for shit. This one surprisingly can.

Defense has been great this season. Aside from tonight.

But that’s one small component.

 

[will1066]

Lindgren one tuft of hair thru helmet

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Blackwell on PP1 lol youre f***ing kidding Quinn

 

[Shesterkybomb]

When they wrote that letter and burned it all down in Spring of 18, I understood the AHLers scattered all over the lineup and did not mind it. We are three years into the future and there are similar scrubs scattered all over the ice. Disgusting. And that's after what? 3 top-10 picks, two being top-2 NHL ready prospects? This is a joke.

Chytil, Kakko, Panarin, Trouba and Miller would displace a lot of those.

 

[valence]

Small goalie Shesty... Seems down a lot on his knees. But love his athleticism.

 

[Row I Goon]

this isn't on the goalie to be fair.

with respect I think at least 2 of the 4 are on Igor. The D isn’t helping, either.

 

[NYRKING30]

Can anyone explain why Laf isn’t getting 1st line minutes?? Seriously we’re playing AHL scrubs for some reason

He’s still being punished for scoring a goal on Saturday.

 

[Black Aces]

"We want them to know when they see the Rangers on the schedule, it's going to be a long night. We're going to be a team that's built around defense, and not only in our own zone. We're going to play with the puck, and the minute we don't have it, we're going to work to get it back."

-David Quinn

"Is your work ethic what it needs to be? Is your preparation what it needs to be? It’s our responsibility as a staff of sending the message of what is acceptable and what’s not. That’s part of development. Letting them know they have to earn what they get is part of development. That’s one of my most basic principles.”

-Also David Quinn

When you look at what Strome did on that fourth goal and what he consistently does, and then you look at the minutes he gets, even when we're healthy, these statements directly contradict each other.

And on cue he is out there for PP1

 

[CasusBelli]

Kreider with the tuck and roll.

First time in 25 years of watching hockey that I hear “player 1 summersaults over player 2”

 

[duhmetreE]

you cant make this up.

Been clamoring for a 1-3-1... finally get it but it comes with Blackwell in the ever so important bumper spot

I guess I'll take that

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Zib just missed there

 

[RangersFan]

At least they seem to have gotten it through their thick skulls to "do things quicker" Need to see more of that on 5 on 5 play.

 

[Daves a mess]

I'm not worried.

We have Carl Henriksson. All those great passes to our stud wings in 2023.

Its gonna be god-like.

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

Brendan Smith trying to relive the Wisconsin days tonight.

 

[Anthony5967]

Got Anthony ****** Bitetto and Brendan Smith QB'ing PP2. This is a joke. How much longer should we be patient? Four more years?

 

[MysticLeviathan]

laf has no confidence

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Bitetto trying to solo carry it through multiple Flyers at their blue line on a PP. wtf dude.

 

[valence]

I hate strome and blackwell on the pp

Actually looks good with this group. Lol

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

this PP2 is just a surrender lol.

 

[Dr. Ogrodnick]

Zibby, still cursed.

 

[RickChartraw]

couple of great zone entries there to end the period boys.

 

[CommaSynapse]

He'll be OK with a little tweak from Allaire. Very aggressive style.

It's definitely not the way he played in the KHL. He was much more composed and his technique was pretty solid. For much of his career there, he was very good about not going down early. He also had really good seals.

There needs to be some technical adjustments based on the smaller ice and quicker play for proper reads, for sure, but he's looking more aggressive than he usually plays. He's almost looking a bit more like Sorokin did in the KHL.
