GDT: #19 - 11/15/18 | RANGERS @ islanders | 7:00 - MSG

[Kovalev27]

30-20-7, 5 shutouts, 2.32GAA .918SV% career vs the Islanders

He hasn’t beaten them in two years. Spare me the history lesson.

 

[NYR]

Pionk’s ****tiness has distracted me from Staal’s.

Open your eyes kid.
Staal is the least of this team's problems..

 

[effen]

The biggest problem is Quinn's coaching when we're leading. We completely fall apart like a perfectly cooked shoulder of carnitas. Unless we work that out, we can expect to blow another 25 games this year.

im a huge quinn fanboy but the way they play in the defensive zone sucks

 

[Harbour Dog]

They only have 10 scoring chances.

What they've gotten has been of great quality, but they haven't gotten much at all.

And like I said, you should still be stopping most great quality chances.

"Great quality chances" vary so much though. The first goal in particular, is going in 100% of the time.

The only way a goalie saves that is if he falls down on his own and it hits him while he's trying to recover.

They don't have the personnel.

 

[CHGoalie27]

trip missed on Pionk

I'd scream but instead I'll just laugh

Every game I've ever seen Dan OHalloran has been tilted.

Venezuela was once a country with a booming economy and my ex-wife was incredibly hot years ago. Things change

 

[Kovalev27]

Lot of things going on tonight against us.

Hank terrible

Lot of lucky deflections and bad defending in front of the net

Phantom penalties

Dumb reads like veseys

It’s not one thing.

They don't have the personnel.

A good coach knows how to adjust

Kevin Shattenkirk is our best defensive player. There's no system that's going to make this team play good defense.

He should definitely score more.

 

[nevesis]

Fun fact: 90% of people in this thread tonight live in an ivory tower. What a night.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Someone needs to learn to effectively prevent opposing forwards from deflecting the puck in front.

 

[CasusBelli]

Huh? R u serious right now? I would bet my house, this won't be the final score.....what are you wagering?

And double if the Rangers come back and win.

I don’t mean it’s the final score. I fully expect us to score. I just expect the Isles to have outscored us by the end of the game.

They don't have the personnel.

77 22 44 are all light weights barely able to muscle players out. Skjei is stupid. Staal is a statute. I'm not one for immobile stay at home D but we do lack a bit of size .

Well, I'd argue Claesson, but this is absolutely true.

Edit: Although they have been much better as a team limiting quality chances.

In short?
The Fishsticks are just currently miles better than the NYR..

Edit: That pains me to say more than you can imagine..

 

[LORDE]

Again when the team’s luck runs low or they come back to earth a bit... wild Pionk end to end epic goals of the week rushes don’t happen and this team loses people are forced to see reality... and that hurts... for some

That's Anders Lee's house.

 

[effen]

I'm pretty sure they have guys with legs who can not sag 15+ ft. off point men to defend hypothetical people in the mid slot

[Gresch04]

I’ve seen the following posts that deserve the same reply:
Staal has been good all year
Shattenkirk is our best defensive player
Hank sucks tonight

WRONG!!!

 

[Machinehead]

Well, I'd argue Claesson, but this is absolutely true.

Edit: Although they have been much better as a team limiting quality chances.

That's very true, but playing shorthanded would be better than an AV team at limiting quality chances.

There's still room for improvement. I think it's impressive that Quinn has gotten them to "not sickening" with this personnel.

 

[Richard Banger]

Hank pulled el oh el.

It can only go uphill from here, let`s go!!
