- Home opener
- First game in 18 months with potential full capacity

And they can't even fill half of the lower bowl

Was that quote from Patrice Bergeron or Claude Giroux?

Probably Bobby Clarke.

I'm very tired of the NHL incessantly keeping penalty calls relatively even every game on purpose. That isn't how it is really being played. The clutch and grab Islanders system commits infinitely more penalties than the Rangers system every did. Tonight is the same crap. Refs ate the whistle after a couple early offsetting calls.

They don't wanna get carried away making calls early. But when they call one for one team they will call one for another unless something egregious happens to make it uneven.

Radulov fell down on a Trouba stand up at the line, hooked him 5 times around the thigh yanking at him, no call.

Dumb

NHL officiating is the worst. Always looking to manage the game.

 

[THE BIG WHISTLE]

Different sides though.

I think Jones could play either side

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

It's more of hesitation to get in and get hit for the puck

Good point.

We are supposed to play more brave this year. Blais has thrown himself around Kreider has been more forceful. I hope others pick it up too.

I noticed that when Sam said they had a full house.

It's time for Panarin to do Panarin stuff. Zibs got paid, he never struck me as a player that forces the play. He is opportunistic

Which is why I think Kakko should be playing with him. NYR version of Matthews-Marner. Kakko can make plays, and Zibs can score.

Half the problem is that Strome and the others automatically look for Panarin even when he isn't in a good position. The default is give Panarin the puck then everything stops. Really half arsed way to play.

 

[Lays]

I wouldn’t be opposed to stacking the 1st line with Panarin, Zib, and whoever else. Colorado does it with Landeskog-MacKinnon-Rantanen despite having no depth after them. Of course Boston does it as well with Marchand-Bergeron-Pastrnak

It’s clear that Zib and Panarin are struggling hard to create

 

[DanielBrassard]

Pics.

Sicko

 

[CasusBelli]

Then yeah. Wtf.

 

[n8]

The pass was just fine, if that was Tinordi receiving the pass that’s a different story. I bet Zach Jones makes the play

saying "X play would have caught that pass" doesn't magically make the pass not-shitty.

 

[TGWL]

Reminds me of the good old days when Dubi was kissing Step for his first game hat trick. Times have changed.

They had a good team bonding going on.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Maybe they were playing poker earlier today, because that's the only f***ing way they have a full house.

There isn't 10,000 people left in New York who can afford those.

 

[TGWL]

Lundqvist saying "we". How cute.

 

[Doctyl]

lmaoo Hank talking about the rangers beating themselves

Mans has been abused too many times by this team

 

[Kords]

NOT SAYING I WANT TORTS,

but as a fun thought experiment do you think these guys play this lazy and disorganized for him if he was brought back instead of the greatest players coach in the world?

 

[Richard Banger]

Maybe they were playing poker earlier today, because that's the only f***ing way they have a full house.

It was confirmed that they are sold out tonight.

confused about that tbh what’s going on? I assumed they just showed up late like rich people do or MSG isn’t full capacity yet

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Team needs more skill

Do you have Kravs cell number? How fast can he make it back from Russia?

 

[hi]

Henrik Lundqvist > Wayne Gretzky

Don't @ me

 

[rdhstlr23]

Zibs looks lost without another player able to help drive play (Buchnevich).

I’m so tired of Kreider. He should be a 3rd line player.

 

[CasusBelli]

Our problem, Vally, was not our defensive system last year: it was our roster. We have an all star defenseman and two second pairing defensemen. 2/3 of our LD are not NHL quality. You’re just not going to win with that.

 

[n8]

lol Henke and Valley got Shesty's back on that goal.
Love that goaltender insight.
