[PlamsUnlimited]

Now the expected goals is even again. I don't understand this team. I'm not sure what to do with my hands.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

WHERE WHEN WHO HOW

It’s on the PlayStation store right now! 50% off with the Black Friday sale

 

[Machinehead]

When are you coming back?

 

[aufheben]

I’m trying to be as fair as I can watching this process of rebuilding, but, truthfully, DeAngelo is the only young Dman I see as being a potential keeper. There is so much about his game that looks special. Pionk is getting a a lot of press and love, but DeAngelo just does everything so well. I see Letang when I watch him play.

Not sure what you mean by keeper but yeah he’s got a stupid amount of talent.

 

[Machinehead]

f***in Valiquette's got an actual pad.

 

[NYR94]

Vally's got props now

I like Claesson as well, so I would hope we keep him, but I mostly agree. There's hope for Pionk, but I see him ending up as more of an M.A. Bergeron or a better Raphael Diaz. Although I'm trying to withhold some judgement until we see him with a more apt partner than Staal.

And good god Bishop's pads are f***ing ginormous.

 

[EpicDing]

Al "I thought it was a real record" get rekt Vally

 

[Lime]

Imagine Stevie is the coach and he walks in the room with that pad in the intermission

 

[MetalJaws]

Waayyyyyyyyy too much credit to Staals awareness

 

[Kovalev27]

You look at the number Tony D put up in Juniors as a defenseman and it’s jaw dropping. Kid was a beast. He’s just JUST scratching the surface of what he can be. Kid learned how to defend too. He’s obviously a prick but he’s coachable or he wouldn’t have figured that part out.

I just wish he was getting the push that Pionk is getting because I think he’d do even more with it. I’d play him 23 mins a game all day long

 

[Tob]

Waayyyyyyyyy too much credit to Staals awareness

I was thinking the same. If that doesn't get Howdened in by Vesey there, it's a Jimbo falling down a Staal trapped down low.

 

[Tob]

 

[nevesis]

Is this real?

Only if it’s Whiskers in disguise.

 

[MetalJaws]

where was this?

Some said Rangers GA without Skjei is not too shabby.

I then commented on his over ratedness in a Nylander trade. It was a joke. That is all.

 

[nevesis]

Bishop hurt? Lol

Quinn has this team overachieving. I think he knows what he's doing.

 

[EpicDing]

Bishop hurt?

 

[NCRanger]

Bishop is out.

Am I the only one who thinks DeAngelo is a right handed Del Zotto? Is that racist?

To clarify the similarities other than heritage: Offensive defensemen who dominated juniors offensively. Could use some work defensively. And both entering the league with chips on their shoulders

Totally agree.

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

is it the chest protector or does Khudobin have a massive beer belly?

 

[NYR94]

Valiquette stole his pad.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

I thought Bishop looked hurt the last few minutes of the second, he was moving gingerly.

 

[Machinehead]

Our play made him physically ill.
