GDT: #22 - 11/21/18 | islanders @ RANGERS | 7:00 - MSG 2

[PlamsUnlimited]

I expected the Rangers to be many things this season. Tied for 1st or 2nd in the Metro at the 1/4 mark of the season is not one of them.

Gordnor plz u obviosly dunno hockee

I don’t think anyone had much of a chance against most of last week’s Isles goals. For that reason, if the Isles screen our goalie as well as they did last week, it doesn’t really matter who’s in net. You could, however, also argue that every unscreened shot becomes all the more crucial to save — so our best goalie should be in net

I’m just stoked for this one! Revenge is on!

Eh, when you let up 7 it's at least partly on the goalie, even if the team in front was bad.

Either way, hoping for a win after last week.

We have to catch up, its been too long.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Not gonna lie, think it’s gutless by Hank to avoid this game unless he’s hurt

Is Hank the coach? As if Hank would ever say he doesn’t want to play. Dude wants to play every single game.

Quinn said he wanted to get Georgiev a game this week. I would’ve thought he’s give Hank the Islanders and the Capitals on Saturday considering we’re back to back Friday and Saturday.


Calling Hank gutless for Georgiev getting the start is laugh out loud funny and probably the most absurd thing I’ve seen on here which is saying a lot so good job.

This is a message forum right? It’s all about speculation right? Could it possibly be the Islanders are in Hank’s head? They’ve owned him for a few years now. It’s worth a discussion around here compared to the usual personal attacks from people like you. And for the record before you accuse me of being a Hank basher I’m going to his meet and greet in a few weeks [mod]

I'm not calling you a Hank hater.

I am saying that calling Hank gutless for Georgiev getting the start is laugh out loud funny and probably the most absurd thing I’ve seen on here which is saying a lot.

Speculation is fine but "Hank is gutless for avoiding the start" is not a speculative statement.

 

[FIRE DRURY]

Yeaa, and then we'll make them eat their own heads!

 

[Nickmo82]

I'll be happy with another Chytil goal and not giving up 7 goals again.

I don't think that's too much to ask.

 

[duhmetreE]

Chytrick

 

[eco's bones]

Can we please beat the fish sticks for once in my thirties? It’s kind of getting ridiculous now. I’ve lost about a hundred bucks to a stagehand at work over the past 3(?) seasons.

Stop betting with him/her. Your luck might change besides which you won't have to pay the bet anymore.

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

I think Georgiev is the right move.

 

[Bob Richards]

If we win tonight I promise that I will NOT angrily protest the poor quality of my grandma's sweet potato casserole that caused an awkward rift at dinner leading to silence broken up by periods of intense hostility where I'll have a quiet car ride giving my wife's boyfriend a lift to the airport after last Thanksgiving that I'm definitely over by now.

 

[Kovalev27]

I’m sure hank is not happy he’s not playing. Prob dying to play this game. But we need a change here guys always buckle down a bit more in front of the back up goalie. This is the right move.

Having said that and like I said earlier I have zero doubt that we win this game. It’s probably the only time I’ve said that all year. And prob will be the last lol

 

[mrhockey193195]

huge game, I'll be stoked if we find a way to win it.

You are not married, a farce.

Consensus is rangers are even money to a small favorite tonight. I'm never comfortable against the Isles.

It's been mentioned in reporting many, many times over the years (including this year) that Hank does have some say in playing or not.

That being said, I assume he wants to start this one and Quinn is making the call. Idiotic to think otherwise. Hank is a lot of things, but afraid of competition is undoubtedly not one.

 

[NCRanger]

Is this one on MSG2 tonight because the biggest joke of a franchise in the history of modern professional sports is on the ROAD, and still gets priority?

Bingo. I think we have more than enough proof over the last 14 years than Hank is a psychotic level competitor and would play every game if possible. The notion that he would be afraid instead of assuming the coach is making the call is ludicrous.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

The Islanders won't see what hit them with Chytilmania on the way.

Barzal >>>>>>>>> Chytil.

Let’s not pretend like Barzal won’t embarrass all our dmen

Amazing flipping channels last night came across knicks game which I haven’t watched one in years but the place was absolutely jammed pack. I don’t get it. They’re unwatchable. Have zero star power. Yet sell out crowd to watch them.

Barzal wasn't in the NHL at 19. Who knows what Chytil does next year.

Barzal is a great player/playmaker.
