GDT: #23 - 11/27/19 | hurricanes @ RANGERS | 7:00 - MSG

Ya, offensively it's like having 5 mcd's..

Better on O back there than we've been since I've been an adult.

After suffering through inept offense on D for years and years, we're here now, at the beginning.

The D will develop, the defensive D that is.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Possibly true for 13 of those years, but compared to the last two it gets very debatable. And that's if we ignore that we're 1st or 2nd in points contribution from defensemen this year.

Agree.

I meant on average.

Fox is looking like the steal of the decade.

McD trade on 1980's steroids.

A pretty big factor in the Rangers defensive issues is coming from the forwards. That'll improve.

 

[ThirdEye]

Going to be a tough one. Carolina won't struggle against us forever

 

[Siddi]

Mika is back!

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Panarin-Boo-Kakko

make it happen.

 

[CasusBelli]

Expect big time games from Arturs Irbe, Ron Francis, Bret Hedican, and Glen Wesley

Matt Cullen hat trick and Ozolinsh PPG.

Depends on which Mrazek we get tonight.

 

[Vitto79]

hope this is right. still can';t believe Smith doesnt just spare and play Gettinger.

PANARIN | STROME | KAKKO
KREIDER (A) | ZIBANEJAD (A) | BUCHNEVICH
LEMIEUX | HOWDEN | CHYTIL
SMITH | NIEVES | FAST (A)

 

[Leonardo87]

Not surprised Quinn is going with KZB. They have had success in the past. With Panarin and Strome on the other line, actually have two good scoring lines. Wouldn’t mind seeing Kakko moved up with Panarin and Strome.

 

[aufheben]

KZB, Panarin 2LW, Chytil C...wanted to see this all season.

 

[Machinehead]

An official statement from Rangers staff on the Zibanejad injury:

 

[Machinehead]

Chytil at wing and Fast on the 4th line to accommodate Howden.

Sounds about Quinn.

 

[Leonardo87]

An official statement from Rangers staff on the Zibanejad injury:

 

[ZiGOODejad]

Why is Chytil on wing with Howden at center.....

 

[MrazeksVengeance]

It is no secret that I sort of like you guys.

BUT TONIGHT,
I WISH YOU NOTHING BUT SORROW AND PAIN.

I HOPE THE FEELING IS MUTUAL.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Chytil at wing and Fast on the 4th line to accommodate Howden.

Sounds about Quinn.

Is this confirmed?

If so, wtf Quinn? Howden has looked better ever since Lias got sent down, I guess a wake up call to him, but Chytil has been so much better than him and it's not particularly close.

 

[EdJovanovski]

I have a hunch Mika might just skate out with a C on his jersey tonight

 

[Machinehead]

I have a hunch Mika might just skate out with a C on his jersey tonight

C for concussion?

 

[EdJovanovski]

 

[MetalJaws]

Howden is the worst. Flops all around, always blindly throwing the puck in the offensive zone. Doesn't even look for a winger. Shows little to no offensive talent. Can't carry the puck at all. Has no awareness or Offensive IQ. Zero creativity. Can't win a board battle to save his life. Should be a 4th line center for life, if any GM in the league thinks he has value, move him.

Gain the line! Dump and chase!

 

[Fataldogg]

Lundqvist is going to get the Hurricanes and Bruins. Georgiev is going to get the Devils... for the third time.

If you can only start against lottery teams, you are not a good back up.

Why isnt Shesterkin given a chance? Georgiev has nothing that screams franchise goalie to me.

Maybe, maybe not. It's hard to determine if Georgiev is a franchise goalie with this defensive structure.
