AROUND THE LEAGUE:

DECEMBER SCHEDULE:

​

QUOTES TO NOTE:​

We really won the game on the PK, not just scoring, but not letting them score.
Special teams, a lot of the games come down to that. And we won both areas, so that’s good.
- Mika Zibanejad​

Every game's not going to be perfect.
That's what makes a team good, finding a way to win games.
- Jacob Trouba​

Certainly not the way you draw up winning a game, taking that many penalties that you have to kill.
But I'm just so proud of our guys. We found a way to win and really gutted it out and stood tall on our penalty kill.
- David Quinn​

[Kaapo Cabana]

Me likey those lines if they’re for real

 

[Larrybiv]

Me likey those lines if they’re for real

I guess me too. I requested Lemieux to the 2nd line, he did me one better.
Do you all think this is MORE about making a point to Kreider.......or about Lemmy's good play.....or, just an experimentation?

I'd say Lemmy's good play.

somebody has to be slotted down for him to get promoted, and it not gonna be Panarin.

also, its not like Kreider is playing with scrubs. Chytil has been excellent, and he and Fast have played well together in the past.

 

[Deleted member 23124]

I don't see DQ breaking up Panarin and Strome....putting Kakko there certainly helps his game....so the logical choice to replace Kreider on top is Lemieux. Gives Buch and Zibby a solid grinder to fight for pucks.

 

[Larrybiv]

This should be a really fun game f9r us to watch.
Think Vegas has taken a step back and we are light years ahead of schedule.
Rangers 4, Vegas 2.
Kakko, Buch, Stromelights, and Lemieux.

Wonder how well our PK will do vs a legit PP that is ranked 8th at 21.1%.

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Subban in net? No excuse to not win this game. He sucks. Also Panarin better score 5 tonight he’s losing ground on the scoring race

 

[Fitzy]

It absolutely blows my mind that Engelland, who didn't make the NHL until 28 and was never terribly good, is still playing at 37.

And Subban is poor, yes, but that may be bad news for us given the history of this team.

 

[Leonardo87]

Keep playing like they have and they should be able to get the win tonight.

Hopefully we don’t have any players with unpaid gambling debts against Vegas.

My gameday threat to Marc Staal, Michael Haley and Brett Howden:

He designed the Titanic, which buried a lot of people.

 

[will1066]

Keep playing like they have and they should be able to get the win tonight.

Hopefully we don’t have any players with unpaid gambling debts against Vegas.

Always bet on Fox.

 

[will1066]

Expect big time games from Siegfried and Roy, Celine Dion, and Thunder from Down Under.

 

[Doctyl]

I like that teams keep starting their backups against us. Get f***ed Vegas

 

[will1066]

I like that teams keep starting their backups against us. Get ****ed Vegas

Get Tuched, Vegas.

 

[Leonardo87]

Always bet on Fox.

 

[CasusBelli]

Expect big time games from Siegfried and Roy, Celine Dion, and Thunder from Down Under.

De Niro, Pesce and Woods on for the 3v3 in OT. Sinatra with the shutout.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Subban in net? No excuse to not win this game. He sucks. Also Panarin better score 5 tonight he’s losing ground on the scoring race

Historically the Rangers have never let something like the fact that a goalie is total ass get in the way of them making him look like a Vezina winner.

I like that teams keep starting their backups against us. Get ****ed Vegas

Fleury is on personal leave from the team right now after his Dad died.

 

[will1066]

De Niro, Pesce and Woods on for the 3v3 in OT. Sinatra with the shutout.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

He designed the Titanic, which buried a lot of people.

Too soon.

 

[CasusBelli]

“It should have been so sweet, too. But in the end we screwed it all up.”

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

 

[MyLoveIsBlue]

The Knight's first line is very hard on the puck. We must be UP to the challenge.
