[Kakko]

[Crease]

Can't go 81-1 unless you lose 1.

 

[Tob]

Buchnevich is done. He doesn't stop falling down all game. He's skates like he's strolling up to Golden Gate bridge to kill himself. There's just skill and nothing else useful about him.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

At least Kakko scored.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Kappy with his first goal and a highlight goal...i call that a win in my books.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

The Oilers are good... and it only took the better part of two decades.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Bad game but the schedule isn't doing them any favors.

 

[Machinehead]

Folks, this is the Rangers when Zibanejad doesn't score 4 points.

 

[will1066]

Not going 82-0-0

 

[SnowblindNYR]

As pissed as I am, I can't wait to read about how this is the worst team ever assembled because we lost a game.

 

[AlaBlueShirt]

Lmao trade buch he been ass since he arrived here
His hockey iq is eq to his shoe size

You deserve to lose playing uninspired hockey like that. Smith barely tested. Never saw DeAngelo look that bad.

They have very little depth. Any major injuries and they're in big trouble.

 

[Tob]

Gorton just waltzed into this season with Strome as the 2C and ????????????? on the bottom 6. Kreider is useless without a good center. Fast's offense has vanished since he got married. All the rookies and 2nd year players are too raw to make the bottom 6 work by themselves.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Can we please switch up the lines a bit?

 

[Svenhart2008]

That was disappointing.

Playoff bound in April, IMO.

Tippett was a great hire for their team structure and personnel. Smith was a really solid signing for them. First competent NHL goalie they've had since 1.5 years of Cam Talbot.

Sometimes I wonder does he go for a stroll like that because he's afraid of contact or does he actually think he's that skilled he can get away playing at that tempo?

 

[Mandar]

Does Kreider's play remind anyone of how Zucc started last year? Coincidence?

 

[Kovalev27]

We missed the net so many times. Panarin at least 4 or 5 different one times he missed the net. Nothing went right here and no one should be surprised. Not playing for a week will do that. Now another week off. Awesome

 

[2Leetch_94]

Another 4 days to stew in this craptastic game. Neat.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

3 stars of the game:

Kakko because of the goal
Panarin because of that amazing defensive play on the 2-on-0
Lias I guess, because he was more noticeable than Howden and Strome despite playing 7 minutes

There's a reason he was on the block this past summer. He's not going to be worth his next contract.

 

[Kovalev27]

sensitive guy too. Thoughtful guy. I’m not surprised if he takes this the way Zucc did. Which again is why Gorton should have made decisions this summer instead of letting this continue

Not sure if I'm sold on Smith (besides his puck handling ability) but they collectively are playing with structure.
