[TJHKY]

 

[EdJovanovski]

Howden own goals (49)
Kakkos (6)

[Leonardo87]

Big game tonight, really need a win! Let’s go!!!

 

[will1066]

Expect big time performances by Lance Burton, Cirque du Soleil and Thunder from Down Under.

 

[JimmyG89]

Could be the last game for a little while, hopefully the can come out with a win:

They either have to pause, or ease it so VACCINATED players showing no symptoms can play.

Or play without fans

I realize I just suggested two vastly different things but

The current set up doesn't make sense where we have players who are positive not playing while we have ~18K in the stands who may or may not be vaccinated and may or may not have covid

it just doesn't make logical sense right now

 

[duhmetreE]

might be one of the greatest videos of 2021

major props to AJ Castiglia

because money!

but at this point the vaccine is basically useless in stopping spread of omicron. However, it looks to be much less severe.

There are also studies showing people who caught covid after being vaccinated are now “super immune”. So basically, the NHL should treat this like the flu. If u have no symptoms or feel ok u can play, if u are really sick, sit out.

Basically we are all going to catch this crap one way or another. So lets just get it over with.

im done with stopping normalcy for this.

The vaccine is not useless.

It prevents these infections from becoming severe or deadly

The vaccine is working very well

But I am starting to believe that if you are vaccinated and feeling well, you should be able to play. As long as they allow fans in the stands, its silly to stop the players from playing.

Re-read what i wrote. I said it was useless in stopping the spread of infection.

it is useful in making it less severe. Which i also said.

I think he meant in regards to spreading it, it makes the symptoms less severe but the vaccine doesn't stop the spread of it

We should drop this topic though, it has been cordial so far so lets stop while we're ahead before we turn the GDT into a Covid thread

 

[Thirty One]

Go Rangers IMO

 

[Ruggs225]

Are these lines confirmed for us?

 

[duhmetreE]

Kreider Zibs Kakko
Laffy Strome Hunt
Chytil Goodrow Gauthier
McKegg Rooney Reaves

 

[Ruggs225]

Any word if Lundkvist will be back?

 

[mrmovies779]

Any lineup that has Mckegg and Nemeth in it makes me a sad panda

 

[Crease]

Go Rangers IMO

Terrible take.

 

[SA16]

Could be the last game for a little while, hopefully the can come out with a win:

This is a bit of a misleading tweet. It's like when they say a player has a season ending injury when he gets hurt with two games left. True, yes, but doesn't tell you the severity. Christmas Eve is next Friday. After they assess after this weekend but before Christmas and decide to pause each team will have...one game postponed?

 

[LORDE]

Expect big time performances by Lance Burton, Cirque du Soleil and Thunder from Down Under.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Goal and an assist for Chytil

He responds well to demotions, unlike some other youngster who should be in the top 9 right now

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Kreider Zibs Kakko
Laffy Strome Hunt
Chytil Goodrow Gauthier
McKegg Rooney Reaves

Kegstand AGAIN?
