Kakko looks like he's hustling more and he's constantly looking around him to track the play.

 

[RGY]

They had all the momentum and then the 4th line goes out, gets pinned, and the momentum disappears.

Another fine display of defense from Trouba

Like crossing Herald Square without looking first.

 

[JRinNYC]

We got lucky there! Thought that went in.

Washington Square >>>

 

[RGY]

Team defense is a sick joke

Signed up for barre and spinning at Equinox.

True, though originally the flexibility of Smith being able to move back and forth during a game was played up.

I know, but in a few cases it hasn't been happened so at this point that was maybe more wishful thinking

Maybe FWD is harder for Smith and he has to devote all his time to it. Probably the case.

Could have brought back big game brass for a few bucks more over Haley/McKegg who were never going to be good enough defensive to carve out a role and yet have no offensive skills

 

[Kovalev27]

Just a bad read by Trouba thought he could get it around. Ugh

Chytil is our best defensive center already at 20.

almost just walked in there for a chance.

Georgiev eeeeeah got very lucky there. Not loving his game tonight

 

[SnowblindNYR]

No goalie on this team can control a rebound.

 

[aufheben]

Zibanejad hasn’t looked amazing to me.

 

[CasusBelli]

Washington Square >>>

And it’s not like you can use the cute NYU girls as an excuse.

Sharks have a very weird bad-aggro forecheck that will visibly get chewed up by good puck moving teams

Bad news: this is not a good puck moving team

 

[Kovalev27]

I need a ton more from Mika.

McKegg is so underwhelming. He's pretty fast, seems to have some skill. But something is sabotaging him.

 

[CasusBelli]

No goalie on this team can control a rebound.

Seems like Allaire teaches them to “kick out” rather than “eat up” pucks. It’s not necessarily wrong — but it can be risky if your teammates aren’t there to recover the puck.

It was a different year because we went to the Cup finals in 2014. That 10-1 game was in 2013.

It was October of 2013, the season we went to the cup.

The hell I can't, I don't work at that one

My in-laws surprised me on wedding day with a NY Rangers groom cake.

Geez McKegg...just get a stick
