GDT: #36 - 12/20/13 | New York Islanders @ New York Rangers | 7:00 PM - MSG

[Boruto]

He gave up 2 goals AGAIN. How many games in a row now has he surrendered 2 goals in a few minutes?

Two breakaways. Not good. But this period isn't about Lundqvist. That's the point. It's not about Lundqvist. **** decisions and fumbles and where's the speed coming back?

 

[Kakko]

yea it wouldve been nice for hank to stop one of those but you cant expect any goalie to stop every breakaway. how about instead of blaming hank, blame the ones who allowed the breakaways.

No, but you can expect them to stop some. Especially the highest paid goalie in the world

Lol? U cant expect him to save a penalty shot and Grabner scores a bunch of shorthanded goals every season.

The team + Hank played a good period. The Islanders created NOTHING!

 

[GoAwayGiannone]

"Richards - I sentence you to death by Trautwig!"

 

[Trojanman03]

When the two guys who scored them have a combined 5 goals this year, one who hasn't scored since GM1? Not talking about Crosby and Malkin here.

Thats not the point. How about blaming the idiots in front of him that caused the breakaways? With his new contract hank is gonna be everyone's whipping boy even more than usual which i didnt think was possible lol

 

[bmoak]

Grabner averages at least 1000 breakaways a game and scores on -6 of them.

Figures that tonight he nets one.

I knew he was scoring when Sam kept bringing up how he hasn't scored since opening day.

 

[InwoodBlueNYC]

is it just me or do those look like wolfpack jerseys?

Yes that is what it said on one of th NYR blogs

 

[Boruto]

For those of you still *****ing about how much he's being paid, get over it. It's ****ing annoying.

"OMG HIGHEST PAID GOALIE IN THE WORLD LETS A GOAL IN! HIGHEST PAID!!!!"

If it comes up in a team construction and roster building context, fine. Every ****ing crack you take at our goaltender is about ****ING HIGHEST PAID GOALIE IN THE WORLD

$8.5MMMM!!!!! WOW!

 

[The Gloaming]

No, but you can expect them to stop some. Especially the highest paid goalie in the world

Which he still does.

But I'm not surprised that you and Machinehead are once again taking over the role of Snowblind in the GDT.

 

[Machinehead]

Lol? U cant expect him to save a penalty shot and Grabner scores a bunch of shorthanded goals every season.

The team + Hank played a good period. The Islanders created NOTHING!

Grabner I can understand. My cat could stop Cal Clutterbuck.

 

[Kakko]

Something sather doesnt get.

And over half this board...

 

[BlueshirtBlitz]

Hank is having an average year, sure.

I've been waiting 7 ****ing years for the rest of our players (besides Jagr and Gabby's first year) to play as good as he usually does. It doesn't happen.

If the Rangers had a competent team we wouldn't be where we are.

 

[Zucc36]

What is wrong with Nash? He must still be concussed....

 

[Raspewtin]

I'm getting real ****ing mad at Rick Nash. Looks like utter garbage.

 

[Doctyl]

No, but you can expect them to stop some. Especially the highest paid goalie in the world

he just went 4 for 5 against the penguins who even when injured still have some if the most talented shooters in the league. i think hes 6 or 7 for his last 10

 

[Machinehead]

Which he still does.

But I'm not surprised that you and Machinehead are once again taking over the role of Snowblind in the GDT.

Snowblind hates Lundqvist all the time. I just hate Lundqvist when he plays like absolute ass which has been this entire season.

 

[BB58]

What is wrong with Nash? He must still be concussed....

He is what he is. A great complementary player. He will never carry a team on his back.

 

[BlueshirtBlitz]

He is what he is. A great complimentary player.

He hasn't been a great anything in New York.

 

[LeetchisGod]

I'm getting real ****ing mad at Rick Nash. Looks like utter garbage.

Nash is a joke. He's only good as a complimentary piece on Team Canada. We're going nowhere with him as our best offensive threat.

 

[Fitzy]

He is what he is. A great complimentary player.

Everyone was telling me last year that he made Gaborik look like a complementary player and irrelevant. People couldn't get off the Nash love boat early last year.

 

[NCRanger]

Not Lundqvist's fault at all.

First one was typical Garden luck and a BS call.

Second was a lazy play on the PP.

Islanders got nothing that period other than lucky.

 

[Boruto]

What you and Machinehead don't understand is the fact that you can't throw out Lundqvist because he wants $1.0 - $1.5 million more than what he's worth and say, "Hey, we'll take this money and sign an average goalie, or let a kid whose played all of 7 games, and with the extra $3M we saved in the goaltending department, we'll spend that on a winger, even though our goaltending just downgraded.

 

[ecemleafs]

He hasn't been a great anything in New York.

he was last regular season.

 

[The Gloaming]

Snowblind hates Lundqvist all the time. I just hate Lundqvist when he plays like absolute ass which has been this entire season.

Please. Every time he gives up a goal, no matter how much the defense ****s up, there you are screaming about his contact.

 

[Fitzy]

I will say again, if Hank thinks, and comes out to play the puck away, there is no first goal. Second time in as many weeks.
