GDT: #4 - 10/17/19 | RANGERS @ devils | 7:00 - NBCSN

I'd trade buch for a late 1st and give Patrick sharp a call to come out of the broadcast booth to play with zibs and breadman

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

As if Kakko is never going to see the PP1 in his entire career here.

Buchnevich is probably playing himself off of it anyway as we speak.

I guess it really shows that the Rangers haven’t gotten to draft a player like this, because he’s being handled like most 1/2OA’s get handled and the whole fan base is acting like it’s blasphamy

 

[Machinehead]

He did 3 horrifyingly stupid or bad plays. It's gaslighting to suggest otherwise.

It's gaslighting to suggest there's not 9 forwards on this team worse than him.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Zibanejad wasn't even on the ice when the goal was scored and Panarin wasn't involved at all.

Panarin made the pass to Skjei which lead to the rebound.

 

[aufheben]

Don't get why Strome has almost 2 more minutes of ice time compared to Kakko who only has 3.

Well at least a minute of that was PP & 4v4 time.

 

[Chalfdiggity3]

Didn't say it was an amazing play but he's in the 1st period of his 4th game and he has 4 points.

And again, people are acting like he killed someone.

It's not that he shot Kennedy from the bushes. It's that he sucks. That line needs a player who can play the boards and in front of the net and well buch cant do anything well. Lol

He's just played poorly. You said you "saw his assist", which would imply that you thought it was a great play considering the context you said it in. If you didn't, you'd have pointed out a better play.

And I mean, you're making a point of him having a lot of points in spite of being the lowest-scoring member of his line.

 

[Mandar]

You couldn't get a first for him in the KHL

Who made a noteworthy play in that period?

 

[bl02]

Zibanejad wasn't even on the ice when the goal was scored and Panarin wasn't involved at all.

Panarin and before that Lias made that goal happen

 

[effen]

It's gaslighting to suggest there's not 9 forwards on this team worse than him.

He's the only one of them on the 1st line doing mind numbingly boneheaded things.

 

[Tawnos]

This team looks rusty. I can’t figure out why though.

 

[Chalfdiggity3]

You couldn't get a first for him in the KHL

I'm hoping other teams haven't seen what he truly is yet and we can get something from the wild or the jets or the Canadiens or the sens or some poorly run franchise

 

[aufheben]

Sure and they seem to do it just fine, but that 1st line would be way better if it was 3headed monster instead of 2. He could be best option for 1st line for all I know, but if that is the case then you guys are in trouble

Top-loading isn't always the most effective option in a sport where they'll only play at most 1/3 of the game.

 

[Machinehead]

He's the only one of them on the 1st line doing mind numbingly boneheaded things.

People are just looking for him to do boneheaded things because they want Kakko playing 25 minutes.

 

[aufheben]

Who made a noteworthy play in that period?

Andersson for one.

 

[Tawnos]

By the way, that goal was a 5 man effort. Anyone saying otherwise just has an agenda.

 

[NYR]

How long until HF starts calling the bread man, bread crumb?

 

[Chalfdiggity3]

Top-loading isn't always the most effective option in a sport where they'll only play at most 1/3 of the game.

which is why I'd put a player who can bang, play the boards and in front of the net with them.. say lemieux or krieder

 

[ijuka]

People are just looking for him to do boneheaded things because they want Kakko playing 25 minutes.

They don't need to look for him to do boneheaded plays, he does them on his own. This is some "if no one was there to see it, did the tree really fall?"-type arguing.

And on advanced stats, as an advanced stat guy I'd have thought that you'd know that 1 game stats are completely meaningless.

 

[effen]

People are just looking for him to do boneheaded things because they want Kakko playing 25 minutes.

I have no dog in this fight, and don't really care *that* much about Kakko yet.

He did 3 REALLY REALLY egregiously bad things dood.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

I swear, if I ever hear Pierre use the word "penetrate" like that again, I'll wake up screaming every night till I die.

 

[DoubleGold]

Can someone explain to me why Pierre still manages to have a job? He's so clueless and awkward.

 

[Machinehead]

Buch leading the league in egregiously bad things per 60.

 

[Barkkonen]

Fair enough, just observing here, not many rangers games under my belt.
