Oh look stupid Skjei strikes again.

BENCH THIS IDIOT

Better yet, trade him.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I've never seen a high stick like that.

BENCH THIS IDIOT

Quinn did last game. So we shall see.

 

[Fitzy]

A fun counterfactual to be discussed over the decade...

NYR lose the Kakko lottery, but Pettersson falls to them in 2017 and they pick him instead of Andersson. Do you take it?

 

[Machinehead]

So like, why does Smith play forward anyway?

He's not a particularly good at it and this is not a team with six NHL defensemen.

 

[Leonardo87]

Really would love a Fox goal tonight to add to his 5 assists from the last two games.

He had like 6 good games there last year and at the beginning of this year.

After that, with all the roster shifting, I don't know. He can't skate at either position. I'd rather have Beleskey there and Smith in the AHL.

 

[Leonardo87]

You couldn’t pay me to wear that suit. Sorry.

Absolutely. 100%. Pettersson is more of a sure thing, has more upside (imo), and is a center.

Pay millions to an interior decorator maybe u keep him ‘in case’ he has a decent idea?

I want 3 more assists instead. Funny how that works. I value (primary) assists more.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Send McKegg to the ECHL.

 

[Leonardo87]

Yeah that would work also. But the kid has a nice shot. So would expect some more goals from him also.

 

[Machinehead]

Boy howdy.

I would say McKegg is one of the most useless players I've ever seen but that's run of the mill on the Rangers.

 

[Chaels Arms]

What did McKegg do wrong there

 

[SnowblindNYR]

This might be the 2nd time I've ever seen a faceoff violation call.

 

[Fitzy]

I'd like a system where an important turnover-causing hit or goalie screen has more weight than a casual secondary pass in terms of assists.

 

[LeetchisGod]

These officials are a disgrace.

 

[Krams]

Lmfao throwback to preseason '17

 

[LieutenantLackluster]

Whats the penalty?

 

[Whoot Whoot]

garbage power trip linesman call

 

[Chaels Arms]

This might be the 2nd time I've ever seen a faceoff violation call.

Was just thinking this is the first time I've seen it actually happen

 

[mike14]

We always manage to come up with interesting ways to take penalties

 

[turcotte8]

It's a penalty for the Rangers to win a faceoff.

 

[Machinehead]

Fast stopped to get a PhD in International Politics before putting the puck on net
