GDT: #43 - 01/13/18 | islanders @ RANGERS | 1:00 - MSG

Just play Boo and Hayes's lines, bench Staal and Kampfer, I would bench Shattenkirk and Skjei too but McDonagh and Holden cant play the whole game.

Buchnevich, arguably , the best player on ice for us today. He will be scratched next game.

 

[ZiGOODejad]

But hey least Smith is scratched right. This team has zero chance of passing the first round in the post season

 

[LeetchisGod]

Why does everyone think missing playoffs = good pick?

Most likely miss equals a middle pick that takes three years to ever make the NHL, and you see Boo Nieves

The top three picks in last year's draft all moved up from lower positions. They changed the system so that is more likely.

 

[Ori]

They are clearly out of shape after this break - they should train on thursday, but they had the day off.

 

[howztheglass]

Goes without saying but fire AV and sell, sell, sell. See what you can get for McDonagh, Lundqvist, Desharnais, Nash, Grabner, Carey, Holden, Staal, Smith...

#FallinforDahlin #KvechforSvech

I would even add Zucc to that list. Love him but if you get a good return deal him.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

They've been out of shape all season

 

[member 116805]

Why am I watching Tavares on my TV

 

[Fvital92]

I can't wait to see the "rusty" excuses.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

I forgot they had a game today. Seems like I was lucky

Funnily enough, the Rangers forgot they had a game today as well.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Any fire AV chants?

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Boo Nieves equals an entire team?

Just keep focusing on Staal.

Exactly.

 

[Ori]

I don`t looking forward to next game on sunday vs Crosby if this continue - they can barely find each other with 1 simple pass out of their own D zone.

 

[Ratelleitlikeitis]

No, he's Russian, he'll be in the press box tomorrow after the beat reporters have written that he's not making the right plays along the walls, lacks consistency and isn't playing a 200 foot game.

Doesn't matter if its true, its the coach's propaganda, so there won't be pushback.

He's snipin for sure

 

[Matt Rentfree]

I feel like every time we have a GAME we come back playing very lackadaisical

Fixed

 

[Mac n Gs]

I'm trying to laugh this off and just chalk it up to the break, but it's frustrating because this team does have talent, but they play such stupid f***ing hockey. Everyone needs to be better.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Me neither. Pitt is starting to play well and will be tied in points with us after today.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

It would be nice if they could even pretend to care about rivalry games

 

[DanielBrassard]

Just keep focusing on Staal.

Great answer pal.

[LiveLongandProspal]

I would even add Zucc to that list. Love him but if you get a good return deal him.

Yeah...I'm coming around to that also. I mean I really love Zucc (obviously), but if we can get a good package for him, we have to consider it.

 

[aufheben]

We need to fly in Lias to give Hank some backup.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Losing 5-1 sucks. Losing 5-1 to the Piles is infuriating. I really, truly hate this coach.

 

[Inferno]

thx. Henrik that his game is not 7-1. - still not sure what they are doing in their own D zone.

Literally the same thing they do in the defensive zone every game?

 

[HFsNumber1Heel]

Buch has looked very good and engaged this game.

Team overall is just bland. Too many mediocre pieces not performing.

I'm not hating or singling out Zuc I really like him, but like I said last summer, he's a 60 point player who goes missing too many games.

Shattenkirk I've given the benefit of the doubt all year but his even strength game has regressed.
