GDT: #58 - 02/06/14 | Edmonton Oilers @ New York Rangers | 7:00 - MSG

[HockeyBasedNYC]

2 points. Need them. Take them.

 

[Raspewtin]

I'll honestly be really pissed if we lose. The Oilers are bad. Very bad.

No downplaying. Choke them out like Colorado. Who fatigued or not fatigued, are a much better team.

Lets ****ing go boys.

 

[Punxrocknyc19*]

im predicting a 7-2 win.. hat trick for Hagelin. he is due to score..

 

[Inferno]

let down game in the making with pittsburgh tomorrow.

good teams win this game...bad teams look past the oils and look ahead to the pens.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

That's right good teams beat both!

Perfect day for hockey!

Let's go Rangers!!!!

 

[Kakko]

Oilers give up 2 points in 2/3 of the their games.

Failure is not an option

Success is my only mother****ing option, failure's not

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

Oh a little bit of Marshall mathers before the game I see

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

So no BR at the point on pp...he got replaced by cally

 

[Kakko]

So no BR at the point on pp...he got replaced by cally

where is this from?

and i'm assuming, it's not cally on the point

 

[Callagraves]

So no BR at the point on pp...he got replaced by cally

Where'd you get this?

Also, Cally may very well be on the powerplay, but if it's at the point, I'll eat my own shoes.

 

[ThisYearsModel]

Stepan will be on the point. Cally will be in front of the goalie.

 

[Cassano]

I expect a lot of Rangers goals.

6-3, Zuccarello with a 4 pt. night.

Callahan was put on the PP this morning, with Ryan McDonagh, Derek Stepan, Rick Nash and Chris Kreider. (Daily News)

 

[Callagraves]

Stepan will be on the point. Cally will be in front of the goalie.

...This....this disturbs me.

I like Step, but his footspeed? At the point?


EDIT: I would be surprised to see Kreids still screening the goalie. Cally, a righthander on the left hand boards, Nash, a left hander on the right hand boards. Fire away.

Sounds like Nash at the point. Team needs a center for faceoffs.

This just means we won't have Richards playing 2 mins each PP

Olympic warmup for McDonagh

Do you think Richards is faster?

 

[Callagraves]

Do you think Richards is faster?

No, but I think Richards is less likely to cough the puck up.

I'm not a huge fan of taking Richards off the PP. Maybe AV wants to put him on the 2nd unit, but that 1st unit has exactly 1 player who can even attempt a slapshot, and that's McD.


Actually, Stepan being a righty, that may be why. He and McD can feed one another for shots, and Richards and G/Stralman can do the same.

 

[5 4 Fighting]

We need to get Perron for Callahan.

 

[Callagraves]

We need to get Perron for Callahan.

Somehow, I don't see this happening.

Yea I got a feeling av is going with a different angled for the first unit

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

I think the oilers are playing well right now

Yeah, they've won one game in a row

 

[Raspewtin]

I actually don't mind Stepan on the point. Give him a chance.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Yeah, they've won one game in a row

Well i mean...
