[GraveyTrain9]

not sure if Rangers are playing great hockey or if the Oilers are just very very very very very bad

 

[StepansLabyrinth]

Is it me or has Diaz played better than Moore has all season???

Yes, but that's less of a statement on Moore than it is on Diaz, who's fit in immediately and looked pretty damn good for us. No Dan Girardi on defense but the most effective offensive defenseman we've had in awhile.

Carcillo experiment is surviving Day 1 against an AHL squad.

 

[Doctyl]

We really dodged a bullet by losing out on Eakins huh.

To think most of our board wanted him

 

[clmetsfan]

Haven't seen the game.

How does the team look in comparison to the game against the Flames? Good bounce back game?

Very much so.

How has Talbot looked? Has he had to come up with tough saves? Cool as a cucumber?

Hasn't really been tested. Vintage Talbot game from earlier in the season, when the team played superbly in front of him.

Is Nash's goal scoring indicative of his effort and overall level of play this game?

Bunch of lucky goals from a lazy player.

Has St. Louis been noticeable? Is he at least creating high quality chances?

Meh. He had a couple good shots that Scrivens made good saves on, but overall it's been a pretty forgettable game for him.

Do McDonagh and Girardi look back to normal after a bad game in Calgary

Yeah, definitely.

Can't believe I was one of those that advocated signing Eakins

 

[LeetchisGod]

It's not you. He's simply a better player at this juncture.

#TeamAV from day 1

 

[Nyrvana]

How will he score a shorthanded hat trick?

Theo Fleury was the only player to score a hat trick on all SHGs, but I'm not sure what team he was on then.

He was on the Flames at the time. It happened it 1991 against the Blues.

Forget surviving, it's thriving

 

[Riverdale]

Good either way.

How many times do we have to watch the Rangers play down to the lvl of lesser teams? Good for them to be beating a team they SHOULD beat.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

Richards doing everything in his power to get MSL that goal which means Marty will never score for this club.

Edmonton's DJ is like a decade behind. lol

Twitter was founded exactly 8 years ago, March 2006. That means no Oilers fan has ever tweeted that their team made the play offs.

#TeamAV from day 1

Wish I could say that...I'm ashamed to admit that I was intrigues by Eakins. After he signed I hopped on the AV bandwagon though

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

I was never on the Eakins bandwagon because I simply did not know who the guy was

 

[GFiP*]

4-4 right now with lundqvist playing

 

[One Winged Angel]

Not you. Diaz should stay in.

I really desperately want to see a live jersey toss. Please oblige!!!!

I think so.

He's played way too well and moves the puck FAR better than Moore does. Moore can skate the puck out, but he often does too much stupid **** that leads to turnovers when doing that.

I like the outlet pass Diaz makes.

 

[Pizza]

This a get back kinda game. Just go out and beat the crap out of an opponent. Guys like Nash and MSL that have been having problems need to swarm.

 

[Fataldogg]

Very much so.

Yeah, definitely.

Thank you for that informative update! Now I know how the game went heading into the third.

Very good bounce back game. Completely overwhelming Edmonton.

Talbot hasn't had much work but he's solid.

Nash has been very noticeable and working hard.

St. Louis has looked good. If he wasn't in such a drought people wouldn't be harping on the no goals, but saying how noticeable he is. He's had good chances and created some.

McD and Girardi look back to normal.

 

[Doctyl]

4-4 right now with lundqvist playing

Can't tell if serious

If so, the guy isn't even playing and is still getting ripped by these boards despite playing stellar hockey since January 1st

 

[GraveyTrain9]

I'm really impressed by Diaz… seems to be a great skater

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

4-4 right now with lundqvist playing

You think he'd stopped those other 12 shots?

Lundqvist was bad against Calgary, true. But he's still the best goalie in the NHL. Talbot as a back-up is a blessing
