Zucc for 60!

Being one goal away from a 20 goal season and one point away from a 60 point season, at least Zucc ought to have personal motivation for playing well tonight.

Objectively it doesn't make a lot of difference as an evaluation of his actual performance this year, but I guess both of those numbers are used as yardsticks when you're doing career stats and/or negotiating contracts.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Yes. I second that.

Go Rangers. With a win tonight, who are we most likely to meet in the first round?

Regardless of our result, we finish 2nd. No team can catch us but it's between Philly and Columbus who will finish 3rd and play us

 

[silverfish]

Play Haggerty, Falk, Carcillo.

Sit as many people as we can.

TalBOT in goal.

It's going to be SO nice watching a game that doesn't mean anything

 

[Vitto79]

Talbot's in for sure? or are they gonna let Hank try and break his streak at the Bell Centre?

If say it's talbot 2nite. Rest hank up

W a clb loss is it not philly?

Columbus can still pass Philadelphia. They're tied in points, but Philadelphia has a game in hand. The odds are against Columbus, but it's not over quite yet.

Wasn't sure where to post this, but I feel like this is as good of a place to post this since we're playing the Habs. This thread is amazing. People were calling Sather a genius BEFORE they found out about McDonagh.

I go to that thread on the Montreal side of things every time I need a good laugh.

 

[Stasis]

Debating if I try to get last minute tickets with a buddy. I'll be in the city all day, finishing at 6pm and I'm very close to the Bell Center. Walkable. Hmmmm.

It's gonna be pricey as ******* though. It's either that or just go watch it with a bunch of buddies who are all Habs fans. Either way, both options are unpleasant when we lose but oh so satisfying if we win.

My guess is that he couldnt bare to see fatso with another team, and didnt want to cry on air about it.

 

[Blueshirt Special]

I love reading the McD people saying how awesome he is. So cool and good on them for knowing.

"Mcdonagh is a great prospect. Ridiculous that we got him to. I must be dreaming right now."

Sather really ****ed Gainey on that deal. IMO it's probably the Rangers biggest win since the Messier deal. Still don't know what Gainey was thinking but IMO it did a lot to lose him his job. For an equivalent bad deal for us in Rangers history there's Rick Middleton for Ken Hodge.

 

[GAGLine]

that thread is hysterical

So happy the trade for Heatley never happened. Some of the proposals in that thread are scary bad.

 

[Doctyl]

Where's Winnie?

 

[Holocene]

Where's Winnie?

Resting and getting ready for the playoffs?

 

[aufheben]

Winnie is dying a slow death due to pollen allergies.

Chico and Marty both gone from the Devils?

Wow, i think I'm going to throw a party. For real.

Or anyone for Heatley, I've been thinking that too.

It's sad because Chico is a great guy to talk hockey with. Guy is an absolute gentlemen and loves the game as much as anyone.

I won't miss hearing his biased responses during games but if you guys had the pleasure of meeting him in person you would have a little more respect for him.

He's an awesome guy. He came and did a talk at my school once when I was in 4/5th grade. Something about, Idk, hockey, or something.

But I'm so glad he's retired.

 

[TeamStewie]

As bad as Chico was I can only imagine the Devils broadcasts getting even worse without him. At least he was good for the occasional laugh. I suppose they will probably replace him with that old drunk Daneyko.

Yeah, oh good god that would've been yuckkkkkkk.

shark staal -

McDonagh is a very good prospect, who IMO is better than Sanguinetti.

Pierre said he believes Valentenki could come over as soon as next season. Very gritty defensive defenseman.

Higgins is like a bigger version of Callahan, and will be re-signed.

I agree! lol

 

[SnowblindNYR]

The funniest response in that thread was by a Habs fan who wrote "I want to ****ing die" BEFORE he knew about McDonagh.

 

[nasmis]

This guy had the trade at #5 on his list over a year ago. With McD earning MVP, player's player award and being talked of as Norris candidate this year I his guess his worst fears are materializing.
