Around the NHL: Part XIV - Hand Pass Edition

[darko]

Not going to lie, I only have a passing interest in this year's SC finals.

Me too.

At this point just get it over and done with.

That was a real old fashioned smash mouth game, love it.

Rangers wouldn’t survive a game like that.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Rangers wouldn’t survive a game like that.

Under AV, I agree.

Last nights game was terrific. The Blues are a good story. I can't for the Draft but I am gonna enjoy this series especially if its anything like game 2.

FB just tried to clickbait me.

sponsored add from "Rangers Feed" or something like that with the title:

"Son of Rangers Fan Favorite Signed to NHL Deal"

That player? Jarred Tinordi, whose father Mark played 24 games for the Rangers 30 years ago.

To say this is a reach is quite the understatement.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Think you mean tanking. Pitt commits to tanking like no other franchise.

I meant reality.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Who cares?

Too serious ?

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Under AV, I agree.

1926-2013 NYR = Hardcore thugs

2013-2018 NYR = Soft make finals

2018-infinity NYR = Hardcore thugs 4 lyfe

 

[Bob Richards]

St. Louis or Toronto or Vancouver "breaking" our 54 year drought is pretty irrelevant to me. It still happened lol. We still are going to have 1 Cup since the London Blitz.

 

[Zibanejbread]

Good luck with that.

I was gonna disagree with the 1926-2013 analysis....but when you think about it, Kelly Kisio's smurfs would be comparable to the Broad Street Bullies compared to AV's bunch.

I'm just saying until AV and after AV, RangersTown has always been known as those tough mother "say whaaaaaaaatt? shut cho mouf" you don't want to mess with

2 minute penalty receives a 1 game suspension?

 

[LieutenantLackluster]

What?! LMAO that was barely a penalty to begin with.

 

[TheDirtyH]

yeah that was Grzelyck's fault. he put himself in the worst possible position knowing he was going to be hit but trying to make a play and avoid the hit. playoff hockey is take a hit to make a play, finish all your checks. don't like the precedent that sets.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Good luck with that.

They tried to pull a Klingberg but Zaitsev turned out to be, you know, not Klingberg

B, b, b ... Spring of 94 you hussy.

Let the record show that I have never experienced joy and I'm far too committed into the nihilism game to change now

In the first 20 or so years of the franchise, the Rangers were known as ‘hockey’s most elegant team’. Hardly thugs.

And then came AV.

I think you spend more time studying pizza than reading my posts.

I will no longer fully read your pizza blog.

When does the 19-20 schedule come out?

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

I really want Boston to lose, watching them frustrates me. Would love to see St. Louis get their first Cup, but honestly just watching the game recaps at this point. I always tune in if the Cups in the building no matter who has a chance to hoist it.

I have really been turned off with the playoffs since Dallas lost.

I find the games that Doc Emrick calls to be unwatchable. If I was a new fan tuning into the playoffs I would be turned off immediately listening to him. As a newbie trying to follow the play and puck the last thing you need is hearing a spastic high pitch shrieking over the top of it. :changes channel quickly:

Honestly dont know why so many people are in love with his call - and it has nothing to do with his history of being a Devils announcer. Thats long gone. I watch the games he calls on mute. Thats how much it bothers me and the rest of my family

When does the 19-20 schedule come out?

I think the week of the draft...6 of the last 7 years it came out june 21-25
