Sit down Hughes

 

[RangerLifer]

Jersey getting bumped around. They're not used to it. LOL

 

[FultonReed]

Simply The Best came on at work, I wanna throw myself through a wall

This is still like 50% of the pace of Sea-Dal last night

This is still like 50% of the pace of Sea-Dal last night

I couldn’t believe the speed and pace of that game. Unbelievable.

 

[Boris Zubov]

He is one of their heart and soul guys and sure plays like it.

Believe he went unclaimed on waivers. How much would've he helped our fourth line. Sucks we had no cap space because this league has the budget of college kids on spring break.

Are the roids affecting Rod's voice?

Vitek's groin almost broke

 

[NYR94]

Calder finalists: Beniers, Power, Skinner

 

[bl02]

Even Stepan winning puck battle deep in zone.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

I love that Slewban Jumblow Joe Thornton commercial where they’re looking for a Stanley Cup

 

[Boris Zubov]

Calder finalists: Beniers, Power, Skinner

Jeff Skinner did have a heck of a year.

 

[will1066]

Close

 

[Leonardo87]

Aho pulled a Strome?

 

[I Eat Crow]

Carolina the real, the Rangers the jabroni

Just like last series, the Devils will adjust. Carolina isn't going to win this series handily.

 

[will1066]

They don't even have Svech

 

[mike14]

we're probably in the bottom 1/3rd of the league in every advanced metric

We're opportunistic... we're no where near a good 5v5 team .

It's mind blowing how you could watch the New York Rangers and then come with GF to say they're good. MIND BLOWING

I never said good...
I would argue that over a season, goals scored 5v5 is probably the best metric to use when judging 5v5, but that's neither here nor there.
But based on goals scored 5v5 in the 22/23 season, if we weren't 'good' at it, then 7 or less teams were

 

[RangerLifer]

I admire how the Canes' offense can suddenly turn a great scoring chance out of nothing.

 

[ajdj10]

They don't even have Svech

We didn't have forwards though.

 

[LeetchisGod]

They don't even have Svech

or Tevo or Pacioretty.

 

[Synergy27]

They don't even have Svech

Or Patches. Or Teravainen.

I’ll be shocked if they pull this series out with that IL but the Canes matchup with the Devils like the Devils matchup with us.

Spam the net with bodies and pucks. It ain’t hard.

 

[Kords]

Dude stayed down on the ice like he was dieing. Stick might of clipped him, but the embellishment is a joke from this team.

I forgot about them

 

[nevesis]

Hughes is such a whiney bitch.

 

[Leonardo87]

lol, my bad, he really did get high sticked.
