Around the NHL: Part XXXII

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Edmonton did a good job taking that game last night. They needed that big time.

How about Vancouver beating the “machine” Toronto Maple Leafs in back to back games without Pettersson. I am sure TOR fans have now flipped their script of Stanley Cup is ours to our team f***ing sucks again.

No, their new schtick is 'The North is actually a really strong division you guys!"

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Any chance Buffalo does everyone a favor against the Fishies today on the island? I mean... they can't just always lose?

more likely get outshot 50-10 and lose by at least 4

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Is the offense so successful because the defense sucks, or is the defense unsuccessful because the offense is great? With all divisions operating in vacuum, it's hard to tell for sure

 

[SnowblindNYR]

The Sabres are so bad I'm disappointed we only beat them 3-2.

Eichel will never stay and see this dumpster fire through

That was one of our worst performances of the season.

In other news Wahlstrom can’t stop gettin points fire Clarke

 

[AWall THE CLAW]

Buffalo completely mailing it in today. Oof.

You wanna know how to ruin prospects look at Buffalo.
Losing culture. Dahlin making JJ look like Lidstrom in his prime

 

[LokiDog]

Buffalo is one of the sorriest franchise’s out there. They have a good history, good market, good fans and just a completely dysfunctional and terribly ran team. If I were any player on that roster I’d want out ASAP.

This is what a lot of people wanted us to do to our team instead of trying to win hockey games. Video game mentality.

 

[LOFIN]

Pretty much sums it up for Buffalo.

 

[NYSPORTS]

Eichel will never stay and see this dumpster fire through

he’s under contract so not sure what he can do.

 

[NYSPORTS]

Rangers could have drafted Casey Mittelstadt who has quite a highlight reel

 

[NYSPORTS]

And what if the Rangers called Buffalo and said

Krav and Panarin for Eichel? (Never mind the NTC)

Team has a lot of wingers and Eichel, Chytil (maybe a healthy Zibby) is still a lot flanked by Laf, Kakko, Buch, Kredier, etc.

 

[Raspewtin]

Buffalos fans are so obnoxious in the main boards that i actively root for them to fail

The best player in the trade goes to Buffalo plus you add something additional? No.

Skinner with a pretty goal on the Island

How can a fan of that team be obnoxious?

Defense mechanism because they know Eichel finna dip any minute now

 

[will1066]

Buffalo comeback initiated

 

[will1066]

Buffalo comeback canceled

I hate Clutterbuck, but damn, he knows how to finish

When you're a crack addict on your last hit, things get pretty aggressive behind the dump. They need Eichel and Reinhart to return astronomical value to immediately complete their rebuild. Not like the Canucks who took 6 years of drafting to eek out a small core or the Rangers who sold Stepan, Hayes, Zucc, Nash, Miller, Vesey, Grabner, Raanta, Skjei, McDonagh, and Pionk over 3 years to build a core. Fans have so little faith in the Pegulas and Adams they need Rob Blake or Jeff Gorton just to give them Byfield, Turcotte, Chytil, Kravtsov, Kakko plus a few middle 6 players for Reinhart and Eichel.

not thrilled with the offering yet the center is 24 years and the cost is less. With the Rangers having so many wings i’m wondering if sending one or two is better than sending more or anybody named Laf or Kakko.

Still better than Lias as sad as that is

point is we wasn’t the miss some had made him out to be . . . so far.
