Post-Game Talk: avs @ NYR

[ReggieDunlop68]

So like every team whose coach has been there for at least a year...

Yup.

No matter how bad a team really is, every hire renney will eventually lead to a FIRE RENNEY!

 

[Gardner McKay]

speaking of russians i would think Rykov is coming up if Lindgren misses any games, no?

How has he been in the AHL? I haven't really paid attention.

 

[NYRangers0723]

I give Milbury 2/5 revolted Buch's

Milbury pulls this crap every time he does a Ranger game. He picks on a certain guy for no reason. I know many find Pierre annoying but Milbury is just a POS

 

[Tob]

Igor’s rebound control and lateral movements are to die for.

Very refreshing after watching HONK Lundswiss flail all season long.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

I wonder how Henrik felt about the crowd chanting Igor's name... Long anticipated arrival of the heir apparent

This is the type of thing I think fans would care about more than the players. Especially Lundqvist, I think he is pretty secure in how Rangers fans feel about him.

It is funny though watching Igor come out after being so anticipated. When Hank debuted it was kind of out of nowhere mainly bc it was harder to follow players overseas back then as opposed to now where even causal fans have been hearing about “that Russian kid, he’s the next Lundqvist” for 6 years now.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

for everyone hating on Quinn, the Avs board apparently thinks their coach is a feckless moron too

I feel like this is a trend.

There’s nothing more annoying than people complaining about others complaining

Find a new slant

Great comeback, battled back, Igor looked confident and NHL ready for the most part. The team played really hard around him, though.

 

[bl02]

Shesterkin the iceman. After giving up 2 goals against a dynamite offense settled down big time.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Don't understand how anyone could NOT love this guy. I understand not wanting to over-pay for him, but still, the guy is a perfect bottom six player.

Problem is he is rarely on the bottom 6 where he needs to be.

 

[SML2]

A Czar is born!

 

[bbny]

Poor Fast. Three assists and played a very effective game. No love.

Panarin, Strome, Fast. H.M.: Igor

 

[Fitzy]

You talking about Zherdev? Or are you going all the way back to Bure?

Bure lol. Did not care for Zherdev much.

Leetch, Bure, Lundqvist, Gaborik, and Zibanejad have been the jerseys I've owned since 95.

Find a new slant

complaining about coaches is a god given right fans have like free ketchup and salt packets at fast food restaurants.

 

[CasusBelli]

Where’s my gal?

 

[Rempe73]

Don't understand how anyone could NOT love this guy. I understand not wanting to over-pay for him, but still, the guy is a perfect bottom six player.

The overpayment is the main issue. Maybe 2-2.5 mil max I would pay.

 

[haveandare]

So like every team whose coach has been there for at least a year...

Yup.

Earlier today I saw Preds fans complaining about how Laviolette with the same stuff people say here, then came here and saw people begging Gorton to fire Quinn and hire Laviolette.

 

[n8]

Alright, get Doug Wilson on the phone stat, I have an Alexandar Georgiev I think he might be interested in.

Nice first game from Igor, once he settled in he looked very comfortable.


Panarin rules.

Can't say that anyone in the Shark's system remotely interests me. Pretty much just their 1st round pick but I don't imagine Georgiev fetching that high of a price unless Wilson is dealing out of desperation.

 

[bl02]

It's good to see them get a good result especially after painful losses to Calgary and Vancouver

 

[Bob Richards]

Goals. Suspense. A king meeting his heir in a Czar. Greg McKegg.

This game had everything.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

I believe that’s from when Hayes kicked him with the skate

Yup: See this NHL season's gnarliest scars - and hear the stories behind them

 

[Kakko]

Skjei has a huge scar on his left jaw. Never noticed that

I think the official criteria for being a veteran in the league is a facial scar or having had a few teeth replaced

 

[bl02]

f***ing NBCS games they couldn't even stay to see the three stars???
Anyone know the three starts? thanks

 

[SML2]

Apparently Smith is doing so well as a forward that we were down to 5D when Lindgren went out.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Also, f*** Milbury. What the f*** was that with 6-7 minutes to go where he/the NBCSN producer were like “okay, now, apropos of absolutely nothing, Mike is gonna shit on Buchnevich and Shesterkin?”

LOVE the fact that, thereafter, the two names I heard Forslund say the most often other than Panarin were Buchnevich and Shesterkin.

 

[Whoot Whoot]

Dude keeps his glove hand so vertical - haven't seen that in ages.
