Post-Game Talk: Bison Sword

[PuckLuck3043]

We had a shit ton of grade A chances tonight but Levi was good. What are you gonna do?

 

[Kovalev27]

I’ve never once got called for a trip as a goalie with a guy trying to deke me. And I don’t think anyone else ever has either

 

[17futurecap]

Win game 82 Florida so you get the top WC spot, if Pitt gets it, the Devils sweep them.

 

[bl02]

Kid line was good. Strong on the puck.
Tarasenko terrific.
Igor was terrific.
Gotta try to stay positive because Buffalo is a decent team that was desperate.

Unselfishness to the point of absurdity is going to be this team's undoing in the playoffs.

Fox is on my fantasy team and somehow put up not a single fantasy point despite playing 26 minutes.

That’s right, not only no goals, assists or points. No shots. No blocks. No nothing.

I do feel like he needs to do a little more. Maybe that’s unfair.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Good.

Can't imagine why people are still rooting against NJ.

We've had Carolina's number since Glen Wesley was on the team.

They're going to be limping in. They're 4-5-1 in their last 10 and are missing key players. NJ is the hotter and healthier team not considering how the Rangers match up against each team.

Feels like they're not even being encouraged to shoot.

 

[LeetchisGod]

he just isnt shooting enough imo. he will hang on to the puck until hes out of options instead of letting it rip when the other team blankets our other skaters when he has the puck.

Panarin finally figured it out. Hopefully he will too.

 

[Kovalev27]

Fox rarely controls games offensively anymore.

He’s going to be a Norris candidate lol

 

[LeetchisGod]

He’s going to be a Norris candidate lol

He may not be a finalist. Lots of competition. His second half has been noticeably worse than his first half of the season. He looks worn down to be honest.

 

[Mike in Houston]

Rough night for Miller.

 

[I Eat Crow]

He’s going to be a Norris candidate lol

But I see what he means. I get the sense he's been dealing with a nagging injury since before the All Star break. Look at his numbers before and after the All Star break. It's staggering.

 

[Machinehead]

There's nothing wrong with Fox.

He has human moments being forced to carry a defense corps that isn't that f***ing good, sorry to say.

Same reason Leetch was slightly less of a deity late in his career, although that was ten times worse.

 

[I Eat Crow]

He may not be a finalist. Lots of competition. His second half has been noticably worse than his first half of the season. He looks injured to be honest.

FYP

 

[RangerLifer]

i feel like our shootout shooters never read off each other and how the goalie is playing the breakaway. why are all of these guys trying to deke when he gave up absolutely nothing on dekes. levi was barely covering the top half of the net and no one was paying attention or all just decided what they were going to do before the shootout began.

Only guy to score in the SO was Tarasenko. He didn't deke, he just shot.

 

[Tob]

keep Lindgren out on an injury and call up someone on emergency and let him rest.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Bench Lindgren on Thursday for Harpur. And at this point, just f***ing dress 11 forwards. Kane either needs rest or a new body.

keep Lindgren out on an injury and call up someone on emergency and let him rest.

Agreed. Let Harpur play in his stead.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Calling a Harpoon goal for Wednesday. Mikkola got one, now his turn.

 

[Machinehead]

You can see from the responses of Gallant and Valiquette that nobody cared about this.

I don't think they're overly concerned about home ice. The more experienced teams generally aren't nowadays.

 

[Machinehead]

Calling a Harpoon goal for Wednesday. Mikkola got one, now his turn.

I think Harpoon already got one in that shitty Boston game where Ullmark made like 95 saves.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

This team has another gear that we haven't seen in a while.

 

[FultonReed]

2014, our highest point guy was Zuccarello. 59 points. now we have 2 with 90. it's absolutely stupid how we managed to get so far with that

 

[Machinehead]

Chytil speaks better English than Gallant lol

Why should they? They have a better away record. If they play the Devils it's going to matter even less.
