Post-Game Talk: Bison

[Shesterkybomb]

Is it too late to trade Laf for a 2nd rounder now? I feel like we missed our window and may have to settle for a 3rd and a B prospect.

Haven't you heard, he is gonna have to do a PTO after this contract if we don't trade him for a can of Zoodles.

Not enough love for Cuylle in this thread. Was the best player on what was a very effective line.

Also hit a max of 21 MPH getting up the ice. The "he is slow" meme should be dead.

Gawd that 1-3-1 scheme was great.

Well that flat out sucks. I'm a beefaroni man.

He had like 4 takeaways in the first period alone. I think he and Wheeler are going to be huge cyclers

I’m wary of the 10-20 game rookie let down when the grind sets in and the adrenaline of making the NHL wears off

But happy if Cuylle can hang on, looked solid tonight

Who said he was slow? lol
Plus for his size he definitely is NOT slow.

Did we win

No one answered me

Oh there were several people saying this in the offseason.

There was a lot to like tonight.

The biggest thing is that the team played like a team and within the system. That was what we were waiting on for a long time.

Fox was shooting the puck on the power play. We’ve been saying for a while that we need different looks on the power play. If we can get a Fox/Panarin to Kreider lane going, the opposing PK won’t be able to sit on Zibanejad’s one timer so much. I disagree with what Sam and Joe were saying about Kreider not getting enough looks/touches on the PP last year. He got plenty but they wouldn’t go in. He reverted hard to the mean after everything seemed to go in for him two years ago.

The Panarin-Chytil-Laf line looked great. Chytil had a bit of a rough game. Panarin and Lafreniere looked more engaged than last year.

Cuylle looked like he was exactly where he was supposed to be: on the LW of a third line of an NHL team.

I read every page just to look for this. He was the best player on his line from eye test.

5-1 rangers

Yay

Oh sorry I didn’t think you were serious, lol

 

[gimbznyr]

The boys looked really really good. The blocked shots were great but dat 3 zone puck support all over the ice... we haven't seen that in a long time

 

[Rangers in 7]

No one answered me

No

 

[Nickmo82]

Congrats to Shesty on the 100th.

 

[egelband]

People complaining (not here) that the rangers are playing ‘the trap’. I love it. Finally doing something as a team and with a plan. I’ll take it.

*In my best impersonation of broadcaster version of Phil Esposito*

"Ahhh crap, wrong thread."

Meant to post this in here but had the wrong thread open. Roast away.

I sincerely hopes this sticks with Laf and Panarin. I hope Laviolette talked up Lafreniere in telling him to go attack and don't worry about fumbles and that the team is there for turnovers and just play your game, and he told Panarin that this isn't "New York TYPICAL!!!" in you choosing your linemates either. If Panarin awakes and embraces the young blood and they click - well I'm just going to call it a night because I ain't getting too far ahead of myself here.

Hope you all had a good night, Buffalo has a great team coming in hot. Cheers!

Drury knew what he was doing trading Lias Andersson for a 2ed (drafted Will Cuylle with that pick) this could be one of Drury’s best trades as Rangers GM

 

[Gordon Bombay]

This game reminded me of the old "we don't have enough skill to not play 6 goalie system" debates. This team looked considerably faster than any game last year. It's almost like if you know where you're supposed to be you can play faster

Bonino doesn't do much on offense but he did some nice things
Bread was great

That faceoff win by Bonino was an ace vet play, not much offensively but wise defensively

he really is the heart if this team. he’s the glue that binds the team. he’s the rug that ties the room together.
