GDT: Canes @ Rangers 3/11 7PM...If A Canes Game Takes Place...

[tomdundo]

...but nobody cares to watch it, is it still a 5-1 loss?

Projected Rangers lines (from their GDT):

Kreider-Stepan-Nash
Hagelin-Richards-St. Louis
Pouliot-Brassard-Zuccarello
Boyle-Moore-Carcillo

McDonagh-Girardi
Staal-Klein
Moore-Stralman

Lundqvist(?)



Our lines?...nah. Not going to type out that defense. I'll spare you guys the pain.


Oh well, here's a GDT for those who are willing to watch to discuss whatever there is to discuss and stuff. I'll be busy and won't be able to watch the fail.


And yes, the Canes @ Rangers is intentional. You know...more Rangers fans than Canes fans and all that good stuff.

If you're planning to skip a game this year, this one wouldn't be a bad choice.

Which is precisely our plan. Taking the game off for a sanity break.

70% new yorkers 30% canes fans

being generous

 

[RodTheBawd]

I'll have to watch this one on mute, if at all.

Guy called me again about stretch drive tickets. I laughed, and offered to sell him my tickets for Thursday night. I think he was able to gauge how interested I was in buying more.

 

[KibGrinder]

Ug - I'll be there with the Mrs. and one kid in tow. I am dreading it and that's a shame. Had a couple Rangers fans sitting beside us last Thursday and no doubt there will be more beside us tonight. You think they'll let me in with a "Decline it!" sign for when we are on the PP?

I've got to try to enjoy it as we are done after this season for season tickets.

 

[TheOllieC]

So if Sekera is out we have a Hainsey-Bellemore top pairing going up against a McDonagh-Girardi top pairing.

Can't wait to watch this pivotal game.

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

You guys are ridiculous.

We all know that this team will find a way to win this. It's what we do. Then we'll get 100% healthy and follow it up with losses against some combination of the Sabres, Oilers, Canucks, Flames, Islanders etc.

The end of this season has "gonna make a run and not get a top 6 pick" written all over it.

That's always been my thought for all these years, but I really don't think they have it in them to pull it off. They're completely demoralized and finally licking their wounds.

Unrelated thought, is this really the game they think they should be throwing Ward into? If ever there was a game to destroy confidence, this would be it... although I guess the flipside could happen... hahahahaha

I hope so. A thorough tanking is really the only thing left to do here. A pity we couldn't trade away more assets to help the process along.

10-0 loss. Moral victory to EStaal with no minor penalties.

 

[Ole Gil]

If the assets were worth anything, they probably wouldn't be in this situation.

 

[caniac315]

For the first time EVER, Google calendar did not send my reminder for the game to my phone today. Even they want me to forget about this team. So what did I do but bet $200 vcash on a win tonight.

 

[BrindAmours Army]

Micha[e]l Jordan with a three pointer.

4-3 loss.

 

[nobuddy]

but like if sekera isn't playing then what even is the point of this

 

[nobuddy]

i am just going to pretend that michal jordan is andrej sekera

 

[tomdundo]

State won a game without TJ Warren. That means that the Canes can win a game without Andrej Sekera, right?

 

[tarheelhockey]

Canes have signed TJ Warren

 

[Navin R Slavin]

If the assets were worth anything, they probably wouldn't be in this situation.

Uh, draft picks? Helloooo?

[NorthStar4Canes]

I predict BrellemOrr-score will rise to the occasion and lead this team to victory on the back of a stellar performance.

The stars have aligned for him,
Creating this opportunity,
And this is what will happen.

Amen

 

[HisIceness]

Canes have signed TJ Warren

42-1 win. His Iceness with all 42 assists

 

[SteelFish87*]

did Sekera get hurt?

is Ward starting?

 

[raynman]

64 games into the season and it still boggles my mind that a year ago we had McBain and now we automatically assume loss when Sekera, or SeCaresa, isn't in the lineup.

 

[Novacane]

did Sekera get hurt?

is Ward starting?

Yes. In practice.

Probably not. A writer said he probably is.
