Post-Game Talk: devils @ RANGERS

[DialUp]

My favorite part is "when it came out pink we were so excited"

And what, if it was blue everyone would have booed and asked for a refund?

They were just happy that it wasn't brown. Because then it would have been the poo puck and we all know that means 7 years bad luck.

As the kids say: obvi.

It may of been garbage time but Zibs had a nice subtle dime to LaF cruise missile

 

[NYR94]

he was also playing with Mika the first 15 games so who knows how many he could have had if Mika was at least average this season

Strong center play is so important. I'm so glad Chytil is back and Strome is playing better.

So what’s the guess on Igor?

Torn groin, busted knee, jacked up his back, take your pick

I'm calling Disc. You mess woth one of those and all kinds of shit stops working. He couldn't get up, he couldn't put weight on the leg, he appeared to be on constant pain. I call disc and hope to Hell I am wrong.

 

[rangers1314]

Well at least we know he’s still alive, that’s a plus

. I would move Chytil up for a few games at least. Mika has zero confidence right now

Zibs should be playing with our 3rd liners.

His 'breakout season' was with 3rd liners.. Let him get back to basics and grind through it.

Laf Chytil Buch
Kreider Strome Kakko
Howden Zibanejad Blackwell

Our next question is from Molly Walker from 30,000 feet.

I gotta give Strome credit. I used up think he could only play well with Panarin but he certainly had clicked with CK and even Blackwell. With the way Mika has played we need Strome now

He clearly just got a whiff of McCloud's elbow pads. That man disgusts me.

Igor died for the team this game. Orthodox Easter is May 2nd... Resurrection?

but it looks bad. To me, it looked like he dislocated his hip, he took a alot of pressure on the hip/oblique area. Best news would be spasms. A strain wouldn't look like that. I don't even think a tear would look like that.

Kreider has improved his release and his shot in general. I feel like I remember him shooting low and hard all the time. He will earn his pay check in the slot. It's that simple. His center has been MIA for the entire season. Finally clicks with Strome.

KAM will have a HBO series worth of footage based on his 'recovery' by the end of his career... hopefully with better endings.

Fox is Fox.

Chytil skating well.. doesn't seem to be affected by Covid.

USA BUCH back

Our PP with Zibs still sucks.... I say it jokingly, but putting Zibs on that PP led to a series of events that led to Igor getting hurt. Our PP killed our goalie.

Praying Kakko and/or Panarin is in next game. We need to trim the fat.

Thought the same.

No pressure, couldn't stand.

That could be anything leg related TBH, but I had the same thought as well

 

[SRHRangers]

Saturdays lines.

LaF-Chytil-Buch.
Krieder-Strome-Kakko.
Blackwell-Rooney-Gauthier.
Lemmy-Zib-Howden (he will never be benched)

 

[17futurecap]

So basically needs an MRI on his knee

Still in awe at the zip on that shot from a 19-year-old

 

[GoAwayGiannone]

Posthumously I'm assuming, with the luck this team has.

 

[Kovalev27]

Watched the Shesty sequence a few times now. As a goalie, I have had a few similar situations. Cannot get a good read here though. HIS reaction certainly looks serious. But cannot see in detail exactly why/When it happened. We Will have to wait and see...

Same here I can’t figure what it was. It looked like his left leg for a minute but he wasn’t putting any weight on his right leg. I can only think groin there with that extension. I don’t see knee. I hate as a goalie going wide open to my blocker side always have. I try to push full body across just doesn’t feel natural. But to me it’s a groin

vally nailed it too. Igor is going to have to put more work into his body. He’s got to get stronger too many issues since he’s been up even if one was a freak accident. He had the ankle he had the groin in the play in. It’s an issue here already

 

[Tob]

you dont know that. stop playing HF doctor.

 

[Machinehead]

Oh shit this guy's the worst one.

f***ing showing the baby their faces.

The LaF pass gave me bloodflow.

That goal put a cigarette in my mouth.

That was my first thought too. Wouldn't that be extreme for someone his age tho?

 

[Kovalev27]

I want a look at what Ramsay did right after. I thought it looked like they were stretching his back, but I wanted another look at that

thats the only other thing is maybe he tweaked his back but that wouldn’t explain the leg

watch his right hip on the save. it looks awkward af
