Game 4 of the Conference Finals being literally the WOAT time to try it.

Maybe only use JT as the center only in the O-zone, and put D. Moore between them in the D-zone? I think this is just a matter of preference of risk/reward vs. neutral, i.e. Fast.

It's possible Kreider - Miller - Nash could be a dominant line. It's almost certain that they'd be a disaster on the defensive side of the puck.

Nash has been good defensively, and Kreider's speed allows him to get back in the play. I still think yes, in the long run Miller will be a good defensive player but right now he's not.

Honestly, the coaches know the players, how they look, how they feel. AV knows whether to play JT with Rick and Kreids or with Dorse and Boyler. I trust him.

Kreider's speed also allows him to get very far from the play.

I trust AV too. We already have one line that's all offense/no defense tho.

Boullion cube is in?

Just play your game, Rangers.

Can we stop with these biblical references? Jesus ...

I see what you did there.

I'm a little slow, and didn't get the joke. I was this close to making a post arguing this.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Most of this angst will be lessened by winning. I'm still pissed over our fluke loss.

 

[jerseyjinx94]

My cousin texted me that Stepan is a "healthy scratch."

Is he dumb, or is Steps actually listed as a healthy scratch?

Glad you got the curb in time.

We are big favorites among the good honest people that makes a dime for every fanatical Habs fan that thinks Therien's ww2 tactic is gonna bring them anything but enemies. They are normally right. And even if we should loose this one, it would probably take a statistical miracle for us not to make the SC final. I'm inclined to devote some cash on the Habs taking the series just to seal the deal. Miracles doesn't happen to me, and in my head they certainly doesn't dress like Montreal if they do.

JT has been kinda disapointing IMO. To me, the fact that he is deemed the best fill in is an eye opener also. JT needs to take advantage of this opportunity. If he plays poorly he won't sniff the ice again. My guess is that if JT has it in him to elevate his game we will see at the very least some flashes tonight. It's time he plays like he's capable.

 

[Clown Fiesta]

nice one. Well that couldn't last for two hours, so I refrain.

Gotta think of something, or I'll fall asleep. Got no good videogame atm ... all too boring and such.

And drinking is not an option either ...

Buy Transistor.

Watch closer.

2 points in 3 playoff games this year. Noticeable in every game, gets scoring chances, plays with an edge. He has great raw talent. He's more than capable for filling in for Stepan for the time being.

"I'm not healthy!"

 

[LORENZO]

JT plays bad tonight, I guess Fast in at Montreal if Stepan is still out.

Not that I'm particularly in love with the bible, I just thought you were being really sensitive! I guess "Jesus" gets used so often in that context, I missed it.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Had a look at it right know. Don't like the graphics and I already had my full share of Final Fantasy(-like) games (looks like a FF-like game). Story may be awesome though.

JT is in because Carcillo is suspended.

You went very far dude. It's all fun, some lightening up, pre-game. We need to stay positive and win tonight!

 

[5 4 Fighting]

An eye for an eye. Tommy P you're up!

 

[Cassano]

Remember 2 yrs back when a prospect with limited experience shined in the playoffs? Miller is a better player now than Kreider was back then too IMO. I think he should fill in admirably.

It seems like he is feeling his way around the ice and out of position quite a bit from what I've seen. I hope he pulls it all together he is a big part of future or at least was supposed to be. Maybe tonight is a coming out party for him. LGR

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Chill on JT, he may not be NHL-ready 100%, but he is really good. I love his tools, he simply still has to grow into his body. He's 21 guys.

Tonight will be tough for him though, he has to fight very hard.

I wouldn't compare it to FF, it's just really well done story telling disguised as a game, but that doesn't take away from the gameplay. Not for everyone I suppose. But had similar complaints to yours with their first game Bastion and actually loved it.
