wheeler looked pretty good. if he can keep up that's a sneakily good addition, his hockey sense is off the charts

 

[hackeyman]

That was a fun period to watch. Trocheck what can you say. Wheeler was excellent for the little time he played especially considering a long layoff. Laffy's confidence just growing and growing.

 

[Cmox]

I missed it...what happened?

 

[AirGut]

Looks to me like NYRs have finally gotten past whatever bug was running through the team.

maybe the florida orange juice helped them out this morning

I missed it...what happened?

Team lost possession and the line was coming out of the zone when a Panther not even hiding it, kneed Wheeler

and fresh legs never hurt even if they are 37 year old legs.

 

[Tob]

That was a tough period, can't win them all. This team has more comeback wins than any other team. They'll find a way to dig themselves out of trailing by 2.

He’s might be rough on the first line but he sure as hell is a great fourth liner.

Yeah, he wasn't bad at all.

 

[duhmetreE]

We have had great periods like this and then followed up with clunkers

Stakes are too high. Need to be just as sharp

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Hitting that crossbar on the 2nd PP is bugging me.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

It's what they do. They are dirty f***ers.

I think Tob deleted his account for it to be taken over by AI.

 

[NYRangers16]

flashbacks of when he was all up in Stamkos & Hedman's grill back in the 2022 ECF. And that was a very stacked Tampa team back then

Oh yeah. His interviews are dumber than Trouba is on the ice lol, but the dude clearly has the drive but also now the confidence. His presence on our roster right now while bursting out is one reason the Trocheck line has been one of the best in the league all year. The results just kept building and he just kept getting better. I think we got our #1 OA.

Vitamin C!

 

[DuneGoon84]

Wheeler is slow but you can tell, he has better hockey sense than brodz and even Vesey.

 

[Captain Lindy]

It's what they do. They are dirty f***ers.

They are low-life THUGS! I despise this team with a burning passion.

 

[zlev]

scumbag. i cant tell who it was though. montour?

 

[bl02]

Wheeler should have stayed down like he was hit by a bullet like they did last game.
Maybe one of the linesman might have seen it and confer with one of the refs. Not sure how you miss it being right at center ice pretty much.

 

[irishlaxburger2]

Keep finding skip passes on the PP. If they can connect on one, Florida is playing so aggressively that they become wildly out of position if a skip pass is completed. Only way to defend at that point is scramble wildly and get caught even further out of position.

The second PP was built entirely off a fairly innocuous skip pass that just opened them up.

 

[NYROrtsFan]

Team isn't going to dominate like that next period and that's okay. Just have to hope the puck doesn't go on for them

 

[InfernoDaLuz]

Infuriating.

 

[jay from jersey]

Yeah, he wasn't bad at all.

Uses his body well to protect the puck. Always did…. I hope his skating isn’t a huge problem. He wasn’t the fastest guy pre-injury.
However, another big body that can work the boards and cycle is a + against FLA

 

[Machinehead]

I love these pigeons.

More pigeon commercials.

 

[TriFF51]

Excellent period. Gotta keep up the hard work. Man we coulda used that shot from Zibs going in. Next goal is huge.
