GDT: ECF - Game 4 - New York Rangers @ Tampa Bay Lightning - 8pm EST, ESPN - Series (NYR 2-1)

[Machinehead]

Yes. Shoot more and those passes will eventually start getting through.

He overpassed all year. Only 22 goals, a pro-rated career worst.

Teams can take his crazy passes away knowing he won't shoot.

 

[New York RKY]

@ViD - great period for Panarin, I see why Tampa pays him the big bucks now.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

Allright. Bad period with maybe three or four good shifts. Still a one goal game and plenty of hockey to be played. They can win this game.

 

[CommaSynapse]

I think they need to move Chytil up with Panarin and Copp. And move Goody down with Laffy and Kakko. Just need to get a bit more speed on that 2nd line.

Or just play Laf - Chytil - Kakko as the 2nd line.

 

[GAGLine]

Bad play by Braun on the goal. Still waiting for Panarin to show up.

 

[Brian Leetch]

Panarin has been awful. Bench him.

 

[turcotte8]

It was a crap period but we're still in it. Wake up and we have a chance.

 

[Brutananadilewski]

Panarin has been awful. Bench him.

So Reaves or Rooney can move up to the 2nd?!

 

[Boris Zubov]

Now you're talking.

 

[DuneGoon84]

We need the kid line to start generating some chances and give us any sort momentum, our top 2 lines sure ass hell aren't doing it...

 

[Greg02]

Leading the lead in slewfoots.

 

[bbny]

Trouba low-key had like the best chance of the period but the puck is still in the air somewhere.

He waited so long to shoot. Infuriating

 

[smoneil]

If GG won't play the kid line more, then they need to try something else. Move Bread to the RW and slide Laf up to line 2 (Laf Copp Bread). Then play Goodrow between Chytil and Kakko on line 3. It still makes more sense to just play Laf/Chytil/Kakko more, but GG for whatever reason, doesn't want to ice the only consistently good line.

 

[CommaSynapse]

Subban wins the Clancy?!

 

[yrrebbor]

They are playing poorly. Surprised it’s not 3-0 right now.

 

[Gordon Bombay]

He overpassed all year. Only 22 goals, a pro-rated career worst.

I'm right there with you.

Playing with Copp and Goodrow it makes sense to throw it to the net too. Those 2 will go there

 

[LokiDog]

Boucher ain’t Valliquette lol

 

[mas0764]

All season havent liked Goodrow w top 6, occasional goodness no more frequent than meh.
I'd put Motte there, if not a kid

Goodrow is a bottom 6 player

 

[CasusBelli]

East-west is the best way to beat Igor? How innovative. That’s the best way to beat any goalie. So insightful.

 

[Jauffre]

So Reaves or Rooney can move up to the 2nd?!

Gallant salivating and mouth-breathing at the idea

 

[Cmox]

Subban wins the Clancy?!

Wutt?

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Personally i think that period may wake us up, we seriously miss Strome.

 

[MillerTime79]

Jesus, PK Subban wins a humanitarian award. How about all the humans he’s tried to maim this season alone?

 

[Boris Zubov]

We need to move Panarin up to Zib's line. Shake things up...at least Zib will shoot if Panarin can manage to complete a pass.

I've been banging this drum since the Pittsburgh series.
