GDT: ECQF - Game 4 - New York Rangers vs New Jersey Devils - 7pm EST - MSG, ESPN (NYR Lead 2-1)

Lmfao. Honestly I just had Artichoke Pizza for the third time and it’s garbage. Dominos is better.

Artichoke & Basille? They had one in downtown Hartford that was a complete disgrace. So bad, that I would never try the ones in NYC. I actually emailed them to tell them any respectable Italian would be ashamed to put their name on that pizza. Shockingly, they never replied.

 

[BlueShirtGal]

Is it me or does this not even feel like a playoff game? This team doesn’t have the same heart or intensity of the teams during the Hank years.

Even last year was better.

 

[Richard Banger]

I'll still hate these lines even if we win the series in 5. They don't make sense.

If they win in 5 those lines are working lol

 

[DialUp]

Plenty of hockey left in this game for them to get their shit together. It only takes one shift

For sure, I'll be pumped if they get one and be full of hope again.

 

[Kravtsov420]

5 on 5 will murder us, and then on top of it the PP is going dry

Recipe for disaster for this squad

 

[Filip Chytil]

Looked like the regular season where they dictated play against us for a large portion of the period. And when we had the puck, it was just sloppy play with the puck all period. Just not good. And unfortunately, not good in what feels like a sustainable way.

Ouch. Appreciate the breakdown (and thanks to everyone else for updating me too)

LGR! Plenty of hockey left tonight. Looks like TB scored. They're winning 1-0.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Laffy throws the body as well

Really? I can think of maybe 2 hits in his career, that I would even call a hit.

In juniors he was said to be a mean hitter. Do we have the patience until Laf is 25 and more mature, to be physically impactful in the NHL.

I remain of the opinion that his best attribute is his shot (and that ain't even elite). But he's not used in that way.

Just wasted scouting, pick, development, player.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Not blaming him, but I really wish Shesterkin made that save on Hughes. Ugh.

Hughes is our new Crosby. We have years of this coming up. God forbid Bedard ends up in this division.

 

[Gordon Bombay]

I know geometry and whatever but put Mika in his office and throw Tarasenko in the bumper

 

[Machinehead]

If they win in 5 those lines are working lol

No, we'll probably just have a 4-10 bender on the PP again.

These lines shart themselves at even strength, and that includes the trash ass overrated kid line.

 

[Siddi]

Only the Rangers would take their leading PP goal scorer and move him away from where he scored his goals.

This baffles me to no end. Let him rip.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Rangers finding a way to make Akido Schmidt a thing, gotta love it

 

[Kane One]

Artichoke & Basille? They had one in downtown Hartford that was a complete disgrace. So bad, that I would never try the ones in NYC. I actually emailed them to tell them any respectable Italian would be ashamed to put their name on that pizza. Shockingly, they never replied.

Yeah there’s a couple of them in NY. I had the one in the village and the other day in Brooklyn. Trash.

 

[CLW]

Unfriendly reminder that I f***ing hate our lines and when they're not finishing at an absurd rate, they do nothing else well.

Kreider-Trocheck-Kane was one of the best lines in the league and Gallant flipped Trocheck and Zibanejad because Tootsie Rolls.

So annoying to see such stupid mistakes all the time. I said this before the game I wanted to flip Zib and Tro back to this.

 

[racamdim]

Next goal wins.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Hughes is our new Crosby. We have years of this coming up.

Maybe you know, we coud actually try to make life somewhat difficult for him....He had a personal usher that let him skate right into the slot untouched way too often.

 

[ohbaby]

This is not as bad as people here make. We still are playing great defensively and that's what wins games.

The big difference is the Devils are playing some pretty good D too.

 

[Filip Chytil]

Zibanejad goal incoming to tie it 1-1. I can feel it in my bones.

 

[Machinehead]

Zibanejad goal incoming to tie it 1-1. I can feel it in my bones.

Sounds like osteoporosis to me

 

[Boris Zubov]

Yeah there’s a couple of them in NY. I had the one in the village and the other day in Brooklyn. Trash.

Trash was the perfect description of the shit they served me up here. It was appalling.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Going to take a greasy one to tie this up. Just keep working.

 

[Kravtsov420]

I’ve never seen a team that can’t pass like this one

 

[NickyLongLegz]

Why are the rangers not finishing checks anymore I don’t get it

 

[EdJovanovski]

Vesey michigan goal

 

[DanielBrassard]

Never able to get the puck off the walls.
