GDT: ECSF: Game 1 - New York Rangers vs Carolina Hurricanes, 4pm ET, ESPN

[Atax]

I've said it for a long time that the criteria for a double minor being "is he bleeding or not" is the dumbest rule in all of sports.

Same with suspensions. Like oh thats the worst thing ever, but he didnt get really hurt, so its okay.

 

[inranger94]

Why is Mess dressed like the host of an upscale strip club? I’m used to PK wearing something ridiculous.

He is trying to outshine PK

 

[KevinFinnerty]

i have no words for how good we look on the PP. Panarin skating too which is a good sign. Canes can definitely score 2 more so keep the foot on the gas, I want 6 goals on Freddie.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Mika has been good but I'm still trying to understand what the hell he was doing when he was wide open in front.

 

[Machinehead]

I've said it before, I typically don't mind PK, but if he thought that was a good Canes period, he doesn't watch the Canes enough.

They out-attempt opponents 3-1 when their system is working.

 

[makdeniss]

Not a bad game so far

 

[Synergy27]

We’re gonna shit on Mika and yeah he should have shot the puck but I guarantee you he didn’t have anything to shoot at, was in too close, and didn’t have any momentum to try to take it wide.

 

[17futurecap]

That period may have been the best Lindgren looked all year.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Can’t believe Kuznetsov only got 2 for that.

That’s as suspendable as anything Trouba has ever done.

Agreed...that had 5 & game written all over it

 

[SnowblindNYR]

LOL

YES!!!!!!!!!!! A paper cut gets 4 minutes. A broken jaw gets 2

 

[Machinehead]

It looks like Mess and PK traded outfits.

PK very understated and Mess looking like a porn star.

It's okay to be critical of really dumb plays

 

[KevinFinnerty]

what a key player Vincent Trocheck is man. such a huge component of our PP set ups with his face-off prowess.

 

[INWOODBLUE]

That period may have been the best Lindgren looked all year.

He's been good all year

 

[DanielBrassard]

I understand why Mika didn’t want to shoot, he basically would have had to go low glove to beat Andersen. But he’s gotta put that on net regardless.

 

[huerter]

There was nothing meta about the play he made. That was stupid.

God bless him, and awesome period, but that was stupid.

Kreider did it 20 minutes ago. The Garden roared.

 

[savebyrichter94]

He leaves his feet you dumbass

 

[AirGut]

still 40 minutes, game is far from over

 

[TheDirtyH]

wow subban think the knee trip/flying elbow was clean

I'm shocked

I think it's true that sometimes people overreact to goals in terms of how they assess the game, and miss quality that doesn't go in.

This is one of those, and it always seems to be MoneyPuck, where I just don't get it.

What high-danger chances did they have?

 

[will1066]

Or you adapted to the new meta years ago and totally respect it.

You robots are posting more human every day!
