GDT: Four Nations Tournament - Starts Feb 12th @ 8pm ET, TNT

[Siddi]

No injuries to our players is all I care about.

For 8 days, we don't have to watch Weekend at Bernies, Ryan Lindgren edition.

Anyone not excited to see Fox partnered with Slavin/Hanifin/Werenski are straight up crazy.

Hindsight is 20/20 but we really missed the boat on Hanifin. He was available last deadline and went for a 1st, mid tier prospect and a 3rd. We could have easily afforded that, let Lindgren walk this offseason and just not done the Smith trade and had plenty of cap room to fit his deal in this year and beyond.

Hanifin - Fox would have solved a lot of problems for this team

Never thought of that. Will be great to see how he plays. More interested in how Kreider looks and if he's actually injured. If he is he shouldn't be playing.

Is he even going to play? It seems reasonably likely that Kreider is the 13th forward.

 

[Mandar]

It's no Kumite.

"You break my record.....now I break you!!"

This will be glorified pond hockey. Kreider not opting out after laboring an injury the entire year is wild.

I would rather watch a golf tournament with 50 NHL players. Nobody wants this crap

The fake injury excuse needs to end after the tournament. Yea he was DTD a couple times this season, but the injury was overblown by his fan boys to cover up his garbage hockey.

 

[JimmyG89]

Maybe Fox will see how it playing with someone that actually plays defense and tells the Rangers to banish Lindgren.

Also, will Ottawa complain about soft tampering with Brady on the same line as JT Miller?

I think CK should have opted out. I understand back issues. I have had my share. Some days you can feel pretty good and some days you have to make sure you roll a certain way out of bed. I understand CK may feel okay to play. I just think the rest and treatment would be better for our Rangers team.

I'm curious why you think it is a fake injury? I had my first back issue as a young kid after trying to juke a guy while playing two hand touch football in the street. I felt like I was stabbed with a knife in my side despite no contact. Today my back feels 100% but I had discomfort last month and would not be shocked to have some more next month.

For those of you completely obsessed with Kreider, it looks like he's the extra forward at practice.

He's the 13th forward today. But that doesn't matter to the lunatics on here.

More reason he should have just opted out

 

[McRanger92]

JT on a line with Brady T. Drury salivating

Nah! You get selected to play for your country you should go. Maybe if this was 10 years ago he would opt out. But at 34 this will be his last chance to play for Team USA. He won't be on the Olympic team unless he has some huge resurgence. I have no problem with this.

 

[Cmox]

I mean, Kreider did list his injuries in a newspaper. It's not like people are speculating. I get why people are worried about it and want him to rest.

 

[BlueShirtGal]

LOL

There is always some ulterior motive. It can't just be taken at face value around here.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Laf not on PP1??? How can they do this???

I’m pissed at the interruption of the season and honestly this tournament is meaningless.
I GUESS I’ll watch it because there won’t be any NYR games, but… so dumb.
