GDT: Game 11: New York Rangers @ Minnesota Wild, 8pm ET, MSG

[CLW]

I will say this, though, I'm over that top line.

Kakko sucks and the other two are being too cute with each other.

I really wanna go back to Kreider and Trocheck who were great at forechecking together.

Kakko with the two BFFs is pointless, it's a poisoned chalice. Zib and Kreider will do nothing for a couple of months but smooch and wait for PPs. We've seen this movie before several times.

 

[effen]

I taste vomit suggesting this...but Harpur is better than Jones.

Why would the truth give you an upset stomach? It sets you free.

 

[Captain Lindy]

Harpur is never the answer

Harpur and Schneider were a good pairing last year.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

How many years are we gonna continue to pretend Brodzinski is an nhl player?

 

[Kocur26]

Brodzinski is a turnover machine. Not good enough for this level.

Trash

 

[Machinehead]

I'm firmly on the boat that neither of these two were ever that good.

It's funny how they're the inverse of each other. Kakko is a toolsy player but he never, ever, ever produced against men. Lafreniere produced off the charts as a junior but I still don't know how.

At least Lafreniere has shown the chops of a decent top sixer so far this year.

 

[Raspewtin]

Watching Schneider play is painful.

I would get rid of Schneider to keep Gustafsson in a minute.

 

[INWOODBLUE]

This game is a revelation. I am gaining awareness and enlightenment. My deeper understanding of the New York Rangers is a welcome addition to my total being.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Harpur and Schneider were a good pairing last year.

Harpur was never good at anything, ever.

 

[Machinehead]

Who should they have put in?

 

[duhmetreE]

damn Panarin and Laf again

I'd be double shifting them in the 3rd

 

[mxyxptlk]

I told u on the first day of the season kakko would be sitting on 1 goal in game 10

Not surprising considering how well his linemates are putting up points.

 

[hardnosed]

We might see Mackey next game. Jones doesn't fit if they plan to use him with Schneider.

 

[RangersFan1994]

Brodzinski is not an NHL player. Can't they call up Rempe or Edstrom? Brodzinski stinks.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

I'd be double shifting them in the 3rd

100%. They are dynamic.

 

[NickyFotiu]

People said i was crazy when i said Laff was gonna be the better player lol

Laf was better in 21-22
KK was better in 22-23.
Laf is better in 23-24.

 

[Raspewtin]

Brodzinski looks just as useless as predicted, how he looked in camp be damned.

 

[rangersfansince08]

Kakko on pace for 15pts this season

he keeps getting worse

 

[Cmox]

Krieder and Zibs should let Kakko in on the after the win hug they always do. Maybe osmosis will help chemistry?

 

[Kovalev27]

Jones has to be up to double digit turnovers.

He’s not even trying to play any kind of structured hockey

At least Lafreniere has shown the chops of a decent top sixer so far this year.

Even so if Laf was good Panarin would have 30points this season.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

He saved a goal. Laf's backhands are deadly.

 

[duhmetreE]

Zibs line is still playing Gallant hockey

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

Who should they have put in?

Laf has elite offensive zone IQ he just can't do anything skillful at speed.

Kakko can't process and has shown zero f***ing anything in tight except a propensity to get hit on the boards. He's Jesper Fast on NA ice. Maybe different on bigger ice.
