what's the Goat injury? I know it says upper body.

 

[MattMartin]

Hoping for the usual good injury free game as per always. I must ask, why everyone so down on the team? For many years I could have sworn you guys always started slow, no? Seems like the team is playing much better since last time we played. I think you folks have a contender for a nice bunch of years, enjoy it!

In Cali for work and will miss this one. LGR! Extend that KK point streak!

You're telling me a guy who has never held a job longer than 2 seasons as an NHL coach is a winner? Please explain. You love dodging this point because it proves you wrong instantly. Only two seasons with a playoff series win in his entire career. So far, this is following his exact same career trajectory - good first season, mediocre/bad second season, fired.

Buddy- the guy has a winning NHL record. I’m sure even you can see that. By definition he’s a winner. His track record of being employed for 3 or fewer seasons is a totally different argument. The guy has won EVERYWHERE he’s coached more often than he’s lost. Why is this so hard??

You’ve become fixated on this illogical argument that because the guy has been fired after two seasons everywhere he’s been that somehow the exact same situation is playing out again. It’s 100% illogical—the players are different, the ownership is different, the GM’s are different, the expectations are different- the entire situation is different.

There is an accepted truth in analysis- “correlation does not equal causation.” In simple terms, just because similar trends appear or patterns emerge one should not assume that the similar trends or patterns are at all related and causing an outcome. You are falling for exactly the opposite conclusion and it’s blinding you to the possibility that perhaps Gallant will coach for another 6 seasons- maybe he won’t.

How are the Islanders the perfect opponent for us we can't score against them.

 

[Ruggs225]

I view this game like the governor election. I am hoping for a change, but in the end in my heart i know it will be the the same shit and we lose.

3 minutes into warmup- can someone confirm Krav has not gotten injured?

[SnowblindNYR]

I understand Gallant wants Fox to carry Hajek but he's only human and that's a big ask.

 

[Greg02]

Not looking forward to Hajek-Fox, but I can't imagine it lasts so long.

3 minutes into warmup- can someone confirm Krav has not gotten injured?

It's hard to believe his being prone to injury, isn't a result of his conditioning and strength. Being a lightweight, you are going to get pushed around, and likely injured. You can't play a big man's game, if you are not one yourself. In other words, throwing your weight around, winning battles, going to the hard areas without getting punished.

I would so like to see him display his skill tonight, with his new jump in practice. But with our game plan of playing hard it works against him.

 

[will1066]

Hajek wasn't bad last game. We'll see

I almost fell for this, then I remember you are tricksy.

Kravtsov better absolutely ragdoll Matt Martin tonight.

 

[mike14]

I think they should switch Laf and Panarin, but I am intrigued to see these lines, especially the ' 3rd' line.

Should we be impressed that GG actually has Reaves as a healthy scratch again, or is just a sign of panic setting in?

 

[rangersfansince08]

we only play them 3 times? great. only three losses

 

[Cmox]

Oh they switched laff, Sweet

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Incoming Barzal hattrick.

 

[Greg02]

Glad I have the midterm elections to distract me from the stress of Rangers-Islanders.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

MSG trying to jinx Varlamov. Wishful dreaming.

 

[Sayba]

Why is Reaves on the team if he isn’t playing tonight?

 

[NoQuitInNewMexico]

No goals? For Mathew Barzal? You're meaning to tell me he hasn't scored a goal yet?
