GDT: Game 14: New York Rangers vs Winnipeg Jets

[Killem Dafoe]

I really f***ing hope Zib can start producing with Panarin and Laf. No other reason to split that line up. Sorry, my gears are grinding

 

[Row I Goon]

Is Quick starting?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Is Quick starting?

I wish

 

[Fitzy]

Is Quick starting?

This game is a chance for Igor to show he’s actually the best in the league. Can’t imagine they’ll want to miss that

 

[The Crypto Guy]

We are still going with the shit lines? Okay.

I'd say this is a big test for the Rangers tonight, but does it really matter?

The Rangers will be there in the end, unless there are some key injuries.

Im not trying to diminish the importance of this game and the regular season but ts all about the playoffs with this core. We've already seen them pass a bunch of tests and "measuring-stick" games the past few seasons. We know what we have and what we dont.

They can f*** around all they want with the lines and the D pairs, but this year its all about the deadline and adding some key pieces before the playoffs and then how far they can go whether they win the presidents trophy or clinch the last week or two

Sure but players ebb and flow in terms of their form, sometimes those ebbs and flows are season long. Will Mika and Lindgren figure their games out by the playoffs? Will Cuylle find even more new offense? Will Quick return to earth after being Cam Talbot esque for us for over a year?

That’s why I still watch the RS religiously in seasons like this. It does matter, it just matters a lot more in terms of form than it does place in the standings

 

[AirGut]

Best team in the NHL versus the recent President's Trophy Champions, get ready for chaos boys

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Remember we played Winnipeg in the season opener in the most fun NYR season of the past decade ? Zibanejad had 4 points, Trouba looked like a beast with 3 points in his first ever NYR game, Marc Staal scored a fluke of a wraparound, and we won a fun 6-5 game .

 

[KevinFinnerty]

Feels like Igor is about to get lit up

 

[KevinFinnerty]

Need a big game LETS GO RANGERS I'm fighting the negative thoughts

Video tribute for Trouba?

"Wishing you continued success in NY"

This game is at MSG.

Named captain, President's Trophy, 2 x ECF appearances. It's certainly more personal and team success than the Jets have had since he left...

Kind of wild that this is Trouba's 6th year here, which is as long as he was in 'Peg for. He still kind of seems a like a 'new guy'

 

[Fitzy]

This game is at MSG.

If we trade him back mid-game we can still make this happen.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Screw it: build the highlight roll from both teams games for Trouba

I'd do Trouba for Pionk straight up again. Maybe they throw us a 1st rounder this time?

The dumb assesses who run this org would think it appropriate still

To be honest I bet Jones is better than Pionk within one calendar year

 

[molotce]

Guys im on vpn and cerveza in costa rica and i have a hard time finding the game, its not started right ?

 

[Boris Zubov]

To be honest I bet Jones is better than Pionk within one calendar year

Maybe...hard to know unless we stop treating him like a yo-yo.

 

[Mike in Houston]

Oh how I remember the days when Pionk wasn't good enough for this fanbase during a rebuild. I'd take him over Trouba. I wanted to keep Neal to begin with.

LMAO Cechmanek catching strays from Vally...on the 1 year anniversary of his death, no less.

 

[will1066]

My expectations for Zibanejad compete level are two rungs above Weekend At Bernie's.

What was he saying? I primarily remember Roman Cechmanek for being extremely aggressive in leaving the crease, and also for going from amazing to out of the league in two years
