GDT: Game 19 - New York Rangers @ San Jose Sharks - 10:30 EST, MSG (The late night show edition)

[LiveLongandProspal]

This offense is dreadful.

Tank for Bedard!

So he can bust too?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

This offense is dreadful.

Tank for Bedard!

we wont be bad enough. We'll draft around 16th

I don't know what this team needs, but it needs something and Drury needs to figure this out fast.

I have an idea...

 

[Baby Punisher]

Tuba, anything but that

He would have been better off giving it to Igor to cover up. Christ all mighty.

 

[gabevh3]

9 year olds know not to try that pass

In his defense.. he's a geezer in comparison.

 

[Cmox]

This offense is dreadful.

Tank for Bedard!

Lose honor for Connor

 

[will1066]

Ridiculous that this is still 0-0

Jones nearly made it 1-0 Sharks, so there's that

zzzz

 

[Chaels Arms]

I'd be OK with Gallant scratching Laf and putting in Kravtsov. He needs a real shake up.

 

[Kovalev27]

Gallant has to change things up this isn’t working.

Kakko is at least trying tonight although as usual equates to nothing.

Lafreniere is completely lost. Needs a puck to go off him and in just to get some confidence back.

Panarin I gotta say I’m really souring. He’s a perimeter player. He makes about 50 bad passes that result in turnovers for every one that gets thru and actually works. He’s a power play specialist right now.

It’s really hard to like this team right now. I’ve enjoyed all of about 2 games this year

 

[Boris Zubov]

I have an idea...

Let me guess.....Something involving a taxi?

 

[romba]

Joe's MSG propaganda train is so desperate for anything positive about Laf that he now hypes up a basic 5 foot pass from the d zone into the neutral zone.

That’s half this board in the Laf thread and the ‘patience for top overall pick to do something 3 god damned years into his career’ thread.

But Covid!
But ice time!
But line mates!
But patience!
But playoffs! Yea that one was good for a minute, but regressing back to vanilla nothing this year after a decent playoffs doesn’t get me excited

Rearranging deck chairs on the titanic.

Sadly, so is Mika.

Talent is not this team's problem. The FO and coaching are.

 

[Kovalev27]

Bedard would come here and be on the third line pp2 just like laf and Kakko

 

[DanielBrassard]

Panarin's contract is an anchor, at this point. I didn't think the contract would go south so quickly but here we are. Guy is completely invisible most of the time. Never challenges the middle of the ice and doesn't even try in the defensive zone anymore.

Unironically this team plays the most Gallant style hockey I've seen from them tonight.

If the Rangers stop signing and overpaying for free agents that wouldn’t happen.

I've been thinking the same. Panarin's contract is heading to Bobrovsky territory alarmingly fast.

 

[bleedblue94]

How many coaches and how many front offices?

It's too cush here. Players are too comfortable.

 

[Chaels Arms]

It's kind of funny Panarin invested so much time practicing feeding one timers to Kravtsov which is a situation that will never present itself in game.

His first two years in the league,(135 games), he was shooting at ~17.6%. He's shooting 5.6% this season. Something is off.

 

[TheGortonConspiracy]

Jones nearly made it 1-0 Sharks, so there's that

Imagine if he just roofed it on that shot LMAO

 

[Boris Zubov]

The speed of the Vegas/Edmonton compared to our game is a pretty dramatic difference.

You're the third person I've caught posting truths that people on here do not want to hear. I may have to start giving out fines.
