GDT: Game 20: New York Rangers vs St. Louis Blues, 7pm ET, MSG

[SA16]

Also Kreider is 10000% a healthy scratch that they’re disgusting as a dtd thing.

He deserves it but instead of getting the trade winds going, they could have just called him a HS and it would have sent the same message.

They must have done a really good job convincing him to fake an injury last game and go to the room briefly all to set up a future healthy scratch for himself.

Did he return?

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

Did he return?

He did, but it's not uncommon to see things manifest more severely postgame or the next day. Pretty frequently day-to-day injuries are less severe in the immediate given adrenaline is high during gametime.

He's almost certainly dealing with something. This isn't a scratch despite how deserving he is.

 

[will1066]

Did he return?

Yeah, Buch will be a late lineup addition tonight in a Blueshirt, while Kreider will don a road Blues kit.

 

[Hire Sather]

Now if we manage to win a game people will say it's because of Rempe

 

[Atax]

Exciting to watch a young guy play his first NHL game.

Last year somehow people attributed a Presidents' Trophy winning team's good record over like 20 games to a 4th liner getting 5 minutes a night.

Meh I dont mind people complaining and ranting during GDT. Just the way of things. I just want to see him be the energizer bunny that he supposedly is.

That being said, I give it to the 2nd period.

 

[leetch99]

It would be fun to see a throw back type game . This one should have some emotion in it with the Blues with a new coach and all and then Rempe in for the Ranger emotion since most nights we barely have a pulse .

 

[Harbour Dog]

Don't mind what we've got done with the middle six for this game. With guys out, this looks like as good a way as any to work in Edstrom and Berard.

The constant ranting makes GDTs a difficult read.

 

[will1066]

Rempe and Edstrom with Carrick. WCW Skyscrapers, activate.

WCW. Where the big boys play.

 

[romba]

Trouba is NOT a complete waste. He’s a teaching example for my 10 year old son who plays ice hockey. I always pause my stream while Trouba is on the ice and use him as the example for how not to defend. He’s so concerned about his lack of speed he’s always backing into the low slot regardless of opposition positioning, offering his ass to the goalies to sniff while covering no one in front of the net which leaves someone else open in the slot or dots OR he’s double covering someone leaving someone else open in the slot/dots. It’s so frustrating to watch.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

A team is not talented enough when Trouba and Lindgren are regulars.

Ok yeah - They are definitely subpar for their positions on the team and you can point out other areas as well but generally speaking their is a lot of talent on this team.

You don't win a presidents trophy and and get to within a couple games of the final if you don't have talent.

My point is they are resting on their laurels and some of their talent is obviously aging. So you need to put in more work and not coast along and be complacent thinking someone else will bail you out.

How long until we start wondering why we didn't go after Montgomery earlier?

It's winter. They just went on a long-ass road trip. So there is totally 10000% chance that Kreider did not contract a cold or flu or the VID. 10000%

Message Is being sent regardless what the nature of Kreider missing the game is about.

I missed the EDM game. Was Kreider terrible? He could not have been worse than Mika has been the last 12 games. I gotta believe it's just a bug. Insane he is a HS before Mika.

 

[Ruggs225]

Im so excited to watch this game.

How long until we start wondering why we didn't go after Montgomery earlier?

Its not the coach.

But i would kill to have Torts coach this group. The Pressers would be epic and half the team would be benched daly.

I think cuylle, chytil and Kakko would play 45 min a night haha

 

[MrAlmost]

How long until we start wondering why we didn't go after Montgomery earlier?

Oh...about 10ish pm tonight.

 

[CasusBelli]

Also: I wonder if CK is actually injured, or if PL is actually scratching him to send a message, only telling the media it's an injury to spare CK the public embarrassment. It would be pretty low to do that to a guy whose jersey will surely be up in the rafters.

Everyone was terrible in the EDM game.

 

[Lion Hound]

Lets go Boys!!!!

You would think Mika would excel in an EDM game. Ok I shall see myself out...
