GDT: Game # 26: New York Rangers vs Los Angeles Kings, 7pm ET, MSG

[Brutananadilewski]

Are we still suck on 3 SOG?

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Do we have our backup PA announcer tonight? Where's Joe Tolleson?

Never mind. Joe is working. Just hadn't heard him announce anything yet and heard some other person's voice in an in-arena feature.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Awful shot Vinnie lol

 

[Kords]

Sold that one lol

 

[effen]

A battle of 1-3-1s

They are standing the Rangers up at the redline. Next level disrespect. Zero fear they will make a move on them.

You beat that in a few ways, but the best way is to brace yourself and lay them the f*** out when they think you're gonna try to dance around on them. Man up.

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

we''ll never score again, probably shutout tonight

Will be 5 straight periods now.

 

[Profet]

Here it is... if the rangers don't score on this call I have bad feelings.

 

[Row I Goon]

Laf’s zone entry a thing of beauty.

 

[Jauffre]

Was thinking 05-06 Jagr for trivia of course, looks like he managed 8 or 9 home games to open that season

 

[Larrybiv]

Best shot Zbad has had in a week.

 

[Kords]

Two good teams playing strong Defense. I aint mad.

 

[B17 Apricots]

Uneventful 1st

 

[Row I Goon]

Team - “we’re doing our best, coach”

Lavi -

 

[Tob]

Just lost $30,000 betting over 0.5 anytime loogies in the 1st period

 

[Captain Lindy]

They don’t want to stop play if they don’t have to. Hated that they would stop the play for that and half the time players did it on purpose to get a whistle.

It ends up killing more time with no movement along the boards.

 

[majordomo]

What this team needs is for Kreider to say "enough already" and put the team on his back until the rest of them are shamed into working again.

How many years have people been saying this....hmmmmm.

 

[Jauffre]

Lindgren please stop attempting offense

Guy could have an empty net breakaway and I'd still be 50/50 as to whether he buries it

ZERO offense. And the hilarious thing is that he gets good chances fairly regularly.

They could easily have 10 to 12 shots. But they all inexplicably refuse to shoot.

I think Gretz had 10 in 96

 

[Kovalev27]

Fine with that period. We needed to button up get back to basics and I think we did there. Need to get more pucks to the net. Story of the year I know

 

[majordomo]

It ends up killing more time with no movement along the boards.

That's what the league wants.....less stoppages of the clock.

 

[mike14]

At least we looked engaged for all of that period which is a nice change.
Next step is remembering how to score

 

[effen]

Kings are hard standing up at the red line and blue line and literally standing against the boards, daring the Rangers to have enough speed or skill to cut in and make a move or enough strength to push them off.

Rangers have neither. Looks like a bunch of dads playing against 11 year olds.

this is why Miller needs to be paired with Fox.

Jagr was ROBBED of the Hart trophy that year. He was an absolute BEAST.
