GDT: Game 39: New York Rangers @ Chicago Blackhawks, 3pm ET, (Another Friggin ABC game, ESPN+)

[Shesterkybomb]

When Molly Walker first reported on Kreider having back issues she included spine/disc stuff in the article.

Then go home and see if you can heal. He's not pulling a messier and actually contributing through the pain.

Vinny needs to be Captain. Get it done, dammit.

Why do you want him traded?

Vinny needs to be Captain. Get it done, dammit.

Still don't understand why it wasn't done the day after the Trouba trade

ABCs inability to have games start on time so that they can dribble pre-game shit is mildly vexing

@Tob enjoys the extra time being taken by ABC to shit on the team

Did anyone show a Laviolette speech this year or last year?

 

[McRanger92]

Vinny needs to be Captain. Get it done, dammit.

He’s earning it, not being handed it like Kreider or Trouba. Cuylle lived with him, and Laf plays on a line with him. He can maybe be the glue

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Why can't hockey have puck drop on the hour?

 

[Boris Zubov]

Just turned it on....Is Kreider a healthy scratch?

 

[Kodiak]

Just turned it on....Is Kreider a healthy scratch?

They're saying it's a UBI.

Upper body day to day was the report

 

[RempireStateBuilding]

It's like dealing with that one friend who is always late. You tell them 3, they're there at 3:30 with a "Sorry, traffic was crazy." The NHL has to start telling ABC that these games are 30m earlier than they actually are.

 

[Captain Lindy]

They're saying it's a UBI.

A what?

Never mind. Upper body injury. LOL

 

[gabevh3]

I’m in lower manhattan having lunch and one of the guys selling vintage clothing on the sidewalk has a Drury jersey for sale.

Should I buy to throw in the trash?

For how much? Does he even know who Drury is?

It isn't any different than when NBC had the games.

 

[Captain Lindy]

Just turned it on....Is Kreider a healthy scratch?

Nope. Mysterious body section injury.

 

[RangersFan1994]

Rangers already take a dumb penalty

 

[Mike in Houston]

Day to day UBI.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Excellent start

 

[turcotte8]

This is the game Louis Domingue starts his Lou Gehrig-like iron man streak

 

[n8]

That ref is on #TeamTank

 

[mike14]

OT: I just learned that you can do deferred salary contracts in the NHL Vatrano $18m/3 years with the Ducks but only a $4.75m cap hit

 

[DanielBrassard]

Lol

 

[Mr Mxmzptlk]

Well, that's a cheap call.

 

[Good Intentions]

Kreider doesnt strike me as a partier but the last few months have changed my impression of him a bit.

He’s definitely not.

Introverted, moody, yes…

He’s married, religious about his conditioning.

20 likely has a million things in his head influencing his play and overall outlook.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Garbage call.

 

[mike14]

It isn't any different than when NBC had the games.

Yup, they all suck
