Must win.

 

[Ruggs225]

That third line is woof.

i think the 4th is actually better

and why is Mckegg in. Greco outplayed him by a mile.

 

[Cmox]

Boo to MckEgg still in the lineup

 

[bbny]

Seeing McKegg in the lineup is triggering some PTSD caused by Quinn's obsession with Howden...like, can we not?

 

[MyLoveIsBlue]

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Unreal after the game Grecco had that he can't crack this lineup.

 

[haveandare]

McKegg over Greco is a real head scratcher. Also, Risto is already scratched?

It wouldn't be the Rangers if the coach didn't love a crappy player.

 

[NYR94]

Greco had 5 shots on goal but I guess that wasn't enough.

 

[romba]

Thought the game was tomorrow night, I love the world right now! LFG

As for McKeg(g), he PKs well, doesn’t make defensive zone mistakes, and generally generates at least one high danger chance per game via hard forecheck on the 4th line. Don’t compare him to Howden.

I’d love to see Greco back in but I get the decision by the coach. NHL coaches love stability, and a rookie will fluctuate game to game, McKegg won’t.

 

[NYR94]

For Ristolainen, he's just not fully recovered from COVID.

agreed but next game Hunt is in and McKegg spares

by the deadline he’s waived to make room for a rental

 

[Black Tank]

Hot damn, that's a big, heavy forward group for the Rangers and the cryers aren't known for their defensive skills. I'd like to see us forecheck the f*** out of them no matter what.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

That's so f***ed up that Greco didn't get another game tonight but useless McGegg and Gettinger are playing.

 

[Kocur Dill]

Who is Greco?

I've been out of the loop apparently since this late night Western swing.

Tweener who grew up a Rangers fan in Queens, his dad was a firefighter who died of his 9/11 injuries. So a lot of people would be pulling for him and he looked great in his one game against the Sharks. 5 SOG and he was flying out there

 

[Richard Banger]

Really need to close out the road trip with a W. Also get Mcshitter out of the lineup please.

 

[Fitzy]

Philly must be thinking rebuild sooner rather than later. Not winning and plenty of guys in their 30s.

Just fired AV so naturally rebuilt is coming.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Pre-Game Media Availability. Mika Zibanejad, Jacob Trouba and Coach Gerard Gallant.

 

[cheech70]

lets go .....Dave Schultz- Rick Leach-Bobby Clark

 

[Synergy27]

I’ll echo the “where’s Greco” sentiment and also throw a quick “let’s f*** these guys up” out there.

Greco. If you’re reading this. Stick to it. We love you.

 

[will1066]

They're not going to put Greco on his off-wing. I'm not advocating The Legg, but it is what it is with Reaves and Gauthier returning.
