Game 41: New York Rangers vs New Jersey Devils, 7pm ET, MSG

[Tob]

If the league didn’t want fireworks, why would they suspend him for exactly 8 games?

Poll incoming

The Big Man is back
Gonna order The Hut for this one

 

[duhmetreE]

I honestly put Kaliyev on the right dot on PP1.

[Ruggs225]

Oh joy another game. Hope to see laf build off his last game.

Interested to see Kalyiev

LFG

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Do we have to?

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

This theme, this team and against the Devils. I think I'll skip this one and get some sleep instead.

Do we have to?

Yes

 

[KennyWu]

Yes

 

[MrAlmost]

Rempe deserves to draw in and prove that he can play effective minutes and show his words aren't just that. He played that game for Hartford and did well. We will see. He will fight MacDermid though. Hopefully it's a good game and no dirty shit or suspensions.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Do we have to?

 

[McRanger92]

Rempe should stand in Markstrom's crease after the whistle and make someone move him. Do this and he'll be effective even if he doesnt have a hit or a shot on goal. He's so in the Devils head they will seethe and react.

And if a Devils crosscheck Panain, Fox or Laf, someone needs to challenge them. Preferably not Rempe because he's jeopardizing his NHL future fighting this ungrateful team's battles.

Season starts today.

 

[zlev]

it sucks that Rempe wasted his stupid shit against Dallas because he's probably gonna get kicked out of the league if he does anything f***ed up tonight

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

Xenforo sounds like something (unnamed Rangers player) would put in his yogurt.

In other news, at least J Hughes won’t beat Igor glove high twice tonight.

 

[Levitate]

Let's go NY Rempe's

Probably for the best. Let them hurl dung at each other early and then hockey can be played.

 

[LOFIN]

Intrigued to see Kaliyev, if Igor is any better, and what type of dumb shit Rempe is going to pull off. I think it's a mistake that his first game after a suspension is a high emotion one against the Devils. Well, the organization and the coach clearly trust him, so hopefully he holds his end of the bargain. A few clean hard hits and a fight would be pretty great.

Was gonna mention something like this.

Rempe needs to get into the habit of being more troll than wrecking ball. He's pretty good at being a troll.

Honestly, the penalties and ejections just take the air out of the building. It's the opposite of what he's looking for.

Just do solid forechecking and don't line anybody up for now. Act like an asshole after the whistle blows.

 

[Captain Monglobster]

Rempe with a monster game. Kaliyev scores his first as a Ranger. Rangers lose 6-3 book it.

Right, like give Little Jackie a nudge and meatheads like Dillon and Bastian and MacDermid will take penalties all night.

The leadership, coaches AND players, need to tell him this because he doesn't know, he's just a kid. Rempe is a meathead too like Trouba. Borderline hits to the head are not a deterrent.

He could carve out a nice niche as an oversized irritant where it's like "ok, what the f*** are you gonna do about it?" because nobody who isn't a fighter can take Rempe. Do something mean and then laugh in their face about it.

And if they are a seasoned fighter? f*** 'em. Let them die mad about it. That's even more annoying.

Only fight if somebody messes with us first. Answer for your own foolishness with a smile.

I don’t like the way the board looks now… anyway I’m headed to the game LGR.
