GDT: Game 41: New York Rangers @ Washington Capitals, 1pm ET, ESPN+, ABC (Game 1 of a home and home)

[effen]

The Caps are a less talented version of the Trotz Islanders. Just a painful team to watch.

The Caps are an example of having half an AHL forward group doesn't mean you can't play normal North American hockey as opposed to whatever shinny variant the Rangers insist on playing.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Seems like we never score on breakaways, but the opponents always do. Annoying.

We're not as skilled a team as some people think that we are.

 

[Tob]

this espn crew is the ninja and simple plan of hockey broadcasts. you couldn't assemble a less cohesive overrated team if you tried.

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

I know you are excited this game is on ABC. Getting that sweet Emily fix

 

[Boris Zubov]

it's just a brandy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Slivovica, raki, grape brandy's, etc... And mine is aged one too =p

just not a fancy name like cognac or whatever

Anyway my hard liq drink of choice is malt whisky and it's the best AINEC

Grappa tastes nothing like Brandy. Unless you only have access to brandy made in someone's bathtub.

Malt Whisky?...like this one?!?...

 

[hardnosed]

Brodz got exactly what he deserved for seeing TOM WILSON OF ALL f***ING PEOPLE steaming towards him and spinning around thinking that showing his numbers was going to protect him.

Failed intelligence test and consequence rendered all in 1 second.

Yep. Same with Lindgren and Pasta. You can't count on these a holes respecting the game

 

[duhmetreE]

Ok Mess, you'd just put your elbow up

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Shocking two dirty scumbags didn't think it was a boarding penality.

 

[Kovalev27]

I’m with Mess brodz is an idiot and lindgren does this to himself all the time

 

[RangerLifer]

Mess is PISSED at Wilson. He wants a piece of that POS.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

I gather they run with it still since it brings in the profits. No other explanation.

If it's a part of HRR (or whatever they call the "income" shared by league and players), I don't see either side agreeing to drop it. That's probably why they got McDavid to help revamp some of the events.

Brodzinski now very glad he grabbed all the airplane amenities and food while he can

lol that's malt.. whatever)) it's just short for single malt whisky

and ok mine is not even branded grappa... and not made in Italy either. But it's not rocket science to make grape distillate. Georgian chacha is pretty much the same thing, and what I've got is made in Russia and aged a little. Nice cheapo option. Some actual grappas I've sampled tasted weird for sure.

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

Tom Wilson should not be able to wear the full face shield. It should be a constitutional amendment.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

I couldn't give two shits about the all-star game.

I can't remember the last time I watched one. Total waste.

 

[duhmetreE]

you call the instigator not to give the other team the PP but to make it a deterrent to react to clean hits

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

Brodzinski now very glad he grabbed all the airplane amenities and food while he can

I hope he got double miles on his flights.

 

[RangerLifer]

I can't remember the last time I watched one. Total waste.

It is! It's not worth sending the players at all.

 

[will1066]

I hope he got double miles on his flights.

He did. He uses Capital One.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I can't remember the last time I watched one. Total waste.

3 on 3 was such a terrible idea.

 

[Ranger Wolf]

Only real positive in that period is Fox looking like he’s near his normal self

 

[duhmetreE]

3 on 3 was such a terrible idea.

wait the All Star game is 3v3? LOL

 

[GENESISPuck94]

Mess is PISSED at Wilson. He wants a piece of that POS.

He's not pissed at Wilson, he's pissed at Brodzinski for turning his back to the play along the boards.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Only real positive in that period is Fox looking like he’s near his normal self

Yeah but even his goal was the result of forcing a pass instead of just shooting the f***ing puck

 

[n8]

I'm pissed at PK constantly saying "YUP" while other people are talking. Stop interrupting you bum!
