GDT: Game 45 - New York Rangers @ Los Angeles Kings, 10:30pm, MSG,MSG2

[Shesterkybomb]

Seems every team is now doing it on every power play. I thought it was stupid the first time I saw it....now it just looks idiotic.

Forcing anything that isn't there won't work, players need to adjust to what they are seeing, the drop back was supposed to be another option if you couldn't carry it in but it's unfortunately become a go to.

 

[Ranger Wolf]

I didn’t think they could look worse than last game but I was wrong

 

[KevinFinnerty]

might be another 1 goal game tonight by the Rangers. inexcusable putrid offensive effort.

 

[Kodiak]

Agreed. Trouba looks good on the power play

We sometimes forget that Trouba was an offensive defenseman when we acquired him. Then we saw he was big and physical so we used him as a defensive defenseman.

 

[TGWL]

Goodrow dumps the puck for a chase way before he even gets to the player. Wtf is that supposed to do.

 

[Tob]

someone hit a f***ing player. Show some f***ing interest

 

[ReleasO The KakkO]

I can see Mika and his wife play with each other's hair as they cuddle and small talk on the couch

Gross, but

Depends on where the chaser is in relation to the blueline i guess

 

[RangerLifer]

We're getting slaughtered on face offs too. 8 for 24

Cuylle and Trouba are the only ones allowed for some reason lol

 

[DanielBrassard]

Unbearable

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Can someone who has better Xs and Os understanding than me explain why the Kings are literally unimpeded getting to every loose puck in their own zone and breaking out with ease?

 

[Fitzy]

You guys are jealous of Mika’s Persian flow and it shows

 

[Gordon Bombay]

“Yeah? Tofu again?”

Fox has tried to imitate Trouba twice now

Theres very little threat of body contact unless Cuylle is on the ice.

 

[hardnosed]

Fox has tried to imitate Trouba twice now

Was just writing that. And he's missed completely both times

 

[Machinehead]

Ironically the last time they did try anything else it worked for half a period and they went right back to the bromances

That's the thing, too, the times he's tinkered this year, it's given us a boost.

Next game, it's right back to the same stale old shit.

We're not that good. Nothing we do should be untouchable.

And even if you are f***in 35-4-3, see what else works. The team is 23 guys, not a few lines and pairs. You need other plans for injuries and cold streaks.

Vegas just won the Cup and their lines go all over the place. This team has such a safe culture and it's exhausting.

What I'm really jealous of is his scam paycheck.

 

[Tob]

This is like team Istanbul playing against team Canada

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I didn't know possession in the offensive zone was allowed.

 

[Kakko]

Feel like I'm back in 2014 and want to die

 

[will1066]

Was just writing that. And he's missed completely both times

Maybe he's trying to rouse up the team, but that's not his game

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Kakko atleast adds a little life to that line.

You've obviously mistaken this for Friday Night Fights.
