GDT: Game #46 - RANGERS @ Islanders - 7pm - MSG+

[Filthy Dangles]

Lindgren dangled badly twice tonight for Grade A chances.

 

[Leonardo87]

Kakko is bad tonight

He made a good play to enter the zone with Laf in front of the net but then got man handled off the puck and turned it over. Lol.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Lindgren had an absolutely terrible period.

 

[KevinFinnerty]

Bitetto is trash

 

[Anthony5967]

2 games in a row where the player thinks it's better to shove the opponent instead of tying up his stick

Why this guy is playing over Jones is mind boggling. The front office and coach needs to evaluate Bitetto? Idiots

 

[LokiDog]

That would have been too on script.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

This defense is gonna burnt out Hasek.

 

[DudMan28]

Lindgren got clowned

Twice in that period

 

[FireGerardGallant]

Man without Trouba were SOL. Hopefully we come back

 

[Richard Banger]

Lindgren worst period of his career

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

lindgren with his worst period in a long time

he was a trainwreck

going from four games against the devils to the isles is a pretty big adjustment

 

[CLW]

I thought he has done a good job getting the puck to the net, first on the PP and on the shift before the goal.

Yep some bumpy pucks notwithstanding. But the Rangers have struggled, no real coherent play. Typical game for a team that's not used to the tempo. Should come out better for the next period.

 

[LeetchisGod]

This game is showing that we're not ready for primetime. Need much more physicality and a better third pair. This game has a playoff vibe and we have been found wanting.

 

[Rempe73]

He made a good play to enter the zone with Laf in front of the net but then got man handled off the puck and turned it over. Lol.

Yea I mean that was good but overall the Isles are too good defensively.

 

[RGY]

WHY DID WE SWITCH UP THE FORWARD LINES?!?!? We lost a defenseman, not a forward... WTF are you doing?? yea we had to kill 2 penalties but we were multiple shifts removed from the last PK and the line combos were still shuffled... and it leads to mayhem.


AND WHY THE f*** IS BITETTO PLAYING???? WTF

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Someone is going to have to explain to me why Bitetto earned another game with how bad he was the other night leading to a benching

Quinn...

He's not an NHL level defenseman. He makes Hajek look like Lidstrom.

 

[Tob]

Against a trash team like the Devils, you can ice Tanner Glass and you'd be fine. In this game, playing Bitetto, playing Rooney and Howden over Gauthier, all of these things will add up. That Kreider line is a mess. The Howden line is terrible except for Crab trying to make offensive plays.

Quinn and the Rangers look like an All star team against the Devils but snap back to reality, college coach and a middling team.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

boston up 2-0. we have to win.

 

[AWall THE CLAW]

How in the holy **** do we give up these chances at the end of periods with like 7 seconds left and the puck isn't even in our zone. Over and over and over. Play to the ****** horn. It's not hard. The horn is very loud and it will let you know when you can stop playing.

 

[Off Sides]

After re-watching that goal again, pretty much everyone F-ed up.

 

[duhmetreE]

Doesn't look like we were ready to play the biggest game of the season. Is anyone surprised?

 

[Black Aces]

I speak the truth! You can't handle the truth, poor little baby!

Just give it a rest.

 

[Cmox]

That would have been too on script.

I think I would’ve shut off the game

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Bitetto is horrible, good lord. Every shift with him out there is a fire drill. Great coverage on that goal, punching the guy in the shoulder instead of making the squirt level play and picking up his stick.

If Quinn is coaching to make the playoffs how the hell is he in the lineup?

 

[CLW]

Someone is going to have to explain to me why Bitetto earned another game with how bad he was the other night leading to a benching

He's a vet. Can't expose the kids to tough games, might lose out on that precious playoff spot.
