GDT: Game # 48 - Rangers vs Bruins - 7pm EST - MSG

[DanielBrassard]

It better be Jones

 

[Machinehead]

The team either starts the game balls blazing or sleepwalking like a two-week-old rotting corpse.

And without Kakko, I like this lineup as constructed on paper.

It'll be both.

Halfway through the first, they'll be getting outshot 19-2 and be up 3-1.

 

[Crease]

You laugh, until Hajek scores because Boston didn't have adequate time to come up with a gameplan to stop him.

You can’t stop Hajek, you can only hope to contain him.

 

[Machinehead]

Laughing at keeping the 6th defenseman a secret until faceoff. NHL coaches are so extra.

Other sports

Us: "Wow that looked pretty bad."

The team: "He has some tightness in the patella tendon but the scans came back negative. 2-3 weeks."

Hockey

Us: "Holy shit that guy just got decapitated on the ice!!!"

The team: "Upper body."

Every team in every game can easily fit into your either/or scenario.

Well, I've covered myself well, then.

The guy we have to watch is McAvoy...he likes the big open ice hits like Trouba does . He is dangerous as is Frederich . Hopefully Reaves gets in this game early tonight....that is something else we could use to start our road to the playoffs and get things rolling ....a good licking on somebody !

 

[Nickmo82]

Do make the win!

Interesting to see if Laf comes back after the extended break with the same jump.

 

[Fitzy]

I'd like to see Jones too- but the fact that Hajek is probably more trusted to kill penalties might tilt the edge in his favor. (As far as the coaching choice goes)

 

[Row I Goon]

Stoppppp I was getting over him

Not alone, sir. Miss the big fella too….

 

[Thirty One]

 

[Whoot Whoot]

good to be back

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Not to be the grumpy guy since we just got back, but Gallants insistence on playing Nemeth and McKegg really irks me. What has Nemeth done to earn that spot ? He's been horrible. Mckegg has shown nothing that Barron can't provide at this time. Letting our young kids grow is only going to help this team down the stretch.

Fair point. Nemeth has been bad and Mckegg is blah. I would love to see a Schneider-Jones 3rd pair but Gallant is never going to put 2 rookies together. Maybe next year.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Have these two teams even met this season lol I was trying to think back to the last match but couldn't recall.. Unless I missed it.

Yes, Rangers beat the Bruins I think 5-2 in Boston the day after Thanksgiving.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Last time the Rangers played I didn't live under a tyrannical dictatorship!

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Please be Schneider-Jones on the 3rd pair. I wouldn't bet on it though.

Someone needs to cave in Frederich's chest. Get on it Troubs.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Lucky for you guys looks like I'll have a late work night.

day to day.

[Kane One]

RIP

Sucks every time

 

[MyLoveIsBlue]

Marchand is in fact playing tonight, in a clever disguise.

 

[Kane One]

Laughing at keeping the 6th defenseman a secret until faceoff. NHL coaches are so extra.

And let’s all look back and laugh at the Isles keeping the Chara and Parise signings secret.

 

[duhmetreE]

Please be Schneider-Jones on the 3rd pair. I wouldn't bet on it though.

Stop being so negative

 

[Alluckks]

Jesus our bottom 6 is brutal right now. Just gonna be board clogging and hoping to limit other teams chances with those 2 lines.

Gingras has a baby bump
