GDT: Game 53: New York Rangers vs Boston Bruins, 7pm ET, (TNT, Max)

[GG96]

It’s like they have to get scored on to get into the game

 

[ReleasO The KakkO]

Bread passes BEHIND Zib’s skates wtf

 

[Profet]

This team seems to miss the net so much more than other teams.

 

[TGWL]

Lol at Laf being nice with no follow through hit on that.

 

[DanielBrassard]

This is horrific hockey

 

[2014nyr]

For someone whos got high end hockey iq on the puck…laf is borderline braindead without it. Im as big a fan of him as anyone and have been since day 1…but it blows my mind how bad he is at closing on pucks in pursuit…like he gets into perfect position to cause a turnover and completely whiffs on making contact to separate the puck

 

[NCRanger]

It's too bad Kenny is national. I'm so used to his voice, he should be Sam's replacement

I know a lot of us think Kenny is still a young guy. Thing is, he really isn't. He may realistically have 15-20 years left, tops.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

A couple of really good plays by Mika on that kill

He’s always remained good on the kill

 

[ReleasO The KakkO]

Igor way out of position for a wrap around

 

[godot]

man this cuylle kid is great, we should bench him more often

 

[FoxysExpensiveNYDigs]

They are skating well. Good D too

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Same shift Mika almost gives it away at the blueline and then just fumbles the puck for no reason on another play. The guy can't make a simple hockey play.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

He’s always remained good on the kill

There was a pretty long stretch at the end of 24 when he was less effective there too.

 

[MillerTime79]

What a f***ing snoozefest of a game thus far

 

[will1066]

That line is in danger of getting caved, with the risky passes, the puck fumbling and inability to exit their end cleanly

 

[Profet]

I know a lot of us think Kenny is still a young guy. Thing is, he really isn't. He may realistically have 15-20 years left, tops.

His father went to 80... So thats what...? almost 25 years from now.

 

[ReleasO The KakkO]

Lavi has them playing this BS man-to-man defense again ?!??!!

 

[DuneGoon84]

Mika is so weak with his stick. That's the most frustrating part.

 

[Atax]

Last man back? Better try a cute pass to no one.

 

[Fitzy]

I think Mika can work long term on the wing, but not loaded up with Panarin and Miller.

 

[Profet]

It's the Rongo way.

 

[Atax]

It's the Rongo way.

Yep. Fox a foot away from the net? Better force a pass.

This is the way.

 

[NickyFotiu]

What the heck. I'm embracing the playoff push. It may be futile, and I hope Drury doesn't give up any more futures at the deadline, but if I get playoff hockey this year, I'll take it.

I don't think we've done playoff push avatars since like 2015. Anyone game?

Edit: Maybe we did the Sam/Papa Johns pizza theme a couple of years after that. Don't think we've had them since.

Need to make the playoffs in Sam's last season.

as good a pivot as any for the guy and certainly easier than trying to trade him

Plus Beecher basically walked him
