Is Jones dressed? Just for warmups or its somebody out?

It's a special game... I'm sure everyone on the active roster is out there for warmups.

Saw #60 too. Guess that's AB

 

[Row I Goon]

Ugh. Advertised as 7am local time puck drop. Gonna start about 8am.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

They should get rid of the outside games period.

Nah - just get rid of the sun. It's a very overrated nuclear reactor.

 

[lakeshirts37]

why wouldnt the NHL just peg this for a 4pm start?

Because now they get another hour of ad revenue, concession revenue, etc.

MetLife is such an ugly, POS stadium lol.

Incredible that they build this giant air conditioning unit with seats and then every stadium built since looks like a spaceship.

Boggles my mind how places like Atlanta, Minneapolis, LA, etc got those cool-ass stadiums and we end up with MetLife.

This is a novelty game. I do love the spectacle, but the quality of hockey will be low. Would t be surprised if we lose to these ham and eggers. Conditions favor their style of hockey

I forgot this was today. LGR.

This is definitely true. I’m curious to see how the NYR under Lavi adapt to these conditions.

What is this word “adapt” that you speak of? Unfamiliar term…

Sorry OT, but isn't the soccer world cup final in NY 2026? Is it at Metlife? I heard something about it but don't know if its confirmed.

Never mind


Is rempe playing?

Dear NHL: look into this whole sun thing and its effect on outdoor games

Both time of days suck. Sun you cant see and night you cant see the puck if it goes high enough.

 

[NYR94]

Wtf rangers didnt play isles at all in 2023? crazy scheduling

 

[RangersFan]

Bread looking like the 3rd Bure brother there. Never noticed how much he looks like Pavel.

 

[hackeyman]

Fishsticks suck and it being an outdoor arena we're talking frozen fishsticks so an even bigger suck ! Rangers with the Stadium win 21-0 !

 

[will1066]

I was kinda hoping I could watch this game since the supposed start time is 10pm my time. But I guess not, if the puck drop is closer to 11pm. Got work tomorrow after all.

What's another hour difference?

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Never mind


Is rempe playing?

Yes. 4th line on Goodrow’s right.

 

[JRinNYC]

Let’s Go Rangers!! From section 338.

 

[Profet]

Never mind


Is rempe playing?

Yep. Confirmed.

 

[Machinehead]

I switched over at 3:30 thinking the masturbation would be over for a f***ing 3:00 start.

I guess the f*** not.

 

[will1066]

Yep. Confirmed.

Rempe and Edstrom raise the team's average height by half a foot
