GDT: Game 58: New York Rangers @ Pittsburgh Penguins, 3:30 ET, (Game is on TNT)

[Kodiak]

Is this game even worth watching?

I’m hoping that drinking and shitposting in the GDT with you guys will make this bearable. Lately, it’s been far too often where I’ve turned the game off early.

 

[Daves a mess]

I think both the system and players have to be addressed. Too much confusion and chasing the puck imo. I said months ago I would just play a simplified zone.

This squad as built is the last team in the league that should play man on man inside their blue line.

2 more weeks of this James Blunt sad song, get your 1st rounder back, and nuke this core.

Unpopular take. Listen on Bread and Fox.

 

[Bob Richards]

I will watch this likely tragedy.

I will also be playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance II and bonking people on the head with war hammers pretending that they are all different Rangers.

I'm officially hate-watching. Idgaf what happens from here out. I'm not rooting for them to lose. I just expect them to. There's not a single player i am emotionally attached to other than Will Borgen. All of them can f*** off.

 

[Whoot Whoot]

Going bird watching instead

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Is anyone seriously going to watch this game?

I agree. Sometimes simple is best.

LOL it's like you can't call every penalty.

They will predictably come out flying. But does it require being straight up embarrassed every time for them to play with some fire? Why does this particular group of grown men require a kick in the pants every time to get going?

Sneak peek of the Rangers next alternate jerseys....

Of course we are. We are NYR fans. Unfortunately probably the most loyal fans in all of sports.

At this point I am rooting hard for guys like 93, Smith, CK to put up points and look halfway decent to recoup some assets we have lost in the Chytil trade. We need a young center and a first rounder and go from there.

The team has to earn me watching them play. Also, this fanbase is not the most loyal fanbase. People are literally calling for the entire team to get traded because of a shitty year, including their best players. 93, Smith, and CK are not the only ones this fanbase wants traded.

We are loyal to the team not certain individual players. You can root for your team/ be loyal and want to trade certain guys at the same time. One has nothing to do with the other IMO.

I'm going to continue an X-Files binge instead. Better chance of Mulder uncovering the truth than this team suddenly finding some gumption.

Also, Scully > Emily.

People want to trade the entire team, hilariously thinking that this will make the Rangers a dynasty or something.

IF we manage to win today and come out flying there will be gullible people on here believing the shenanigans. Its all a facade

I would encourage all Rangers fans to not skip their plans - for instance, I would have LOVED to watch todays game, but I realized I have an appointment watering all the fake plants in my house and my neighbors houses.

Don’t overwater them especially neighbors

TBF it worked for Chicago & Pitt.

 

[Mike in Houston]

I'll take a Chris Kreider PPG to move up to the top all-time today.

Early goal against confirmed

Within a minute of start or end of a period to be more precise

 

[Jack Hanson]

Liverpool beat City at the Etihad. They can't ruin my day today.

Como beat Napoli 2-1 after they scored a goal on themselves in the 1st part of the game. Thats some Rangers level f***ing up. My day is already a sad one M Salah having one heck of a season btw. Cant say Liverpool winning today surprises me at all. I turned it off at 2-0 about 2/3 of the way through, it was pretty one sided.

 

[FoxysExpensiveNYDigs]

Going to need extra beer for this one

Tbh put a Rangers logo on it and I f*** with it

I'd personally like to see Sykora, Othman, Jones, JT Miller and the Borgenator!
