I don't think I'll be watching this so I'm worried it might go down south))) I watched all the games during the streak... OTOTH I watched all the losses as well))

The PGT got locked while I was going to say that @Machinehead says we're ass for not simply passing around the Flyers. I'd say (and it's not my vision, someone's who's much more literate tho) Torts set them up to be hard to play against, like he did with NYR. It was a playoff style game. And again it highlighted our problems.

Re: the Philly game since that’s closed now, I think in a series you plan for a lot of stuff Philly was doing and take care of that. A lot of it was the rangers spacing too far apart and Philly playing tight and killing the passing lanes. Adjust to that and you breakout and transition a lot better which shortcuts a lot of their attack

Anyways, gonna expect Columbus to be another bottom feeder playing like this is their playoff time so rangers will probably have to pick up the pace

What goon do they have that will challenge rempe right off the draw

WOuld be nice if they don't really wheel out any, but Matt makes enough smart hits to make it easier for us to play CBJ.
 
Last PGT was locked before I got this on, but...

Professional boxing judges are literally told to give a lot more weight to punches that inflict more damage. That is why a knockdown gives the boxer who delivers it an automatic 2 point advantage. Fights are also stopped if a fighter gets too badly cut to continue. That is damage. Only in amatuer boxing is the point system or punch landed count implemented. So the athletes can theoretically concentrate more on technique, but even there, it only takes one punch to make all the ring generalship in the world go up in smoke.

While I agree that Flyers are where they’re because of Torts coaching the Rangers not playing their best were able to get a road win there, and personally I don’t think they looked that bad based on the specific game was developing. If certain Rangers played at the level they recently showed (yes it’s Trouba and Zibanejad I’m referring to) I don’t see how the Rangers won’t be able to move past them in playoffs.

Good chance yesterday would've been a loss if they weren't feeling confident, which the streak has helped. During a long winning streak, a lot of things need to happen, like people going on benders, some luck, surprise faces stepping up, stronger bond in the dressing room, and cohesive hockey most of the time. They've gotten all of these. Let's not forget Connor Mackey popping off started the whole thing.

Well done my friend by asking to be a potential lightning rod in GDT / PGT

Yup, long win streak requires some luck for sure. For context this streak corresponds to sweeping 2 playoff series 4:0 and going up 2:0 in the third.

Audition for Jenner.

Cuylle Jenner Kakko could be nice.... cost of acquisition... not so much

For some reason JD has said that Jenner is completely untouchable and won’t be traded ever ever.

I mean he’s a fine player but that seems extreme, especially for a horrible bottom dweller garbage team like Columbus who are years away from competing (and are going to beat us tonight)
