GDT: Game 59: New York Rangers @ Columbus Blue Jackets - 6pm ET, MSG

[ReleasO The KakkO]

Trouba is on fire! As in dumpster.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

We look dog shit defensively against this team AGAIN.

 

[will1066]

Unreal

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Trouba is a mess but Trocheck decides to double up on a guy instead of covering the guy who is open

 

[turcotte8]

I told you idiots to play defense

Best we can do is fall to the ice...

 

[DanielBrassard]

That line is an adventure defensively. I’m afraid they will be not so good against a good playoff team.

 

[Row I Goon]

Honestly, forget the hockey

Just get the two main goons to fight and whoever wins gets the points

 

[Megustaelhockey]

That replay was telling. That was the Madame Web of defensive sequences. Yeesh.

 

[RangersFan1994]

This team has to be the dumbest on the ice in the nhl

 

[turcotte8]

Why is Lindgren is deep?

 

[mike14]

I told you idiots to play defense

But they heard it as "play defense like idiots"...

 

[chosen]

When a goalie leaves the net and comes up empty, it's on him.

 

[DoTheBlue]

Timeout

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

lmaooo hahahahah trouba wtf.

 

[Chytilmania]

I’ll feel better once Sam tells us Columbus is -20 in the 3rd or something like that.

 

[LORDE]

"Tough start"

That's one way of putting it

 

[mike14]

I'm going to start doing shots of espresso every time we pointlessly ice the puck so that I never have to sleep again

 

[will1066]

Jfc. Trouba did not know what to do

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

LOL. Shocker this would be your take.

Where’s the lie tho

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Goodrow is killing me slowly

 

[turcotte8]

I'm going to start doing shots of espresso every time we pointlessly ice the puck so that I never have to sleep again

Your heart would explode

 

[SML2]

In what defensive scheme is it the defensemans job to pin a player to the sidewall out by the face off dot? Because that's the system KAM is playing.

 

[Maliks PlusMinus]

We are having a great season.
Can we stop hating on everything?
Especially defensive dmen? Been here defending Malik, Girardi, Staal, Lindgren etc for years. It’s like people genuinely don’t understand what they’re doing and how often they cover their partners.

The dream pair isn’t Clendening and MDZ, guys

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Games like this reinforce what I said in the game against the Islanders... this team knows full well what it takes to win. They're just very selective about when they decide to do the work.

 

[IronBloodedLion]

The play looks like a business decision. Just a lot of sloppiness.
