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

[CasusBelli]

How much effect did Rempe getting his ass kicked early have? On both teams…..

My wife just mentioned that, funnily enough:

 

[Daves a mess]

Drury 24 hrs ago.

"I ain't trading nuthin". Staying pat, jack".

10 mins from now.

" How do I blow up Mika and Troubs NMCs?


"Who can I get for Kaapo, K'Andre and a 1st?

" No fn way I'm resigning that shrimp Ryan Lindgren!"

 

[PalmCoastRanger]

Bread-Zib-CK produced nothing on the PP tonight. So let's see if it works better 5v5...coach, man, come on!

 

[hardnosed]

Miller demoted?

Slow change

 

[Profet]

Once again... No one is willing to take the puck between the dots.

Whoever this team acquires at the deadline, they need to have the physical and mental fortitude to carry the puck away from the boards.

Not much. Just like him kicking arse early in the last game didn't help us at all.
Trouba's early penalty and them scoring on the PP had an effect though

 

[RangerLifer]

This game had trap written all over it. All week we played against hated rivals, so these guys are physically and emotionally spent.

It's almost as if staged fights are not a good idea.

One of the big issues that pop up again & again, year after year, coach after coach is that teams that either

A) pressure & attack

or

B) play heavy

Give us fits. The book is out, so no matter who we face, we're going to have to adjust.

Their biggest achilles heel is guys skating at them in a straight line. They get swallowed up, angle away, and try some indirect pass instead of using effort.

They're almost offended someones trying to make them skate hard or take a hit.

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

Sam taken a back by the trivia answer but not the Rangers play.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Need another decent center for games like this, when the top lines struggle the 3rd could possibly contribute

 

[CommaSynapse]

Miller looks incredibly off. Even his skating looks off. Concerning, really.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Kids: "What's a phonebooth?"

A mini Tardis.

 

[effen]

Damon f***ing Severson just blew past Mika like he wasn't there off a goddamn face off.

 

[17futurecap]

Throw Fox and Gus out there every other shift.

 

[will1066]

Columbus cherry picking at this point

 

[Cmox]

fox/gus
trouba/lindgren
miller/Schneider

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Games like this are also good before the deadline.

 

[2014nyr]

Lafreniere never met a shot he didn't flub. Dude has no composure.

i know what's he even doing out there at this point in the game? he's only scored 4 times in the last 3 games

 

[will1066]

Zib doesn't win puck battles, period. Finding a wing for him is fruitless.

 

[17futurecap]

You don’t have to wonder Joe

 

[NYR94]

Young Fantilli sounds like a rapper

 

[hardnosed]

fox/gus
trouba/lindgren
miller/Schneider

Down by 2. Probably little Trouba/Lindgren

 

[Shesterkybomb]

I still think Roslovic would be a good add for us. Could play wing or center, move up or down the lineup

 

[bl02]

Wait Kakko is playing left wing and Lafreniere RW??? LOL
