Gonna see prep lines for Thursday

Kreider Zib Tarasenko
Panarin Trocheck Vesey/Goodrow rotating
Laf Chytil Kakko
Motte Goodrow Vesey


Goodrow had 2nd most ice time of all forwards last game against the Kings, over 18 minuges. Vesey played about 12 and Motte about 11. Goodrow was getting a majority of the double shifts.
 
With K'Andre suspended, Carpenter sent down and Lindgren injured, how could they afford not to dress Kane? I don't get it. They're not only going to be short one defenseman, but also one forward...and that's assuming Zibanejad plays tonight and is 100%.

Not crazy about being so short-handed, especially since we play again tomorrow. We can't afford to grind our guys into the ground and risk injury.
 
Only thing that would be more entertaining than Kane making his debut is seeing Torts flip shit after we score 7+
I'm still hoping for the Torts-DeAngelo throw down!! I can't believe those two haven't had a major brouhaha by now.

If we don't have enough players I'm sure Gallant will play PP1 the whole game.
Nope....he puts Halak in goal and has Shesty fill in.

These next two days are going to be an absolute circus. Need to just get thru them without falling apart. Bright spotlight on this team right now
 
On the topic of pizza, have any of you that experienced New York's finest ever try the secret hidden pizza joint in the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas? Wondering how it stacks up...

Sounds interesting!


Was on business in Tampa past year. Heading home one of the people I was traveling with says you have to try the NY Pizza in the Tampa Airport. I laugh, saying what is it like Sbarro or something.

We go there and Damn! The pizza wasn't just good it was excellent! Blown away.
 
So this is really the first year since, I think for a lot of us, 2015 that we're heading into the playoffs with some serious expectation of a cup run.

Been a NYR fan since 1998, years like this have been rare. I didn't expect cup finals in 2014- I did in 2015, but that was the last time I really thought we had a shot at the cup.

It's actually kind of nerve wracking. Going into the playoffs as an underdog comes with a lot less pressure.
 
Rangers are permitted to dress less than 18 skaters today because they don’t have the cap space for a call up.

Kreider - Zibanejad - Tarasenko
Panarin - Trocheck - Vesey
Lafreniere - Chytil - Kakko
Motte - Goodrow

Mikkola - Fox
Schneider - Trouba
Harpur

Miller, Lindgren and Kane are on the active roster and count against the cap but are unable to dress due to suspension, injury, and personal reasons.

Kane fills out the forward corps tomorrow. Assuming Lindgren is not available tomorrow, Rangers will be permitted to exceed the cap tomorrow with an emergency recall (Hajek or Jones?) to round out the defense.

There’s a secret pizza place in the Cosmo? I’m flying out April 3rd, I need to know now lol
If you're going to go out of your way for pizza in Vegas, go to Good Pie. If you're staying at the Cosmo, sure give Secret Pizza a shot.

Coming from the east coast where you have good pizza at your fingertips, it's not worth the price, nor the wait in line, especially because the pizza is never consistent. Even at it's best there's nothing special about it.
 
Where is the pineapple in all the pizza pics.....like toughness in games LOL....you need pineapple on pizza to top it off and a glass of milk !!!

Pineapple!!???

Ed has been a bad influence to some of you. Lol.
 
I think it would have been cheaper to get two acela and game tickets for tonight then to go to the Garden on any given day.

I was actually looking at going to tomorrow’s game but that idea was last week, prices were crazy then. can imagine them now.

They’ll be fine couple guys that don’t usually get to play as much will play some more mins. Would love to see the kids get a bulk of that. Including Schneider.

More concerned with the mental part of it. Crazy week full of distractions and lack of routine and balance

You know these guys are humans and just packing up their shit instantly when traded and going to a new city requires some coordination.
