Not superstitious enough….shouldn’t have even brought it up…..it’s on you now

Reactions:duhmetreE

Ummm, I believe THIS was overlooked in gdt last night. Believe @Mandar owes me a little apology, and even @duhmetre for liking his post over mine. I don't jinx, I predict.
What I don't know, is how to make a good copy post here. Lol

The ends justify the means….in that spirit, I will submit to you a little apology. I’m very glad your prediction came true.

As a diehard Ranger fan for 50 years, the superstitions are nearly impossible to give up.

Yeah buddy, me too. I'm 62. Thanks for the shoutout. I kind of goofed up though. Hidden in that post was the predicting that Tarasenko and Trochek would score. I typed i5 so fast I had forgotten TROUBA, finalizing the T as part of it all. Just missed out on Trochek, lol.

 

[duhmetreE]

any way to tell who the highest scoring players in the month of March for the last 3 years have been?

100% McDavid and it's probably not even close

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

Didn’t there used to be a rule that teams couldn’t play two games less than 24 hours apart?

I feel like we’ve broken that rule 3 times in the past month.

Josie and the p***ycats. definitely wasn't popular when it came out, but it hits the pop culture industry nail right on the head. came out in 2001

5 points out of home ice and last change in the first round.

A win tonight and a Tampa win cuts that to 3pts with 12 to play each.

I want 2nd in the division, start at home and have the extra home game.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Kid line with 2 goals tonight. Chytil really needs to wake up, almost a month of doing nothing

 

[The Crypto Guy]

I honestly would say switch Vesey and Kakko for a game or two just to try and snap him out of it.... but Chytil hasn't been to good either.

Chytil needs to sit before Kakko, who’s drought has been going on much longer than Kakko.

 

[pld459666]

Personally, I let the kid line continue to try to work out their issues. Coach them up of course, but let them continue to take their regular shifts, especially this late in the season.

Their lack or productivity has not really hurt the team.

21-7-4 since January 1st.

5-0-1 in the last six.

Would I like more, absolutely. But I'm not gonna f*** with a kids confidence at this stage of the season. Let him know he has the coaches trust to work out of what he is in right now.

Among the other gaffes on the broadcast last night did anyone else find hilarious/infuriating that ESPN had Kakkos goal drought at "9+" games. I laughed out loud when it was said and THEN followed by a graphic that literally said "9+"

How hard is it to put an actual number lmao

Also I don't get the grief with the kid line. Yes they've been cold for a couple months, but that directly follows a couple months (when we righted the ship on the entire season) where they basically carried the teams offense at even strength. Just give them some grace, slumps happen, and the rest of the forwards have been great anyway. Feels nitpicky for no reason.

Yeah, I caught that too. I had the same reaction, but perhaps the "+" meant they were including the Pens game being played.

Lord of Lentils

March is when Mika's lentil consumption tends to peak, so this would make sense

 

[duhmetreE]

Chytil needs to sit before Kakko, who’s drought has been going on much longer than Kakko.

Chytil is at least skating.

The line is really struggling with getting into the zone and establishing a forecheck. They look hesitatnt and discombobulated.

Kakko needs to automatically move the puck if he has it in the neutral zone. He is way too slow.

 

[Filip Chytil]

Mika Zibanejad, a force to behold,
Consuming lentils, his story is told.
In massive quantities, he devours,
Fueling his body, gaining more powers.

The lentils, a source of protein and might,
Help him crush penguins, with all his might.
On the ice, he dominates,
Scoring goals, leaving opponents in his wake.

With every lentil, he grows stronger,
A force to be reckoned with, no longer
Will anyone stand in his way,
As he consumes his lentils day by day.

So beware, little penguins, be on guard,
For Mika Zibanejad is coming hard,
Fuelled by his lentils, he's unstoppable,
Crushing all who stand in his path, it's undeniable.

7 SOG in his last 5 on the 4th line lol

1 point in 7 games, 0 at es and healthy scratch

I feel like we’ve broken that rule 3 times in the past month.

I think the cutoff on that is 21 or 22 hours between puck drops (ex. playing a Saturday at 7 means they can't play Sunday earlier than 5.)

Great soundtrack too.

 

[Cmox]

Rangers are playing the Ahl Preds tonight. Lots of players are out.

 

[duhmetreE]

no reason not to smack them tonight.

Have we had Halak and Shesty playing well at the same time?

Not that I recall. And Halak has been playing lights out the majority of the season.

Phone battery at 72%. Fil gets #20 tonight

7 SOG in his last 5 on the 4th line lol

Didn't take long for him to find himself on the 4th line
