GDT: Game # 77 - 4/19/2022 - New York Rangers vs Winnipeg Jets - 7pm EST - MSG (Planes, Trains, and Automobiles edition)

[nyr2k2]

Meetings should never be scheduled for 9 am. They should never be scheduled at all, but if they have to be, never 9 am.

I have my calendar set so my "available hours" are between 10-3. LOL. I will take calls and participate in meetings outside of those times, but when people are trying to send a meeting invite and looking at my calendar, I want them to understand that I'm not interested in meeting before 10.

 

[Fitzy]

Chytil sucks on the powerplay.

My boss scheduled a meeting for 9am on Good Friday, when the office was closed.

 

[Beer League Sniper]

Chytil sucks on the powerplay.

Yeah, I don't see where he fits on that unit, but he's better than Goodrow.

Laf is probably the best passer on that unit, and he's net front?

Would really be a boon to PP2 if Zac Jones was in the lineup.

It might help. Seems like the plan with Jones has always been for fall of 22.

My attitude, (Were I a coach at a professional level) is that a 2nd PP unit should be a shooting volume group. You've got 40 seconds, just focus on getting a clean zone entry, and then throw pucks to the net and crash it.

Don't bother trying to set up elaborate passing schemes for high percentage shots. Just get 2, maybe 3 shots on goal and look for rebounds and deflections.

Guys like Goodrow, Blais, etc are good for that.

 

[TriFF51]

We were all Kak teased. Hope he plays before the last regular season game. Going to this one tonight.

PP2 is only interested in setting up Trouba slapshots so this tracks. Laf has the best hands so that ay be why they want him at the net front for rebounds and deflections

He will return as a one-legged alcoholic who is best friends with DeNiro, with four smoking hot non-blondes draped on his remaining limbs.

Better that than with a can of lager, some chicken, a fishing rod, a Newcastle shirt and a dressing gown

 

[bl02]

I personally would start Igor tonight and Georgiev Thursday against the Isles. I want Igor playing Saturday in a potential 1st Round matchup against the Broons

Yes that and we don't need Lee or anyone else running into Shesty. Start Shesty tonight and Georgiev vs Islanders.

You've just described Machinehead.

 

[FultonReed]

John Candy and Steve Martin effin rule.

 

[Larrybiv]

Will place this here as well.
Anyone glancing and dissecting remaining schedules for NYR/CAR, may notice that they play the same team in 3 games, Carolina plays Arizona and Devils x2.
We play Boston, Montreal & Caps. Advantage Canes?

NYR Home 4, Away 2
Canes Home 2, Away 3

BOTH have a stint of 3 games in 4. Difference is... theirs ends with a game vs NYR, (Advantage Rangers?) whereas ours is season ending vs Caps.
Everything pointing to that re-match vs Canes

BTW, why do the Canes only play the Islanders 3x?
We play them 4. Why the difference interdivision? Seems unbalanced. They may have advantage there as well. Islanders will play their hearts out, to screw us big time, (& have our #) while maybe NOT so much vs Canes. Just saying.

Yes, better than Goodrow and probably because he is a "finisher" with better hands? Chytil has his issues finishing, unless backhand.
Chytil better in corners (stronger, I suppose)

 

[Larrybiv]

Yes that and we don't need Lee or anyone else running into Shesty. Start Shesty tonight and Georgiev vs Islanders.

will triple that sentiment with McRanger and yourself. Georgiev has nice history vs NYI and what was said above.

 

[Leonardo87]

I will be going to my very local brewery known as my kitchen for this one. Have my fridge stocked up with some nice DIPA/Hazy IPA's, and Stouts from local breweries. So, I apologize in advance what I may post during the game.

He needs 5 goals , right? To break it? 5 in 6 games gonna be tough.

82 games, 2 games against each team in the west is 32 games. That leaves 50 games against the east. Play everyone in the Atlantic 3 times, that's another 24 games, leaving 26 division games. 7 other teams in the division, so there are 2 teams that only play 3 times. They would need to go to 84 games to balance the schedule.

Carolina has/had 3 games against both Pittsburgh and the Islanders. We have/had 3 games against Columbus and Washington.

 

[duhmetreE]

Chytil sucks on the powerplay.

He has to be in motion to be effective.

 

[MrAlmost]

2 injuries and we are right back to where we were. Bummer.

 

[Machinehead]

2 injuries and we are right back to where we were. Bummer.

Copp is still in the top six instead of Hunt

 

[rangers1314]

Just want Igor to play well and no injuries, thats all.

 

[Machinehead]

I know the f***ing groundhog said six more weeks of winter but we're in like week 11 here.
