GDT: Game # 78 - New York Rangers @ New York Islanders - 7:30pm EST - MSG (Nicholas Cage edition)

[CommaSynapse]

With that, Panarin has jumped up to the 3rd-most assists in a season by a Rangers player.

Brian Leetch (1991-1992) - 80
Sergei Zubov (1993-1994) - 77
Artemi Panarin (2021-2022) - 73

 

[I Eat Crow]

JG Pageau is out on COVID protocol so this game doesn't count.

I'm not surprised by this. The Islanders only play the Rangers like it's Game 7 of the Cup Finals at MSG. Otherwise they're shite. It's uncanny really.

 

[KevinFinnerty]

I can see Copp as a captain

 

[MyLoveIsBlue]

Glad its Copp, another Strome interiew is more than I could stand.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Copp is significantly better finisher than Strome.

 

[Machinehead]

Since we're once again bringing up "ANALyTics" unprovoked, you should all know that Panarin has made quite a recovery since being put on a line that doesn't suck.

Don't be deceived. A month ago, this chart was so red it looked like a cardinal got roadkilled by a dump truck.

As I've said in regards to Lafreniere, being put on lines that don't suck literally always works.

 

[duhmetreE]

Panarin makes me gay.

 

[DuneGoon84]

Panarin beast mode my God haven't seen him dominate like this all season. Amazing puck hound. He wants his 100 points

 

[zlev]

absolutely f***ing glorious

 

[PuckLuck3043]

It's pretty funny that I had to defend Panarin earlier this year. One guy you never have to worry about.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

I can see Copp as a captain

Not on this team. Kreider is the captain here, he just wants to share it.

 

[duhmetreE]

Panarin and Shesty going godmode.... just in time.

Now... if Fox gets Foxy...

I mean... who can't we beat?

The team is clicking on basically almost all cylinders right now. Just hope Fox gets going a bit more, he's looked a bit off for like 20 games or so now.

Amazing that the two ahead of him are dmen

 

[Kovalev27]

So we’re going to send you from miserable Winnipeg to NYC to play with your best friend and you get to be on a line with artemi Panarin heading into your UFA summer.

Did Andrew Copp get touched by an angel or what?

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

It's ridiculous that Panarin either knows where to be for the puck or the puck just follows him. It's as magnetic as I've ever seen with any player.

He is playing absolutely transcendent hockey right now. You can watch any player in the world right now and you would be hard pressed to find a player who is at his level of deception, vision and awareness. It's beyond special to witness and we are all very very lucky that he wanted to be a Ranger.

 

[TGWL]

If only we had 3 other lines...

 

[KevinFinnerty]

Panarin is on fire, he’s so strong on the puck and is a puckhound without it. He might be one of the best puck handlers and strongest p4p player for his size the way he holds off multiple defenders to find an open seam

 

[Jauffre]

Trotz between periods:

"Lay the f***ing BODY on the #10 guy"
*3 eyebrow wiggles*
"And how'd you let Marc Staal get a f***ing Hattrick?"

 

[duhmetreE]

It's pretty funny that I had to defend Panarin earlier this year. One guy you never have to worry about.

It's pretty funny I had to defend signing Panarin

 

[Tob]

Someone finally convinced Panarin that playing with actual top 6 talent is better than trying to suck the white part off the watermelon rind playing with Dryden Hunt and Colin Blackwell.

 

[darko]

Copp That!!!

 

[Chaels Arms]

Team is peaking at the right time and all the deadline acquisitions are fitting in. This is how I feel right now.

 

[duhmetreE]

My man sweats like Aroldis Chapman

 

[hackeyman]

Not on this team. Kreider is the captain here, he just wants to share it.

F
Kreider, Trouba , and Zibs. Let them keep their A's . No need of a C but if there was one it would be Trouba for me.
