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

[Shesterkybomb]

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.

Fox has been fine, he's a high risk high reward dman, you have to live with the bad to get the good. I think people are hyperfocused on him and any little slip up is magnified.

 

[CommaSynapse]

Amazing that the two ahead of him are dmen

Before tonight, third place was a 3-way tie between Leetch, Gretzky, and Messier, each with 72.

Then Leetch again with 70....

 

[Ginger Papa]

Great seeing Copp thriving with you.

Have a great night with no injuries.

Off to watch my Canucks try to claw back into the Playoff race.

Cheers

 

[GAGLine]

Great period. Don't let up.

Bill Pidto working on a consecutive broadcast streak, too.

Firing on all cylinders

Good luck, I'm hoping Van gets in, slim chance as it is.

 

[B33R LEAGUE]

Is it too late to get a guaranteed 1st round pick for Copp now?

Jets fans hope Copp brings you a Cup!

 

[Rangers in 7]

Is Copp the greatest player to ever play for the rangers? I think yes

 

[Doctyl]

If only we had 3 other lines...

This is a bad hockey team

 

[duhmetreE]

Panarin behind only Zubov and Leetch for single season assists on the Rangers.

73 assists. Needs 4 to tie Zubov. 7 to tie Leetch.

Does he break it?

 

[Ratelleitlikeitis]

Did Nicholas Cage have a role in RoboCopp?

 

[Rongomania]

Holyyyyy shiiiiiit new fave player got a hatty? Amazing news

 

[Circus86]

Copp after the first period

 

[duhmetreE]

BRUH

we can be alone in 1st tonight.

 

[rangersfansince08]

How do you not resign Copp after this?

 

[Shesterkybomb]

BRUH

we can be alone in 1st tonight.

I was just looking, there's also a possibility that Wash jumps into Pits spot and pits is in last

Maybe you should put an ice pack between your legs.

I’d really rather play Pittsburgh. They’ve been falling on their face for the past month

 

[smoneil]

If only we had 3 other lines...

The 4th line is playing well relative to their role. Zib and Chytl's lines aren't buzzing, but they aren't stinking up the joint either.

 

[mas0764]

Man that Panarin - Copp - Kakko line is gonna be sweet next year.

 

[Levitate]

I just don't even really know what the islanders were doing...they have some talent on that team, they have some good players, but going all in on over the hill vets so that they have to run an extremely defensive system because they didn't actually compliment the young talent they have...it's just crap what Lou has done with that team, just crap. People talk about "oh they made it to the conference finals" well it was a covid shortened year and over a full season you're not going to be able to keep performing at the level needed, plus their old guys another year older doesn't help

with some smart moves they could be a lot more dangerous than they are

 

[will1066]

Copp first Ranger to score first three goals of a game

 

[TGWL]

Is it too late to get a guaranteed 1st round pick for Copp now?

Jets fans hope Copp brings you a Cup!

If we win the cup you can have 2 first round picks...

They're choking out the offense to play beyond their roster's talent. It worked in the last 2 years but it's catching up. Barzal is shook. Lee and Nelson are as good as they're going to be. Wahlstrom is being scratched. It's a good strategy post Tavares. You'd rather use up your life force to try and win like they did instead of just be middling.
