GDT: Game 78: New York Rangers vs Montreal Canadiens, 7pm ET, MSG2

If he plays in the playoffs, you basically are just hoping for Ros to go on a 18% shooting heater, and send him on his way.

It does seem more likely he’s healthy scratched more often than not moving forward though.

Lets Get Rowdy at the Garden!! Rempeeeeeee!!

I know people are always on the "Kreider sucks" thing and you can't get them off of that, but Kreider's analytics have legitimately taken a huge hit since around the trade deadline.

I said it as soon as the trade went down. Roslovic is a guy that looks like he's doing stuff but his team gets worse at everything when he's out there.

The opposite of Kreider.

 

[Chytilmania]

Rempe on line one screening the goalie with Kreider, Mika just tries to feed Fox and Jones with the big guys in front. We will get goals!

Got tickets lgr

Have fun

Kreider - Zibanejad - Rempe
Nothing else seems to have worked, f*** it

 

[PuckLuck3043]

So again what are the lines for tonight?

Kreider-Mika-Vesey
Panarin-Trocheck-Laf
Cuylle-Wennberg-Kakko
Rempe-Brod-Goodrow

Vomit worthy line 1, the rest are ok

So he's played 15 games on L2 and 1 game as a healthy scratch and suddenly the likely scenario is that he's a healthy scratch going forward? And the guy that replaces him in the lineup is a tough guy who averages 5 minutes a game? I don't think so.

 

[Machinehead]

While I would love for Roslovic to be scratched for awhile, I don't see it. This is just part of the rotation that Laviolette has been doing.

Imo Laviolette really just doesn't wanna play Rempe but it's a bad look to dumpster a guy who's been such a good soldier with the extracurricular stuff.

He's just gonna scratch Rempe in the playoffs and justify it with "this is the playoffs."

 

[Mike in Houston]

Doesn't look like a single one of youse has mentioned that tonight is Steven McDonald night.

Tough call on who is going to get it this season.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Trouba on the PP is painful enough when Jones isn't sitting on the bench. Blasting ever puck into shin pads and glass is going to be even harder to watch tonight.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Is jones in? I like that he’s getting rotated in but not at the expense of Gustafsson.

 

[Mike in Houston]

Is jones in? I like that he’s getting rotated in but not at the expense of Gustafsson.

Yes.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Yes.

Thanks.

I think it will be Trocheck, but it would be nice for Panarin to get recognition for how he transformed his game this season too. He clearly took the playoffs personally last year, and decided he was going to impact games in a different way this season.

 

[ArPanet]

Hope Rempe doesn’t fight WiFi that guy is a beast.

 

[noncents]

Hope Rempe doesn’t fight WiFi that guy is a beast.

is pizzeta playing? he got absolutely dumpstered by reavo last night

 

[SA16]

Hope Rempe doesn’t fight WiFi that guy is a beast.

Your hopes will be granted considering he is injured.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Vomit worthy line 1, the rest are ok

Line 1 is always vomit worthy with Mika and Kreider.

 

[zlev]

my pick for the award would probably be trocheck but I think it'll be quick

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Hope Rempe doesn’t fight WiFi that guy is a beast.

I think Xejaxj is out. So Rempe is free to bully little Cole Caufield all game

 

[RangerBoy]

The handling of Kakko is perplexing. Laviolette dropped Kakko from the Zibanejad after ten games. Kakko missed 21 games with the lower body injury. Wheeler couldn't skate anymore. Wheeler gets hurt. The Rangers refuse to just put Kakko on the Zibanejad line. Leave him there. Roslovic stinks. The Rangers are putting Vesey on that line. Just trade the guy this summer. Kakko wants more playing time and the Rangers are reluctant to give him more playing time.

 

[KevinFinnerty]

yeah I wouldn't be surprised to see Kakko get dealt at the draft honestly. Laf has stepped up Kakko is just not an intense hockey player. very lackadaisical. 2nd overall pick should be better than a Jere Lehtinen redux.
