GDT: Game 79: New York Rangers @ New York Islanders, 7pm ET, MSG2

[FoxysExpensiveNYDigs]

Really want 3 more Laf goals over the next 4 games.

Actually maybe Islanders playing the Canes will help the Rangers as the Islanders are a physical team. Maybe wearing the canes down for round 2 if they face the Rangers

This is why I mentioned that I didn't mind if the Isles made the PO's. Indeed they are pretenders......BUT, they could pose a physical threat on whomever they play. Does the majority here HATE the Isles "that much" and prefer Pitt or Wash.? I don't and us ending Pitt's season 2 yrs ago, is too soon, and then there's Sssid, Geno, Karlsson and Letang to deal with and HAVE TO watch.

Really want 3 more Laf goals over the next 4 games.

Surely, and damn that Panarin missed that empty netter, if he ends up with 49, he could point to that miss.

Panarin 9 pts in 4 to pass Jagr?

Oh man glorious memories. I was a junior in high school going ape shit at my buddies house. Stock was such a maniac. Maybe Cloutier's finest moment.

30 30 would be great milestones. Hopefully he realizes the fruits of his labor and continues again this offseason

Panarin 9 pts in 4 to pass Jagr?

He can get over half of that tonight

 

[DialUp]

Expect big time games from Rob DiMaio, Eric Fichaud and Bryan McCabe and Derek King and Brent Severyn

Benoit.

Benoit Hogue.

He does it all.

Why not all of it?

3 goals and an assist would be sweet. 30-30-60.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

54 season wins would be the most in Rangers history, right?

Yeh

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Panarin 9 pts in 4 to pass Jagr?

Certainly possible.

Hell likely need another big 4 or 5 point night in there

Needs to average over 2

Its pretty amazing how ugly they looked for two months straight and will still likely put up the greatest regular season in franchise history.

Is the Metro really that bad? lol.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Are the Rangers' unimpressive metrics a bad omen for the playoffs?

The Blueshirts are atop the NHL standings, in spite of being average (or worse) in a number of statistics. Are they a legit Stanley Cup contender?

www.espn.com

"They'll match up poorly against a team like Carolina, who will be able to control 5-on-5 play against them almost entirely," McCurdy said. "[The Canes] might be able to dictate a style of play that will keep the games at 5-on-5 most of the time."

OK, no.

Typical Wyshinski the Bitchstinky

Never cared for Greg.

You can't scratch both Trent Hunter and Dave Scatchard, but can you?

Re the "greatest regular season in franchise history" - in fairness's sake, it's easier to get wins now. Over most of the team's history there were ties, and over much of it there was no overtime and also fewer games altogether.

 

[Machinehead]

Is the Metro really that bad? lol.

Yeah.

But also, that dip we had followed literally the best start in franchise history.

 

[mandiblesofdoom]

The Metro is not great ... us, the hurricanes, and then a bunch of teams trying to lose their way into the playoffs. And the Blue Jackets (boom).

I might become a rabid Panny fan if he does it!!!

And there are a lot more mediocre to bad teams than ever before.

 

[McRanger92]

Rangers can eliminate the isles this week. Good practice.

 

[80shockeywasbuns]

Please beat the islanders

These are the games you are supposed to play Rempe. Guaranteed both Trouba and Goodrow get into fights they shouldn't be.

NYR HFBoards: we need Trouba and Goodrow in the lineup to do grit stuff

Also NYR HFBoards: we need even more trouba and goodrows so trouba and Goodrow don’t have to do the grit stuff

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

There’s no rhyme or reason for Laviolettes lineups decisions.

This is the matchup you want to play Rempe in , not against the f***in Habs minus Xhejaj .

Also Jones deserves a permanent spot in the lineup

NYR HFBoards: we need Trouba and Goodrow in the lineup to do grit stuff

Also NYR HFBoards: we need even more trouba and goodrows so trouba and Goodrow don’t have to do the grit stuff

NYRHFb has never said we need Trouba and Goodrow in the lineup
