GDT: Game 8 - New York Rangers @ New York Islanders - 7:30 EST, TNT

[Matt Rentfree]

Who's scratched for GOAT?

No one. Kravtsov is injured again. He's the new Sammy Blais.

 

[Kane One]

We should be so lucky. 21 year old Stepan put up 50pts...

And a hat trick in his first game. Took Laf 9 or so games for a single goal. Or was it a point?

 

[Saitama]

I mean, there won’t be anything to discuss on the main board if we follow such superstitions- if some player or team playing well, gotta get recognized

And if you jump the gun by pumping up said team, then everything they do gets magnified and laughed at by the rivals. Which is happening, a lot right now.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Lafreniere is Derek Stepan with rosier cheeks.

Stepan got a hat trick in his first game

 

[DialUp]

How was that not an automatic whistle

 

[Bob Richards]

Lafreniere is Derek Stepan with rosier cheeks.

I'd be happy if Lafreniere showed the scoring prowess of Derek Stepan at this point lol

 

[Rempe73]

Lindgren easily 1st star for that

 

[Shesterkybomb]

I'll make comment about what i believe is a big problem for this team....
Kreider and Zib are #1 line, #1Pk, #1 pp....there's no need of them killing penalties

 

[ajdj10]

We should be so lucky. 21 year old Stepan put up 50pts...

But Stepan didn't have Quinn as coach, or miss season upon season because of COVID, didn't have shit line mates and always played on the PP.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

Stepan got a hat trick in his first game

And Laf's mom is not nearly as cute.

 

[Cmox]

Lingren has black and blue skin

Krav hurt

 

[Off Sides]

The Rangers are shit at 5v5 and can only score on the power play. And now even that has dried up.

The coach needs to fix this and if he can’t both he and the idiot GM should pay with their jobs.

I don't think coaching can fix it. When Chytil is their best 5on5 forward it's seems more of a player deficiency to me.

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

We are not worthy of you Lindy!!

 

[ViD]

Ok, as fair revenge, feel free to create a thread about Jackets if we ever deserve such a thread

 

[Kane One]

That doesn’t happen often because it should be a stoppage of play.

 

[Synergy27]

Trade Lindgren tomorrow before his body breaks down.

 

[NYR94]

Lindgren takes a beating but he does not back down

 

[Boris Zubov]

WTF are the refs doing there. Blow the whistle when the puck is laying on top of the goal. Idiots.

 

[LokiDog]

I f***ing love Lindy. He shouldn’t ever be a cap casualty because he accounts for literally 65% of the team’s total testosterone.

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

Lindgren is the Wolverine

 

[Saitama]

Ok, as fair revenge, feel free to create a thread about Jackets if we ever deserve such a thread

Nah, I like CBJ decently, no revenge needed!

 

[frozenrubber]

Lindgren drinks lidocaine as Gatorade

 

[Leonardo87]

Good thing the Islanders PP sucks, lol.

 

[The New Russian Five]

Lafreniere is Derek Stepan with rosier cheeks.

Odd comparison considering that Stepan had a stellar career as a ranger and was piling points as a 21 year old rookie. If you had to compare Laf and Stepan at this stage of each of their careers, Stepan was a superior player.
