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

[Daves a mess]

Only question now is who scores the empty netter for that f**k of a shithead team?

 

[bl02]

We can sit here and ask why Halak is playing or Reaves, but is it too much to ask the top 6 to score a damn goal..its been a few games..

if we think the game would be 2-0 us if Shesty was in we are all fooling ourselves.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Labatt any good? Never had it

Must be if it’s Canada’s Beer

 

[Guyute]

This team refuses to try to score greasy goals. They won’t be legit cup contenders until they learn greasy chances open up the seams for the pretty East-west goals they only want to score.

ding ding ding

people keep complaining about the order of the deck chairs on the Titanic like that's the problem.

 

[LokiDog]

One dimensional

So when teams look at tape they see EXACTLY what we're going to do

There's no plan to adjust.

At 5v5 or the PP

It's game 8 and stale already

I mean it’s essentially this. The Rangers do the same thing every PP, every game, and it works or doesn’t. You watch other PP’s - not sure where they rank compared to ours - but you watch Minnesota or Colorado and the players have the chemistry, awareness and ambition to constantly be riffing and improving. Kaprizov and Zuccarello. MacKinnon, Rantanen, Landeskog, Nichushkin, Makar. They all rotate, there isn’t an obvious plan as much as there is fluid puck movement and pulling opponents out of position to create something.

 

[Psycho for Perreault]

More than half this fan base likes the Giants. Watching Daboll work and then watching this is embarrassing. I was never a GG guy, but Daboll has made me dislike GG more.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Easiest shitout of Sorokins career

Dude gets 25 g of fiber a day. MINIMUM.

 

[will1066]

We're gonna see new line combos. Just that it's B2B games so no chance to practice. But these lines are not staying together

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Labatt any good? Never had it

Must be if it’s Canada’s Beer

Its the worst.

Shutout to 23 year old Goalie for his first NHL win ? Check.
Lose to BU Baloon Boy Quinn and a team that didnt have a win this season ? Check.
Lose to Georgsiev ? Check.
Shutout to Sorokin and the Piles ? Check.

Hmmmm, lets see what else we have on the itinerary !

Lose to Lindy's Ref Smurts ? TBD
Lose to Torts' Orange Goons ? TBD

Feel free to add to the Itinerary. Lets all get in on the action meow.

 

[Bob Richards]

Makes him look like even more of a bust, at least if he were clean shaven he’d still look like he was youthful and full of potential.

Alexis Lafreniere is like a generated create-a-player name of a huge bust from any NHL draft from 1995-2002

 

[DialUp]

If I was playing in the NHL, I wouldn't be posting here. But what I would be doing is licking my chops when I see NYR on the schedule because they beat themselves. You just have to sort of exist and you can win. Things need to change, I hope it's a slump but it doesn't feel like it.

Early last season Kreider talked about how they don't have a set plan on the PP1 and were improvising. Now they have ONE set plan (Zib blaster) and everyone knows it.

 

[Cmox]

Only question now is who scores the empty netter for that f**k of a shithead team?

Their goalie

 

[bl02]

Trocheck is the only one who gives a shit.

Baby, wait 'til we get smoked by the University of Arizona!

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

To be honest, every single team has hot and cold streaks throughout the year. Trust me when I say getting hot early in the season is not a great thing. Of course stringing together losses stings, but it's a lonnng season. I like the way they are playing and I am 100% Messier guaranteeing you, this will turn and the Rangers will get hot and Snowblind will be the only one left complaining.

Matt Martin

 

[RickChartraw]

Kreider weak on the puck. what is wrong wrong with the guy?

 

[NoQuitInNewMexico]

Tbh I like Trocheck just getting really mad and hitting everything

 

[Kane One]

Alexis Lafreniere is like a generated create-a-player name of a huge bust from any NHL draft from 1995-2002

Or when you play EA NHL into the 2030 season.

 

[Raspewtin]

holy f*** Kreider is such a bum

I've never been so angry with a good player before

 

[FultonReed]

just 0 effort from Kreider there. none.
