GDT: Game # 81 - New York Rangers vs Buffalo Sabres - 7pm EST, MSG

[Bob Richards]

Pat Kane had to pause his audiobook "10 traits every alpha male exudes" to play this game. Let's cut him some slack.

False. There is no way. Kane comes off as a total "reading is for nerds" guy.

Chris Kreider sometimes reads but he mostly collects books to impress other people with his bookshelf.

Sam Rosen only reads about obscure, historical hockey players like Jamison "Snake Hands" Gordon

Ben Harpur can only read if the words are symbols painted on a cave wall

What does that have to do with the Rangers coming out slow yet again?

Saving it for the playoffs? I dunno.

 

[Kovalev27]

Continue coming out flat once the playoffs start,and get eliminated in round 1.

Almost like this game means a little less than a playoff game though no?

In all seriousness thought we started great. The penalty by Panarin flipped momentum

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

The coming out looking slow/tired/ate 3 tubs of mint chocolate chip is an annoying thing

 

[Kords]

Sabres gonna see that the Isles are getting smoked and come out on a mission =/

The Sabres are fighting for their lives. Meanwhile the Rangers have earned the right to not care about this game.

why not have the whole team try playing skating backwards only? This is the kind of stuff that would make hockey more competitive against the other leagues.

Zibanejad is too much of a passenger with on the Kane-Panarin PP
Wish we would stay with Tarasenko there.

Mika needs a goal, but an assist

 

[Siddi]

That was Mikas 90th point. Now score a goal.

90 points!

For both of them, right?

 

[will1066]

Great board work by Kakko

 

[ecemleafs]

Mika hit 80 for the first time last year. Got 90 for the first time this year. Hes getting 100 next year.

 

[17futurecap]

Mikkola wanting to go deep with the puck on his stick is the funniest and scariest thing.

 

[Crease]

Does Mika count as a homegrown star?

 

[bl02]

Vesey strong on his skates and another great shift 4th line.
