GDT: Game 9: 10/30 - New York Rangers @ Winnipeg Jets, 7:30 ET, MSG

[Hunter Gathers]

where did you think it was? lol

Winnipeg?

7:30 start??

That's this week on "Winnipeg is not where I thought it was."

I flat out said to myself, "Wow, they are doing this game at 4:30PM in Winnipeg??? What, is it some silly Canadian holiday we don't care about?"

I know some have turned on him already, but I'm pulling for Wheeler. He seems like the perfect, cheap veteran addition you want around some younger guys.

Yes, we need an annual HFNYR Michael Rozsival "Cool-Whip" Whipping boy award (fully sponsored of course), it's really lacking from our HF community

Rule: People who have a first name as a last name are dicks. Looking at you, Kyle Connor.

Let's make it five!

 

[Larrybiv]

Must win, the Jets suck.

Let's stick to hockey. Oh wait, they beat the Giants yesterday, but still sucked in doing so. Thing is Giants suck much much more. Jets>>>>>better days a coming!

Might be to capture east coast tv revenue?

 

[Larrybiv]

Okay, so not one person here has mentioned (giving me kudos) for "envisioning a perfect road trip"
So here we are, with one game to go. Have a definite 4 wins, looking for 5! How's that for a jinx!

We're gonna lose tonight. Bet the house or GF. (Reverse jinx)

I don't want to think about yesterday's embarrassment.

 

[Rongomania]

I think we already got the hardest 8 points in a row to get this season. Pretty f*cking rad. Very jazzed about the New York Rangers.

Expecting a good game from Wheeler. He's been good since the terrible pre season and first couple of games. His old team, this might be the only time I'd be OK with Wheeler being on the ice for the opening faceoff. I'm sure he will have something to prove.

 

[RickChartraw]

I expect them to finish this trip 5-0, nice flight home, take the kids trick or treating tomorrow.

Only 4 games in the next 12 days (and 6 in 18, wtf) after this one.

 

[Machinehead]

This guy didn't know where it was either

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

This road trip is the dumbest road trip ever.

Glad they got it out of the way early though as it would have sucked way more if they were doing this shit in March.

Also expect big time games from Teemu Selanne, Thomas Steen and Tim Cheveldae.

This is so later on in the year the NHL can capitalize on the Rangers playing 6 national games in 7 days.

We're surprisingly light on national games to start the year, though. Still haven't had one so far, and in total we only have three in 2023 (and one of them is an ESPN+ one).

I know it's hard making the schedule but is it so much to ask that the trip heads in one general direction?

It's perfect for later, when the Kid Line is back together and Sean McDonough can say it looks tired and needs a nap.

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Anyone know why this game has 7:30 start?

Here’s a question for the board.
If you’re Laviolette, do you swap Wheeler and Kakko for tonight’s game?

Rangers fourth best team winning faceoffs? #notmyteam

It’s a million years and the temperature in hell just went down to 17 degrees.
