His best game so far as a Ranger...should be first star .He did it all .Schneider will only get better, he has gained tons of experience. He is a year younger than Zac Jones, but a lot of fans dont remember that because he's not shiny and new
Agreed. We need more guys like that and less divas and marshmallows on the team.I know Goodrow hasn’t produced much of anything for this team and is completely overpaid but there aren’t many players who willingly take face first dives to block shots

Got to give Mathews credit. That guy is amazing.
The only time they mucked things up is when they threw hits. I've never seen them get in the way this much.It was nice, the refs letting two good teams play and not mucking things up.
I believe that was Davey Jones, however I believe MartinDid Martin Jones manage the Monkees? Or was he a band member?
What about Edward Jones?I believe that was Davey Jones, however I believe Martin
Jones is an accountancy firm in a former town I lived in.
The amount of times those drop passes by the blue line nearly went the other way had me holding my my breath. I felt we played a more playoff style against them tonight, which for the last several years, they don't seem to enjoy.“They’re a good team. You can tell, when they come in the zone they are making plays…cross ice plays, drop passes that other teams don’t make. That makes it challenging.” - Morgan Reilly
Take your old meta and trash it.
I like that. That is a really interesting comparison. I think Ovi was stronger physically but Mathews is a center and maybe a little more well rounded. They have a lot of similar traits.Ovechkin for the TikTok generation
Matthews’ first goal was nuts, puck is on his stick behind him when he moves to release the puck, practically impossible to roof with oomf unless it’s a wobbly puck (like Mika’s late game 7 tying goal against the Pens in the playoffs 2 years ago). I watched the Leafs highlights (wayyyy more unbiased insight into the goals and plays than Joe) and saw that Lindgren actually got his stick in and got a piece of the puck/shot and that’s what allowed the puck to roof. Now I feel less bad about our 3 leaf deflections into their own net lol
Also realized thanks to the Leafs broadcast that Lindgren was late to react to the passer in the corner on the Matthews second goal, Mika was tying up the guy in front and Lindgren was supposed to go into the corner to tie up the passer but he reacted late and then got caught in no man’s land, unable to block the pass and also unable to take Matthews due to vacating the slot (CK is usually pretty good in the d zone and should have been more aware).

He gave up hockey to be a Stock Brokerage decades ago.What about Edward Jones?
Fox has been pretty average, honestly. He's still not 100%.Tired: Lindgren is the defensive conscience of Fox
Wired: Fox has been carrying around Lindgren's corpse all season.
I'm hoping it's not a system incompatibility issue. He's shown flashes of his old self thoughFox has been pretty average, honestly. He's still not 100%.
Don't know if it's part of our defensive system or if Lindgren was freelancing but on that play, he followed his guy who had the puck all the way to our right wing blue line. The guy then dumped the puck into the opposite corner. So Lindgren skated all the way to that corner because nobody else picked that guy up in the corner. I'm absolutely sure someone else needs to get that guy, probably Krieder. Because if you watch, Lindgren glances at Krieder, sees that he is just standing there and then heads to the corner. That's about 5 seconds where Krieder is frozen. Things would have worked so much better for us if Krieder gets to the corner because Lindgren was exactly where Matthews scored when he decided he better go to the corner.Matthews’ first goal was nuts, puck is on his stick behind him when he moves to release the puck, practically impossible to roof with oomf unless it’s a wobbly puck (like Mika’s late game 7 tying goal against the Pens in the playoffs 2 years ago).

Saying he hasn't produced anything is incredibly unfair. Is he overpaid? Absolutely. But fans need to rally around a guy like that. Right, he's probably one of three guys on the team with the Cup on the line that would offer their face to keep a puck from getting through to Igor. He's helped make that line with Vesey and Pitlick a force each night. I love the guy. Don't hate him because he's being paid good money. Let's hope we win a Cup with him. Such a likable player and, most of all, a teammate.I know Goodrow hasn’t produced much of anything for this team and is completely overpaid but there aren’t many players who willingly take face first dives to block slappers
