[Machinehead]

Hockey, I guess.

The Islanders sure worked hard, Sam.

 

[Chytilmania]

I don’t want to hear any complaints. That was 100% better than watching a NY Jets game.

8-2-1, snitches

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I have absolutely no enthusiasm anymore after wins because this is a bad hockey team relying on an unsustainable all time great performance by their goalie. Trash team and I don't care that they won. I'd rather have lost the last three but gotten bad luck. Instead we're seeing the worst defense we've seen since the dark ages. There is nothing positive to take out of these performances. They're every bit as bad as the Giants and Jets minus one player.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Carrick is better than I thought he was.

Smith is a really good middle six player.

Chytil and Kakko were great.

 

[duhmetreE]

Only watched the 1st.

We’re just sloppy with the fine details

 

[DanielBrassard]

Another game that they were outplayed significantly, but this time they were playing a team with no talent and who were missing some of their best players. Exciting stuff.

 

[Siddi]

A win against the fishsticks is always gravy in my book.

 

[80shockeywasbuns]

i just find it amazing how they will literally reward Mika and Lindgren for playing badly by upgrading their linemates, meanwhile when Jones plays well he's scratched entirely

 

[Machinehead]

I don't f***ing remember the new lines so I did the poll the old way

 

[DutchNYR]

Are we human or are we Igor?

 

[will1066]

Hank enjoyed it

HFNYR watching a 5-2 win over a rival:

Seriously, though, we are still very much Igor + everybody else.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

I couldn't go outside due to the marathon, so... watching this was okay, I guess.

Lo and behold, Jones and Schneider were their best defenseman in terms of xGF%. Meanwhile the other two pairings got f***ed destroyed.

 

[Machinehead]

Zibanejad was legit good in that game. Only Schneider and Jones had a better xGF%.

Trouba, Fox, Miller, and Trouba 4 of the bottom 7. Love those pairs that literally always work so well.

This is watching the Rangers do anything

I'm told that anyone can play with Fox and Miller sucks.

 

[LOFIN]

Not great, not terrible. I think the O-lines were better tonight.

D-pairs are horror. HORROR.

 

[DanielBrassard]

I'm told that anyone can play with Fox and Miller sucks.

Right lol. Well maybe Laviolette will realize that’s not the case and we will be spared more Lindgren-Fox, Miller-Trouba.

 

[Machinehead]

I'm told that anyone can play with Fox and Miller sucks.

I think almost anyone could. Just not a guy with high school offensive talent.

 

[will1066]

I'm told that anyone can play with Fox and Miller sucks.

I think we have to start facing that Fox isn't dominant anymore

I find it amazing that we were the best team in the league the whole time Lindgren was out.

I feel like I'm on Punk'd.
