GDT: Islanders @ Rangers 12:30pm Eastern ABC/ESPN+

[mas0764]

This team is built for the regular season. Not the playoffs. Rangers give me early 2000 sharks vibes. Regular season darlings.

The team can’t play at 5v5! What team is a real contender that is so awful at 5v5?

The first and third lines simply don’t score at 5v5. It’s a massive problem. And it’s why their 1C and 3C need to not be on this team next year probably.

Garbage players Wennberg and Roslovic.
Miller still a defensive liability

Wennberg is fine. But addressing 1RW with Roslovic should be a fireable offense

I’ve decided to express my emotions thru Shoresy gifs for the rest of this game. Let’s start:

f***, now I want chicken fingers

 

[MikeSteaks]

Tough to win when you're being outplayed in a game you're trying hard to win.

Wut.

 

[Brutananadilewski]

Panarin - Zibanejad - Rempe line in the 3rd pls

Why are you punishing Rempe?

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Wennberg becoming a punching bag is so predictable…not even in the top 10 of issues a this team

 

[SML2]

Trouba got a lot of blame for that pair but Miller had his head so far up his ass

Miller has literally no hockey sense. If his hockey sense were a person, it would need a drool cup and a bib. He's a f***ing moron and 4 years into this he still does the same dumb shit. Yet game after game they gave about how good he is. Even simple plays are too much and forget about covering the slot. i don't think he knows that's his area when his partner is behind the net.

 

[Svenhart2008]

forget that their playing like ass, their getting out worked, which is probably the number one thing in the playoffs. They’re not getting to the middle of the ice.

Add on top of that the mental aspect of leading all season long to give it away 2 games before the end.

These guys are done. Top six is more of the same in pressure situations, invisible, including Panarin.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

If we are out early in the playoffs. I want Zib Trouba and miller gone.

Good luck with the first -- I doubt he waives as long as his bro is still here.

 

[Kovalev27]

Miller stick held badly there on the goal makes it even worse

 

[Mike in Houston]

Who is going to score? The Panarin has gone cold at the worst possible time.

Coincidentally in playoff style games, specifically for the opponent.

[huerter]

Why does anyone think these games have any baring on the playoffs? Did you not learn from the preseason?

 

[Brutananadilewski]

Kreider has to give us his list this summer!

Maybe Zibs will follow him!

 

[DialUp]

Here are the options: you stick with the players we have until their contract runs out, and win NO Cups in the next 10 years, or you trade them picks/prospects and you still win NO Cups in 10 years. So regardless, you are looking a possibility of a team being good enough in about another decade.

So really it doesn't really matter.

The board will turn on him once he hits 27 or 28.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Playing an old slow team. If Panarin’s line can’t score or draw penalties against this team then we’re in trouble.
There should be yelling and throwing of equipment in that locker room right now.

 

[ncdoc]

This game means shit and does not reflect the playoffs at all. Yeah, it sucks but they aren't playing terrible.

Just came to say we need a helmet throw.

 

[KevinFinnerty]

need to step up physically and move the puck they're grinding us down low and we have 2 legal Pejorative Slurs on defense

 

[Richard Banger]

Doesn’t matter. He has a 15 trade clause. Find one of those teams.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Hopefully find some life in the 3rd

 

[bl02]

Watching Wennberg in Seattle and here is night and day. He would get to the net in Seattle here he's following 93's lead.

Zib has a full NMC.
