Post-Game Talk: L’s @ RANGER

[bl02]

It just sucks that we went out and spent 3 years term and money for Nemeth and now we have to go out looking for a 6th vet dman? I hope Nemeth can get his stuff together. Would rather not have to give up young assets for a bottom pairing dman.

 

[Whoot Whoot]

is it friday yet?

 

[EdJovanovski]

Wtf didn’t even realize this is Reavo’s Birthday-Eve!

 

[Tob]

That fierce loyalty Gallant has, it'll take Drury to do something about Nemeth.

[nyr2k2]

It's because I peaced out and watched Netflix at 2-0, guys. They always do good shit when I quit early.

(I actually checked in every 10 minutes and even saw the GTG and GWG, but still, I'm taking credit.)

Something special might just be happening.

Something special might just be happening.

Still a long way to go. Haven't hit the halfway point yet.

 

[Machinehead]

A big jump from 10.

We're not talking about Jovanovski who actually is 10

 

[MysticLeviathan]

Huge test on Friday. Gonna miss almost all of the game though :/

 

[jay from jersey]

Bingo

I remember arguing with people this summer who were trying to just dump him in trades because they thought Nils was going to be the more unique player, and nothing against Nils but Schneider literally does everything that you want from an NHL defenseman. The way he's coming in and the way he's playing is just like McDonough when he stepped in here. He didn't need to be babied or sheltered he was just sent out there to play and he ran with it. Schneider's not going anywhere.

I was right there with ya bud.
He’s the type of D every team is going to want.
Our right side should be cover on d for a long ways from a top 4 stand point. Kid is rock solid.
Hopefully he’ll be able to fully take over for trouba in a year and a half-2 years time

Last one and the Interview everyone has been waiting for Ryan Reaves.


goodnight all.

 

[KatChe]

Happy. It was the best game. Shesty is difference. 0,92 vs 0,80 saves

 

[egelband]

I didn't get to watch most of this, did this win count or was it like all the other ones that didn't count?

Rangers didn’t win. Toronto lost.

Such a typical response on this forum. I've been watching the Rangers my entire life. I'm always anticipating that 10 game losing streak, the death knell injury, whatever. But I can count on one hand the amount times I've felt this way about a team.

 

[TriFF51]

We put up a 6 spot? Sweet, Laf and Kakko surely contributed!

*checks stats*

Oh.


Great win though lol

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I saw that we're 3rd worst in xGF% 5 on 5, surprised it's that bad, I figured we were bottom 10 though. Just shows you how good Igor is.

My résponse wasn't meant to be a killjoy & I'm not a negative poster, so don't lump me in with that group.

I agree something special might be building here, but there's a lot of hockey left to play is all I meant.. I've been watching this team 40+ years & I've learned to never look too far ahead. One bad injury can derail a season, etc. I'm just enjoying these wins as they come.

Outside of that dope ass touch pass to Strome in the neutral zone, Kakko was horrific again tonight. One rush in the first period where I watched his eyes the entire time he was carrying the puck through the neutral zone. Not ONCE did he look forward at the defenseman who was giving him time and space. Literally not once. His eyes were going back and forth between Panarin and Strome as they were going up the ice in a flying f***ing V and not for one minute was either of them a viable passing option.

So you guessed it.. instead of using his frame and puck skills to drive the defenseman, he yet again tries to defer to one of those other guys who are covered like white on rice and it results in a turnover. It's maddening to watch how little confidence this kid has right now and I'm legitimately starting to get worried. I have no idea how this team still wins games with two of their wingers arguably not playing at an NHL level 50% of the time. It's truly mind boggling

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, imagine if they were actually really good players. This team is at the top of the league after tanking and with absolutely nothing to show for the four consecutive top ten picks they had. This team would never lose a game if Kakko and Laf were the game breaking talents they were billed to be.

Jack Campbell and Leaf’s Coach Sheldon Keefe Post Game Interviews.

Yowzers. Their coach is pretty harsh on their team.

 

[Kodiak]

After the first period, I thought to myself, “They’ve almost figured out how to defend against Fox. You assume he is going to hold on to the puck until you actually see him move it.” Then Fox finishes the game with 2G 1A and I realize there is no way to truly defend against Fox.

 

[Brief Candle]

Last one and the Interview everyone has been waiting for Ryan Reaves.



goodnight all.

I've said it a bunch. He's been one of my favorites for a long time. f***ing thrilled to have this guy on our team. It was awesome seeing Panarin trying to find him for the hatty.

 

[Synergy27]

Go read the Leafs board if you somehow feel bad about this win.

 

[ohbaby]

I don't know if this was the best game the Rangers have played all season, but it was certainly the most entertaining, the most thrilling, the most rip-roaring excitement I have seen all year. My neighbors complained, I was screaming so loud. Down 2-0 and 3-1,... you just knew this game was far from over. This game was just so much fun. The only way it could have been better, is if Sam and Joe lost their voices calling it.

Fun Fact: Ryan Reaves with his multi goal game, is only 186 shy of breaking Wayne Gretzky's all-time record.

Oh baby what a game! Now that's what I call entertainment.
