Post-Game Talk: Lucifer

[PuckLuck3043]

BTW how that hit on Lindgren wasn't called a minor penalty is beyond me when the hit was late and the contact was to the face. I don't think it should have been a major but to call nothing was laughable.

 

[80shockeywasbuns]

Don't look now but since the Carolina game we've scored 4, 5, 4, 3, and 5 goals. Our PP hasn't had more than one goal in any of the games other than the Detroit game. Mika's line is still MIA 5 on 5. Fox is still out, Chytil is still out.

Having a 7D that isn’t mentally handicapped is huge. The difference between Fox and Gus is smaller than the drop off from Jones to Harpur/Hajek. Last year our 3rd pair would have been decimated in this game. Instead they were responsible for both Vesey goals tn

Vally was pretty miffed at the call.

I’ve got to say, if he thinks that shouldn’t be a goal, I’m a little disappointed. The ref making a mistake doesn’t change the fact that the puck squeezed through Igor’s legs and went in with no extra help. I guess that’s goaltender solidarity

 

[80shockeywasbuns]

Right, defensemen have nothing to do with offense ... ?

Are you serious with this comment?

Everyone knows the puck just magically makes its way up the ice to the forwards

Jones was responsible for the winning goal by finding Trocheck up ice. I like his play.

Shitsburgh fans complaining about Trouba hit online

They're next and they're scared, very very scared.

Jones was responsible for the winning goal by finding Trocheck up ice. I like his play.

He was also great on the sustained O zone shift on Veseys first goal. Absolute laser onto Schneiders tape after a nice play from Pitlick (does anyone think he should ever sit over Goodrow??)

 

[Black Tank]

I agree but I see Tom Fitzgerald targeting big rig type D-men within the next year to have their answer for Trouba. If they get Zadorov this rivalry will just continue to reach boiling temps.

Except the games will be less close. For every hit that Zadorov throws, he also completely whiffs on the play ala Brendan Smith x 2 and we get at least multiple scoring chances against when he's on.

 

[Black Tank]

The Islanders used to have it too. Not sure if they got rid of it... or if anyone knows since they don't score goals

Except the piss poor islanders are tied with the devils in the standings. I can't stop laughing at that.

Sunday down under and was hiking in the bush with wifey unfortunately well out of cell range. Got to the top of a peak and suddenly phone pings with a single bar of service. Open NHL app, put radio broadcast on and proceed to listen to last 7 mins. Wifey sat beside me listening and being the true Canuck mumbled at the final horn

”fugging rangers…..”

I was wondering if someone could give me some clarity on NHL rules, as I understand them. Last week a goal was disallowed, as the ref had " intent " to blow the whistle, so no goal. Last night the ref blew the whistle before the goal crossed the line, but since the play was a continuation? the goal counted. Based on this two rulings, what is the deciding factor, the " intent to blow the whistle" or the " continuation of the play" What happens if there was a goal scored on a continuation play, but the ref had intent to blow the whistle before the puck crossed the line? is it a goal or not. ?

Zac best game as a pro

The league REALLY wants to sell the Hughes family. It’s kind of ridiculous. The Lindgren’s are top 2 in the metro.

I wish we had an answer for you, but the league doesn't even know.

 

[GENESISPuck94]

Somehow we’re 10-2-1 with three of our top 9 players underperforming which is something else.

Give Panarin Mika’s spot on the PP for now

Laf and Bread on opposite walls.

Mika can sit on the bench and watch what alpha carnivores look like.

Yup. They love the Hughes boys.

And if your first name is Connor….well, they just gush.

Did everyone enjoy that? Good, I have something to say.

I think we've all watched enough hockey and paid enough emotional tax to this team to be qualified to say somebody sucks. I don't care about that.

I don't even care if you think a guy is soft and I don't even care if you like a guy's hair.

That being said, the personal attacks on a guy who plays for this team are seriously disturbing.

"Zibanejad is soy. Zibanejad is a virgin. He's not a man. No testosterone."

You want personal attacks? Here's one:

Who the f*** are you? You're a high school third liner sitting on a message board. If you're not on Viagra, you will be within ten years and you get winded going to the mailbox.

"HE NEEDZ TO EAT SUM MEAT"

Most of you can't eat meat without burping, almost throwing up, and going "whoa boy..."

If you're reading this, you're probably overweight, bad at sports, have heartburn, and watching the Rangers is your exercise. That's true for me too but I'm willing to admit it.

Jesus Christ. The guy gets made fun of for being a father. Being a father is more important than this silly game.

Hell, saying something a little off-color about an opponent during a game, I can understand. He plays for the Rangers. Maybe leave it to on-ice criticisms.

This isn't a mod warning because making fun of a guy for having hobbies and a f***ing CHILD at home isn't against the rules. It's just what I think of some of you and I want you to know.

"I can't argue their analytics. Their 5-on-5 play is better. Let me whine and mope about people going after our $8.5 million 1C who's playing like horeshit!"

Here's a little advice: you don't get paid for being a mod, but you sound like you larp as a reddit mod.

Drink some cranberry juice. It's a natural diuretic.

 

[The S5]

Debbie's board making every possible excuse for the loss.
They are complaining about Vanacek, who was one of their best players last night.
If Vanacek doesn't have a great game and Igor doesn't gift them a couple, this game is a blow out.

 

[Kovalev27]

Best (worst) was on the power play. He was on the left wall demanding the puck from Miller. He gets the puck and gives it right back to Miller thinking Miller will give it right back like a game of catch. First of all your unit got on with 40 seconds left on the advantage. Second, there was room to make a play.

He’s allergic to the center of the ice. Thinks he’ll drown if he lets go of the wall. I actually hate watching him play. He’s better than he’s shown this season but he’s a weak person mentally lets things snowball on him to the worst degree. We’ll hit that 20 game mark like this. He won’t snap out of it until he gets a lucky goal. It’s pretty pathetic

The people "Going after our $8.5 million 1C who's playing like horeshit!" aren't going after his play on ice. They are looking for anything else extra ciricular that they can to paint this false narritive about him. I see comprehention isn't your strong suit.

Ask us how we feel about his one-timers, or how him and Kreids have a propensity of turning a breakaway into shit.

Or the question who is currently worse: Kak or Zibs.

If him being labelled a carrot eater is bad, wait 'til he continues playing like dog shit or does another disappearing act come playoffs.

 

[MrAlmost]

Good game. The Devils are a good team, but they are very similar to Edmonton. It's the Hughes show for sure. The only thing that is better about the Devils situation is that they have Hughes on a better contract so I expect they will be able to actually put a real team around him.

Igor looked suspect early, but cleaned out the cobwebs as it went. He really hasn't put up insane numbers outside the first season and last years playoffs. Problem is last year's playoffs didn't last very long. Haha. He should get better.

Z has started slow every season of his career, and especially with the Rangers. How many f***ing times do we have to have this conversation? Are you guys brand new?

Kakko is in trouble. I bet he would be a star in Minnesota.

I am not sure what to think of Chytil. There hasn't been any report, or update, and some of you are saying his career is over. I am concerned too, especially if its a concussion, but we should wait for an update.

Trouba and Miller continue to play well. I don't know where some people dig up these f***ing analytics charts from, but the 2 that I know of that have been around a while have Trouba and Miller at the top of the league as a pair and individually.

Bonino needs to go.

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

I know its not a long term solution but pre TDL Jimmy Vesey should get a shot at playing RW with Mika and Kreider
