GDT: New York Rangers vs Washington Capitals , 1pm ET

[Machinehead]

He was that guy since he got here. He changed sometime after Covid... model his game more like bad-Panarin. He needs to turn the dial back a bit to his old self.

This is who he is. This is who he was in Ottawa. He had like a season and half of playing engaged hockey here. Go with the larger sample.

 

[Kovalev27]

I know he's probably not ready to be a pro yet, but you can't tell me this psycho wouldn't be better out there than 3 or 4 other forwards in the bottom 6 right now... Especially in a b2b with this dirty Washington team.

I love him and he’s looked good in every prospect camp and preseason chance he’s gotten. I think he could make it one day

 

[DialUp]

Listen to Hank - use the boards, play boring. We are not good enough to play beautiful hockey. Except against AHL teams like Chi

Put Cuylle and Kakko with him and let them grind it out. Put Kreider on another line.

Would rather him than most of our bottom 6

 

[Kovalev27]

Kakko the only nerd that’ll set up in the 1 3 1. They prob tease him about it.

 

[Machinehead]

This is what I wanna do.

That and stop playing Trouba 22 minutes a game with our top forwards.

I have simple requests.

I dont see it that way.

 

[Boris Zubov]

So....I'm standing up between the periods and a thick Brooklyn accent from 2 rows behind me yells "Hey Messier (wearing my 11 jersey) ... you wanna sit down?"

Going anywhere in public always brings out the idiots...NYC happens to have about 9 million of them. Apologies for our tactless neighbors.

 

[RangerLifer]

What really makes it annoying is that he's a big guy and could flatten people if he wanted to. He just doesn't.

It gets the team in trouble because p***yfooting around with the puck leads to turnovers in our zone. It happens way too often for him not to try something different.

Even that is debatable.

 

[Machinehead]

I don't like these people. They always shout at me.

 

[Machinehead]

I dont see it that way.

That's ok, you can be wrong. We still love you.

Ottawa didn't trade 2019, 2020 Mika Zibanejad. f***ing obviously. They traded this.

He's been this 90% of his career.

Vietnam flashbacks to Robert saleh’s “be boring”

 

[Machinehead]

There's our *chortles in disgust* top pair to start a big period.

 

[will1066]

Zibanejad's trajectory is the same as Chuck Norris on Walker. Norris avoided contact like after the seventh season and let the younger cops fight the fights.

Outside of the old Devils teams and those types of teams, hockey is usually beautiful.

 

[Machinehead]

We already had a few powerplays so tackling will be allowed like it was yesterday

 

[TGWL]

You think Kreider knows he can hold the stick with both hands? Not a penalty.

 

[DialUp]

Kreider and Mika getting bodied out there and Kakko is the one to break up the play. Really did miss the guy. He will get zero points from here on out, but the only thing I care about is the puck getting out of the zone.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

ouch

 

[LokiDog]

This sums it up completely...

 

[DialUp]

hockey is usually beautiful.

Remember our older ad campaign "hockey is different here"

Well....

 

[Bob Richards]

Lafreniere really took a second shot because he had the audacity to react to getting hit in the f***ing face lmfao

 

[RangerLifer]

Kojack arguing that call.

 

[will1066]

Carberry arguing that it's allowed on Rangers players around the league
