Pre-Game Talk: NYR vs SJS on 10/23/17 @ 7pm ET

[Mac n Gs]

I still don’t understand what the plan is with DeAngelo. If he’s good enough to play, either trade Holden or send down Kampfer? Or if he’s not, send him to Hartford so he gets to play...

I think we’re waiting to see how we look over the next few games, along with how kids are doing in Hartford, before pulling the trigger on a move. The LD market is bottlenecked right now because of Vegas

One does not simply trade Holden...

 

[Rangers in 7]

It`s very hard to predict result in this game. We struggle with inconsistency from one period to next while we look like a much different team sometimes in both energy and quality of performance. And I don`t know why we seldom play 60 min. games with AV - too much energy usage in the first 20 min. or too little hard to balance I guess the whole game.

i dont think any team really plays a 60 minute game, the rangers often only play 20 though

 

[JD361992]

Very interested to see Joakim Ryan on the Sharks. A local Jersey guy from Rumson who played for CBA (Christian Brothers Academy). Very weird to see guys I know from high school making it but also happy for NJ hockey. LGR

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Hopefully DeAngelo gets 5v5 time tonight, but knowing AV since we won the lineup will be exactly the same

 

[CasusBelli]

One puts him on the second pairing to ensure maximum self-damage. That way, managers on mediocre teams don't trade for him, get fired and claim severance. It's quite brilliant if you think about it.

 

[Crease]

OK, we won a game yesterday. If we win today, it's called "two in a row". And if we win again tomorrow, it's called a "winning streak"... It has happened before!

Lots of talent coming out of Jersey lately. Off the top of my head...Johnny Hockey, Anthony DeAngelo, TVR, JVR, and Bobby Ryan. Those are the recent ones I can think of, anyway. Good to see.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

They’re going 11F 7D again tonight

DeAngelo will play but it won’t be any 5v5 time. Cause you know god forbid we take away any time from developing Nick Holden

DeAngelo is too young and inexperienced. Need those vets to chip the puck off the boards for bad giveaways!

We...have...no...marbles

Gorton needs to be firm with AV. Tell him he needs to play over Holden.

If AV refuses, sack him. He already is on thin ice.

The 60-minute game is a myth.

 

[Irishguy42]

AV says that 11F 7D is not ideal.

No shit, Sherlock.

I don't think there's a market.

I've been reading Tampa's forum following G's progress, and they also are convinced they are going to trade Sustr once the market calms down.

I think every fan base has this irrational idea that somehow another team is going to trade for their problems.

Holden should not play, unless there's an injury. I'd say go with 7D, but I don't want him taking any PT from DeAngelo. What I think I'd do is dress 12F, 6D, but only play 11F, and if for some reason we need another forward during the course of a game, Carey can go into the lineup. Thats often what they do in other leagues, they have a young guy in the lineup, maybe they play 2-3 minutes per game, maybe they don't see the ice.

No ****, Sherlock.

Guy is such an idiot

Of course it isn’t, and yet you still insist on going with it, you moron

There is always a market for dmen as the season progresses. Young players cool off, injuries happen, etc.

I’ve said multiple times that the 6 dmen that should be in the lineup are McD, Shatty, Staal, Skjei, Smith, and ADA. We’ve even been agreeing on the forward lines lately

One of my favorite movies of all time.

Cerrano = Nash
Willie M H = Grabner
Dorn = Staal
Taylor = Lundqvist
Wild Thing Vaughn = Kreider

It's called Wishful Thinking.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Why do we need to give 18 players ice time? For a team thats trying to win games, it seems a dumb strategy.

 

[Igor Shestyorkin]

Because AV is loving and caring. Sharing ice time is caring.

 

[Siddi]

Feel like driving.

You are only trolling yourself at this point. Remember last time you felt like driving to a game

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

This SJ team is quite beatable. This Rangers team can win if they play how they did in the last 1st period we saw. They can't stop moving their legs and stop pressing. We see that once they do they can't get out of it. They need to keep it going.

 

[LaffyTaffy]

Time to make this a GDT no?

 

[nevesis]

I'm driving in to see this one. What's a good time to head into NYC to make it on time? Live 30 min. N/W of NYC, and usually take the GW.

Depends on how bad the GW traffic is tonight during rush hour. Doors to MSG open at 6pm, warmups at 6:30 sharp, so i'd leave at 4pm!
