There's gonna be some fun for Sam when both Lindqvist and Hank are in the lineup.

 

[will1066]

Was thinking the exact same thing.

How does a brand new coaching staff instill anything in one day of practice?!?!

It is what it is. Expect zero sympathy from anyone in the league.

I really want Linqvist, Lindgren, Lundkvist, and Lundqvist to all play a game together at some point.

It's crazy how the NHL runs training camp. 20 days. First day is off ice testing. Second day is on ice testing. Skate for one or two days and play a pre-season game. Play 6 pre-season games in 10-11 days. Off for 6-7 days. Season begins.

First off......wooohoooo and here's to a very entertaining and "learning" type year.
Secondly.....losing a bunch of well played, competitive 3-2 losses is NOT going to be a bad thing. Not wishing to lose, but.....
Lastly......In response to the quote.....I've always felt that the "regular season" comes too quickly. As in....is 6 games enough?
The season normally begins with players still not accustomed to 60 minute game play, their teammates/linemates and just basically a little rusty and "off".Same goes for opponents though.

 

[Larrybiv]

tbh, I think this will be the most fun season to watch in years. as good as we were, most regular season games became somewhat meaningless. plus AV’s style of play was never all that exciting. wins and losses aside, I’m looking forward to seeing a younger, looser, more dynamic team this year.

My sentiments exactly. Every year it is basically 1 new addition, maybe 2. This year......could it be 3 or 4? Looking forward to this, wins and losses be damned.

 

[yrrebbor]

Excited about hockey starting, but not excited about the season.

 

[GregNYR89]

Let’s go rangers!!! It has been a long summer.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Excited about hockey starting, but not excited about the season.

Can't blame you. The best case scenario for this team is a top five pick.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Excited about hockey starting, but not excited about the season.

Im excited for both tbh. Hockey season is still hockey season.

What I'm not looking forward to is what this place is going to turn into.

 

[will1066]

It's never too early to talk about armored fighting vehicles.

 

[NASTY]

Not expecting much this season in terms of winning but I'm really excited to see how these young guys can step in and how they develop under Quinn.

 

[Blue Blooded]

It's never too early to talk about armored fighting vehicles.

We should send Nils Lundkvist into military service to secure a regiment of Strv 122's, the best main battle tank of all time (Discovery, 2010).

I'm guessing that you don't pay for preseason hockey tickets... Those 3 home games are like lighting money on fire.

 

[Machinehead]

Dear God

 

[ponytrekker]

Hockey is hockey, different systems are nuanced and if simplified, easier to pick up.

One thing Quinn said is if opposing players are in your way you don't go around them, you go through them. That move was neutered out of Kreider by AV but we'll see.

 

[Irishguy42]

I am very excited to overreact to a preseason game tonight.

Someone on Twitter saw that Hank wasn't playing tonight and immediately reacted with "they better not have traded him"

Bruh.

 

[ponytrekker]

we will destroy them, Devils will be terrible this season. their roster looks pretty terrible:

New Jersey Devils - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps

Except for this one guy who wears number 9.

 

[Ori]

It wasn't Quinn who said that it was McQuaid

However it`s Quinn`s first NHL pre-season game so he is excited to get this boat floating above the flooding before the hurricane Florence hit New York as a normal rain clouds.

And some quick stats about our new coach:

1984–85	Boston University	NCAA	30	3	11	14	26	–	–	–	–	–
1985–86	Boston University	NCAA	37	2	20	22	58	–	–	–	–	–
1986–87	Boston University	NCAA	27	1	11	12	34	–	–	–	–	–
1991–92	Binghamton Rangers	AHL	19	0	0	0	6	2	0	0	0	0

Huh? Those are like the only games I can afford to go to without feeling like I'm being careless haha.

 

[Ori]

I need to buy some beerss before it close 20.00 local time - see you all later tonight and hopefully the game is on MSG Networks so excited for this game!

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Excited to see what we got going tonight. I’ll be switching between this and the football game

 

[will1066]

I'm excited to see if Bryce Salvador gets better with his broadcasting.

Also, Devils no longer have Deb Placey. She took a job with the NHL.

Need some T-34s for all the Russians next year tho

It took a while but I guess her self respect finally kicked in.
