He meant Boo Nieves and Marc Staal

50% is a pass

How does Nieves = VN? Wouldn't it be CN or BN?

 

[member 116805]

Well this was fascinating.

I'm gonna go do something more fun. Like stare at dirt. Or drown.

Nice try, we all know you won't.
Pain is pleasure lol

 

[Mac n Gs]

Garbage defense by Buch, Staal, and Deangelo

50% is a pass

I'm assuming the VN was meant to be BN. B and V are adjacent on the keyboard

 

[LeetchisGod]

The Rangers have looked like garbage offensively for most of the preseason. Hopefully this isn't a harbinger of what's to come.

 

[NYR Viper]

Vinny Lettieri reminds me of Mark Letestu a bit. Kind of a utility knife player with a good shot.

 

[Fugazy]

Offensive zone attack hasn't looked good at all tonight.

BM

 

[Tob]

A $1,000,000,000 organization is sodomizing itself in order to protect the pride of an AHL
calibre defensemen called Marc Staal.

I wish someone would stand up and stop this.

 

[Kovalev27]

That’s a horrible rebound by hank let’s just call it like it is.

Tony D looks great in all 3 zones. Much better Defensively than advertised.

Andersson’s best play was a backcheck. Otherwise he’s done nothing. He just looks like a kid skating around following the play. If he were drafted in 5th round he’d have been cut a while ago.

Chytil continues to impress me

Fontaine reminds me of Fast

Lettieri is a player just not sure he’s an nhl player just yet.

Not much sustained offensive pressure that's for sure. But tough to take much out of preseason.

 

[Irishguy42]

Again...

Avs won all their preseason games last year.

Means nothing.

But no, obviously the Rangers preseason games mean more for how they'll do in the regular season than it does for any other team.

Re. Lax.

But obviously, our offense is clearly dead and won't be there at all this year.

 

[SA16]

The Rangers also haven't come close to icing a full team in the preseason

 

[Leetch3]

Anyone know if msg go app still only works if you are in market? Away on business and stream isn't playing

Who said it won't be?

 

[Ori]

I was so happy I thought the coaching staff had made adjustment on the pk from the last game, but I was wrong.

 

[ponytrekker]

I’d rather have Kapernuck in this team than Stall.

Haven't heard that comparison yet. I like it.

I think it might be that way for the vets but kids are competing for a spot on the big club.
It means something.

Mhee two.

Come on now, Henrik has great hair and beautiful eyes.
Besides he always is his best after Kwanzaa

I was more talking about the overreaction from the fans on here. Based on some people, how we play now in preseason 100% represents regular season play.

Of course it means something to the young guys.

Overreaction from fans on HFNYR?

Impossible.

I don't think its all about winning vs losing, it's more about quite a few things look 'off' and unless the Rangers as a team can very quickly 'flip the switch' to season mode then they could become issues throughout the season.
I also don't see anyone saying that these games mean more to us than other teams. It's just that after a stupidly hot start to last season we were pretty average for large stretches, and there's quite a few question marks about this roster, which preseason hasn't done much to answer

 

[Ori]

yeah the rebound was rough, but comeòn our defenders were completely out of positions 4v5 in the last seconds there.

 

[Revel]

Ohhhhh, I didn't realize Chytil forced the turnover on the Nash deflection goal. Nice.
