This win doesn’t change my opinion either. We will benefit from changing our depth and that starts with a top 6F. Preferably someone who can play center.

I don’t know. If you get a wing, it probably bumps Mikey. Because you need either Pro or Willy, each of whom play a solid 200 foot game, to cover for Ovi - who usually doesn’t. And bringing in a new center and giving him a month to learn to play with Ovi seems like a really tall order - would require someone who plays a solid, two-way game at C. Maybe that’s O’Reilly - but 34 year old ROR and 39 year old Ovi could be a tough watch in the D zone.

I could see bumping Mikey for Rantanen, but it’s a pipe dream. Canes will want too much and they probably wont consider moving him to us. So a better scoring touch on the 3rd line is what I’d look for

I like your goalie takes and i know you played. But you overindex. Good and bad. LT earned his contract. He is not an MVP. The dandum… maybe. Best bang for the buck in the league for sure.

Wilson has led in a big way. Chychrun in the convo. So is PLD. Protas broke out.

Hey I'll let you in on little secret! I'm human!

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Don’t care. They are so far behind us. I just wanted to win! 2 points!

I want them not in the playoffs. And no part of them in a 1v8

 

[SherVaughn30]

Blame Bettman for the 3 point game parity system.

 

[SherVaughn30]

Only negative is we're back in the President's Trophy race. Jets are 0-2-1 in their last 3 after winning 11 in a row. It is what is I guess. Caps/Jets are still elite above the rest of the League!

Has anyone ever done the California road trip? It's something I've always wanted to do.

I'm going this year! Planned it after the hot start but before the injury where it looked like those could be prime dates for 895. Crazy to think that if he hadn't gotten injured it probably would've been too late ...

Or you can take a top 6 and play him down. Just want depth and flexibility. I don’t want Eller and Raddysh in the top 6.

this off season still has to be about finding a way to take mika out to pasture. i don't care if you have to acquire an accused child molester with a 15M AAV. Anything to get away from this soft pansy who still wakes up in the middle of the night with nervous excitement over his 5 goal game but suddenly has the confidence of a 5'4 200lb man at a speed dating event the moment he steps onto the ice.

Ranger fans having a normal one, what Tom Wilson does to your brain

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

I think it’s also time to give some recognition to Carlson. Super underrated play on the OT winner and he doesn’t get an assist.

That stick lift on the backdoor tap-in pass to JT Miller avoids a sure goal and sets up the 2 on 1 the other way for the win.

We like to criticize him a lot but he doesn’t always get the credit he deserves.

 

[Ridley Simon]

That def felt like a playoff game. Felt good to beat those a-holes in front of their fans.

Suck that

 

[Corby78]

Deserved win Imo, rangers second goal should never have happened, and they weren’t all that dangerous offensively to me. We win that 3-1 going away if they make that call right

 

[RedRocking]

Chu Chu Ching!

 

[ovikovy817]

I hope we don't do anything stupid at the TDL because of this very bad officiated game.
The only thing we can do it's to buy some refs if we meet them in the PO.

Ovi
Willy the owner came to the office, won the game and now he can go home

 

[RandyHolt]

Oh Willy scored perfect. Icing on the cake would have been him barreling over the goalie after he scored but us old school folks don't always get what we want.

Rag fans be like: HE SHOULD BE BEHIND BARS

 

[Cappy76]

Roy gets hit from behind

Only negative is we're back in the President's Trophy race. Jets are 0-2-1 in their last 3 after winning 11 in a row. It is what is I guess. Caps/Jets are still elite above the rest of the League!

This should remind everyone how good they've been playing all season. Jets have had multiple 10 game winning streaks this season and they're neck and neck for 1st overall. Consistency!

 

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Raddysh sucks. More Frank please.

Or Miroshnichenko plz
