GDT: RANGERS @ avalanche | 10pm | MSG+

[bl02]

Listening to NHL Network as I type this in my car and Boomer just mentioned MacKinnon is out 1-2 weeks with a LBI.

FOr fantasy owners of his, that suX bigtime tho I think my team is good enough to stay in first place with just 3 weeks left.

For the Avs tho and their playoff hopes, that’s great news seeing he’ll be back in time to get back in form for the playoffs and his other injured teamates will be back as well by than.

It also lets MacKinnon get some rest so he could go full bore come playoff time.

I have a strong hunch that sometime in the next 5 years, there will be a Ranger Avalanche Cup final and that my friends would be epic!!

With Kreider scoring the overtime winner in game 6 to win the cup.

Yea I’ll have to watch some of it on PVR because I have hockey at 1am est lol

is Shesterkin playing???

1.3 million - 0 NYR

Kakko (700,000)
Buchnevich (500,000)
Panarin (100,000)

You're starting to get a little crazy with your predictions.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Need to win this one.

Quinn should go right back to Igor but in the pregame yesterday he said he was using another goalie today.

 

[Larrybiv]

Just a heads up Makar is back in tonight. But the rest of this post concerning the Avs is 100% accurate. Crazy injuries for us to close out the year.

And yes the late start blows. Thanks NBC.

Thanks for the heads up. Good, I wanna see the kid play. Earlier there was quite the discussion about Maker being "so much better" than our "rookie", Fox. Honestly, IDC who is better. Fox is such a revelation, and he literally appeared out of thin air. What a blessing for our organization.

 

[MetalJaws]

This game is a gimme. If it's not, then we have no business making the playoffs. I like many others here, am very disappointed in the NJ and Buffalo effort. They better show up.

I have the same opinion with the constant Makar/Hughes debate on the main board. I don't give two shits which one is marginally better, I'm just happy one of them is on my team.

That will be a Claude Lemieux dream matchup. Assuming his son is still with us, that is.

Where have I heard that before? Oh yeah, before the devils game. Nothing is a gimme in the NHL, especially against a good team on the road and on the second night of a back to back. We also have injuries with Kreider and Chytil out. I say it's 50/50 at best especially if Shesty isn't playing.

 

[Leonardo87]

Fox > Makar

 

[Larrybiv]

I like Quinn, I do, really do. But with that said, if this clown coach doesnt play Shesty tonight and throughout (maybe minus 1 game) then may he enjoy the nice, long off season. Absolutely NO reason to NOT play the kid. None, whatsoever.

This is a very real possibility. Can't wait.

 

[East Coast Bias]

MoneyPuck gives us 38% chance of winning

back to backs for us, on the road. Most of the algorithms weigh things like that heavily.

 

[itsPLkielbasa]

Lets get some more goals Kakko!

 

[NCRanger]

So Colorado is basically a team full of third line assclowns?

Ranger auto loss 2-1.

 

[RGY]

So who is also out in addition to Mackinnon?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

This is the centre depth you are facing:

Jost
Compher
Bellemare
Kamenev

Congrats on the win basically

we just got blown out by the Devils. Anything is possible with this team.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

If we lose this game, fire everyone and blow it up. Look for Namestnikov to have at least 2 goals.

 

[romba]

Quinn should go right back to Igor but in the pregame yesterday he said he was using another goalie today.

Quinn already said before yesterday's game that he's going with a different goalie? Why is this the first I'm hearing of this?

Lucky us. Of course Makar comes back tonight.

 

[LOFIN]

I'm an Avs fan first and Rangers 2nd, hoping for an OT win for the Rangers tonight. They need the points, the Avs are pretty much a lock for the playoffs. Shame they can't really fight for the division (and west) win with these injuries.

 

[Maximus]

So who is also out in addition to Mackinnon?

Pretty much everyone who is any good other than Landeskog...lol

Just got word from one of the guys from Avs board that Makar will be back.

 

[Fitzy]

It's a lot of travel so I'm not surprised they aren't playing Shesty back to back.

Be nice if Kakko could inch forward towards 30 points on the season.

This is the centre depth you are facing:

Jost
Compher
Bellemare
Kamenev

Congrats on the win basically

I raise you with

Zibanejad
Strome
Howden
Fogarty

Congrats, you win back.

Just tweeted the hockey gods hotline...consider it done.

A 3 point game Rangers 4 Avs 3 in OT...win/win for everyone...your welcome...lol
