What did Marchand say to Panarin? 'No one in Russia likes you'

Can we please get Reaves to knock this motherf***er out next time we play them so he shuts his mouth? Why would he say that to Panarin?
Eh, Panarin & Shesty are my favorite Rangers and I'm part Russian but I'm not going to pretend to be offended by this. If someone on our team said something like this to another teams player, most Ranger fans would laugh and call the other teams player soft for being offended by it. I don't think he should be fined over words, hockey is a tough sport. I hear 100x worse things than that every game I've played growing up and nothing has ever offended me lol. Use it as motivation, hit him hard, score against them, beat them, but don't cry and demand they be punished by the league

Agree, asking for a fine for that seems delusional. Sean Avery saying another guy has his sloppy seconds on TV broadcast is one thing but in game saying “X hates you!” is not a big deal...

Are you serious? If that's all he said (big IF) it's really not a big deal. I mean, a bit of sore spot for what happened last year and I personally wouldn't like it, but it's sports. Players say worse shit all the time.

LMAO with the $11.6M comment at the end.

It's not a big deal, but just seems like a low blow to bring up politics during a hockey game, that's all I'm sayin.

I agree he shouldn't, nor should ANYONE be fined over WORDS, ever. I just feel it was kind of a low blow to bring up politics during a hockey game, literally while they were still in the game, on the bench. I mean, take it outside, if you want to talk political shit, call him a stupid motherf***er, thats fine with me, don't bring up political stuff in the middle of a hockey game.

SO YOU DO SEE THE PROBLEM WITH THAT!!
 
Panarin is clearly sensitive to things related to Russia and his politics, he stands up to Putin when nearly all other Russian NHLers don't, it's clearly important to him and it's his cause. So when someone uses that to get to him, it will work. Like if someone was standing up for abuse in China or whatever, and that was used as trash talk, it would incite anger as well and should be somewhat off limit for opponents because it's a real problem in the 'real world'. That's how Panarin views it at least.

That being said, you can't expect punishment for it being used by Marchand, and Panarin should grow thicker skin because other rats around the league are going to start using that too to throw him off his game if they see it works.

He should have just laughed it off and asked Marchand if he's ever seen the comments on his own twitter posts, America isn't exactly in love with him too.

The ESPN lady in between benches was like OK THAT HAPPENED and calmly JAMMED the 'I have something to say' button once Panarin threw the glove lmao.

Marchand was also using his stick to try to get the glove off the ice to probably scratch his ass with it, but the linesman immediately stopped him, he knew what was coming lol
 
I agree with everything you say about how he plays from the blueline in, but he hasn't been better in his own end, he's lost in there and it's part of the reason that line isn't getting more minutes.
I disagree. As far as minutes, everyone is getting decent minutes. When you have Kreider lighting up the board, Panarin and Strome having awesome shifts and scoring streaks, and a fourth line that has been our best line on most nights,... how many minutes do you expect the kids line to get?

If you look at the video of Gauthier's goal, in the next few highlights after the goal, you will see him make quite a few good decisions with and without the puck. And he has been consistently doing that of late. Chipping the puck up the wall and getting it deep is a big one. A lot of the defensive play for wingers is making sure that the puck gets deep and is not turned over at the blueline or neutral zone and getting caught on an odd man rushes. Wingers don't generally protect the front of the net. They collapse when necessary, but are generally responsible for the points.
