Post-Game Talk: Rangers @ Islanders 3/7/13 - What Is This Gaborik You Speak Of?

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Miller looks poised with the puck and makes some good puck possession plays. However, he still has a ways to go in his offensive abilities and finishing. I think he can get there, he has the potential.

 

[The Gloaming]

1. Rick Mother****in' Nash
2. Henrik "God" Lundqvist
3. Derek Stepan

We kept Tavares at bay. Nash continues being beastly. How's that turnaround looking now, Fishsticks?

 

[Net Front Presence]

What a great game!

Nash
Lundqvist
Hagelin

 

[Thunderhead]

Devils win in SO. So still in 8th. Still have two games in hand.

We'll pass them soon. We are 3 points ahead 9th place(Flyers). Beating the Sens tomorrow is a must.

 

[17futurecap]

Girardi 23:27
McDonagh 22:29
Del Zotto 21:54
Stralman 18:30
Hamrlik 15:48
Eminger 15:04

Scary at times, but nice to see the top pair not be over worked with a game tomorrow, and early Sunday.

Kyle Okposo was assessed a game misconduct after the game... probably said something to the officials.

The scoresheet says "Game misconduct - team staff" - not sure what that means.

 

[ecemleafs]

Yeah, I'd like to see him develop more scoring touch but that will hopefully come. He's a solid player already and good at puck possession, which is key

On the other hand Boyle is ****ing terrible this year and needs to go. I've been a Boyle defender in the past but he is just playing really really poorly with the puck this year and it's embarrassing. Rangers need to let him walk after this season

boyle needs to be put down on the 4th line and only see the ice on a rare shift or when we have a defensive faceoff we need to win. hes got 1 point in 19 games now.

 

[Kakko]

Stepan - "Just pass it to Nash"

This guy knows what he's talking about

 

[Levitate]

howd boyle play bad?? this hate has got to stop... that was a hell of a game!!!! back and fourth and we found a way to win the game.. stop the nit picking!!

In the past he's been an effective third line player. This year he's very bad offensively and can't even keep the forecheck going. He's terrible with the puck and is honestly only good for his defensive contributions. I doubt teh Rangers bring him back next year at this rate.

It appears that Prust was the one who made Boyle look good last year. He's off having a great season for Montreal while Boyle is looking terrible for the Rangers. Would have been better to ditch Boyle and give Prust the money he wanted

Just saw "The Good, the Bad, the Bickel" post replacing the Redden for the first time

I wanted to ask this yesterday and it's a bit off topic, but I've heard the Islanders referred to as the Brooklyn Hipsters. I don't understand the Hipsters part if someone wouldn't mind chiming me in.

On topic, Nash is a beast, it's amazing having someone with talent on this team. Hank had one of his best games of the year. I have such a man crush on McD, I really hope eventually he can better his offensive game and take that jump to that elite level.

Brooklyn has a lot of areas, like Williamsburg, that have become over run with hipsters. Thus people saying (jokingly) that they're going to become the Brooklyn Hipsters. If you don't know what hipsters are, they are basically douchey guys who think something is cool simply because it's ironic. Or something, either way, they can be pretty hateable.

I'm now convinced that Richards is the problem on the PP

Brooklyn is turning into a hipster place.

You know, fixed gear bikes, ironic clothing and 'grown up' grilled cheese joints.

WTF is a grown up grilled cheese joint

Nash projected in 82 games. Approximately 36 goals 55 assists 91 points.

Why do these penalties even matter? What's the point of giving a player a penalty when the game ends?

? The power plays before OT were horrendous. Anyone should click on a 4 on 3.

 

[Kane One]

Awesome. Thank you.

That bad?

 

[BlueshirtBlitz]

Were you sitting next to Clinton?

I was at the game too and when they announced Slick Willy was there I wanted so bad to go try and get an autograph. Couldn't get close, though.

I think the alcoholic had some words with an official. Probably something about "what do you mean I'm slurring my words."

Actually, now that I refreshed the page, it's a 10-minute misconduct. STOP CHANGING YOUR MIND.

 

[Cmox]

Also way to stay out of the box. Good ****.

Rick Nash, Derek Nashlin, and Henrik Nashqvist.
