GDT: Rangers @ Kings Pt. III |Game 2| 6/7/14

[Hi ImHFNYR]

I want this to feel really really good when we win...but I will be shaking with rage if they lose.

 

[Raspewtin]

He was terrible game one. His legs are shot, dude. He really should be scratched.

Why is he on the PP still?

The PP I absolutely agree with. Get him the **** off.

But it's a huge, I mean HUGE risk to replace Richards with Miller or any other center. He's not (I guess he's not) a 4th liner with a limited skill set. He does have a lot of skill. That's awfully ballsy with the potential to seriously backfire to scratch him for anyone else.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

You don't want to break the 4th line up.

He has to play at even strength, but take him off the power play.

The fact that he is still on it is bewildering to me.

 

[NCRanger]

I am preparing myself for the weekend ruining stomach punch.

Where's Chris Drury when we need him?

 

[nevesis]

Keith Jones....he can go somewhere and never be seen again. I'd really be ok with that.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

What's upsetting me is that outside of 2 3rd periods IMO the Rangers have been the better team and they may easily go down 2-0 in this series.

 

[bigbluebird]

Did he just guarantee a sweep if we don't win it? woooow

 

[Hunter Gathers]

The PP I absolutely agree with. Get him the **** off.

The problem is his legs are shot. He's done.

Richards (Brad) with the OT winner…. HF Boards has record number of post being modified and crashes site.………. Book it!

 

[DoTheBlue]

So who gets to drag Richards around the ice by a rope this period

 

[pld459666]

No idea. It feels like AV refuses to be creative more than anything else. It's lazy coaching.

Could be the Anti-Torts treatment although this is the finals and the best decision for the team trumps showing the guy some respect

I get that Brad may have been embarrassed by this team last year sitting him, but he continues to bring this on himself.

Put Marty at the point. SOMETHING

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Put Girardi or Moore on the point for Richards, I don't care at this point. Doesn't seem wise to have a forward on the point in OT, either.

 

[Blueshirt Believer]

Don't bench Richards but don't use him on the PP.

Simple.

Thats all you can do at this point. Rangers don't have the luxury of benching anyone at this point.

 

[SA16]

nvm delete

 

[Raspewtin]

The problem is his legs are shot. He's done.

I agree. 100% agree.

 

[FLNYR]

It sounded like Jonesy said if we lose this game were gonna get swept

 

[JCrusher*]

Clearly you did not see it clearly.

Nope saw it clearly he was tripped

 

[haohmaru]

Did he just guarantee a sweep if we don't win it? woooow

Yeah, that was pretty ******.

 

[Fitzy]

The problem is his legs are short. He's done.

His quick-twitch muscles and reflexes have left him. He, Vinny L, and many others are a testament to how some players just can't manage past 32. Some can get past 42, but previous career is no good indication of who can do it.

 

[timor]

What is this?? My body is giving up. Drunk. Neighbours banging the wall. Amazing! Give 'em hell!! Win this!!! LGR!!!!

 

[5 4 Fighting]

Lol I'm cracking up. This is hilarious. If I was the Kings I would be dying of laughter every time Brad is out there.

[BroadwayBlues]

Petition to get Miller in the lineup please.

Hagelin: Miller :St.Louis

 

[bigbluebird]

It sounded like Jonesy said if we lose this game were gonna get swept

Yup, exactly that

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Put Girardi or Moore on the point for Richards, I don't care at this point. Doesn't seem wise to have a forward on the point in OT, either.

Brassard on the point.
