Post-Game Talk: Rangers @ Lightnings

[The S5]

Chytil is still a winger at this point. He has put together 3-4 responsible full games recently. Let’s pump the breaks on going after his critics expecting some come to Jesus moment. He has been very underwhelming all year in his 4th year. Is he young? Sure. He is “young”. But again this is his 4th year. Let’s see if he can keep this up for 30 games. 50 games. A full season. Glad he has at least a positive impact player the last week or so.

Are we forgetting injuries and that he was very good last year. The guy got no PP time and played with mostly plugs. He's still young. Be patient

Where’s today’s game day thread? I’m in attendance today in Raleigh!

 

[mas0764]

gallant confirmed geo

Are you kidding me? Again? I go to two Rangers Hurricanes games and I get Georgiev both times because they are off back to backs? That’s terrible scheduling and terrible coaching decisions.

 

[RickChartraw]

watching replay of that goal. i don't know how panarin got that pass through to Zib. satisfying ending.

Mods, like Drury, asleep at the wheel and don't work on weekends

Very even game. Reminded me of that Pens game, but better. I think this is how all of the games will look like in the playoffs if the Rangers play their best. Reminds me of that 2014-15 team winning in 5 against the Pens but winning every game 2-1.

I’m a little annoyed, went to edit some line ups and have to wait.

 

[duhmetreE]

we had limited opportunities but Panarin has choked away some grade A++++ chances. That wont happen that often

From the Lightning board:

Looks like they're having the same issues as we did, at least for a while in contrast we're:

Col: 0-2-0
Car: 0-1-0
Fla: 2-1-0
TB: 3-0-0
Tor: 2-1-0
Cgy: 0-2-0
Pit: 0-1-0
Bos: 2-0-0
Stl: 1-1-0
Min: 0-2-0

10-11-0

So we're beating the top 10 teams at a better rate than TB, the two time defending champs. For the longest time we were told because we were losing to the good teams we're pretenders.

We match up well against the East imo

We have really struggled with the top teams of the West

Good thing we play in the east then!

 

[SnowblindNYR]

So what has turned out to be the better trade for us, the Mika trade or the McDonagh trade?

Edit: The McDonagh TO the Rangers trade obviously.

 

[duhmetreE]

well... until it really matters

 

[SnowblindNYR]

well... until it really matters

Do you mean if we make the cup finals? Easier to beat one west team than three. Plus that would be a good problem to have.

@Gardner McKay can we get an unlock of the GDT kind sir

 

[chosen]

Wtf kind of schedule is this? 8:20pm puck drop in Tampa and then a 6pm start in Carolina the next night? Couldn’t make it a 7pm or 8pm start?

An hour or two makes no difference.

 

[chosen]

Mika was phenomenal in his own zone last night too.

He almost always is.

 

[chosen]

He will be partnered with Fox before long, another future star on D

I think it's more likely Schneider ends up Fox's partner.

I’d volunteer for moderator but given my history would be denied, lol.

f*** ESPN and their hip camera angles. Couldn’t see shit and I skipped ahead until they changed it back. Who can I write a letter to?

You can write to me and I will convene a panel to study the subject.

I'd do it just for limited duties. For being one of the biggest boards on HF, we should have a few more.

4 hours until puck drop

Perfect.

“Dear ESPN,

Regarding in-game drone camera usage, might I suggest to F*** OFF?

Sincerely,
