Post-Game Talk: RANGERS @ Maple Leafs [mod warning post #378]

[haveandare]

They are 12-4-1 since firing Babcock. Just doing small things like not playing Cody Ceci on your top pairing can do wonders for a team.

They're still giving up a lot of goals. The D is still pretty porous. Generally, high scoring teams who can't keep the puck out of their own net in the regular season don't bode well in the playoffs when other teams clamp down.

They just gave up 5 to NYR, gave up 4 to the Devils yesterday, 6 to the Hurricanes on Monday.

You can't depend on trading goals and playing pond hockey in the playoffs. They haven't won a round in like 5 years, I don't see how they've improved on their flaws the last few years.

Put some F'ing Respek out there man. You're going to be an old timer some day. Don't **** on a legend.

Eh, I might die before I'm an old timer. It was post made in gest, take a f***ing chill pill.

Poorly constructed teams can go on good runs just like anyone else in this league.

Specifically poorly constructed for playoff hockey - you know, when it gets physical.

The dreaded middle is our destiny

12-4-1 since Sheldon Keefe is the coach, out shooting and out possessing the opponent almost every game despite having multiple injuries, but I guess it’s just a good run right?

Why are you here?

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Sam won't peaked yet until he calls a too many men penalty when the whole bench jumps on the ice to celebrate.

I'd want them to extend his contract just for that.

On a related note: Given the diaspora of our fan base as well as the fact that many are cord cutters, I'm willing to wager that more than half the people shitting on Sam are watching Ranger games from non-MSG feeds

What kind of a place makes you walk up stairs in skates?

 

[Creepingjeff]

I thought Kreider had a really good game. He made a couple of very nice defensive plays and helped drive play all night. That being said, I couldn't vote him above Strome, Georgiev, and Panarin.

I haven't felt the same since I cut my core. Everything feels different.

NO LEAFS NO!

When you were vacationing with your family in Prague, did Sam's miscalls bother you when you were watching the games on a ported feed of the away team that were dubbed over in Swahili?

One of the rinks I play at has dressing rooms on a lower level and you either have to walk up the stairs or take an elevator to get to the ice surface. Walking up/down stairs in skates isn't difficult at all though lol

Do you put on your fuzzy pink skate guards when you go up the stairs?

I watch through the app, and the MSG feed is always an option.

It was weird watching with Swahili announcers, I'll tell you that

The stairs are made of that gummy material so you can walk around on skates
I have stepped on the ice with skate guards on before though

Just seems like something better avoided, even though it might not be difficult

A lot of our fans don't know who Ogrodnick is because their parents were born when he retired. They watch the condensed version of the game on TikTok

It's better than the click language feed

Man you guys are rough on Sam. He had a bad night, it happens. He’s closer to the end then the beginning, we all know that and I assure you he does.

The day Sam hangs em up, I’ll shed a tear. The guy’s voice has been in my living room since my earliest memories, and he’s been here for multiple generations of Rangers - have a little respect.

The Canadians and their metric systems...

SMH amirite?

Pretty sure the Devils walk up the stairs at Prudential for every game.

These are the same folks who think Strome is a third liner who's being overused and thus finding too much success for their liking

Careful you might get a infraction.

Makes sense with their record.
