GDT: Rangers vs Capitals (Today @ 12:30pm)

[Ginger Papa]

Nice win. Thanks for being so welcoming as usual.

 

[Machinehead]

You aren't addressing what I said.

What if it were the playoffs, genius?

You just gonna call it a serious because OVI is on the ice?

Listen.. Let's just stop here before to go into a complete unfounded hissy fit lol

Yes.

If Ovechkin is gonna score he's gonna score. He's the best scorer who ever f***ing lived.

Hajek quite good again. Had a couple of scoring chances too, but slow to tee up the shot.

 

[SRHRangers]

Devils got Steve Cangelosi back in the booth after Covid.

He looks like he aged 15 years in a month. Holy hell.

Glad he is back though.

 

[WojtekWolski86]

And he’s doing it with an AHL third pair.

He did his best work in Pitt with WSB defensemen.

 

[duhmetreE]

Great game to build off of.

I really hope they 'figure out' things offensively. as in 'change it' to where it's not shit.

Everyone looked good besides Zibs tbh.

Panarin is back to 2019 form.

Happy Strome played well away from Panarin.

I'd like to see Lemmy move up and play with Rooney.

The work Jacques Martin did with this defense, he deserves the Jack Adams

 

[will1066]

I'm going to say it. Quinn flipping Strome and Zibanejad worked.

 

[NYR]

Agree.

And you can take your own advice too.

You ready to step away from the ledge and talk hockey yet?

I criticize Fox and all the all of a sudden we need to lock the medicine cabinets lol

I'm honestly unwilling to give up on any of the forwards because of how Martin has turned every single d man around. Trouba looks like he's worth $6M at the very least, KAM and YAK both look great. Smith and Lindgren solid as a rock. Probably the best defensive coach we've had since Torts/Sully combo. Gallant or Monty can probably spark our prospects and 1st rounders into big time players

I am not sure what you are talking about.

I was talking hockey and you went in a different direction to feel better about yourself

 

[rdhstlr23]

That was a fun game. Any game where LaFreniere gets a point, is a good game.

This year is about the young guys growing.

Before Auf comes in here and yell at you people

Very subtly Lindgren and Fox have switched sides on the penalty kill and in certain game situations. I'd like to think that's a Martinnovation too.

 

[NYR]

Yes.

If Ovechkin is gonna score he's gonna score. He's the best scorer who ever f***ing lived.

No argument there BUT..We just gonna turn a cheek and let him go about his business or we gonna f***ing try to defend against him??
If you can't defend against him then you need to double team him so if the answer is no then you have no business in the NHL..

 

[Cmox]

The PK and defense are night and day from last year.

Imagine they had last years offense with this year’s defense? Man.

Hes on his wrong side, thats to be expected

Who was talking to you in the first place?

Dude..Just enough already.

Use your ignore button

He didn't score and had the worst analytics on the ice.

We defended against him.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

We just need Mika to get going and we are on our way imo. He's a huge piece of this.

You quoted my post and responded to me.

So your answer your question. It was you who was talking to me.

to a middling draft pick!

 

[kovazub94]

This goes to show you how bad Mika has been. The Strome line with kreider and Buchnevich has been buzzing all game. It’s Mika killing everyone all year it’s unacceptable

What do you mean by unacceptable? It’s not a laziness issue. Not coming unprepared. This drop off level not only from last season’s but also from a season before clearly indicates some “unnatural” factor - that we all know what it is.

 

[will1066]

Elaborate?

 

[CasusBelli]

not sure if our D has transcended under Martin or if Washington just sucked today because of the Matinee.

Little bit of both.
