[The Crypto Guy]

Biggest game of the season. Playoff implications are ON THE LINE.

 

[Ail]

Enter the record setting losing streak.

 

[ElLeetch]

Rubber Match, they're gonna dunk on us, and win by a field goal.

 

[Crease]

The conditional first era begins.

 

[Mike in Houston]

Filip Chytil heads to the Quinn Bin for effort reasons. May not be a short stay either.

And while the ABC line was great in the possession metrics it's clear that David Quinn does not make a lineup based off them.

 

[Matt4776]

The beginning of a 6+ game losing streak.

[EdJovanovski]

Two jerseys man he looks like a bozo

 

[Alluckks]

Chytil hasn't been scoring and I have clearly read several posts per game that question his skating and back checking.

I don't think he doesn't care. The dude clearly loves the game and is not some type of locker room cancer. I'm more apt to believe he just doesn't think of it. It isn't a subconscious habit to continue to skate hard and back check.

Quinn teaching lessons the hard way. And no question players can always learn from the press box too.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

I predict a conditional loss.

The conditions being that Tampa Bay scores at least one more goal than we do./

 

[Shesterkybomb]

I like that Lias and Lemieux are playing together. I think they will feed off each other.

 

[duhmetreE]

Maybe it's contagious... Lias playing with Buch... Then seeing Buch hit people left me dumbfounded... What's he going to do with Lemieux and Lias?

A Buch/Kucherov fight is in the cards

 

[Messrules11]

Well this should be interesting

 

[offdacrossbar]

tampa is really good.

we suck

5-3 rangers win

 

[LORDE]

Y you not Chytiljuice???

 

[TheDirtyH]

maybe the promise of lemieux getting more minutes means lias might play more than 10 mins finally... when are we going to give our #7 pick some powerplay time? hopefully tomorrow

 

[Leonardo87]

This one is going to be like a fat kid on a see saw.

 

[McRanger]

This one is going to be like a fat kid on a see saw.

I will plan to be both amused and ashamed of my amusement.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

extremely glad to see Lias and Lemieux together. those two gonna make tampa bay hate their pitiful existence.

 

[Alluckks]

Lemieux Lias Buch our new Hagelin Brassard Zucc 3rd line?

RW brings the passing and most of the skills
C elevates his game
LW brings speed and board play

 

[MyLoveIsBlue]

Tampa Bay has 100 points. Kucherov has 101 points.

At the end of the game Kucherov will have 103 points and Tampa Bay will still have 100. Go Kuch.

Lemieux with a Gordie Howe Hat trick.

 

[ETTER DE]

No more free Rangers matches here in Norway it seems. With Zuuc gone, they are showing other matches

 

[Zibanejbread]

Tampa Bay has 100 points. Kucherov has 101 points.

At the end of tonights game Kucherov will have 103 points and Tampa Bay will still have 100. Go Kuch.

Lemieux with a Gordie Howe Hat trick.

The game isn't tonight, fyi...
