GDT: Rangers vs. Penguins 3/14/18

[DanielBrassard]

How does Buch just fumble that lol.

 

[Ghost of jas]

Not sure I see rebuild and the cost of EK jiving in the same concept.

To bring in EK65, Shattenkirk would have to go, for starters.

 

[Kakko]

This has been the worst commentary I've ever heard at a hockey game

 

[LeetchisGod]

All I think about in a game like this is what the Penguins will be once Crosby and Malkin are either shadows of themselves, or retired.
It's a good thought. Something tells me there will be some empty seats at PPG Paints Arena.
Can't wait.

They'll time it beautifully to get their next two hall of famers in the draft.

 

[RGY]

Sproul is beyond terrible. There isnt even a word to describe how bad he really is.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Gilmour isn't an NHL player. Too many bad decisions on when to join the attack and when not to. Unless you are Bobby Orr with the offense you create, you aren't going to add enough points to make up for the points you lose your team on the other end.

 

[duhmetreE]

This defensive system is terrible.

 

[Ghost of jas]

Skjei not having a good game.

 

[Mac n Gs]

Yeah, I'd say that one's a pipe dream unless we bank cap space for a year and pay him as a FA. I guess it depends how the market turns out this year and who we bring in. Bobby Mac did say we still have more trading to do

 

[GregSirico]

Does this team just look mentally checked out? Honestly. I know people don't like to admit that, but that's how it looks on the ice. I know they are a bad team but it's mistake after mistake that a focused team doesn't make.

 

[CHGoalie27]

Huh?

Hank isn’t playing because Georgiev has played well and deserved a second straight start.

If a backup got a second straight start every time (the team played good for him for a game)...maybe building trade bait?

Probably because they're gonna tank the rest of this season, and there's no real reason for Hank to have to deal with this gongshow tonight

I mean I guess, but most of his career has been a gong show in front of him and that's one of what's made him so special this whole time, no?

 

[Harbour Dog]

How the hell does Milbury have a job? Beating a guy with his own shoe should only get you so far in any business.

Can't wait.

They'll just tank again and through some undeserved miracle get 2 generational players for the 3rd time in a millennia. I don't think I've ever hated a team more than the Penguins.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

So much effort with Fast, not so much skill, though.

Yeah, he reminds me of lias andersson a bit

Not sure I see rebuild and the cost of EK jiving in the same concept.

Yeah, I found that comment from Bob strange...I'd say it depends on what it costs. If Gorton is willing to Ryan's contract, I could see us getting Karlsson at a decent price.

Doesn't make much sense to trade for him, though. I could see Gorton being interested in Karlsson as a free agent, although there's no guarantees he hits the market. Which is where the idea of trading for him comes in, I guess, thinking about it.

 

[Larrybiv]

Susan Sarandon has a broadcast degree from the University of Andrew Dice Clay. OH!

I got that one. Oh!

I'm sitting here like an ass hole talking to the screen wishing them to stop not giving a f***.

 

[Ghost of jas]

Well played, young squire.

 

[RGY]

During that entire shift just now Gilmour was just standing in one spot looking around. Head turning trying to figure out life. He really is pure garbage defensively. Too bad that is the position he chose.

 

[Larrybiv]

100K dollar fine for the next Ranger who makes a drop pass.

Wouldn't be so bad if that "drop pass" was dropped into a players wheelhouse that could actually shoot the puck with accuracy. We have NOBODY that can do that. Just saying.

Hank has faced an immense amount of shots recently. It really isn’t a big deal to play Georgiev two games in a row (especially with where the team is currently)

He’s more than deserving of it.

 

[GregSirico]

This is actually quite depressing ... I think this team is a lot further from being competitive than we think,

I mean he's literally never been on a team that was firmly out of a playoff picture. There's no reason to make him play a pointless game in March when they're trying to put themselves in better position for a lottery pick. I wouldn't want them to risk injuring him in meaningless games, and this is good experience for Georgiev. Henke will be back at the helm in October and hopefully in a new system that doesn't rely on him so much to win.

 

[Ghost of jas]

All I can say, Gorton better not screw up our chances to get Alex Turcotte next year.

 

[nevesis]

Shoot the f***ing puck.

 

[GregSirico]

All I can say, Gorton better not screw up our chances to get Alex Turcotte next year.

They better start scouting 10 year olds at this point.
