Rick Nash

[ChrisKreider20]

I wonder how Gaborik would play if torts played him in his natural position

 

[nyr2k2]

Nash is amazing. He reminds me of Jagr when he decides he's just going to go to the net.

 

[Blue Blooded]

Rick the 3rd, our lawd, we're not worthy.

That's my new name for him, Rick III.

His ongoing scoring streak is now 8 games where he has gone 6-7-13.

5-3-8 in his last 4.

Meh doesnt score big goals

 

[King Henrik]

The Silent Assassin strikes again.

 

[BB58]

keep piling up 3rd period goals.......

 

[NYRKING30]

This could go down as one of the best trades in this franchises history. I was originally on the IDK if I want him for THAT price at first, but man this guy is 100x better than expected. Here in NY it seems like he is actually making players around him better. So happy to have Rick here.

Dat Rick Nash hand-eye coordination

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

What is this sorcery, OVER 1 PPG ON THE RANGERS? Overrated.

Rick Nash is one dimensional. Only scores in the 3rd period when we need it most.

7 game pt streak

7 game pt streak

Nope, 8 games!

That's my new name for him, Rick III.

His ongoing scoring streak is now 8 games where he has gone 6-7-13.

5-3-8 in his last 4.

7 shots tonight, still shooting under 10%. If he can get his % up to career average and keep up his SH/G, he'll score at 49G/82G pace. Incredible.

Well, after a slow-ish start for Nash during which most of us got on him, myself included, and a slower start for the team, during which a lot of us acknowledged that Nash has been great but perhaps not worth the price paid, I think it is becoming pretty undeniable that Nash is the most dynamic, dominant and exciting player we've had in a long time. Perhaps not on the level that Jagr was right after the lockout, but also a bit more exciting for me right now, because of his age.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

He's still fat, lazy, overrated, bad defensively, overpaid, and a choker.

In all seriousness, though, he adds a different dimension to this team. He can take over games.

 

[Boruto]

i love Torts' "As advertised".

 

[Pizza]

Every game Rick Nash does something that reminds me of why I watch hockey.

 

[aufheben]

Have a chance to win every night, between him and #30.

 

[LORDE]

There were a few times tonight where he's said "Screw it! Ill do it myself then"

He needs more help.

But god he's a monster

 

[Ryan McDonut]

Rick Nash is one dimensional. Only scores in the 3rd period when we need it most.

what a joke. does this guy know theres 3 periods in a game?

 

[TheRedViper]

If only he woulda scored on the end to end 1 v 4 rush he had midway through the third... would've been ridiculous!

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Meh, he's a puckhog, not a team player, trade

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

He needs more help.

I disagree. Nash is a puck carrying, puck possession player. He's most effective when the puck is on his stick. Hagelin and Stepan are perfect linemates for him. They do a great job of just getting the puck on his stick, Stepan in particular.

Unless you meant that the rest of his teammates need to start scoring, that I agree with.

Yeah that rush where he took the puck and just powered through all 5 Islanders comes to mind.

 

[Krams]

Imagine how bad we would be without Nash

We'd be just as bad as we would've been last year sans Dubinsky and Anisimov.

Nash is a monster.
