[Overcast]

Prior to this season I hated C-bomb. I thought he's a punk and not much of a player but I gotta say he's looked good in Ranger blue this season. I still hate him... But I think I would give him the nod. He's essentially fresh... No fatigue.

Can't forget the ex-team factor too, regardless how short he was there.

 

[aufheben]

Yep.

"But he plays in a defensive system! He could put up a 100 points if he wasn't!"



McD>= Doughty.

I heard someone compare McDonagh to Mike Green.

wut.

 

[aufheben]

Uh...

Doughty's height, weight, and date of birth: 6'1", 213 lb, 12/8/89

McDonagh's height, weight, and date of birth: 6'1", 213 lb, 6/13/89

Doughty's last three seasons: 95 points in 203 games

McDonagh's last three seasons: 94 points in 206 games

Doughty this postseason: 17 points in 25 games

McDonagh this postseason: 16 points in 24 games



Doughty shoots right, which is rarer, but McDonagh's cap hit is $2.3 million lower and each is signed for the next five seasons.

Yeah but Zil, you're missing the most important part: McD isn't a Canadian-born Top-5 draft pick.

 

[NYR89]

Can't wait to leave work in 90 minutes to get home in time for this. Let's ****ing go!

Also, great find on those Doughty/McDonagh stats. So similar.

 

[Cobra Jack*]

Well, since it is Friday the 13th...

 

[KingP]

Need that first goal

 

[gardenparty]

Yeah but Zil, you're missing the most important part: McD isn't a Canadian-born Top-5 draft pick.

Nope. The most important distinction is that McD isn't a whiny **beotch**

 

[NYRKindms]

I would bet doughty's toi is a lot higher than McD as well. The other game they were talking about sutter playing him close to 30 minutes ala chelios

 

[RangerLifer]

Need that first goal

And second. And third. And fourth....

[Infinitum Vitae*]

There's usually games that spell lost but this one has win written all over it

 

[ShootThePuckBarry]

Just win L.G.R.

 

[blue425]

You know what the Kings don't want to do? Come back to NYC for game six.

Make those ****ers come back to NYC.

Didn't know McDonagh was a clown until now.

disagree. they may be workman like but can they close the deal ? i still think hank gets in their heads tonight and frustrates them. they dont want to go back to ny for game 6.

all the pressure is on them tonight at home. lots of energy but will it work against them ?

agree we need a few early goals and for sure some breaks.

i would like to see nash on the pp as well and both mcd and moore on the points. i like moore firing away slappers off that mcd pass. no more richards on the pp. hes done.

like usual, henrik is the key. if hes on, we have a pretty good chance.

i feel pretty good about tonight.

For any negative you can conjure up about them, one thing you can't say is that they rattle easily.
