Post-Game Talk: So long, old friend

[noncents]

it just is very obvious the Rangers and Kakko are not in each other's long term plans

please explain this. what makes it obvious? explain it to me like i'm a complete dummy because i must be to not see it as clearly.

i know about the article in finnish newspaper where he says "i want more minutes." i know his name is in trade rumors, like kreider and miller.

what am i missing?

Now, are we gonna grab a dman and center with our cap space?

I don't think we do. I think we grab a dman and roll with these centers for better or worse.

You answered it. I think there's a particular group of players that are gonna still get moved and all the guys you said are in it.

Agreed. I think Kakko has a future on the team. A good one.

Team isn’t out of the woods. For two periods no one could put up a goal besides Panarin.

Kaplan mentioned Kreider, Smith, Lindgren and Kakko by name as guys who could still go.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

My expert opinion is this was a fine win but the defense still blows ass and they need to replace Lindgren and Mancini at a minimum

I think getting a Lindgren replacement is needed. Mancini, I wanna see him play, I'm ok keeping him into the lineup until the deadline or until a time where it's obvious he needs more ahl time. Right now I think he is fine and will only get 3rd pair mins while he adjusts. I also want another center, I dont trust Mika and I dont trust Chytil to stay healthy. It would do us a lot of good.

Well they could have beaten the Wild 8-0 tonight and that would still be true.

This was one of the better games they've played in the last month and they've played shittier against worse opponents.

For one night at least it was nice to see the better lines actually play well against a team that has been playing pretty well lately.

I wouldn't be surprised to watch them dud out against Seattle on Sunday, but theres no need to downplay wins when they're deserved.

@Machinehead Your pupper (and title) on the first page. Did something happen to your pupper?

I thought the same thing.. I'd love to see the league wide stats on that.

I'd love to see the islanders

Lmao it's Trouba's

Lindgren's eye is jacked. No wonder he struggles. Btw Thanks for posting these video here. You do it every game. Props to you.

Oh. Okay. Lol. I figured, but I wasn't too sure. Haha.

He's got two. One named Donny lol

 

[DelZottoHitTheNetJK]

Crosby was hot ass

I'll give it to the Pens, they played a good game. They're not a good team, but they competed hard tonight. Thought we actually played really well and with structure.

PP1 sucks, for the love of God can we please bring back the Kreider screen/ Mika high blocker shot and work some one timers from over there

That’s gonna require Mika to actually be able to handle a puck with a stick near him

As usual, the mains got it wrong. Pete was an Ecuadorian penguin on loan from the Pittsburg Aquarium/Zoo. He developed pneumonia and died because he was a tropical penguin and not meant to be on the ice and in the cold. How do I know this? My buddy’s dad was in charge of the aquarium’s penguins and was held responsible for the penguin’s death.

That's crazy. I just thought the sequence of events was funny in terms of the franchise trying to make their fan base happy and it completely backfiring on them...they stuffed their mascott!
