Post-Game Talk: Where's Winnipeg?

[Machinehead]

It's a tough trip and the only game that actually made me a bit nauseous analytics-wise was the Calgary game.

Interested to see how they play at home.

Chris Kreider is 10 goals away from passing Adam Graves for #3 all-time for the franchise lead. Greatest forward this organization has ever drafted.

Deserve a nice 2 sides dinner after watching this long road trip.

That’s not saying much, and truthfully very sad.

Well, greatest forward they drafted & kept, anyway.

A sound, long term formula for success.

Is 3+ seasons worth of games not enough of a sample size?

 

[RangerLifer]

It's nice to see Mika's shot from that spot finally go in.

 

[Machinehead]

Yo f***ing Kreider is amazing man

 

[Kovalev27]

Wait a minute we play at home thurs so only two days off and then fly out to Minnesota the following day? This is the toughest schedule in the league to start and we’re 7-2. Wild

It’s time for todays hilarious 4th line facts of the day brought to you by grit.

-2nd game in a row the 4th line was not on the ice for a NYR SOG (10 min TOI total). 1 shot attempt in that time frame!
-1 SOG in their last 4 games
-All of that with Bonino winning 60% of his draws. Faceoffs though, very important thing to prioritize clearly

I could actually grab 4 of my friends and we could fling one puck in the general vicinity of the other teams net if you deploy us w Fox

Yes the Minnesota Wild

Absolutely. Unfortunately we've all seen how the movie ends.

 

[Chytilmania]

First time they've gone 5-0 on a road trip ever I think.

They came close in 2014 but lost 1 game bc AV needed to get Glass into the lineup (He was directly responsible for both goals against in a 2-1 loss vs Dallas.)

It was the only game they lost over a 14 game span and I believe the only game he played in. Criminal that he used every excuse in the book to give him regular minutes by the end of the season when they were clearly better with out him.

They went 3-0 twice that year I thought. They haven’t had too many 5 game western road trips.

Can't fathom whey they didn't go to Minnesota first. It's like right there.

The Wild be home on Thursday.

 

[Synergy27]

Fix the fourth line and this team might be able to make some noise.

I bitched and moaned about somehow getting slower all off-season. If we had some guys in the bottom six that could just buzz around and create havoc I’d really like our chances against just about anyone.

The schedule maker is a moron.

 

[Brutananadilewski]

When do we go on our next West Coast swing (Cali)?

I see the Rangers smacking them around like Gavin Newsome did to that Chinese kid in basketball.

 

[Fitzy]

Wonder if Lav will risk Jones in for Schneider next game.

He isn't providing much at this point.

 

[McRanger92]

Absolutely. Unfortunately we've all seen how the movie ends.

A deep run as an underdog and a disappointing early exit. Name a team the latter hasn’t happened to. Laviolette has taught the team how to defend like a Cup winner

 

[80shockeywasbuns]

I’d cry tears of joy. Would be the single biggest change they could make to elevate this teams play

 

[Machinehead]

This was another game where we had the slight edge in xG top nine vs top nine and the 4th line posted shorthanded numbers.

Tonight, we didn't register a shot attempt with any of the three on the ice.

 

[mrmovies779]

What a win...what a road trip!!! Panarin is playing at an MVP level right now..he's been unreal.Fox quietly being Norris Fox again...and Vezina Igor is here bitches!!

 

[bl02]

He’s going nowhere because he wins face-off

pretty much and with Goodrow are pretty good pk pair. How is it possible that is possibly our worst 4th line in the last few years (we've had some bad ones)?

mid January

 

[bl02]

two comeback third periods in a row at the end of a 5 game road trip. They didn't have much in the third but they found a way.
