Post-Game Talk: Where's Winnipeg?

[17futurecap]

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.

We are just giving the other team 10-15 shot attempts right off the bat with the 4th line, it's insane. However, really good to see the top 9 are controlling play.

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.

I'm literally salivating at the chance to hear Sam call a game with Alex Lafreniere and Alex Laferriere on the ice at the same time.

 

[Boris Zubov]

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

I admire your optimism. I'm skeptical until this soft core proves me wrong, but I'd love to eat crow.

Happy Birthday Breadman!

In on all 3 goals for a new Rangers road trip record.

Bonino isn’t going anywhere.

Kreider Mika Kane
Panarin Chytil Lafreniere

Goodrow Bonino Wheeler

I think he's 4th all-time right now with the longest point streak to start a season (9).

Hope everyone is looking forward to the inevitable main board thread about our road trip primarily filled with comments about the Vancouver OT no-call and Lafreniere.

time for my seasonal public service announcement where I remind everyone to stay off the cesspit that is the main boards...

 

[Breaded Fox]

Great road trip! Most top guys stepping up at times...but that fourth line really has clothes like a f***ing dickhead.

All we can do is watch and see what happens

Call up Othmann, stick him on my cousin Vinnies line,bump Wheeler to line 4 and sit Vesey.Bonino and Goodrow stay in for Pk duty

 

[bl02]

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

He isn't providing much at this point.

he just came off his best game of the year the other night vs edmonton. Not sure if benching the kid already would be a good idea.

Cliff notes, please

I admit I want Kane on this team against my better judgement. I think it would be additional motivation for a lot of guys with legacies & careers (in some cases) on the line this year

Thank you.

We still want to trade Panarin?

you somehow made the 4th line slower

Gustafsson was the dumpster fire on that pair tonight. He should sit for Jones Thurs. Wouldn’t hurt anybody.

I'm one of the ones who proposed moving on from Breadman...he's been all world to start the year.

I love the guy, but we need this Panarin in the postseason for it to be worth it.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

We still want to trade Panarin?

no we want to trade Krappo

 

[klingsor]

Too bad we weren’t sufficiently boring..
I little more boring and we might have won in regulation.

 

[Brutananadilewski]

Playoffs start in April.

Same goes for Vegan, Kaka, Laffy Taffy!

 

[Kovalev27]

You know what though that 4th line takes all the tough draws and they don’t get scored on while being very good pkers. You could do worse. Maybe wheeler sneaks in a few goals with those guys

 

[RangerLifer]

We still want to trade Panarin?

Nope. I'm eating crow very happily.

 

[hackeyman]

Don't understand the calls to sit Vesey. He's been head and shoulders the best 4th liner.
