GDT: #44 - 01/14/18 | RANGERS @ penguins | 7:30 - NBCSN

[KirkAlbuquerque]

hoping for another 7-2 loss so AV can get shitcanned finally and we can be sellers

 

[Claxton]

Lets go Penguins!

I'd love to see Henrik further cement his legacy, but his MVP caliber season is hurting this franchise right now, and helping a coach that should have been out the door a long time ago.
So naturally he probably puts on another 40 save gem today.

 

[Chimpradamus]

I'm happy this game is so late, so I'm unable to watch this. Expecting another total clown show, while the clown boss will do nothing but smile and chew gum.

 

[Glennsoe]

Incoming 3 point night and a fight for Hags tonight..

 

[cheech70]

Let the slide continue..sell sell sell.....Mac is regressing pretty quickly dump while we can.

 

[Larrybiv]

If this teams winning or losing hinges on Kreids, well then we are one lousy team. Kreids cannot cover open players that were left open by Shatty and many of the forwards suppossedly coming back. Staal had a very crappy game........Does Shatty know how to HIT a player as opposed to going for the puck in open ice? Lousy defensive play on that Islander 2 on 1 goal. OTH, HAYES WAS A BEAST and was by far the best player on the ice, not including studs like Barzal and Bouvoilierre and others wearing an Islander uni that had not won a road game in 7. Nice home showing Rangers. #notveryhapoy
Furthermore, when will this team shoot right away and not dust it off?

 

[Larrybiv]

You know what Hank was telling his teammates? "Tonight was my off day, and now i have to clean up this mess. If you guys think you're gonna play like this in front of me vs Pittsburgh......you've got another thing coming.

 

[Irishguy42]

Wonder who gets the start tonight.

 

[Captain Lindy]

Larry Brooks called out the coaching big time today. Zuuc did some calling out too, of the entire team. Great article in the Post.

Good for Brooksie!!!

 

[Leetch Fan]

As far as the suggestion someone had in the post game thread that the captain needs to drop his gloves and lead his team, he, while basically getting pawed by Simmons with a gloved fist, ended up concussed. I don't think we want him fighting anyone LOL.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

I'm just thankful this pooch screw isn't on at 12:30...

 

[Ori]

The whole team had an off day including defense last game, but it will be a difficult game for sure Pens team looks hot after new year with 4 wins out of 5 games.

 

[klingsor]

Wouldn't be shocked if they win tonight.

Would surprise me if it made any difference in the long run.

I think "uncomfortable" for Valiquette translates to "pukeworthy" for me.

 

[Captain Lindy]

Here's a gem from Brooksie in today's Post:

They fancy themselves as fast, but they recently have looked like go-carts on the Indy 500 Speedway against legitimate speed teams like the Blackhawks, Devils, Maple Leafs and Red Wings and against quicksilver players such as Barzal.

OUCH!!! That'll leave a mark.

 

[nyr2k2]

Let's....go Rangers, or something.

For when Larry ghosts:

 

[Claxton]

"Its a dumb hockey game by us. Dumb. We don't think. We have two guys going to take one."

"Its not what we stand for. It might look like we don't care or we don't give 100 percent, but thats what it looks like when you're dumb."

Yes Zucc. Dumb. That would be your gum chewing egomaniac coach. I really hope this is a low key call out and the players are turning on AV.

 

[Flying Puck]

Kreider is an elite player.

Nobody cares when he's around but you notice it when he's gone.

Kreider is not an elite player in the NHL. He never has been and never will be. He shows us flashes at times but his inconsistency kills him.

 

[Crease]

Love a good Sunday night matchup. Dog park, gym, grocery, cook for the week, and then a bottle of wine with this gongshow.

 

[aufheben]

Wouldn't be shocked if they win tonight.

Well said.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

If we play like we did yesterday. Pittsburgh will put up double digits

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

I almost puked when I saw av say it was what about the players are doing for him now, but he continually trots out Holden staal Kampfer and smith like they’re f***ing playing nhl hockey this year

Smith hasn't been playing.

 

[Fvital92]

Well, hoping for a win, but if we lose, it better be a loopside loss. Maybe AV gets canned this way.

 

[Harbour Dog]

And Staal and Holden, on the whole, have been fine. Stinkers here and there, but they've averaged out to be effective at their roles this year.
