i have ocd and am really annoyed that Rooney's bucket has a CCM decal from like 2009 on it instead of the current one everyone else has.

players choose their own equipment and wear whatever brand they're comfortable with (same with gloves, sticks, skates, etc)

Miller just saved Quinn’s ass

 

[Kaapo di tutti capi]

Would rather Hajek than Johnson.

Would rather the least athletically inclined member of these boards than JJ

Rent free

We also lost without him earlier in the season

You would of lost your shit if you were an Isles fan and got one glance Butch Gorings lid.

 

[duhmetreE]

We win because Shesterkin started and he looked like Shesterkin.

We still looked lost for 2 periods. That will not fly against Washington.

We also won without him earlier in the season in the game the Rangers looked at their best all season.

 

[Black Aces]

Unacceptable. Flatout shocking.

This cannot keep happening. He admitted to making a mistake about Kakko's icetime two games ago. It is unacceptable from a "development coach"

Do you really have OCD? I hate when people overuse that word.

Miller Igor Panarin

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Igor Buchnevich and Fox.

Kreider’s energy helped in that second but props to the 4th line for really turning this game when team seemed dead

 

[aufheben]

I know the stats say that face-offs don't have a huge impact on possession or expected goals, but f***ing hell, they really do kill us.

No, that is the point when they absolutely matter.

This is accurate. They will need to play as they did in the 3rd for the whole game vs the Caps.

Miller Kreider Igor

 

[Machinehead]

I did the thing

 

[LOFIN]

I really don’t care if he looked like shit. We are still in the rebuild play the damn kid

The reason why we are going to be on this rebuild is that we are not allowing the kids to rebuild this team! Less than 10 mins first for Kakko, now for Laf, that's UNACCEPTABLE. I don't give a f*** how many mistakes they make, these guys need a leash a mile long. And they are getting an inch. And then we have Panarin, Buch, Kreids, Zib etc of our "top guys" doing the job and 4th liners killing the time. And Kakko, Lafreniere and other kids stuck in the middle.

yes

We also won without him earlier in the season in the game the Rangers looked at their best all season.

We also made it to the play-ins with him.
He also had 53 points in 68 games last season.
He was also a +12 last season for those of you who care about that stat.
Sure, he had a rough start, but if he gets over his mental issues, I’m sure he’ll be back to being great for another team (sadly).

yeah, on the one hand I'm glad we don't see Pitt for a while these games have been torture, the downside is we still haven't played the 3 best teams in the division yet lmao

 

[True Blue]

God, they needed this win.

Times 10

Oh, I know. I haven't seen that decal/logo in almost a decade. I went back and looked at some images from earlier in the season, looks like the same bucket, with different decal. weird.

He's gone.

:::sad music:::


It's time to move on. Time to begin the healing process.

 

[Kords]

Vally just said Mika's problem is he isn't getting set up. Dude has whiffed way too many one timers on the PP all season, idk what he's going on about

 

[aufheben]

That’s the first win I’ve seen in 11 months.

For once, the Rangers got the job done in the 3rd. After a brutal first and a mediocre second. My favorite play was Miller riding h Pens forward along the boards in the last 15 seconds and wrapping the puck around the boards for the empty net goal.

Kreider played really well. I liked Buch’s two-way play. Lemieux had a good one as well.

Defense played sound all the way through.

They’ve been playing sound defense all season.
