Pre-Game Talk: Blackhawks @ Rangers

[Beacon]

Need this one and the Kaneless Hawks should be tired after their late start against the Islanders. Gotta keep the hot streak alive. Chicago and Anaheim are the best team the Rangers will face the rest of the way. Minnie is the only other non-wildcard playoff team. Get 'er done boys!

Go team Glass!!

 

[Sirius Vivace]

With MSL out, hoping to see Hayes on Power Play Line#2. Might be what we need to get the Power Play moving!

 

[Hire Sather]

As I said in the post game thread, after 2 games against weak teams and then 2 days off, this team will be ready to go at home on national TV.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I'm sure AV let it known in not so many words that their "effort" on Sunday will not fly this game.

 

[aufheben]

Looking forward to lengthening our winning streak against this team.

 

[RGY]

Still wish Klingberg was recalled and playing over Glass. I wish i could say the real reasoning is because of the cap but thats highly unlikely.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

The Beaver returns.


Hope he gets a warm reception.

Deserves one.

Show the Garden the Game 5 goal, that'll get him his pop.

Now is as good of a time as any to ask this. I've seen him called the Beaver forever, why? His teeth?

Yes lol.

I think it's because he likes to build dams.

so early pre-talk.

 

[The Mouth]

AV has made the Rangers one of the most resilient squads and I'm hoping for a bounce back after an awful outing against the Panthers. But I'm concerned that loss of Klien will be more impactful as we go a long here and the Rangers could suffer some losses as direct result of it. But LGR !

 

[Beer League Sniper]

Hunwick struggles against bigger teams, but we shouldn't have to worry about his play against Chicago.

The upcoming games against Anaheim, LA, Boston, and Winnipeg, on the other hand, I would like to see McIlrath get a shot in one or two. RH shot, and better equipped to handle those teams.

(And please, don't look at my username and think I'm some huge McIlrath fanboy. I just thought it was a clever reference.)

 

[Whitehawk1186]

I wouldn't be surprised if we lose this one. I mean, we are due and Chicago is a great team. We are bound to lose a few games sooner or later, and this one seems like one for the taking. On the other hand, the way the Rangers handle injuries, Fast or Miller will probably score two goals a piece, with one each on the PP!

LGR!!

 

[Giacomin]

The Rangers have done well against the Blackhawks recently.
LGR!

 

[5 4 Fighting]

Is this game tonight? LGR

 

[OnlyTruth]

The game is tomorrow. But it is kind of nice to start early. It is like drinking before the party.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Klingberg? You mean Lindberg?

 

[Fugazy]

Hopefully the loss of Klein won't have a noticeable impact.

 

[The Lunatic Fridge]

On one hand, it sucks that the games are getting spaced out so much. (for fans anyway) on the other hand, spaced out games are just giving lundqvist, MSL, klein etc that extra time to heal while games aren't being played.

As I said in the post game thread, after 2 games against weak teams and then 2 days off, this team will be ready to go at home on national TV.

The last thing any of the boys care about is if they are on national TV or not. Besides, I'm sure they don't want to get their space invaded by Pierre either.

 

[Raspewtin]

Think we're due for a loss here.

 

[GordonGecko]

14 Games remain, 28 max points
Rangers magic number:

Playoff Berth: 10 points
Division Title: 19 points
East Conf Title: 22 points
Presidents Trophy: 24 points

We are bound to lose a few games sooner or later

That's what preseason is for.
