GDT: ECQF: Game 3 - New York Rangers @ Washington Capitals, 7pm ET, TNT, MSG

[lakeshirts37]

Tro has really blossomed into a leader on this team, which is what Drury envisioned when they signed him. Strome with jam.

Give him the C and blast trouba to mars

 

[KevinFinnerty]

I'm not worrying about Panarin...now Ovechkin woof

 

[LOFIN]

If he can't get it going against Washington I have zero faith in him doing anything against anyone else.

Trust me, it can happen and probably will. We'll worry about him when we are losing, we'll take it 1 game at a time.

Mikko Rantanen was heavily critized for his lacklustre performance through the first two rounds of the Avs cup run in 2022. And many people still probably don't think of him first when they think about the Avs cup. They think Makar, MacKinnon, Kadri, Nichushkin even... Yet Rantanen was the second best scorer behind Makar. Yes, he scored more points than MacKinnon.

I will allow Panarin to sleepwalk through some games, as long as he gets it done when it really matters. I understand your concern, but I'm not ready to cast judgement on him yet. He needs to carry us when the rest of the team is in tough. So far we have not been.

 

[DanielBrassard]

it's not helping that he's been thriving with getting double shifted and he's getting .75 shifted rn bc of special teams

I think he's gonna break through. he looks way way different than the last two years


what about his goal?

Broken play and a 2-on-1. But if he gets the puck with the defense set he has been invisible. Against a terrible capitals defense.

 

[Leonardo87]

Not offensive, just dumb

Thanks for your input. I really appreciate it.

 

[Atax]

Give him the C and blast trouba to mars

LTIR Trouba for some knee stuff and add players at the deadline like every other team.

 

[KevinFinnerty]

close out this 3rd pun intended!

 

[Captain Lindy]

Gretzky looks cooked. Damn.

 

[will1066]

Utah knows how to bring in a new sports team

 

[pld459666]

Too many penalties.

Panarin seems to be a guy that needs a regular shift without the long durations in between.

NYR's need to stop the penalty parade.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

I just wanted to take note here, if anyone is offended by the Trocheck Italian meme, let me know. I am 100% Italian and have no issues with it.

No worries you chooch.

* - Half Italian so I can use this.

 

[Reijo29]

Wennberg has been really good as a Ranger and tonight is horrific. He’s probably playing hurt, didn’t he miss a practice for maintenance yesterday?

 

[gabevh3]

So Chytil for wennberg next game?

 

[DanielBrassard]

Roslovic has been excellent tonight, I’ve liked his game all series honestly.

 

[Svenhart2008]

So Chytil for wennberg next game?

Looks probable

 

[TheDirtyH]

Broken play and a 2-on-1. But if he gets the puck with the defense set he has been invisible. Against a terrible capitals defense.

Maybe so. I think Washington is really benefiting from "playoff reffing" in this regard but that's just my opinion

 

[Messrules11]

Panarin is a problem guys.

I'm sorry he's just not someone who is going to get you through 4 rounds.

Username checks out

 

[DialUp]

This series so far is NOT where Bread is written off. He hasn't been that bad.

I just wanted to take note here, if anyone is offended by the Trocheck Italian meme, let me know. I am 100% Italian and have no issues with it.

Nah man, we've had worse stereotypes. see: tripping plumbers

 

[Filip Chytil]

So Chytil for wennberg next game?

I am available if they need me

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Roslovic has been excellent tonight, I’ve liked his game all series honestly.

His line has been phenomenal.

I'm happy with basically all the lines for the most part.

We're a good period away from being up 3-0 in this series with Panarin being our 11th best forward.

 

[Crease]

Once you give up on the idea of Kakko being an offensive dynamo, you really start to like his game.

 

[Cmox]

ughh they're probably going to be the yetis

 

[80shockeywasbuns]

JT Millers one legged shot on the strong side PP is an absolute cannon

 

[gabevh3]

LTIR Trouba for some knee stuff and add players at the deadline like every other team.

You think the league doesn't check? At least i think they do

 

[n8]

YES KAKKO GET ANGRY
