GDT: Game 48: New York Rangers vs Vegas Golden Knights, 7pm ET (Game is on ESPN, and ESPN+)

[McRanger92]

Bonino on waivers?

Sam and Joe were raving about all he brought to game last pre- game Rangers propaganda.

I wonder what happened. I’m going to miss all those intangibles.

Pretty sure MSG state media tracks who the fans are complaining about because during one of the recent intros they were singing the praises of Zibanejad and "all the things he does well"

 

[FultonReed]

Where do you see that? My impression is that it will be streamed on ESPN+. Or am I misreading this:
New York Rangers Broadcast Schedule | New York Rangers

i was on the app and it wasn't on the ESPN+ menu. it wasn't on the Hulu app either.

Yeah I also think now that it's not available on ESPN+.

Looks like it's on regular ESPN not Plus.

Rangers win 7-0. Kakko 7 goals.

National telecast on basic cable because it's the Stanley Cup champions playing the big-market New York Rangers. If they don't mention the Howden story angle, I'd be surprised.

Probably show the Alec Martinez goal 57 times too.

NHL/ESPN have this in the schedule for multiple games/teams throughout this season. The game live is only available on espn with a cable subscription. You can stream it on the "ESPN+" app if you a logged in via your cable provider.

If you don't have cable, your only legal option to watch the game is to wait until it's over and it will be archived on ESPN+ (within an hour after completion). Sucks but it's ESPNs way of throwing a bone to the cable providers.

It is. They were flogging the hell out of this during Jokovic’s match this morning.

I heard that the NHL was going to allow Brett Howden to skate around before the game starts holding the Stanley Cup......

Better turn down the brightness on your TV or computer monitor because the championship ring he'll wear on his finger will be as bright as a thousand suns.

David Quinn said he wanted to bring a Cup to NY. Ironically, it was his son who did it. Quinn must be one proud father.

you'll find my phone stuck in the ceiling of the deli i work in if that happens

 

[Fitzy]

Oh dear

 

[Anthony5967]

Show must go on but this Chytil news is all I am thinking about. This is a backbreaker. A M*a Khaleefa style backbreaker. No weight on knee? Concussion issues already? Drury, pony up for Bjugstad or send 1st and 2nd for Lindholm.

jfc. I'd not even checked the Fil thread until seeing this.

Emily rushed to his side, I'm sure.

Oh nice I was starting to think I wouldn't have anything to live for this year.

Gus-Fox looked good in a tiny sample and it actually makes sense to me.

People balk at pairs like that and Miller-Fox because they see Fox as an offensive defenseman. He's not. He's a shutdown defenseman who happens to be a PPG player, which is very unique and valuable.

His passing is obviously excellent but he doesn't stretch the ice like a Keith Yandle or a Tony DeAngelo. He's not a very good skater. Nothing about him screams "PMD." He's world class in both zones with his transition offense being good enough.

A guy who excels at transition offense and maybe needs a bit of help at in-zone defense is a perfect partner. Lindgren, who sucks at transition offense, is not.

Lindgren-Fox is basically an old school defense-offense pair and it's not something that actually fits Fox's game. Looking at defenseman as defense or offense is bad evaluation.

 

[Fitzy]

Well that's a rather specific view of what constitutes an offensive defenseman.

Sometimes puck movers like Jay Bouwmeester score less than a guy like Sergei Zubov who generates much of his offense from the blue-line inwards

But if the point is that Gus works because Fox isn't out of position jumping all over the ice all the time then I agree with the sentiment.

Yea I’ve always said this, it’s hilarious listening to other teams broadcasts who know nothing about the rangers or youtubers, commentators, etc always describing Fox as a “speedy offensive dman” I’d say he’s better defensively than offensively

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

Probably show the Alec Martinez goal 57 times too.

And they'll have a good chuckle about it too.

Nah he’s better offensively , even though he’s good defensively . His offensive impacts are off the charts . He just doesn’t have the dynamism
