Post-Game Talk: Hard-Working Young Team, Sam

[Lua]

I like Wennberg's game. I feel like the points just haven't come for him. Also he is playing on the third line and basically no pp time so. I feel he's gonna be solid in the playoffs with his style of game.

Wennberg is absolutely part of the solution; I hope we find a way to retain him

Glad we can finally stop pretending Rempe is an NHL player

So the Rangers magic number to win the East/president's cup is 5 points now? (Boston/Dallas/Canes losses or Rangers wins)

Nedved, Dvorak and Fleury.

prucha also hit 30 not long after that

How can that be when there is a 60+ goal scorer? Because he played on different lines so not enough time with them?

As a unit. I support pp doesn't count

So I’m standing on the local uptown platform at Penn and who do I see leaning against the wall but one Mr Joe Michelleti.

Shook his hand and walked away to give him his personal space. Then he engaged me in a chat.

I won’t divulge some of the juicy bits but let’s just say he’s a really nice guy.

(no selfie to prove it as he understandably didn’t seem to be in the mood.)

It doesn't make any sense.

Do people wanna still trade Schneider for flashy young Center?

Depends on the center

That, and pp, ot, etc

Pretty much 3 points away from winning the Metro and 5 points away from winning the East. I believe we have the tie breakers on both Boston and Carolina. The Isles should be a real challenge in the next one. They've been winning a lot lately and showing a lot of resiliency. It looks to me like two of the Isles, the Caps and the Pens are going to take the last two spots. The Red Wings and Flyers are still there but they just don't seem as determined. Not having been in the playoffs in a while they've been fading in the stretch run.

It would be incredible for bread to hit 50, kreids to hit 40, and laf to hit 30.

I don’t think the stars will align that much, but i can dream

 

[KevinFinnerty]

Did they answer the trivia question? I must have missed it.

2000-2001 Dvorak Nedved Fluery

 

[Fitzy]

Yeah the Czech line, 30 games of Pavel Bure and the FLY line were three bright sparks in an otherwise joyless dark ages.

 

[noncents]

Depends on the center

who is the worst center you'd trade schneider for?

 

[Mamas Mustard]

I’m so late but the title to this thread might be my favorite from this whole season

Rangers killed it tonight. So glad they’re not playing down to their competition on this last stretch

 

[HolyHagelin]

who is the worst center you'd trade schneider for?

McDavid, and they’d better retain.

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

Everyone was good tonight. Vesey has looked good with the wonder twins in spurts, i don’t mind playing him there. Clearly Lavi and the coaching staff want to see what different looks are available to them. It’s a nice option to have a guy with Roslovic skillset available if things get stale or an injury happens.

I also have absolutely no issue with how Rempe is being used. He doesn’t need to play every game or even big minutes, he’s there to provide energy and be a policeman. He should be in the lineup against the Islanders. Hell develop more practicing and playing in limited minutes with the NHL team than he will in the AHL.

And he should send a message to them in case we play them round 1. I want it to be made clear that the goon line they’ve been trotting out for a century can’t run wild on us because it’s late in the season/playoffs.

We're the juicy bits related to the Rangers or non-hockey subjects? Sage avice for your own life?

4 Points for the division and 5 for the conference. I just don't see how they don't get the number 1 seed. Carolina plays Boston 1 more time so somebody is going to lose. Numbers are heavily in Rangers favor.

 

[Ranger Wolf]

It doesn't make any sense.

I’m thinking this list is 5v5 only and requires those 3 forwards to be on ice when the goal is scored. So goals scored in between line changes wouldn’t count for the trio.

 

[Machinehead]

Powerplay, penalty kill, different lines, overtime.

Let’s just say he had a lot to say (mostly unsolicited) about the wonder twins. Aka, he’s seeing what we’re seeing - and he implied he said some of it on air tonight (not that I heard any of the broadcast tonite of course).
Edit: reply fail…this was to the person who asked what the juicy subway bits were fr Michelletti.

That Laf empty netter was for all the times he hit the post this year.
