Post-Game Talk: New York Rangers at St. Louis Blues - March 17

[Machinehead]

Man he's such a wild card. WTF happened to him?

He did come in out of shape and that's on him, but this system is also his antithesis.

I expect him to be an effective NHL player again.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Gilmour is a disaster defending anyone and O'Gara shouldn't be in the NHL. We always hate AV.

Oh ok thanks. Didn't want to be out of the loop.

 

[Machinehead]

With two points tonight, Lazy Chris is on pace for 55 over 82. And he played most of the season with a damn blood clot.

He's been great since coming back. This team went into the shitter when he went down. That pass to Zibs on the PP was a thing of beauty.

An unreal pass. I hope he keeps chasing that “C” And keeps this play up forever. Long live KZF !

Ya’ll giving zero credit to Schenn, that was a gorgeous goal.

Your team scores good goal ---> goal scorer is destined to become Mike Bossy

Mike Bossy scores the greatest goal of his career against your team ---> god damn it this team is shit these pylons couldn't stop a beach ball

I think DeAngelo will have a role on this team, where I don't know but he's a lot better defensively than I thought. I wish he scored more, but then again I want this team to shoot the puck more anyway.

I think he's just very focused on making his game as a D man work better. Imo, he fixes that and his natural offensive skills will come more into play at some point. So much talent and grit. I really hope he can bring it together.

24-year-old 7th round pick with one month of NHL experience gets burned by veteran #1C in 3-on-3 overtime.

 

[Pizza]

Just a gorgeous play by Kreider. Man he and Mika are really making a statement. Just great to see them playing this well together.

It was a nice move, and finished well.

And I don't hate Gilmour that much FWIW.

 

[ETTER DE]

Zuuc terrible defencively. With a little effort he could have stopped both the first goal and the overtime winner. Just does not skate. Does not seem to bother anymore.

o pls Pionk would have had that shit on lock no problem

Yeah, but Gilmour's positioning was complete garbage which led to the goal.

 

[Synergy27]

Yeah, but Gilmour's positioning was complete garbage which led to the goal.

I like Gilmour, but this is the problem. Yes, it was a pretty move, but 3 on 3 is all about positioning and there's just no reason for Gilmour to be outside the hashmarks there. He ceded the slot for no reason at all. Shows a real lack of awareness.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Sometimes a play is just a great display of skill by the opponent. It doesn't always have to be a bad play by the defense. I've seen guys like Weber, Subban. Josi, Doughty and Karlsson get turned around like a play similar to what Schenn did.

Not every goal is the result of a defensive mistake.

This one blatantly was. He had two options, play the body (because it seemed easy) or just hold the inside (because that had to be easy). If he THEN gets beaten by good play then the criticism would be a lot less. I don't mind Gilmour, but that was dreadful. Doesn't much matter I suppose.

But the opposition scoring a goal means the right team didn't get things right and the wrong team didn't get things right either. It's not supposed to happen.

 

[Kovalev27]

Gilmour really can’t defend and he’s what 24 years old? Going on 25? I dont think he’s ever going to be a defenseman at this level. His skating let’s him dominate at ahl level but here it will only take you so far.

An rfa. I would trade him maybe someone sees him falls in love with his skating and gives up a second rounder.

I want a healthy in shape Brendan Smith back on this team next year

Expect this time it was. Blues fans were asking me if he was a injured call up. I said I wish he was.

He's an AAAA player

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

He was. The reason he was initially called up was injury. Shattenkirk and McDonagh were both injured. Staal was out with a concussion.

Meh. He's still up when Shatty is healthy. I think this was the plan all along.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Meh. He's still up when Shatty is healthy. I think this was the plan all along.

Because by the time Shattenkirk is back, there's no point in having him play with nothing on the line.

But he was initially an injury call-up. He isn't a shoe-in for an NHL spot.

 

[Igright]

This way we're unlikely to fall down much. We seem to be destined to take the 21st place. 6 teams from the East and 4 teams from the West can stay behind us till the end ot the season.
