GDT: Preseason - Game 3 - New York Rangers vs New Jersey Devils , 7pm EST, MSG

[Shesterkybomb]

I don't know how we build up Jones stock but i don't see him having a future here. I think he'll be an nhl player but not here much like Lundkvist.

 

[Machinehead]

Some guys come out of college and need a few years, there are guys who came up through the A that way and end up having solid careers.

For every one of those, there's a hundred who made it to camp and got as far as camp.

 

[Ori]

Othmann can't f***ing skate either so there goes that excuse.

Lafreniere just sucks at everything.

He's the kid in school who was 6'1" and had a beard freshman year and he got to spend three years playing against children.

We won in the wrong draft year and started too early to move players that is the main issue, and bad timing by our previous GM

Jones's upside is Gustafsson in a couple of years. Not sure if the Rangers or the player want to wait.

To me, Jones is fine. He's just...fine. He exists.

Would much rather see Gustavsson in that spot.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Offense stunk tonight. Mika Kreider Laf line was brutal. Don’t even think Mika bothered to try tonight which just made the whole line useless all game.

Cuylle/Kakko/Brod line was the most effective.

Cuylle has to make the team.

 

[markymarc1215]

Right now Jones has a trajectory of a NHL tweener who can put up points at the expense of sound positional play. Someone of the Matt Gilroy-Thomas Pock ilk. I am rooting for the kid and he seems like he has a good attitude. Just not expecting much at this point.

 

[Machinehead]

Idk Kreider was great the other night when perpetual sadness wasn't playing RW with him.

boards in mid-season form. welcome back, guys <3

I still love this place.

LaF reminds me of Alexandre Daigle.

Stats state he isn't a bust but the eye test tells a totally different story.

I also just threw up a bit in my mouth saying that.

Daigle was much better on both fronts...

 

[Profet]

Laf is still waiver exempt right?

Just send him down. Let him play top line in Hartford for a few months.

 

[SRHRangers]

Daigle was much better on both fronts...

The worst thing about the Daigle pick was that the Sens played complete homer and took the Frenchy over Chris effin Pronger

And we took laf over stutzle...

 

[Tob]

We need Bald Panarin to be a 130 point player.

Has to go through waivers. Trase him before regular season starts. Trade him to Coyotes Bluejackets or one of the bottom teams. He is a dud

hell yeah, dude, wouldn't be here if I didn't like you guys.

plus, the msg app absolutely blows and I missed the entire game, I need to read everyone's opinions

 

[duhmetreE]

in 25 games in the playoffs.

 

[FultonReed]

in 25 games in the playoffs.

you have us losing 9 games in the playoffs, how freaking dare you??

 

[duhmetreE]

Idk Kreider was great the other night when perpetual sadness wasn't playing RW with him.

same can be said for Zibs and his overrated onetimer

All I Can say from this game..

Othmann good.
Shesty ready to go
Laf not sticking on Top line

Othmann and Cuylle more noticeable than Lafreniere has been this training camp and preseason games. Trade Lafreniere. He sucks at hockey. He should pick a different career

 

[TheGortonConspiracy]

lmao good one

 

[bl02]

Cuylle is really impressive. Gotta like his game between his skating, size and even making some nice creative plays on the rush like in third going one on three and holding up to find the trailer. Does not look out of place at all.

What can you say about Laf? he waited 59 minutes to make a play (which was ok) to create a chance.
You gotta move this guy down the lineup and get Kakko on the first line RW.
I used to use the excuse he stinks at RW and is playing out of his comfort zone but honestly not sure if he would be effective a 1LW or 2LW at this point.

 

[17futurecap]

I don’t think there was ever a competition, but the Gus Bus locked up his regular spot in the rotation tonight if there was one.
