Well I’m looking forward to drafting Brennan Othman’s best friend.

 

[NoQuitInNewMexico]

I watched the Giants, the Jets and the Rangers today

 

[Kords]

Mika and Kreids went anti-injury invisible mode once the game slipped away. Their 4th line never stops playing and it was the difference. That and goaltending.

I liked Hunt, Goat and Rempe. Laffy and Fox still the future.

Isles are a terrible team to play when you wanna evaluate players. Not taking much away from this.

 

[EdJovanovski]

1. Kravtsov
2. Hunt
3. Lafreniere

 

[CasusBelli]

I'm sorry, my guy. I skipped the Jets and watched the Ryder Cup. So that was good? I stopped watching the Mets weeks ago.

Staal was terrible, Hank always gives up a softy, Nash wasn’t brought here to be a penalty killer and Callahan is a glorified third liner.

Kraken playing their first ever game right now, which is at least interesting.

 

[Roo Returns]

Laf showed some progress. Fox did some good things at 50% effort. Lindgren was in Super Sloth Mode.

Kravstov and Chytil were noticeable but the downgrade from Goodrow to Hunt hurt.

Hunt though looked fine as an energy 13th-14th forward.

Lundkvist did some decent stuff. Give him a few more games.

Kreider was just lazy tonight. I'm over him. Captain my ass.

I liked the kids 4th line but it's best they start in juniors or AHL.

Barron didn't do himself many favors. He probably gets one more game and then it's off to Hartford.

They played with better pace for most of the game. Nice not having Coach Doofus behind the bench anymore.

 

[chosen]

Gallant showed us what a real coach can accomplish.

 

[Kords]

Laffy SZN



Also, noticed he had Laffy printed on his sticks so i'll no longer feel obligated to type his name long-form.

Lol I posted a different photo of this same event in the game thread

Can’t bring myself to vote for anyone. Sorry.

I voted but who I thought were the three worst

 

[EdJovanovski]

I voted but who I thought were the three worst

Then why does Kreider have 0 votes

I can GUARANTEE the Rangers won't finish last in total wins between these teams!

 

[PuckLuck3043]

I can GUARANTEE the Rangers won't finish last in total wins between these teams!

Well right now they just need one.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Best players were: Fox, Kravstov, Laf, Goat and Hunt

Worst players were: Kreider, Geo, Tinordi, Bitetto, Lindgren

In no order.

Nothing was expected from the Rangers tonight. Somehow, they showed even less.

 

[Crease]

A few stray notes from the lower bowl:

• Tinordi surprised me. He’s big, has an enormous wingspan, and was a stabilizing presence on many shifts. He does nothing fancy, but doesn’t need to as a 6 or 7 guy. Very talkative out there, directing teammates around.

• Henriksson is SMALL. Like Zuccarello small. His game will need to develop a lot if he’s going to have an NHL career. I don’t see it right now.

• Guy in front of me was wearing a Capitals Lundqvist jersey.

• I loved Chytil’s body language tonight. He looks very comfortable in the NHL now. It’s his fifth season, which is crazy to think about. Someone said he’s a more skilled Anisimov and I agree. He is very physically gifted and takes care of himself off the ice. He can be a career top-six forward—if not this season, he’s getting closer.

 

[FultonReed]

Lundkvist is heckin skinny.

also, it's easy to sneak nip bottles of Jack into MSG. that is all.

 

[Elliman]

No way 10,000+ people were at that game. Crap game. Bad atmosphere. Overpriced. Disappointed.

Tinordi is more than fine as a 7D who can step in as an insurance policy in case of injury or slumps. He's a big upgrade on Bitetto and Hajek IMO. He's far better than Woywitka or Falk or Diaz and those were guys we had as 7D while contending and winning President's Trophies.
