[Amazing Kreiderman]

Is fighting in the final 5 minutes of a game still an automatic 1-game suspension?

 

[Ail]

lol Kreider

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Hot microphone.

 

[NYR]

> Has bad opinion that our best center and 2nd/3rd best defenseman are trash "pansies"
> Complains about people calling out said opinion

This is our 3 win of the season.
This team was dismantled and put together like shit

 

[trilobyte]

Kreider burning with emotion and animosity

 

[Drew4u]

Even Pavelec looks better than Lundqvist....

Don’t think so? Hope not

I thought it was instigating in the final 5 but I could be wrong

 

[Captain Lindy]

Demers was the third man in there. Years ago they threw players out for that right away.

 

[E-Train]

Demers bailed pretty quick.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Vesey can't pass the puck.

 

[Krams]

Vesey is a black hole

 

[Ail]

Waive Vesey.

 

[Captain Lindy]

Kill the turtle, please.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Can we get an upgrade on Vesey? Please

 

[bl02]

Come on Vesey. trying to defend you but its getting harder and harder

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

I thought it was instigating in the final 5 but I could be wrong

You're right. My mistake.

 

[NYR]

I believe you disliked Stepan too correct?

What would work for you?
McDavid on the 1st line and Crosby on the 2nd

Ziba has been good. Shatty has been good


Move. On.

No..Stepan would still be a NYR if it were up to me.
I've moved on but you keep arguing that this is an improved team which is complete BS

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Vesey has to be the worst passer in the league. I noticed this last year, any odd man rush died on his stick.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

The problem is, I do remember. The Rangers were 4th in the league in GS just last year. Why did they have so little trouble scoring goals without all of those puck movers?

Listen, I agree that the game has changed. There's little use for slow, shot blocking types anymore. But Shattenkirk came advertised as somewhat of a liability in his zone and he's been worse than advertised. For a guy that apparently cares as much as he does, he sure seems to be "careless" and lacking in effort to me.

Where has he been less than advertised? Maybe to people who were relatively uninformed about what to expect.

I mean I don't know about you but this team did have issues scoring over stretches. Let's not forget that through the beginning of last season, they were scoring in absolute droves, and that was unsustainable. We need a guy like 22. Do I wish he was better at shot sup and overall defense? Yes, but I'm more than happy with what he already brings to this team.

It's not just about the game changing. What I wrote is particularly about people who want something to complain about for the sake of complaining/seeming edgy for no reason.

I happen to be drinking some Bluepoint Hoptical Issusion tonight my man.
They sell it in bulk right around the corner

I'm still not drunk enough to see what it is you're seeing with certain players and their performance though.

If you'd like to elaborate I'm all ears..

Shattenkirk's play in the defensive zone isn't as strong as the class of stay-at-home defenders.

His net effect on the ice though generates more positives, offense, breakout opportunities and less time in the defensive zone squandering around.

Staal is "solid" in the defensive zone but he's in there more often than anyone and can't move the puck out of the zone to save his life.

If you focus so much on the individual plays in the defensive zone by Shattenkirk, it will look bad like if you're staring at the manure trench behind the flower bed.

Zoom out and take a gander at the overall impact he brings.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Can we get an upgrade on Vesey? Please

We can call up Cracknell.

 

[Tob]

Is Vesey drunk? All of his passes are like 2 feet off. He's the inverse of Zucc.

 

[DanielBrassard]

We can call up Cracknell.

Better than him

 

[Bob Richards]

We can call up Cracknell.

His 3rd waiver run in like 2 weeks? Dammit, man, show some compassion!
