welp that was ugly
here's a cute puppy shakin it off;

This was the official good luck charm of the night.

MacDaddy

lol Kuch
never have enough

 

[RegularSznAllStars]

I was really skeptical about that mcD extension. Early take is that I was wrong.

 

[The Macho King]

Only two goats for me this game were Stralman and Kucherov.

 

[DFC]

So, I complained about Stammer after Nashville. After the at MTL, I questioned the Lightning secondary scoring.

What should I critique tonight?

Has Vassy had a shutout for a while?

Hedman's durability.

 

[These Are The Days]

He’s been better than draisaitl

To be fair to Draisaitl he's been better than Point at this peak here. But he doesn't carry a line the way Point does.

Well I've figured many of us would need a therapy after having seen our trend, 1st period collapse that is. Of course our play has cured us but God bless the cute being.

 

[TeslaCoilFan]

Okay, what on earth are our defensemen drinking and can we buy them a huge case of it?

Coburn got two goals a couple games ago and was a defensive beast that night.
Strålman got 3 assists yesterday and was a defensive beast that night.
McDonagh got 3 assists tonight and was a defensive DEITY tonight.
Even Girardi, Sergachev and Koekkoek have had some decent outings these last three games as well.

We don't even have Hedman and our blueline has been absolutely bonkers good!!

Technically he has one tonight

You forgot about Cooper already?

 

[Fabiobest]

Great win that should be a boost for our team

Lol the little ears flopping around are just too good.

We look like a team who's going to be a force in the playoffs right now. We don't depend entirely on fast, exciting hockey anymore. We can beat you 10 different ways now, with different key players every single night.

He did in that 1-0 victory over the Avs.

 

[dechire]

If the Lightning lose I'm going to clean out my fridge. If they win I'm going to go out for dinner. I really don't want to clean my fridge. Please come out hard in the 2nd Bolts

So excited to not clean my fridge tonight. Bolts coming in clutch to save me. Thank you Gourde and co.

As beast as McDonagh has been I'm worried been overworked so far so early this season, Rangers fans have been weary about his durability towards the end of the season. We need Hedman back soon to take some load off him

Yeah, I think its mainly because Hedmans been out.

To be fair, they told us that Girardi would be an AHL defenseman and that Namestnikov was way better than Miller.

Rangers fan coming in...

Ryan McDonagh is a sensational player who gives 100% all the time. Look forward to following the rest of his career. I think he will be a player that gets you over the edge to the cup.

A Kuch shot off the leg isn’t slowing that guy down. He froze a broken foot for the playoffs a few years ago so he could play. Total gamer.

 

[RegularSznAllStars]

To be fair to Draisaitl he's been better than Point at this peak here. But he doesn't carry a line the way Point does.

The last two seasons he has played more than 50% of the time with mcdavid, that alone should disqualify him from comparison with Point. Away from mcdavid, he isn’t on Point’s level.

He's been our best player this year.

Out of town so I didnt get to see anything. Checked the score and they trailed the whole game until the game winner. Nice. Stammer and kuch with zero points. What the heck.
