Post-Game Talk: #25 - 11/30/19 | RANGERS @ devils

[CasusBelli]

Lmaoo two points out of a playoff spit, we can now roll 4 lines and im happy howden is now 4c, makes the team so much better. Switch out haley for nieves and bam, i think we can make it. Offensively, e are turning into quite a juggernaut, ironic consodering the previous rangers.

And what has changed? No Lias and no Staal? Zib is back, of course, but we were already trending upward before his return.

 

[mike14]

Simmonds and Subban are shells of their former selves.

Was completely expected for Simmonds (no idea how anyone allowed that contract) but I honestly thought Subban would still have good years left him. Barely noticed him on the ice tonight and he doesn't look dangerous at all.

 

[NYRangers16]

Voted Zib, Foxy, and KK(as a screw you to the refs). HM: Georgie

 

[SA16]

3:45 for Haley

What the hell is the point of playing 12 forwards when you’re automatically handicapping yourself?

I just don’t get it

Why is this a bad thing? 3:45 for Haley means more ice time for Panarin, Kreider, and the other wings. Why would you want him to play 10 mins?

 

[Doctyl]

Imagine this team without Bread. That signing was huge for the culture alone. I’m glad the youngest roster in the league has guys like him and Hank to play with. Kakko winning instead of playing in a cesspool makes me happy

 

[Ghost of jas]

Yep. All contenders need at least three quality forwards.

Crosby, Malkin, Kessel
OV, Backstrom, Kuznetsov
Kane, Toews, Hossa
Yzerman, Fedorov, Shanahan
Sakic, Forsberg, Hejduk
Bergeron, Marchand, Krejci

... you get the idea

Panarin, Mika, Kakko, Chytil...we're good.

 

[CasusBelli]

Panarin, Mika, Kakko, Chytil...we're good.

In a few years, yes.

 

[Chaels Arms]

That has to be one of the all time worst single game power play performances ever right? It's one thing to not score in almost one entire period on the man advantage but to give up two shorties in that time also?

 

[Ghost of jas]

I'm already counting him.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

I’d rather have 4 rolling good lines than automatically playing with 11 forwards because Quinn needs a face puncher

 

[Cag29]

I wonder where this team if Zibby is healthy for the last month. So much to like about this team. I need one more high end forward.

Byfield?

 

[NoQuitInNewMexico]

Just realized the Devils would be a top destination for George or Igor if they weren't the Devils. It's not gonna happen though, big difference with renting out a player (Grabner) and trading someone a goalie you might have to see for 10 years.

 

[Ghost of jas]

I rather have Lettieri

Was Herpes not an option?

 

[Kupo]

I'm already counting him.

You counting Chytil and Kakko too? As well as Panarin and Zbad?

 

[Doctyl]

He’s potentially the biggest question mark in this whole rebuild. If he pans out he’s going to be so important for us

 

[Ghost of jas]

You counting Chytil and Kakko too? As well as Panarin and Zbad?

Yup

 

[Quinnisinoverhishead]

1 - Trouba
2 - Georgiev
3- Lindgren
Loved the entire team. What a beautiful game!

 

[will1066]

Devils fans thanking us for beating them means the loss was so comically horrible that it's nearly incomprehensible. Similar to getting punched in the face so hard that you start reciting Bible verses.

Lmao

Our PP yesterday is also a contender

 

[Kupo]

Yup

Shoot for the stars I guess.

 

[mrhockey193195]

One more thing - Chytil with another quiet, NHL-caliber performance. I'm curious what his fancy stats are for today, but just from the eye test I thought he was solid away from the puck. I saw multiple plays where he seamlessly covered one of our pinching Ds, and where he busted his ass on the back check. He continues to show a maturity at this level that our other forward prospects have yet to develop.

 

[MrPodz]

And what has changed? No Lias and no Staal? Zib is back, of course, but we were already trending upward before his return.

We mightve been trending, but missing zib really hurt... strome doesnt have that impact but he helps make the second line great. I think honestly, if not this year then next year we will make it past the first. Our d needs more experience, but if u look at it: fox is amazing, trouba found his game, skjei trending up, lindgren is amazing, and hajek should prob spend time in the a honestly

 

[duhmetreE]

I hate to be negative in a victory but that Powerplay is bad. Who thought it was a good idea to put Panarin on his off wing?

----------------Kreider---------------
----------------------------------------
----------------- Zibs ----------------
Panarin ------------------- Kakko
------------ Fox/ADA ----------

Please and thank you

Do other teams struggle with shooting the puck? As in actually shooting the puck instead of passing it... My biggest gripe with Panarin so far.

I think it's a 'coaching' issue because with the 4 on 4... everyone was flying around and moving. 5v4 is telegraphed and would be the equivalent to a Ruff led PP

Chytil will be American soon

They didn't shoot on the 4v4 either.
