ITT everyone acting like we’re starting October Georgiev tonight when in reality he’s been lights out for 2 months now and probably wouldn’t be the reason we’d lose this game.

Canes with their potent offense will cause a lot of side-to-side movement stress on the goalie and we know Gallant ain't interested in Shesty being out long term with his groin.

I think it could go either way. It depends on philosophy and/or preferred strategy with respect to accruing points in the regular season. Shesterkin against the Coyotes sort of removes the possibility of a clunker from your goalie losing a game that should be an easy two points. We know Georgiev can have clunkers, so set yourself up for what should be as close as you can get to a guaranteed two points with a full lineup.
Whatever happens in Carolina happens. It’s a tough one to win regardless.

when fans demand the coaching staff think like fans....
this is just 1 game of 82
NYR are in a stretch of 6 games in ~9 days
truly good teams carry 2 goalies they use,
if they can't win this game in front of Georgie, maybe they're not as good as their record
one thing to love about Turk is he has no time for second guessers in the press room, the stands or the metaverse

I think everyone agrees that Igor and Xandar should split the two games today and tomorrow. Just some questions about which one where.

This is a classic psychological move. Make Georgiev confront the worst thing in his professional career.

I'm don't dislike the move because Georgie has been bad recently, he has been great. I dislike playing the backup in a measuring stick game against a likely playoff matchup. We should go guns blazing all in tonight. Arizona should be dealt with routine and the backup.

I honestly wonder if Georgie specifically asked to play this game. My gut says that is probably the case. Still, I'd feel a whole lot better about tonight with Igor in net.
Hopefully Geo has enough sense that if Tony skates past the crease, he chops him in the back of his friggin' neck.You already know Tony was salivating when he heard that Georgiev’s the starter
I guess? It’s January, the only thing that’d be measured tonight by dressing the absolute best lineup is dicks.

PoolParty has what 10 goals playing with McD? He would pick up three more playing with us; no thanks.

Feeling it
Over the past couple of years I've always felt that as the Rangers rebuild grew stronger and stronger, the Canes would always be the team to knock them out.
Then we saw them get bitch slapped by them in the play in tourney. Here they are again, first matchup of the season. Everyone is looking to knock down the Rangers. Paper tiger they say.
However, the Rangers have great numbers against them historically and I think there is a different type of makeup to the Rangers right now.
Eager to see how this one will play out, but it's a little odd that it's not Igor tonight. The two top defenses in the game go against one another and you dont ride your best G? Curious decision, as well as taking Chytil off of Breads line. Maybe GG is trying to challenge Georgie
Either way LGR
