3pm puck drop in Banff tomorrow. Driving up from Kamloops.

 

[Whoot Whoot]

Better be 6-1 NYR

 

[tomobson]

Must win.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

The boys better be hungry tonight.

8-0 win.

Othmann with a goal in his first game? If the Rangers didn't just come off a disappointing lost, I'd say this game had disappoint written all over it but this team does bounce back pretty well. We do have a full AHL line this game but the flip side is Chicago has two of them.

[Synergy27]

Continue the trend of winning after losing like good teams do. Thanks.

 

[Chytilmania]

Could be a good night for a helmet throw.

 

[Machinehead]

Go go super Mothman

 

[McRanger92]

My first game of the season. The return of Roses pizza and Othmann's debut. Must be my lucky day

 

[Killem Dafoe]

I'm loving the schedule this month.

Eager to see the line combos this morning, someone is going to have to switch to the right... right?

Man, we are so thin on that side

I'd go something like this, give Cuylle a shot on the right and if he does well - after Otty's cup of joe try him up top with Mika. That is, if Vesey doesnt stick there - which if given the opportunity (several games) I feel he will put a reverse nelson on the spot. The Wheeler experiment should be over. Hes toast.

Kreider Mika Vesey
Panarin Trocheck Laf
Othmann Brodz Cuylle
Goodrow Bonino Wheeler

Keep the PKers together. Form a new 3rd "Pack" line with a little speed and jam. Sorry but Wheeler shouldnt be getting many minutes. You arent demoting Cuylle.

They need at least one of Kakko and Chytil back

Bedard does the Upper Peninsula, a special regional version of the Michigan, or @Tob closes his account.

If Shesty is playing he will definitely get beat glove side

 

[JimmyG89]

Will be in attendance as well. Was going for Bedard and now we get Othmann too. Super pumped, but Rose Pizza is the biggest win out of it all.

Im pleased Othmann is getting a look but it does nothing to ameliorate our situation at center

Ziggy word of the day?

Dont worry, Artem Anisimov is just getting up to speed

Maybe they will call up Anisimov but he needs to earnhart it.

Dale Earnhart?

We started the New Year on the wettest of wet farts.

Either we dominate this team or we see Trouba throw a hissy fit and throw his helmet on the ice like he did last season against this very same team.
