Vs the isles we should have things spread out in the lineup to see if we can get some skill vs their bottom 6 imo. I don't think Blackwell in the top 6 is a good idea vs this team.

 

[Leonardo87]

Playoff hopes are dwindling it’s getting to the point just want to see the kids do well and get on the scoresheet.

 

[EdJovanovski]

3.8 million - 0 NYR

Kravtsov (3.7 million)
Wahlstrom own goals (0.1 million)

Expecting a lot of rage from fans tonight when Igor is not there to bail the team out. Of course, hoping Georgjiev has a good game against the Islanders. If there is one team he can do it against, it's them.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Hopefully we get the good version of the Rangers tonight. It's a coin flip.

 

[The New Russian Five]

Which rangers team will show? Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde?

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

It sucks when the Rangers aren’t winning. Sucks even more when the Islanders are. We will either score 6 goals tonight or get shut out. Our young team is bipolar.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Shutout loss written all over it

Georgiev deserves a chance to work back in. He's had some seriously bad games this year, but he's still a better overall goaltender than Kincaid. Hopefully, the 3 weeks he's been sitting has given him a reset and he'll look like the guy we saw the last 2 years.

 

[RickChartraw]

Now would be a good time for Kreider..... bring your green hat.

 

[will1066]

Expect big time games from Dave Scatchard, Bill Muckalt, and Bill Berg.

What's our magic number for playoff elimination?

 

[MrAlmost]

Think they will spell Kravs' name right tonight?

 

[EdJovanovski]

Really hope Kravtsov scores his first NHL goal tonight while Wahlstrom is a healthy scratch
There is a bit of a beef there, as Wahlstrom said the Rangers “made a mistake” and will regret drafting Kravtsov over Wahlstrom. Then right before the Russia vs USA game at the WJC’s Kravtsov said he doesn’t know why Wahlstrom is so arrogant

Because he scores too many goals?

 

[Whoot Whoot]

Lets hit the open nets tonight

I hope they both play and it gets chippy. I don’t want a boring Friday night game.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

I expect a boring frustrating game. This has a 18 save shut out written all over it.

 

[BBKers]

This game has 8-6 written all over it

 

[Boris Zubov]

I'm fully expecting a shutout in either direction.. winner to be determined on which Georgiev shows up.

The Islanders stifling D is usually not a good thing for a young team, especially if the Isles score first. They strangle when they have the lead, usually. Effective, but I find it boring.

Then again, if the Rangers could play that way at that level, I'd love it.

So, you're betting over if the over/under comes up 13.

The over/under is 6. Every game, tonight is 6 or 5.5.

Forced to pick, I'd go under, but I wouldn't bet it.
