Rongos can't be eliminated tonight, so there's that.

Flip Smith and Jones on the projected pairings.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Lets see how we do with the lines that HF would probably collectively agree on for once

There is some unity finally going on now lol.

Those lines are real?

JG Pageau is a milk drinker.

Congrats to Morgan Barron on his NHL debut. I believe that's the third recent NYR 6th round pick (Fast, Hagelin) to see NHL action.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Those lines are real?

Yes

 

[Leonardo87]

Those lines are real?

Yes, I edited the updated lines. I mean until Quinn changes them mid- Game of course lol.

 

[duhmetreE]

Yes

Actually like all 4 lines

Anticipating the 4th line without Kravtsov on it... is a win

 

[Fitzy]

I don’t think they should rush Trouba back in from a concussion.

Will be interesting to see who kills penalties with both Tarmo and Jones in the lineup. They’ll be sheltered but if one of the other four d men take a penalty someone will have to go in

 

[WojtekWolski86]

All the goals tonight will be from the kids. Mark my words.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Just don’t get shut out

[Rongomania]

Nobody left to payback the Isles for concussing 30% of our D.

Not much of a stretch considering we only have 1 goal against them in the last 2 games.

 

[Captain Lindy]

Georgiev tonight? I swear I'd like to smack the living s*** out of Quinn sometimes. If he used him Thursday we might have some momentum going into tonight's game. Going with his number one last game did not give us the best chance of winning but he admits the mistake tonight. F*** him.

Sorry, just venting.

If he had played Georgiev the other night, and we lost, people would blame him for that. It really doesn't make much difference given that we failed to score any goals.

Good point but Georgiev is magic vs the Islanders.

 

[RangersFan1994]

How about fight off the faceoff to try to get momentum early. Good teams do this. Since they are always flat as of late

 

[LokiDog]

A rookie and a sophomore in net. Four rookies and a sophomore on D. Rookies on lines 1 & 2, sophomore on line 3 (& journeyman with less than 1 full year of experience), two rookies on line 4.

Nine rookies, three sophomores, Chytil as a third year guy, Blackwell and Rooney, who had combined for less than 125 NHL games before this season. Out of 20 dressed players, we have about five in the lineup with over 180 games of NHL experience.

The youth movement

How about WIN a faceoff to get momentum early?

 

[Machinehead]

Do we have to?
