Post-Game Talk: Jacket

Great test Thursday night, looking forward to it, hopefully Kreider is good to go.

hope he is too. Would it be so bad to call someone up from Hartford (not Cullye or Carpenter) to replace Blais?

 

[McRanger92]

Said it in the RBT but I liked Gavrikov’s game. I’d definitely take him here for the right price

Kind of a quiet PGT….

Goes to show how many posters are against us winning.

Can someone tell me why Mika shouldn’t be nominated for Selke? His defense has been amazing and he’s on pace for almost 40 goals again

If he plays the second half of the year the way he played the first half and doesn't get nominated there is something rotten in the state of Denmark

 

[will1066]

Low-event win other than the Chytil-Kravtsov connection and the PP2 goal.

And Gavrikov getting shot by Mika.

Mika was unreal all over the ice. Kakko was making things happen. Krav - Chytil - Goodrow looked good for the most part, Krav was playing very confident. Halak looking capable again

CBJ is awful but you gotta beat these teams and they did convincingly. I’ll take it,

I knew that didn't sound right.

 

[RagFinMet]

Mika was the best player out there
Laffy sux
Kk very good
KravCG very good
PTV. Yuk..so much better with Kreider
When ur dman gets a hug from the goalie at the end he earns my vote

 

[huerter]

Cole Sillinger health bomb? What kind of operation is JD, I mean Sather, running over there?

 

[will1066]

Puckluck taking the night off after a win. Defending the administration is tiring.

I kid. I kid.

 

[Hire Sather]

Good win. Not a good night on the scoreboard which matters just as much.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

He'd fit well but sadly I think he will cost too much. We may pay a tax too being in division and JD being in charge over there.

CBJ wants a first+ and while they may not get that, I'd bet someone pays more than I'd hope Drury is going to be willing to part with.

 

[TominNC]

Just to be clear from the GDT,

I liked the Kravtsov I saw tonight, but not in a “like” way like Ed likes him.

 

[Rangers in 7]

4th line got caved in, Harpur is ass

I thought ALL the kids played well and that includes laf

Panarin is becoming a problem. Guy misses the net so damn much and is coasting out there. People out here saying kreider coming back solves the PP. idk what team you’ve been watching but before he got hurt the PP was 15th in the league. Kreider isn’t going to magically save it. And laf isn’t the problem either. Trocheck (who I think has been great) missed a great chance from a pass from laf that he should have burried

Overall 2 and a half great periods after a rough one last night.

Yea yea just a one night stand, give it a couple months and you'll be proclaiming your love for him from the rooftops

Mika is such a good all around player when he's moving his feet and playing with pace. I still think Zibanejad coming down the ice with a full head of steam is in that next tier below McDavid (who is on a tier of his own) for scariest player coming down the ice. He honestly gives me early 2010 Malkin vibes when he's coming down the ice with speed.

That being said, I mentioned it in the GDT that Im not sure what's up with him skill wise but he's bobbly and fumbling a crazy amount of pucks. @DanielBrassard astutely noted that this is something he's struggled with frequently with pucks in tight to his body and that is definitely true and a good call, I was still noticing it on pucks out further from him body as well as him moving with the puck and trying to stickhandle and fumbling it. Like I feel like the past few games he's struggled with keeping pucks clean for some reason, regardless of what rink he's on or ice conditions it always looks like he's playing on bad ice. He's such a good player that it's very frustrating when stuff like that happens because he's always doing so many good things.

 

[hackeyman]

I've been pretty hard on him all year so I better say Kravy really impressed me tonight.

At the start of the season, I would have said that if Turk could turn Kravy into a bonfide quality NHL player it would take a greater miracle than guiding an expansion team to the Stanley Cup Finals. We just might be seeing a miracle in the making. Stay tuned.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Btw Kravtsov led the team with 5 shots on goal tonight.

Hmm I hadn’t noticed that but I’ll look for it more. Wonder what that’s about.

If I had a nickel for every time a player sets up another player for an amazing play and doesn't bury it, I'd be rich. Laf isn't the only player that makes good plays, but he's certainly the least of all them. That's for sure.

 

[hackeyman]

He was very good tonight. I like him much better on that 3rd line.
