GDT: Preseason - Devils vs. Rangers - 7PM MSG+

[TheUnseenHand]

I don't dislike what Gryba is doing out there.

I'm wondering what Mikey is doing.

 

[OmNomNom]

that was a real scrub level fight

 

[Cult of Hynes]

he shouldn’t be on the team anyway..

His skills say otherwise.

 

[RSeen]

We can't have Gryba and Greene on this team. Literally players with 0 offense.

 

[Blender]

he shouldn’t be on the team anyway..

If he earns a spot he should be on the team, if he doesn't earn one, he shouldn't. It should be that simple.

That line with Him Studenic and Lappin is getting destroyed every time they touch the ice.

 

[HenriquesJawLine]

Seney is a slippery little mofo

Grbya: "I am sucking. Will someone please hit me in the face, because that's how you keep a job in the NHL circa 1997?"

 

[RangerDoggo]

Gryba is getting every chance to stick with this team and he’s really whiffing on this one.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

That line with Him Studenic and Lappin is getting destroyed every time they touch the ice.

Yeah, they look like a bunch of deer in the headlights.

I would have liked to see Zetterlund out there.

I'm guessing you also said bratt shouldn't be on the team last year. If he keeps it up he makes it imo

 

[bodda]

Thank god we won't be seeing Gryba any more this period. He needs to be cut like yesterday

 

[DerekDevils30]

Those girls in the front row were not impressed with the Gryba fight

 

[VoidCreature]

I like that fight for us more than for the Rangers. Too many guys coasting.

 

[OmNomNom]

yeah that gryba head-to-head hit was totally accidental

 

[Blender]

Gryba trying to earn the Lovejoy spot. Good luck with that.

 

[MartyOwns]

If he earns a spot he should be on the team, if he doesn't earn one, he shouldn't. It should be that simple.

do you want to do what’s best for this year’s devils team? or do what’s best for smith and the organization long term? i like shiny new toys too but it’s not smart

 

[VoidCreature]

Smith promoted, playing with Vatanen.

 

[Cult of Hynes]

Rags are playing kind of dirty.

Why is not playing him where he earns not best for Smith and long term? No one has advocated for keeping him if he isn't capable of playing a regular part of the team.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

Crap ice. I really like Smith though.

Otherwise, boring game.

 

[The 29th Pick]

2 many

 

[Cheddabombs]

Smith promoted, playing with Vatanen.

Because Gryba is off right now

 

[Bleedred]

We can't have Gryba and Greene on this team. Literally players with 0 offense.

Add in that they spend about 65% or more of their ice time being trapped in the defensive zone because they can't get out of it. They're a bunch of defensemen that Lou loves (current Greene, younger Greene was really good) to have around. As evidenced by his signing of Luca Sbisa today and going into the 10-11 season with all three of Salvador, White and Volchenkov on the roster. Which didn't happen in the regular season because Salvador missed the entirety of it.

 

[MauDevils]

Not sure if the players are rusty or if the ice is just pure dogshit.

If his skills warrent a look in the nhl you do it, if not they wont and send him down. They dont promote players just to promote them bc it looks good or for fans approval.
