GDT: Rangers @ Brooklyners - 2/15/18 - 7pm ET

[Lion Hound]

That would undoubtedly be a distinct kicking motion

 

[howztheglass]

Thinking no goal

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Sam and joe so bad at pretending this could count

 

[Maliks PlusMinus]

Tries to kick it to the stick lololol

 

[member 116805]

No goal

 

[Holocene]

Lol come on DD...

 

[Ail]

Whew close one.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Not going to count.

 

[Mandar]

Can't understand why this team constantly passes up opportunities for high percentage shots in the middle of the ice....just to go into the corners and take bad angle shots. Especially since they never go to the front of the net

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Imagine if this is the season Sam goes out on.

 

[ZiGOODejad]

ok no goal get this over with so we can end this crap game

 

[Charlie Conway]

And then they go back to talking up this line... Tough time to be an optimistic commentator.

 

[EdJovanovski]

YAHOOOO!!!!!!!!

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Never understood the logic behind the kicking rule tbh

 

[Fitzy]

Never understood the logic behind the kicking rule tbh

Safety thing I think. Dont want people kicking up around guys sprawling in the crease. Same as high sticking rule.

 

[Kovalev27]

Vesey Andersson Fast next year as a fourth line would be fun to watch

Grabner Hayes Miller as a third line if they can bring grabs back and they should

Kreider Zibanejad buchnevich top line

Problem is your 2nd line. You’ve got maybe chytil and no one else. You’d hope zucc is moved by then.

 

[Abooch68]

To prevent players from using their skate as a weapon.

Ahhh true sometime I forget they have razor blade bolted on their feet

 

[NCRanger]

I get the rule with intent to score. DD wasn’t trying to score there, just trying to settle the puck.

 

[will1066]

The kids getting NHL experience is fine with me.

Roll on, tank.

 

[Mr Clutch]

Serious question. Should it be kicking motion rule be changed? I for one would like to see it changed I think, I mean players use their skates constantly throughout games to stop the puck or control the puck, why not be able to kick it in?

And if it was allowed I doubt we would see many instances of it. These guys are just so talented with their sticks that if they get an opportunity to put a stick on it they are always gonna do that instead of kicking

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Not only do we suck but we’re having horrible luck tonight on both ends.


It’s pretty bad that the Islanders are by far the worst defensive team in the league and we’re about to go two straight games against them without an even strength goal.

I doubt chytil walks in at 2C. So make that 3rd line your second and put those 4th line wingers on the 3rd with chytil and add two random AHL/ufa scrubs to fill out the 4th

I wouldn't be opposed to Nash coming in for about 3.5 x 3 yrs then moving hayes to the center the 2nd line....maybe Chytil on his wing with Nieves centering the 4th line and Andersson moving to the 3rd line

Have to expect an NHL ready player coming in at the TDL or in the offseason as well
