Call up Kravtsov now with Kreider out

 

[Shesterkybomb]

He was never in position to stop Hayes nor should he be. Not his side of the ice.

If he stayed on his feet he would have been more useful. If Trouba did it he would be crucified in here.

 

[Doctyl]

Call up Kravtsov now with Kreider out

Or like just play Gauthier more

 

[Machinehead]

If he stayed on his feet he would have been more useful.

No he wouldn't have. The puck moves faster than he does.

 

[RangersFan1994]

Who gets called up for Kreider being out, Kravtsov, Lettieri??

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Your standards are absurdly high. They have been winning non-stop for weeks now. It is expected that there would be a game like this eventually. And the fact that it is occurring on a back to back, after getting in at 3AM, without their #1 goalie and without one of thier best forwards is not shocking whatsoever.

I understand but this is a game that is huge for their playoff hopes. Not some game in December.

 

[Fitzy]

Lemmy has zero possession skill. I can't remember the last time the puck was on his stick for more than a split second

Yeah I'm thinking his offensive upside is going to be severely limited as a consequence.

But that will also keep his price down as a 4th liner.

 

[Machinehead]

Or like just play Gauthier more

Inb4 more Lemieux.

 

[Doctyl]

Inb4 more Lemieux.

Still better than Howden

 

[Machinehead]

lol Kakko wtf was that

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Or like just play Gauthier more

Yeah considering they acquired him and talked about him being similar to Kreider they should give him some run with some better players than Howden and Lemieux.

 

[RangersFan1994]

Or like just play Gauthier more

He would play more regardless in my opinion.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

No he wouldn't have. The puck moves faster than he does.

Keep the blinders on...it was a dumb play all together...that's not how anyone teaches you to play that.

 

[will1066]

Frustrating to see Kakko being angled out constantly

 

[aufheben]

Dude they were playing 24 hours ago in another freaking country and are missing one of their best players.

 

[Ghost of jas]

Dude they were playing 24 hours ago in another freaking country and are missing one of their best players.

Actually, two of their best players.

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

Losing on Friday night does suck. When I wake up late tomorrow I’ll think back on the game and it’s been a bit of a downer.

 

[RangersFan1994]

Or like just play Gauthier more

Or play Gauthier over Lemieux on the powerplay would he a start.

 

[Machinehead]

Keep the blinders on...it was a dumb play all together...that's not how anyone teaches you to play that.

I'm not a fan of leaving your feet but Zibanejad's man scored and Zibanejad wasn't even looking at him.

Nobody will ever criticize Zibanejad, though. Talk about blinders being on.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Games like this shouldn't happen when this is a huge game in a playoff push. We're not going to win every game, just be f***ing competitive.

Dude they look exhausted and are playing a red hot and rested team who is home. They have played a lot of hockey lately and a lot of it on the road. This shit happens to every team. I'm giving them a pass tonight. I'm thinking Sunday will be a lot different. My biggest concern is the Kreider injury.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Actually, two of their best players.

Three, don’t forget about Gregory Mckeggory

 

[Doctyl]

Leave Zib alone

just because we traded Brass for him, doesn’t mean you have to be so mean

 

[Fitzy]

Anyone discussing playoffs- I think Columbus was always the more realistic scenario. Gaining 4 points would have been nice but I think if there's a path, it's ending up in that 8 spot beating out Carolina and CBJ.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Let’s see some rough stuff at least
I wanna see Lemieux beat up that bumbling pothead bozo who bashes NY even though he wishes he was still there

 

[NYRangers0723]

Dude they were playing 24 hours ago in another freaking country and are missing one of their best players.

Exactly. The Flyers are well rested too. Look losing CK is a huge loss but I’m not giving up on this team especially with Columbus and Carolina both struggling and dealing with injuries
