Post-Game Talk: Rangers @ Islanders | 1/16/20

[Jaromir Jagr]

Love the Islanders blaming their entire loss on the penalty at the end. Did they forget the rest of the game?

1. Fox phantom penalty on Barzal losing his edge.
2. Panarin phantom dive that resulted in a 4 on 4 in which they tied the game.
3. Still not convinced on that Kreider call where he was arguably pushed into the goaltender.

Regardless, we were fighting the refs right up until the last minute. That Panarin call nearly cost us the game. And the Fox one sapped momentum when we were dominating.

f***ing losers.


Edit - Forgot to include the missed call on the blatant knee on knee by Boychuk which almost took Kreider out of the game.

 

[Crease]

I thought Panarin went down too easy, and Kreider absolutely needs to avoid Varlamov there--you saw that developing at the hash marks. I'm okay with those calls.

I thought the Fox call was terrible and they missed a knee on Kreider. The Brassard call was weak too, and might have been a make-up for missing the Kreider knee.

 

[Gardner McKay]

He wasn't rewarded on the stat sheet, but Chytil was an absolute machine last night.

10000000% agree. He kept putting pressure on the Islanders defense by forechecking.

I thought Chytil had one of his best games of the season, Lindgren was very good too last night in my opinion. blocked a bunch of shots as did the whole team. wins like this can start a winning streak.

any blame about the late penalty should be directed at brassard...horrible penalty to take but it was a blatant penalty

 

[rangers1314]

Sorry if it was discussed and I missed it, but did DQ get asked about/address the little dust up he and Tony had on the bench?

 

[Leetch3]

I fully support and agree with Quinn's decision to shelter Fox to not ask him to do too much as a rookie...but I really hope that in the second half of the season he starts getting challenged more defensively and some exposure on the pk. the kid is just so smart. i have no doubt that the kid will be good at both ends and on the pk given some time and experience.

yes it has. they were upset at the ref not each other.

.

Kreider was pushed into him there was nowhere he can go so you are wrong. The Panarin one also was fugazy. Embellishments needs to be clear and that wasn’t close since he was clearly pushed

Pidto does the Knicks games now, no?

If that's the case, it sucks. No more Pidto MSG 150 and "full-service hockey operation".

 

[Captain Lindy]

The Isles postgame thread was VOMIT. Ripping Fox for choosing NY and how if it wasn't for NYC the NYR wouldn't have Panarin or Fox. Crying about the refs, saying the Zibanejad goal wasn't conclusive enough. They wanted "Ross the Plug" to target Lindgren and DeAngelo. Oh, and one guy said "what's with these shi**y goalies playing well against us"? HAHAHAHA. You know they're hurting.

How about Vally in our postgame saying he "Feels bad for the Islanders because Panarin didn't sign there." OH PLEASE! Panarin only politely listened to their offer to show good manners but WAS NEVER CONSIDERING GOING TO THAT JOKE OF AN ORGANIZATION. He turned down more money and said plainly beforehand that he wanted to play in A BIG CITY! Please stop it, Islander fans, with the pity party of not signing Panarin. You never had a chance in the first place.

**OFF SOAP BOX**

 

[Captain Lindy]

Are we up on any power rankings yet? Just curious.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

ADA is on pace for over 20 goals this season. Yes, please.

 

[Good Intentions]

I still have Sam’s call on the DeAngelo goal on repeat in my head...OH BABY LETS GOOO!!!!!

 

[Kaapo Cabana]

That was probably the most satisfying win we have had in 2+ years.

 

[JimmyG89]

A very underrated aspect of DeAngelo's goal was Fast hustling into the play after that long penalty kill he was out there for AND the shot that he blocked that clearly stung. Made it a 2 on 1 instead of a 1 on 1.

 

[Fugazy]

Kreider was pushed into him there was nowhere he can go so you are wrong. The Panarin one also was fugazy. Embellishments needs to be clear and that wasn’t close since he was clearly pushed

Did someone say my name?

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Chytil and Kakko are great together.

I’d like to see someone else on that LW instead of Howden, maybe Lemieux when he’s back?

Kakko has shifts where he completely dominates from the circles down and he’s only 18. He just needs to improve his endurance and he’s going to start cashing in big time. Kid is only 18 and you can tell he’s just right there.

 

[rangersfansince08]

He wasn't rewarded on the stat sheet, but Chytil was an absolute machine last night.

lol we say this after every game. I agree but I really want to see points coming soon. I would try Panarin-Chytil-Kakko to see if Chytil and Kakko can raise their game playing with Panarin.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

 

[MetalJaws]

Howden kills the Offense on the 3rd line with Chytil and Kakko. Lemieux will be a much better fit. Can't wait for that. Howden right now is a dump and chase 4th liner with no offensive upside. Lemieux can make plays and cash in. When healthy, Quinn should staple Howden to 4th line C and PK.

He made so many underrated plays the last two games. you need guys like Fast against teams who try to be physical and defensive style. He gets in the zone and gets deep trying to take dmen off the puck. In his own zone he's blocking shots and doing a good job on the pk.

The kid line has played better but I agree Howden just doesn't have the offensive/Stick ability to play with Chytil and Kakko. Lemieux should be a better fit

Howden is what I was worried Andersson would become. Those were the days...
