It will be an exciting weekend game for sure.

LGR!!

I imagine the team will have a last practice today before flying to DC.

We'll see what the lines are for that. Girardi was supposed to skate by himself yesterday, IIRC. But I can't see him playing tomorrow.

Hopefully we'll get good news about Buch (aka him skating again even if it's alone)

First B2B of the season. I'm not worried about the Caps. Yotes will be interesting. I think we'll see Hank tomorrow, and Raanta on Sunday.

Loffen pending.

I'll post it tomorrow, Aufy.

Rain, sleet, or snow?

 

[Ori]

Any recent updates about Buch?

 

[NYRFAN218]

Going to the game. First time at Verizon Center for me.

 

[Irishguy42]

Any recent updates about Buch?

No. Won't know more until next practice, which is today.

 

[we want cup]

Great, another NHLN game that I can't watch without a huge pain in the *** stream search.

You made me think the game was actually tonight for a minute. Got me excited

 

[Kakko]

Going to the game. First time at Verizon Center for me.

Nice arena (even with the annoying airhorn)
Was fine in Rangers gear even for a playoff game

 

[Onion Boy]

DC Rangers fan group will taking over all of section 431.

Vesey-Stepan-Nash
Kreider-ZBad-Zucc
Miller-Hayes-Grabner
Pirri-Jooris-Fast

D stayed the same.

I really like the KZZ line. Overall, the Top 9 still looks good.

 

[Boruto]

McIlrath confirmed #9 on the depth chart after Lindberg.

 

[Cheapshot]

Still mind boggling that AV won't put Pirri in the top 9 especially after all those comments in the preseason about him need to be in a top 9 spot to be productive.

 

[Idlerlee]

Still mind boggling that AV won't put Pirri in the top 9 especially after all those comments in the preseason about him need to be in a top 9 spot to be productive.

imo Grabner has played well and has deserved a slot on the third line. Pirri hasnt done a lot great things especially the past 2 games when given the chance to succeed on the PP in particular.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Ugh. Buch still out. Maybe they want to keep him from the plane/bus ride for one game.

I hope.

That second line could be fun to watch but Washington is a fast physical team so we will have our work cut out for us.

 

[Inferno]

TBH pirri has really sucked so far.

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

Ugh. Buch still out. Maybe they want to keep him from the plane/bus ride for one game.

I hope.

I don't know he could still be hurting. I've had back spasms that took me out of work for like a week straight. Not fun stuff
