They can't come out the way they did in Montreal and expect to win this game.

I think the "spoiler" aspect is a bit overblown on the Rags' part, but I do think their speed and skill in recent call-ups could catch us off-guard. It should be a very good game.

Rags indeed still have speed up and down their lineup and for the most part, they do still compete. Kind of worried about Lundqvist being on a roll as he stopped 40-41 vs Carolina. If he's his old self it won't matter how well we play.

There are so many good Gordon Ramsay gifs if things go badly. Let's just hope we don't need to use all of them tonight.

 

[The Wumpus]

AV gonna AV.

Also, who the hell is Neal Pionk?

A college UFA from Minn-Duluth. Decent player from what I understand.

Yeah but I haven't posted a GDT in 2 years now so I gotta do something at least loool

 

[Emperoreddy]

Brakes are out on the hype train now.

Let’s go boys.

This implies the hype train has brakes, which it never did.

Severson still on the bench

 

[EliasFTW]

I've been meaning to ask, what the hell are Nico and Hall doing in that first gif?

It's the begining of the end. Nico for Malkin in 2 years

lovejoy still in over severson? jesus christ. ive steered clear of harping on lineup decisions but that is just flat out pitiful. just shouldn't happen, especially now. i usually try to think of justifiable reasons and give the benefit of the doubt, but there arent any for this nonsense.

It's so stupid. Good lord Hynes. Now is not the time to play these games. I get sending him a message with one game, but this is awful. He's critical to our offense. We were terrible last game when Lovejoy was on the ice.

I’m not a huge Lovejoy fan but let’s face it, the vet who doesn’t make stupid mistakes is going to play over the kid who does in a big spot. Sevs pretty much earned a multiple game benching or at best demotion to the third pairing, he wasn’t just bad for one or two games - he’s been bad for a string of then.

The game Lovejoy just had was anemic. We were pinned in the dzone every time he was out there and created no offense at all. This move does not increase our chances of winning.

Would love to see Grabner pot a few against his old team tonight. All we have to do is take care of business. Focus on the Rags, get at least one point (but love to see us get both), and keep the pressure on the Panthers. Florida's next 4 games are against Nashville tonight, Buffalo, and two against Boston. That's a tough schedule for them.

Crosschecking a Canadiens forward in the face, while already down a man, in a game in which you're fighting for your playoff lives isn't a stupid mistake?

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

I could see leaving Lovejoy in if he actually had a good game, but he was awful. Easily our worst player last game.

Looks like Gibbons will be back in for Bratt.

I can't see tweets for some reason right now, apologize if this was already posted.

It's a problem with uBlock Origin. Disable its blocking of github.io and you'll get tweets again.

Let's get those crucial 2 points boys!! LGD!!

I could totally understand if Lovejoy was that vet who didn't make stupid mistakes but unfortunately he make his fair share without contributing anything to the offensive side.

With that said, i'm totally fine with Severson being out of the game and resting.

I f***ing love Gordon Ramsey memes. Amazing GDT
