The Dude

Better than Roslovic.

But if it's not him getting 4-5-8 minutes, it's going to be Brodzinski. Meaning, who ever it is on that RW, is going to get very little icetime. Much like the RW on the Zibanejad line. All season, who ever is there is only getting 12-14 minutes a night and it was because that slot isn't getting PP minutes or PK. People tried to shit on Wheeler saying he could only be trusted with 12 minutes, but couldn't understand that he was playing in a role/spot that couldn't really get more ice unless they can do special teams. That spot on the roster isn't going to get more ice, unless they PK or play on the PP. Just like the 3rd forward on line 4 isn't going to get more than 8-10. Vesey and Goodrow get a majority of the icetime as PKers and they're in the 12 minutes range.

Fubo stinks now. They have dumped SNY. So the thing that was to mainly be a sports platform for streaming, no longer carries essential networks for sports. But thank god they have music channels and no name sports networks that air fishing and bullshit.

That's a bit rough. He's no worse of a hockey player than any typical 4th liner. He can play center, he can stand infront of the net, he can play hard hitting hockey within the rules. Players like him are guys that can flourish in the playoffs. Guys like Corey Perry have been excellent playoff performers in the post season. Just because he's not a skill guy, doesn't mean he's not good at hockey. He's good at what he's currently doing and he wants to do more. He could be a flash in the pan player who never has this momentum again. Lets ride this momentum and see how far it goes. Let's be real. Between Rempe, Roslovic and Brodzinski, I think the fit for playoff hockey is more in Rempes game than the others. As long as he doesn't play stupid, I go with Rempe until the wheels fall off.

You'd think it would result in penalties. It doesn't seem to matter when it's the Rangers and the playoffs. Retaliation penalties seem to be what refs like to call. So, maybe the plan should be to hit them first. Set the pace. Let them react.

Washington knows how to push the Rangers buttons. Wilson, Dowdy, Ovechkin and Oshie will be walking the line and hitting everyone in sight. Heck, they dressed Mcllrath in their last game (he owned Rempe in the A).. They can and will play ragged and go over the line. If the Rangers can play through that, it's a piece of cake. I think they can . With that said, Zibanejad and Panarin really need to play with their heads up and eyes on the back of their heads, but also take it to them and act like they like it. Don't back down. Don't let old men Oshie and Ovie knock you down a peg.

Trocheck leads the team in ES goals with 8.

Meh. Miller had a 40 point season last year, Kakko and Chytil had their best seasons. Schneider was a rookie and looked absolutely fantastic, earning the job over 2 vets... GG had Kreider at 50 goals the year prior and had Panarin playing great with Ryan Strome that year as well. I think a lot of the anti GG stuff is a bit exaggerated. He lost the room. He always loses the room. He's definitely not youth friendly with forwards, but he rolled with a very young D in Fox, Lindgren, Miller and Schneider. Let's not seriously disparage 2- 100 point seasons as if that can be done with anyone behind the bench. He did good enough for his time here, for how he coaches. Laviolette is just head and shoulders a better coach than GG and it shows in the product on the ice.

Sam's going to go into a presidential alzheimers spell, then snap out of it thinking there was a brawl, when he sees all the players with no jerseys on.

The Donald Trump trophy!!!

MVP Most Valuable Panarin

Sam- "Chabot. Mayyyybe related to Cabot cheese company. Joe, what do you think " Joe- "Shut..... UP".

Batherson. No relation to Showerson.

They're trying to feed Panarin so he can get closer to 50 goals. Gonna happen all night

Pinto spelled different than poorly located gas tank.
