GDT [RS] (#31) Rangers vs. Edmonton Oilers — It's a Trap (Game)!
Long live the King replied to Phil's topic in New York Rangers
You can easily jump from game to game... -
Meh. He gets 70+% DZ starts. Still xGA is 11, but only had 6 scored. And he's been on the ice for 5 GF. With Cuylle and Kakko/Brodzinski his line generates more shots than the opponent.
-
-
Yes. Bonino is good on draws. He's 40th in the league in FO%. He's 16th in PKFO%. Can't have too many guys that can win draws. Only reason he doesn't take more draws is Trocheck is so good. Pitlick is the dead weight.
-
Yea. Apparently they call him Trocho Cinco
-
I agree they need better 3c, but Bonino isn't coming out of the line up. He wins draws and he's on of the top penalty killers. Pitlick is the odd man out. Trocheck has been real good, but I still like his game on a more Fiesta grinding line like the 3rd. So with that Lindholm for the 2nd line is my first choice. Monahan would be my 2nd choice.
-
You never know. They've got a long way to go to get in the playoffs. With the down year they could look to move him before the 35+ contract kicks in.

I'm not picking out the shutouts and focusing on the 5 goal game. See above. Shesty's had 2 stinkers in a row. Prior to that his HDSV% was .821 on the season. There's a lot of recency bias because of the OTT and WSH games. During the 10 starts prior to those 2 stinkers (10/24 to 12/2), Igor was 8-2 with a .926 SV%. His HDSV% was .864. Quick had 6 starts during that time with a HDSV% of .818.
-
That's not what I mean. Yes he earned them. My argument is against the notion that Quick has been a million times better. Sample size matters a lot here in terms of overall SV%. Quick has 4 lights-out starts. Those go a long way to boosting the overall SV%. He stopped 55 of the first 57 shots he faced on the season. Going into last night he was 5-0-1 with a .898 SV% in the previous 6 starts. If not for the goal support he's gotten, he could just as easily be 5-3-1 on the season and this thread is never even started.
-
If you don't care then why post his SV%? Shesty was on an 8-2 stretch with a .926 SV% before the team played 2 shit games front of him.
-
Quick's SV% is below .900 in 5 of 9 starts. He was lucky to get goal support to win those games. He happened to get 2 shutouts to boost his overall SV%.
-
Yes, Igor can and needs to play better. Yes, Quick has played well. No, there isn't a goalie controversy.
-
Quick has 9 starts. Gave up 3 goals twice, 4 goals twice, and 5 goals once. He's simply lucky to get goal support in those games where Shesty hasn't.

Injury Report Chytil Suffers Another Concussion; Placed on LTIR

At this point I'd try... Cuylle - Zib - Vesey Panarin - Goodrow - Laf Kreider - Trocheck - Brodzinski Pitlick - Bonino - Wheeler Then find a RW to bump Vesey to the 3rd line. -

Well yea teams don't generally store top 6 players in the AHL. 2 long term injuries in the top of your forward group are gonna hurt any team. Drury needs to work the phones. -

Need a C and RW. Can't wait for Chytil and Kakko. Gonna be rough having Nash, JBrod, Wheeler, and Pitlick all in the lineup. -
Drury has to figure something out. Can't keep going with Pitlick, JBrod, Nash, and Wheeler all in the lineup. Goodrow-Bonino-Vesey should be the 4th line. Gotta find answers for the gaps in the top 9. Can't sit around waiting for Chytil and Kakko to come back.

Laf was a LW too. Getting a young RW blocks Perreault weather he's 1, 2, or 3 years away. There is no fill in long term for Miller. Gus is a rental. So you're making a trade that blocks your best prospects and have nothing on D to replace Miller. A rental RW fills a need right now. You trade Miller and your D is trash the next time Lindgren breaks something so you're renting a D now anyway. Just rent the RW and don't bring in a long term road block for your best prospects. -

The issue is there's no one to replace Miller. A long term RW blocks Othmann and Perreault. The hole that needs a long term fix is 3C. Miller is an overpayment for a 3C. The play is rentals again for this year's run. -
