  1. More like "whew"! LOL Great news! He can use a little rest before we kick it in the playoffs! The WARRIOR lives!!
  2. NO way...Trade him as a "throw in"! Fox too...he sucks...and also Pana.....nevermind...I'm not going there!!! That thread is too long already!! LOL Jones: The heir apparent for Gus in 2024-2025
  3. Just say NO to Atlanta. We've been there and done it...TWICE....Please, No!
  4. I still consider Drury a relatively "new" GM, and I think there's a learning curve to it. He's been saddled with some tough contracts to deal with and a flat cap, which obviously ties his hands on a lot of movement. However, his assessment of what this team needed seems to me like he's been in constant lock-step with Laviolette. I didn't get that same feeling with Gallant. I'm not beating Gallant over the head here, but it felt like there was no "type" player the last 2 seasons. Vatrano and Copp were great fits and also good players. So that fit very well. Kane and Tarasenko were also good players but the chemistry wasn't there. Wennberg fits that 3rd line seemingly like a glove, because he's a high IQ player with very good skating ability, which makes us faster and smarter on that line up the middle, where the game pretty much flows. Not to mention he's a better than average face off man. Possession is always a good thing! Roslovic is looking to be the steal of the deadline right now. Not only does he mesh well with Zibby, but he's seemingly put a spur in the ass of Kreider, where I now see Kreider much more involved in the forecheck, making plays, getting in more on the forecheck, and actually attempting One-timers??? Roslovic is an excellent skater and has great speed to go along with being a very heady player. Something we hadn't had on that line since I can remember. All 4 lines right now seem to be going in the direction I think Laviolette had envisioned from training camp. In a home game, it's going to be a much bigger advantage for us because Laviolette can get the exact matchups he wants. So home ice advantage this year is going to be a lot more important for us than the past few seasons. Jesus, that's the most I think I ever typed since GDT threads!!
  5. Yup! Great shit!! Flyers, as much as I can't stand them always seem to do great stuff for their players!
  6. Ah me lads, the luck of the Irish was with us today! Well, maybe not for Lindy. I didn't think it was a dirty play, I just think he fell awkwardly and bent that fucker back. It looked very similar to Kakko's injury, but let's hope for the best! ...and here are the Top 10 nominees for today's “Ozzy Quote of the GDT”, sponsored by green Gatorade, the official winning drink of The Breadman! Keep shooting pucks, boys!! Some ripping snipes today by Zibby and Laff, topped off by Kakko, who better do that shit more often! and the winning quote for tonight’s GDT goes to @knedragon!!! I may hate watching games on TNT, but Pang is a pisser! That Leprechaun costume was him to a "T"! Panarin has got to be a goofball...but damn, is he having a "year"! Also props to Jackie Redmond who looks unbelievably hot as ever! Update: Rempe is now on the loose, and considered "at LARGE, and dangerous"!
  7. Hey Lads!! Nice touch on the Game Day post @Drew a Penalty Drew!!!! All those Irishmen in our lineup should mean all those shots off the post go in today!!! Trivia is "Fuck off" because we're on TNT. Another game with the sound off!
  8. So how many posts did we hit yesterday?? I say 4 and also one for @Pete's boner makes 5! Always great to get a win against these peckerheads! The schedule is rough of late and anytime we can get a win on the road, we take it. Even if the means we have Quickie putting on a magic act in goal! Good Christ, the saves he made turned the clock back 10 years! He's been utterly amazing this year! Here are the Top 12 nominees for tonight's “Ozzy Quote of the GDT”, sponsored by The USA Swim team...the only team that takes more dives than the Penguins. I'm not gonna get on our defense. We won...In Pittsburgh! That's always a sweet "W"! I'll tell you what...I miss Rempe! and the winning quote for tonight’s GDT goes to @Dem! I admit I laughed out loud with the Snuffy reference! Let's find a way to douse the Islaes chances tomorrow. I'll take a win anyway we get it. Hopefully it's a 10-1 drubbing!
  9. Any relation to Igor?? (Alright, that's getting old, but I still find it funny!!)
  10. Best of luck with your new endeavor, HW!!!
  11. One day we're gonna just fill the net and explode... MAY TODAY BE THAT DAY!
  12. Am I the only one that cringes when it's "dancing Larry time"? Dude looks like he's sweating gravy after his "dances"!
  13. It was done before that in my mind, Scott. I saw the play that Laff screwed up. He tried to do too much with "not enough" space on the boards and had to pull the guy down and take that penalty. My take is that Panarin's GOTTA bury that 2 on 1 with Trocheck. It was really a 3 on 1 with Laff in tow. He had the whole top glove side open and Vassy was still a little deep in his crease. One day we're gonna find a way to put teams away when we get these chances. When that happens, shit like last night will become a lot less frequent. One thing I will say for sure...When Zibby took the shot in the mush and was out, the whole team looked like a body with no skeletal matter! Say what you want about Zibby, but if that guy is out, we're Fucked with a capital "F"! It was like watching a demolition implosion of a building!
  14. Panarin has been nothing short of unreal this season, but he had the chance to bury these fucking guys 3-0, and fucked the pooch when he let that 2 on 1 fizzle without a shot, forcing that pass to Trocheck. GOTTA SHOOT THAT! That was the beginning... Brodz really blew it and started their engine with that bone headed turnover. Then Mika getting involuntary dental work leaving the game for a spell was doom....add Lindgren to that as well. It was an "Im-Perfect storm" of shit last night. I was pissed at first, but it's nothing that can't be overcome. We fucking owned their asses in the 1st period and a half!
  15. Don't forget,my man. There's a 1st prize (Ozzy Cup WInner) bottle of champagne at stake!

  17. Deja Vu all over again, fellas! Where have we seen this before? Oh that's right 2 years ago in the playoffs! Up 2-0 and Panarin in on a 2-1...decides to try to force a pass and comes up with dog shit. Then Jonny Brodz totally fucks the duck, and gives Tampa the life they needed with not 1, but 2 of the worst turnovers since Ronald McDonald said, "Let's put some apple filling in that shit!". One of these days we're going to learn to put these guys away! Yes, Virginia, a great lesson to be learned here tonight! And here are the Top 18 nominees for tonight's “Ozzy Quote of the GDT”, sponsored by ITech, makers of the Fishbowl every Ranger will be wearing come the playoffs! I heard you in my head, Big Daddy @Keirik! I knew we had the chance again to bury these fucks, and it went by the board. Needless to say the result was the same! 6 fucking points for Point, and 5 for Kuchie-Koo! Lots of crazy plays and yet a pretty entertaining tilt to say the least! The winning quote for tonight’s GDT goes to @Scott! If Vesey is up first in the postgame, chances are the final score isn't going to look too promising to us!
  18. Oh shit, you're right, Blue! He did! My mistake dude! I read recently he was headed back to us...guess not! I blame Antonio Pierce!!! LOL
  19. My Raiders re-signed Jacobs! That's good! I thought he was a goner. I guess these guys really WANT to play for Antonio Pierce! Crosby stayed Devonte stayed and now Jacobs. Oh please draft or sign a good QB.... Please?
  20. Ok, let's shoot for another then... Keith @Keirik...dude, you and Pete @siddious pick a Day that you guys have in common...That's probably the easiest...
  21. Ahhh too bad, man. We could win that one!
