  1. i gotta say an impressive 3/4 and probably could have been 4/4 if they didnt shit the bed in fla in the 3rd. one thing that stood out to me was regarding fox on the PP. i'm not the greatest hockey strategist out there but it seems to me letting fox roam the blueline without any pressure is not the right way for teams to play him. go back and look at the recap and sometimes there was noone within 12 feet of him. really nice to see ALF gaining some confidence. he looked like he was having fun out there.
  2. second part of the schedule looks pretty tough imo. will need to see more from them to stay in the hunt. good time to get a rest in. hopefully Igor is healthy to go when we come off the break.
  3. wonder if they came in early and chowed at Gibsons last nite. great town to party in.
  4. i was actually shocked it wasn't a cool billion. it's the ultimate rich guy toy.
  5. why is the french speaking thing such a big deal up there? i mean i get where they are but jeez, its 2022 almost for christs sake. learn to adapt and hire the best guy for the job.
  6. he's like AV in which he has success letting his top 6 operate. colorful guy too. the get a sack speech when he was in washington was epic.
  7. i liked AV during his time here. not sure i'd drop the C word on him but yes i concur that he really was the beneficiary of good goaltending. his system was 1 way which i agree to as well and when he matched wits against a better bench boss he could not adjust on the fly, especially against suter in the cup final who he had no answer for. that being said philly is really a dumpster fire and no way the blame falls on AV completely. some good reads in the Philly papers talking about bad drafting since as far back as 2002 and no continuity behind the bench (believe they've had 7 coaching changes.) the GM presser last week was a complete shit show and that guy should have been shown the door as well. they need a complete overhaul there top to bottom. hope there too stupid to see it nor have the patience to accomplish it. might be the worst fans on the planet and i include philly, eagle and sixer as well.
  8. dog shit call. galllant pulls a belicheck move about the deflected high stick. i love this coach. and that stick was fucking high
  9. im with you. houston is a growing market with an nba committed owner that wants to expand his brand. way more dough in houston.
  10. someone on the network said going from hank to igor was like the pack going from farve to rodgers.
  11. they all don't have to look pretty but good to bank another 2 points versus a team that really has no mojo at the moment. they have no confidence getting the pucks out of the zone and there gaps look terrible. they are bottom in the league in giving up shots and prime scoring chances. ton of injuries as well and a gm that really has no clue in what he said in that presser the other day. was good to see how we came out after the layoff. you so worry about the rust there and the taking for granted a struggling team. this hunt kid continues to impress. good to see kakko playing with confidence and like watching the kid line grow together. some more winable games coming up as well. the IGOR chants are becoming epic.
  12. feared the worst here. just like what sammy brings. Next man up as they say.
  13. reading this thread and not knowing anything it would look as if we had the yotes record.
  14. winning is infectious for sure but it looks like we have the making for a good locker room. didnt know much about blais but this kid is spit and vinegar with a motor that doesnt stop. lets kick the teeth out of ottawa saturday and get out of dodge. nice foundation though.
  15. youth is the jump and your spot on re conditioning. not ur fathers rangers for sure.
  16. wow. good road win. trouba making a big play late. this game was interesting. you can see they are still trying to figure each other out. strome and kakko out and yet u can see the character we brought in with sammy and reeves. alf is coming into his own. still a baby but damn u can see him figuring it out. 99/102 from shesty.. insane. the talent D and grit is there. love to watch this down the stretch. just has been a pleasure so far. was worth the wait.
  17. i'd take a win on the road early in the season any night of the week against that kind of team. the o.t. time was an instant classic.
  18. it would be nice if one of these years we would have a coach that can actually out coach the other team.
  19. waited all year for this one, especially since the gmen and jets are sucking ass. went down the basement to watch on the 70 inch tv and folded laundry. started losing my mind when the pucks started rolling in and the wife came down and yelled at me. should of went fishing. stripers are running nice now.
  20. at this point i'd like to see him have the surgery before making any decision. if you do get him you wont see him tll the 1st of the year most likely.
