  1. Yeah I was outside with the kids and had the game on my phone, but missed the goal initially. I caught the replay, and I thought they had a PP or goalie was pulled from listening to the announcers. Sue me!
  2. The Isles were ringing posts and dominated the 3rd period. Panarin clutched it on the PP. Igor with several big saves. Special teams and goaltending. The recipe for success for the Rangers.
  3. Panarin’s been junk the last 3 games. Against two teams that are playing clog it up playoff type hockey.
  4. I’ve already tried that with your wife’s skirt and it doesn’t work
  5. They are already brainstorming about who needs a totally necessary surgery the day before next season starts
  6. I'm pretty sure you are right. Making up for some of your Kreider takes
  7. I mean ok, but 2 games left in the season and we're doing this? Gus-Trouba have 62 minutes of TOI this year, and if anyone wanted to push for Jones instead of Gus, Jones-Trouba has 7 minutes of TOI.
  8. Chytil is a strong 5v5 player, particularly offensively. If he actually is fully healthy and can play to his potential, it would be an amazing boost. My issue is that I just can't imagine his game would be the same for a while yet. Trepidation and all of that. He might still be a good addition to the lineup, but maybe not as effective as he otherwise would be.
  9. I think his analytics since he's come back are the best they've been all season lol, but actual team production with him on ice at 5v5 is 2 GF vs 8 GA. Given the obnoxiously small sample size of 7 games, there's no replacement for needing a supporting eye test here, because there's been goals against he has been directly responsible for happening. It doesn't matter how much the ice is tilted while you're out there, if you're making some of the egregious mistakes he is. Those will kill you in the playoffs, and obviously the most in OT periods. There's been cases where he's been too aggressive, and I'm not sure where that's coming from. I forgot what game it was, but that one weird pinch up to the blue line when he was last man back and Cuylle was also being dumb dancing the blue line. Know your role pal (that goes for Cuylle too on that particular play)!
  10. I get why the team and he would want to come back to be around the team for the playoffs, but practicing without a non-contact jersey is not that. It's happening.
  11. No they didn't. That was all Shesterkin. Shesterkin has come back down to earth, .882 sv percentage last 4 games, and the Rangers have 0 5v5/ES goals in the last 2 games. That's not to excuse Trouba. He's not been good since coming back, but the way the team looks, relying on goaltending and suffering from a lack of scoring chance generation at 5v5/ES is nothing new. This is simply just what it looks like when they can't capitalize on those few chances they get.
  12. No 5v5 or ES goals in the last 6+ periods of hockey. These games also don't mean a lot. Just stay healthy.
  13. You belittled a source, then used it to try and prove a point. I responded to that. I did not respond to your 2nd paragraph because you didn't make any new points. It's regurgitating. I just like to look to the data to provide hope, rather than hope just because they're my favorite team, so we just won't agree and it's time to move on.
