Since the helmet toss game, they are 3rd. I’ve really felt their defense leaves a lot to be desired, but how does the eye test on that fail so miserably against what the stats say? Another interesting one: The Rangers are 9th in GF/GP. Since the helmet toss game, they are 2nd. Just slightly behind Edmonton. So since the helmet toss game, they are top 3 in both GF/GP and GA/GP. No other team is top 3 in both since that game. Not even the Bruins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an interesting factoid, but you would have to go and research what's going on with every other team in terms of injuries, strength of schedule, etc to make any type of correlation. Sum that up as I refuse to give GG credit for anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 It's good to have him back. For some reason I thought he signed a two year deal with Ottawa and was signed for next year. Will they re-sign him this around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if I agree or disagree on who's better, but I know that of all the games he's played, last night he was pretty good.

I’m not saying he’s been terrible but I thought that third pair looked a little more steady with harpur. We lost and this was what, the 4th game in a row they went down and had to try and climb back to win? Only reason I guess I bring it up (not that I’m blaming mikkola in particular). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hat tip to Hellebuyck. There's no reason to make lineup changes after the first regulation loss in a month. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kick save and a beauty Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 I think we need to shake things up at the back and get Igor's head right. Play Halak 2 games in a row. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let him and Schneider familiarize. There’s 25 games… 30% of the season left. Just roll please. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
