Is there any particular reason this game starts at 8:00 instead of the usual 7:00 for home games? Even the last game against Calgary started at 7:30.

[BlairBettsBlocksEverything]

If we're gonna be playing 8:00 games as a courtesy to western conference teams so their fans are more likely to watch, then I hereby request that games on the west start at 530-6:00 their time so I don't have to stay up till 1:30 in the morning to watch too.

The Rock 'em Sock 'em Rangers at it again tonight!!!!  Let's see some more fireworks, boys!!!  If we keep playing games like the last few, especially the game against Calgary, we're going to be on Primetime TV for the rest of the season!!!

 

That game was a damn dogfight!!!!  ....with probably as much action as a Rambo flick!  LOL

[Sharpshooter]

After the barnburner the other night, I can totally see them taking this team for granted and getting trounced. lol Vancouver is coming off of a bad loss, so they need to be ready for this one.

[Keirik]

We, and the kid line, roll tonight! 

[Ozzy]

That was the OLD Rangers, Sharpy....The kids have this one covered tonight!!!

 

I got Chytil for another!  ...yeah I take back everything I said about Chytil, @Pete!!!  He's made me a believer!!!  LOL

[Sharpshooter]

Hopefully. They've been on a great streak for a couple of months. They just can't look past Vancouver tonight. Keep the lines together!!

…So my son and I can enjoy dinner before heading to MSG. (Oyster Bar or Keen’s Steakhouse)

Sounds good. Actually it works out for tonight too because I'm eating out with a bunch of people and probably won't get home until around game time anyway.

Same!  Actually, with how much I crushed this guy and now with how he's playing, it has me questioning if I really know anything about hockey at all!

[Sharpshooter]

What's happening to Chytil this year is the reason you have to be patient with young players. Everyone develops differently at different paces.

...and yet, I held out for Yukon and Kakko with no worries!!  I'm a fucking spaz, I admit it!!!   LOL

[Sharpshooter]

As bad as Lafreniere has looked this year (although much better lately), I'm not nearly ready to throw in the towel on him yet. 

[Valriera]

Just play the kids and let them dominate 

[siddious]

Start this off right

@siddious....Here you go, Pete!!!

I love the normal 5pm starts here in the mountain time zone.
