Ozzy Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Anytime we take 2 points without 3 of our top players in the lineup, is a pretty good accomplishment. We're gonna have to rough-it for most of November, so I welcome this kinda game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I do have to say, I like the way PP1 looked with Gustafsson looked back there. I know that it seems like I hate Adam Fox. I don’t. I love the guy and I realize how brilliant he is. Yes, I have gripes with some things he does. But, I’m not stupid. The guy is a Top-2 or 3 defenseman in the sport; particularly when it comes to his performance on the PP, where he is one of the very best quarterbacks of a power play in the sport. All that I’m saying is that it was nice to have a lefty out there to shake it up a bit and have a threat on both sides up top to take a one-timer. Gustafsson also has a ton of experience QB’ing on the PP on other teams where he has been successful. He has been such a fucking steal for what we gave him. And at least we’re not flailing looking for someone to fill in there, because we seem to be continuing to dominate on the man advantage. No reason for you to get flamed. It looked incredible. lol Gus has been one of the best FA signings in the NHL. Unbelievable production so far at a bargain price. The dude is going to make bank in the offseason if he keeps this play up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Definitely happy with the win, but as far as the game goes it's hard to evaluate. They looked killer at times, they got caved at times, and Detroit look like shit most of the night. Hard to take away anything significant other than the two points. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Get points where we can. At this point, without our top dawgs, it's not going to be easy or pretty I don't think. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once we get Igor back things will settle down some. Quick has done what needs to be done but Igor will win us a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albatrosss Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Zach Jones is dogshit on defense. Couple of nice moves offensively but boy, he sucks on D 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJWantsTheCup Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Strange stat, before last night no Rangers center had scored this season at 5 on 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panarin's line is line 1 no matter how the lines are listed. The Zibby line and "3rd line" equally used. Whether you want to call them two 2nd lines, or two 3rd lines, or two mid-6 tweener lines, is a matter of opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash or Czech Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Zib's line is essentially a bunch of special teams specialists that we have to play at 5v5 too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdog99 Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 (edited) Zib is the best center on the team. Which is why its so important to find a way to get that line going. Whether that means finding the right RW (still looking since Zucc, Buch...) Or if need be putting Panarin on his LW. I just can't see how you can tolerate Zib not producing at a top 6 level at ES.

Ozzy Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Pitlick had a solid game, hitting guys and getting pucks deep. He's a lot better on the cycle down low than I remember from the first couple of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year against the playoff teams Zib went 4 goals and 17 assists in 39 games at even strength. This has been going on for awhile now. Edit: added in the Devils series: 5 goals and 18 assists at even strength in 46 games. Edited November 8, 2023 by Br4d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jdog99 Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Yea...we've been here before with zib...and he always ends up catching fire at some point. Lets see who has the balls to trash him when he goes on the inevitable heater again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
