QUOTE(S) TO NOTE:

“I think there’s been really good leadership in the room. It starts with Jacob Trouba, who has been an absolute warrior for our team. With regard to him, he played really well [Saturday], but he did that on top of 28 minutes in a really physical game [the day before in Philadelphia]. That’s the captain of your team, setting the tone [Friday] and then backing it up with another great performance. “I think that that stems through the room to the other leaders and that trickles down to a guy like Will Cuylle, who you saw went to battle [Friday]. I do think that that’s set inside of the room, starts with guys like Trouba, Mika [Zibanejad], [Chris Kreider], [Artemi Panarin], [Vincent Trocheck].”

 

— Head Coach Peter Laviolette praising the Rangers’ leadership group

After two big post holiday wins (in afternoon games no less!), this game has huge letdown written all over it. Hopefully I'm wrong, but I wouldn't be surprised, especially coming off that barn-burner against the Bruins and it's their third in four nights. No matter, keep the machine rolling!

I haven’t seen a You’re The Man Now Dog link in over a decade. Wow. 

[Phil]

Absolutely fucking incredible GDT title. I bow to you, @Morphinity 2.0.

 

HAMMER OF KOTES!

[Valriera]

Great quote from laviolette on trouba. The 28m toi is an easy to overlook stat but the dude has stepped up tremendously since Fox went down and sacrificed nothing in his game to do it. 

 

One of these games is going to be a trap loss but it's not today. 4-1 rangers, another goal from the best fourth line in the league

Buffalo always give the Rangers fits. Expect atleast 1 goal from Skinner and some weird fight/scuffle from guys you wouldn't expect it from.

Was just thinking the same thing. Hopefully they keep the pace up!

[Dem]

I'm going to miss most of the first period. Please make sure the Mayo talk gets started so the Rangers win!

[Ducky]

Buffalo missing some good players. Rangers need to kick butt tonight and not fall into a trap. LGR!!

[Pete]

I'll be there tonight, Kakko gonna pop off.

6-2 Rangers and they go 100% on offensive-zone draws.

I think you're right. Not 3 points, but he's definitely getting atleast one goal tonight.

Rangers in seven.
