Craps vs Rangers

[kreidertime]

Hopefully better than the shit show the first time they played

 

[Greyvtrayn]

At the Garden this time. I still hope to see that Wilson is a marked man.

 

[kreidertime]

It’s so obvious that Barron is a ton better than McKegg and Hunt

 

[kreidertime]

Shocking Chytil out as usual. Guy should change his name to fragile.

 

[kreidertime]

The game is slowing down for Lafreniere you could see it over the last 4 or 5 games

 

[kreidertime]

Strome you stupid lazy fuck

 

[Ranger71]

Failure to make a simple clear.

 

[mrmel29]

Can’t wait to see if strome gets the bay trick; 3 penalties on the last second of each period.

 

[NYR31]

Lafreniere having a monster game. He didn't get an assist on the 3rd goal but he was very involved in it.

 

[Greyvtrayn]

Great pass by Rooney and finish by Goodrow. Nighty night caps!

 

[NYR31]

Ok, it's 4-0. Time to fuck Wilson up now.

 

[kreidertime]

With Goodrow on the 4th line it’s actually a good line

 

[mrmel29]

Reeves already made Wilson his bitch tonight. Not a peep out of him. LOL @ espn with all their excuses why the rangers are kicking the caps asses

 

[Greyvtrayn]

Why would they break that up so quickly???

 

[kreidertime]

Of course Strome lost the faceoff that cost Shesterkin the shoutout

 

[Ranger71]

He had a less than stellar night. Shest could have at least 3-4 more SO this season.

 

[mrmel29]

IGOR is the runaway favorite for the vezina this year. Caps didn’t have much fight tonight. I though Barron and Jones both played well and stay in the lineup. Especially Barron.

Lafreniere having a monster game. He didn't get an assist on the 3rd goal but he was very involved in it.

I can't believe he did all of that while only getting 36 seconds of pp time

 

[panzerporter]

Rolling right along, Caps had no fight because of #75. I have to laugh at articles questioning the Rangers depth when they have guys like Barron and Jones fighting for a spot in the lineup. Not even playing to their full potential yet and the Rangers can still hang with any team in the NHL.

 

[kreidertime]

You should be surprised Al. Basically all young talented forwards don't do much offensively when they don't play on the PP. Apparently, your thick, bald head can't grasp that like most of our fan base. You would think that idiots in our fan base could look at the top 50 scorers in the league and then look at how much of their offense is on the PP.

 

[NYR31]

I can't believe he did all of that while only getting 36 seconds of pp time

PP time is huge for a player's offense and consequent confidence.

To Dump's point, a significant portion of players' points come from the PP.

Of the top 15 scorers in the league right now, almost 1/3 of their points came from the PP.

The % is much higher for our own top scorers. 45% of Panarin's points came from the PP. 42% for Zib, 45% for Fox and 48% for Kreider.

 

[kreidertime]

Exactly 31. It's not rocket science but for some reason a huge % of our fan base are dumb fucks and can't grasp that. So they expect Kakko ande Lafreniere to be putting up a lot of points. Not realizing that their offensive confidence not being on the first PP unit is going to suffer on a consistent basis.

 

[mrmel29]

I can't believe he did all of that while only getting 36 seconds of pp time

Al, Even though he won't its past time gallant replaced strome on the PP with laf.

 

[kreidertime]

Even more than that. How about never playing McKegg or Hunt over Barron. Barron looked so much better than those 2 guys, exspecially assclown Mckegg if I was Drury, I would release McKegg today.

 

[Greyvtrayn]

To further the point....it's painfully obvious that Laf doesn't have this type of game consistently so to try to dunk on it after one game is a stretch.

 

[kreidertime]

Lafreniere has actually played this well for 5 games in a row. Incompetent Zibanejad and Kreider haven't been able to cash in on his plays at even strength because for the most part they are below average players at even strength. Without the PP Zibanejad would have 9 g 22 A, Kreider would have 17 G 8 A . Lafreniere has 15 points at even strength getting 6 minutes less of icetime than Zibanejad and 5 minutes of icetime than Kreider. Plus, playing on a crap line most of the season.

 

[BigDaddyAl1973]

What is the point ....pp is 5th in the league...so let's tinker with it..why...because we have young players that need to be breast fed with pp time.
Because people on here feel the need to have laf or kakko score points that's more important than winning.

 

[Greyvtrayn]

Winning is great but you have to develop the young players on the roster....the older the Zibs, Kreiders, and Panarins get the less they will produce...to maintain success you need the younger guys to improve and take their place. Kreider is never going to have the season he is currently having again...he just isnt. And his reduced production needs to be made up for from other players. The guys you have to lean on are the Lafreniere's and Kakko's...to make up the difference if the Rangers are going to maintain their level of success.

 

[kreidertime]

Yep. Panarin is a top offensive player but his decision making is moronic a lot of the time. He makes a ton of low percentage passes each game and he is undisciplined with his shift lengths. That usually cost you in the playoffs. It is crucial that Kakko and Lafreniere continue getting better and get more icetime. Including first PP unit time. Chytil is a pussy. Guy never plays. Time to sell on him is now. Gourde is the guy to get. Then you have Korczak at center and Othmann and Cuylle coming on wing in a couple years.

 

[kreidertime]

On a side note, Hasek is either a booze hound or is on drugs. I agree Ovie is a Putin loving pussy. However, wanting all Russian players to be suspended. Find your brain Hasek you fucking whacko. You don't deprive somebody of their livelyhood because the country they were born in is run by a maniac. What a nutcase.
