Game 19 Rangers vs. Bruins

[kreidertime]

Lost 4 in a row to the Bruins. Better bring their A game today.

 

[kreidertime]

Underrated Bonino for sure.

 

[faatanqui]

BONINO. 1st goal as a ranger!!!

Everybody is scoring and playin their part well.

[faatanqui]

[mrmel29]

Rangers looking good. Frederic trying to stir up trouble. Cuyyle laughs at him

 

[kreidertime]

I can’t believe the last time I saw the Rangers dominate anybody especially the Bruins on faceoffs like this. I just checked the stats and I couldn’t believe it.

 

[kreidertime]

Wtf

 

[mrmel29]

Bad pinch by lindgren

 

[faatanqui]

Knew it wouldn’t be this easy ..

new ball game


Now will see what this team is made up of


2-2

 

[faatanqui]

All the makings of a classic

go rangers

 

[mrmel29]

Shorthanded goal by Kreids (who else) on his way to breaking jagr’s ranger record and rangers lead 3-2 after one

 

[kreidertime]

Rangers have their heads up their ass defensively today

 

[mrmel29]

Vesey gives the rangers a 4-3 lead

 

[mrmel29]

ITS MILLER TIME and it’s 5-3 rangers

 

[mrmel29]

And pitlick makes it 6-3 good guys

 

[mrmel29]

And the breadman says make it 7-4

 

[kreidertime]

Lafreniere should have had 7 to 8 points the last 2 games. Now playing with a ton of confidence. Rangers 43-26 on draws.

 

[NYR_94]

I know we are only 19 games/23% of the way into the season, but how can you not feel this team can be special. 15-3-1 so far, played 5 more road games than home games, and have beaten NJ, Boston, Carolina, Vancouver, Winnipeg, all good to very good teams.

They are 2nd in the NHL on FO's, 3rd on the PP, 6th on the PK, and lead the league in GAPG. Lavy has them playing with structure and purpose. They are playing North South and shooting way more than they have in years.

And they have shown great depth (4th line has been great recently), as we have done it without Fox and Chytil for 9 games. If not after the next game, hopefully Fox will be back sooner rather than later.

This is really exciting stuff. Looking forward to seeing this play out.

 

[kreidertime]

Last year, the Bruins had the most regular season points in history and they got ass fucked in the first round. So much for that special theme.

 

[NYR_94]

What does that have to do with anything. In the NHL playoffs there are upsets all the time. No clue how this will play out, but the Rangers look like a very good team, and can be right there. Just like every team in the NHL playoffs, they could also lose in the 1st round.

Will they win a Cup, who knows in November, but that isn't the point at the moment after 19 games. The point is this team is doing a lot of things really well and has been great so far. We all should enjoy the exciting journey.

 

[faatanqui]

Another big win, parts of the game were absolutely dominated by the rangers . Vs the bruins, still considered one of the best even tho they had a first round knockout.



go rangers

 

[kreidertime]

Special teams win championships. I swear, the bar has been lowered beyond belief by candy ass NY fans. There was a time in this area when anything less for a NY team than a championship was a failure. Now, a lot of NY fans are happy with a good regular season and a couple of playoff round wins. You would think this is fucking St. Louis. One cup in 85 years. Anything less than a cup for the Rangers is a failure. Period.

 

[Ranger71]

Penalties need to be limited a bit but otherwise a very good start to the year.

 

[kreidertime]

I’m enjoying the season, but ultimately if you don’t win the Stanley Cup, no one gives a fuck. I couldn’t tell you all the players on the team that lost in the finals with Henrik. However, I could tell you everybody on the 1994 team.

 

[Messiah717]

I see it as a great start to the first quarter of the season. In fact the best in their history. That said anything can happen in the 75% of the season that remains. Knock on wood no major injuries because obviously, they have weathered the Fox and Chytil injuries without missing a beat.

 

[BigDaddyAl1973]

What a fun game to watch after being out all day...

 

[mrmel29]

Changes from last season due to having a real coach with a system…….Faceoffs, exiting from D zone, forecheck and getting thru to Laf! EXTEND LAVS NOW!

 

[faatanqui]

Yes winning it all is the goal

you don’t win the season, is failure

I agree with that to an extent

even the great Derek Jeter said it

but the constant reminding us about it makes me think of Erving Feffer in Along came Polly..

it’s not about what happened in the past , or what happens in the future. It’s the ride for Christs sake. There is no point in going through this crap IF YOURE NOT GOING TO ENJOY THE RIDE.

After perhaps your worst prediction in decades early in the season regarding the West Coast trip thought you might lay low and eat a little humble pie for a bit dumpy but to your credit you're doubling down. Instead of waiting for the end of the season to gloat if the Rangers fall short you're going to squat over the celebratory punch bowl all season dropping dukes whenever a success starved fan comes over for a sip. You're beyond the horse whip. I've just told Santa to bring you an autographed copy of Adrian Peterson's "Guide to Proper Switch Cutting and Sizing" so you can self discipline whenever the urge to be a New Year's noodge comes along.
