Game 46 Habs vs. Rangers

[kreidertime]

They are playing decent enough now that I will call them Rangers in the thread title. Watch them fuck that up tonight.

 

[PorterPanzer]

They jumped 2 spots in the wildcard race with the OT win last night, they will move past Montreal with a win tonight. Only 4 points off the 1st wild card spot.

I won't say Kakko can't play in NY. The way the Rangers developed Kakko and Lafreniere is fucking retarded as I have proven beyond all doubt multiple times. If you look at every other team as I've pointed out when they have a high forward draft pick. They play them 17+ minutes a night and on the first PP unit from day one. It also doesn't help that Zibanejad is a retard and can't play with anybody other than Kreider and Buchnevich and no longer gives a shit about playing hockey. Plus, Chytil the poor bastard can't stay healthy. However, Kakko for his size is soft. He's not a playoff type of player.

Can't go back to the Bumblings!(but they will at some point)

 

[Ranger71]

So terrible on odd man opportunities.

 

[Ranger71]

Zibaneschmo almost costs them a goal.

 

[Ranger71]

Loser Devils no help.

 

[kreidertime]

The Devils are not out of range. The Rangers have games in hand. If they win their four games in hand, they’ll be three points behind the Devils. The Devils play Montreal and Boston and Philadelphia twice the next four games.

 

[kreidertime]

This is the kinda intense game where Rempe needs to keep his elbows down.

 

[Ranger71]

If these guys don't get Quick 400..

 

[kreidertime]

Zibanedouche did something positive.

 

[Ranger71]

Kaliyev's very stiff.

 

[Ranger71]

Unbelievable

 

[kreidertime]

First bad Borgen play.

 

[Ranger71]

Smith has been awful lately.

 

[kreidertime]

I don’t think he’s been that bad. He’s a role player so I don’t expect that much.

 

[Ranger71]

Right, he just has made some shaky plays of late.

 

[Ranger71]

Poor Quickie, hung out to dry by these slugs.

 

[kreidertime]

They blow in overtime.

 

[Ranger71]

Send Miller to Mars.

 

[PorterPanzer]

Offensive zone turnovers lead to Hab goals, Meeka scored a PP goal on a wrist shot, had to laugh at Rempe getting an extra 2 for fighting Xhekaj but a good brawl.

Drury should not be giving up a lot of top youth for Miller. That would further fuck our future over more than it already is. I do not think this team will make the playoffs with all the teams ahead of them. I'm not confident in Drury to get good returns. Only good deal he has made so far is the Trouba trade.
