A couple of familiar faces playing for Anaheim. Let’s hope Panarin doesn’t pass to Strome every time these two are on the ice. Though I think Strome will be looking for Mika to pass back, especially on PP
Rangers (2-1-0) vs Ducks (1-1-0), 7 pm start, TV-MSG, ESPN+
Projected lineup:
Kreider-Zibanejad-Kakko
Panarin-Trocheck-Lafreniere
Vesey-Chytil-Blais
Hunt-Goodrow-Reaves
Lindgren-Fox
Miller-Trouba
Jones-Schneider
Kravtsov, Carpenter-injured
Hajek-prucha’d
Shesterkin in net

First to admit my deep disappointment from the last game and hope for some tonight’s rehabilitation.
Every Hank’s appearance is a fashion statement. One better than other…

Don’t hold your breath I’m not convinced they’re as good as they think they are.
Any minute now, Wick, any minute now. (Go Fast Day)
Reasonably high self-esteem doesn’t hurt, unless it grows to the arrogance…
Almost ideal lines tonight if only instead of Vesey we would have citizen Kane…Little boy can dream, doesn’t he?
You guys are in mid season form !
Means what, bobbyo?
Can Vesey become unliked and unexpected scoring hero (whilst temporary) like were guys – Grabner, Vatrano, etc.?
Slammin’ Sammy
anybody ever see the movie Slammin Salmon?
LGR!
Woot
Man, when the Rangers get cruising in the zone, they are crazy dangerous.
Minx why did you break the stream?
Woot woot
Troch looks cool and unamused after scoring…
It was mandatory in a book, Strome is next in shooting’s line. Besides, Shesty oversleep it. Should we say: “Lack of concertation”?
Anybody watch this game?
trying… damn streams are down and ESPN blacked me out per usual
Frankie V, eh?
I really not interested in learning process in Ducks organization. STFU Joe.
Frankie V …always shoots
Just loved Sam’s call’s on the first two goal’s.
Can we get Comtois before Ducks leave town
Karl stream is back
High glove on Igor again.
Did Igor forget to set his alarm clock today?
Bad gap by Schneider
Kreider with his heralded speed should take Zegras easily. Lazy play – cost goal. I’m afraid this will be another disappointment underlined by really weak team they are against…
I repeat they are not as good as they think they are.
No way the Rangers are going to win tonight playing this type of defensive hockey game. Nobody’s hitting checking controlling neutral ice. Got to score by being in front of the net working hard taking checks taking people out they’re not working hard at all. Imagine the Icelanders beat this team 7-1 awful
Need to shoot more and try cross ice pass less when down by the dots
At point and it’s eary I’m not at all impressed.
I forget when the Rangers score 5 on 5 last time…
Woot woot woot
Yeeesssss!!!!
Lol, better to be lucky than good
Better chance to get lucky in front of the net.
My rooted for, favorite Kakko gradually becomes power forward without a joke. Exactly what was hoped at draft.
The Minx is a bit cross tonight!
Just stop being cute and things will be fine
UnKakko’d
Wasn’t Kapo after all…Never mind.
ReKakko
Gravy
Re 8:21
No duh!
Nice job by Blais.
That’s a nice looking line
A Vermont pp trick?
In game jamesgeau
Wow…great save
Nice pass Chytil
Woot woot woot woot
Laffo busto!!!!!
Everybody gets a goal!
Pass went Right through Captain Kirk’s legs
Great keep by Trouba
Sharty!!
What a shot!
I would say Gibson >> Shesty so far, despite of score. (if you know what I mean).
Another great shot!!!
Woot woot woot woot woot
Great job by Dudley
Not anymore, LOL. You dont give Panarin so much space and time. poor Gibsy
Not a good idea backing up on Breadman
So Bread doesn’t miss Strome?
Ok I’m a dumb azz!
Becomes very interesting when you start having the other team watch you play rather than watch them play control Puck control
Gravy needs the intermission more than anyone!
So bread doesn’t miss kravtsov?
Knuckles are swollen.
Beezle
He’ll need a woot refill
My wife and I are doing elder care this week in Crystal River with her mom and dad so I am a bit out of my comfort zone.
Panarin is the best I’ve seen him as a Ranger
That guy the yard gnome is talking to looks like crap
Who is this Kravtsov guy anyway?
Only 16 goals in 3+ games without Kravtsov.
kids. making me happy
poor Gibson. his mask is classic btw, hadn’t noticed it before
Don’t care if it kids or geriatrics, as long as they win.
All the right names getting it done tonight.
Kumquot?
Igor less than sharp tonight
How come that I saw that coming and Shesty was not? Sleepy night, Igor?
Smart play by rangers there to let them score.
Need 2 goal or less lead to give Vermont a chance at a Hattie!
First line is battling boards like a forth line.
Igor as sharp as foam rubber.
Should be another one in Igor kitchen…
Aren’t they latex?
No need to
No need for d men to pinch or go to 5r net wi5 2 goal lead in 3rd
Rangers just trying to mail in the period
Need a lot of stamps
During a break, “Duncan” the goalie sits on the crossbar.
A PPG would put this preseason-like game away for the Rangers
….speaking of! Mika laser shot!
Come on Vermont
Woot woot woot woot woot woot
Or Meeka lol
Zika’s circle
Crowd paying attention. No hats thrown.
No offence to anyone, but sometimes it looks like our beloved Kreider is the dumbest out of 5 on ice. Just melancholic observation from passerby…
Gravy’s fingers on a 348 woot pace…
Pond defense.
Bad laffo
Not a great nigh for defense
Vermont Hattie back on
October hockey
It’s quite amazing with total Rangers’ domination, – every other rarest Ducks attack ends up in our net tonight. Kind of worrisome.
Another night of pond hockey like in Minnesota. GG won’t be happy with this one. Hope it isn’t a trend. Good time for Igor to have an off night though.
GG’s gonna work their a**es off in tomorrow’s practice.
Stick Salute, Mama!
No Hattie for Vermont.
Bread 1G3A and -2
KAM -2
Mika’s one timer may be more lethal than OV’s now.
Trochek can hit open nets. That’s a big plus this year.
Very sloppy they need to tighten it up. Laffo-Busto playing shuffleboard on the 4th goal. Igor not focused.
ORF
He wins draws which is even more important
St Pete
Yep re laffo
See my 9:31
To be fair I thought Shesty was screened pretty good by our D on 2 of the goals.
Wick
I saw it before my post I just thought it needed repeated.
On a positive note, the bottom 6 looked pretty good in their roles.
St Pete
It absolutely did
Shesterkin 4 goals against on only 22 shots. Not good.
Great job by the boys, of backing up Shesty when he had a horrible game. He’s been doing it for them forever.
“Frank Vatrano! It’s a power play goal!” Sam Rosen after Trochek scored on PP.
I almost chocked on my pelmeni laughing when I heard that.
Retirement home “Coherent Community” awaits, Sam.
I still haven’t seen any evidence that that puck hit Kakko and not the defenseman’s skate. I love seeing Kakko succeed and get his confidence up, but an early season hatty by Zika might’ve been even better.
Hey, be happy that Sam even thought of a player that was actually in this game.
KC it was kaakos stick tip that redirected it down onto the defensmen skate for the pinball goal
