1st or not it’s not fair.
Why Fogarty
Something telling me that Georgiev will face close to 50 shots tonight.
Smith out Fogarty in
below from prev thread
#Leafs injury roundup:
– Ilya Mikheyev (ligament damage, three months)
– Trevor Moore (concussion, no timetable)
– Andreas Johnsson (leg, no timetable)
– Jake Muzzin (broken foot, week-to-week)
Fast with Panarin and Strome is subtraction by addition and dumb as dirt!
4.ever.first.
Andreas Johnsson is exactly the kinda rat the Rangers need
Quinn scratched his best friend.
Unbelievable ! Again, – 3 chances to get puck out …and this.
Great PK. Allow repeated shots from 10 feet in front of the goalie.
All aboard the Ranger rollercoaster
Anyone see who the jackass was that made the horrendous pass that led to the penalty?
How in hell did Davidson ever let Panarin get away? Oh, wait….
Strome Dome!
That guy is something else
Hanka Hanka says, “thank you Coach Quinn for starting Georgi tonight“
Hyman looking to break
Phenomenal saves!!
Rangers are getting manhandled. Especially in their own zone
That’s a Panarin goal with a nice Strome finish, but there’s some Fast on that goal for those who can’t stand him on top lines. No assist and key to the turnover. The Rangers won’t be good until he’s on the 4th or gone, but the guy does his job.
Toronto -faster than a speeding bullet
The Rangers defense backs up right into their own goal crease. It is maddening.
$50 he doesn’t score
He didn’t realize it was Buchnevich or he would’ve just let him go
Wow! What skill!
Tune in for “weak ass effort on a penalty shot” starring Pavel
Buchnevich..
Lindgren would probably have scored on that though.
I thought Tony D was going to decapitate Kappinen
Fox just took a Nash shot.
Hyman busts open
Buch is just clinical idiot.
#89 is a head case
“Good job by Skjei” is a phrase you hear spoken by an announcer maybe once a month. That was the one for this month.
Tune in for “weak ass effort on a penalty shot” starring Pavel
Buchnevich.. Then in the slot he does not shoot. He has zero hockey sense.
Buch sux. Shoot the F’ing puck, Morin
Buch = Hockey Skill minus Hockey IQ
Players who need a change of sweater stat:
#76
#89
Who’s Morin?
Papa – agreed
Hesitant and mentally unstable are just a beginning of Buch syndrome description…
Matthews just found out Chytil is a pretty big boy
Nylander looks like the 2nd coming of Guy LaFluer
He’s not on the scoresheet, but Filip Chytil had played one heck of a period.
Ev – I meant moron
Good road period
Make him Pavel Bench-Nevich
They should package Skjei and Buch and keep Kreider.
This place rocks. If all you knew were the comments here, you’d assume the R’s were down 7-1.
Do all these guys think it’s still Porn Movember?
No one asked you Norm. Unless you’re going to be negative like the rest of us, you don’t belong here 🤣
E3, I knew that. I was hoping you’d come up with a joke excuse. I was wrong.
evr, you should do what I do and get the the feed from the other team’s announcers, who have no idea who our whipping boys are and routinely say good things about them.
evr, to the 7-1 comment, I do it all the time. It’s how I root for all my teams, moaning and groaning throughout and going nuts when they score.
Stromboli!
What a shot 😮
Holy Toronto-born referee, Batman!
George the animal!
One of these days they’ll make faceoffs a priority.
That’s 2 minutes off the clock at least.
Rangers empty net woes continue
Should’ve score there…
They are so bad in their own end they need to get about 5 to have a chance to win against any decent team. It is really depressing to watch. Headed to 40 +SOGs again. Not anyway to be a good team.
This guy is something else!!!
Interesting “catch me ” game…
That’s new – attack from behind after spearing.
Strome is not a girl scout either, though…
That was a nut shot. Didn’t someone get suspended for doing that to Crosby?
BTW, would be nice is someone else could score beside usual suspects – bona fide scorers.
Another 20 SOG period. Of course the Rangers had 19. Not much time spent in the neutral zone in that period. BTW they will miss Kreider after the trade deadline.
Lazy Buch on the leafs 2nd goal…
2C Stromeo
Mika Panarin & Artemi Zibanejad have been the two best players on the ice tonight
Another great save on a Ranger by the empty net.
Chaotic defense strikes again.
These guys are so ridiculously bad in their own zone
It’s 9:21. Do you know where your Ranger fans are?
Not here.
They have to get 5 to win. How often can they do that? Not often enough. They aren’t the Oilers from the 80s.
Is this thing on?
Tony D’s weak clear led to the goal and then he didn’t cover anyone in front. He’s a box of chocolates. Shooting gallery the rest of the way.
Zero offensive zone time = Loss
How can a team be so horrendous in their own zone?
Shay Sux
Are we really gonna spend the last 6 minutes killing a “penalty”
I hate the Leaves. Vocal annoying fans in our rink, yet they couldn’t do squat against the Fishtanks in Tavares’ return game.
All plays die on Buch…waste of roster space tonight…
Both teams played last night. Only one looks like it.
Ahhh prevent defense.
Here’s the flat-footed final 5
There may be as many Leaves fans at this game than isles or Derbils fans when those respective teams play here. Wow
I don’t think the linesmen have any actual clue what icing is.
Panarin looking for the Selke award tonight.
Rangers need a power play so they can knock the last 2 minutes off the clock
This is disgusting
Sam Sam Sam
Congratulations, you just scored on a horrid defense.
They deserved that. They suck.
Smoking in the dynamite shed
Autogoal…
Hey Matthews, Howabout suiting up for Team USA next tournament???
One point in the barn.
They need 5 to win evey night. Until that changes they will continue to suck.
How could one team lose So many faceoffs
There’s no way they won this game in OT. They look exhausted. Either that or they’ve spent the entire third period conserving their energy for OT.
This should last about 30 seconds.
This won’t last long. At least they get a point.
So predictable. AWFUL coaching by rolling 3 lines on a back to back game. This is ALL on Quinn’s dumb decisions. Idiot.
Strome sustaining the unsustainable tonight.
Unless the Rangers win the faceoff. Then it’ll be 35 seconds.
This should be over in under a minute.
Good point?
YOU SUCK SAM!!!!
Sam is lost!!!!!
OVER IN UNDER A MINUTE.
There’s that second point!
Correction. Sam Rosen is a bigger idiot than Quinn. I mean did he just have a stroke?
Another win we don’t deserve but I’ll take it.
FUGG THE MAPLE QUEEFS! LGR!
Rosen is a delzaster behind the mic tonight.
Tony D ⭐️
Panarin ⭐️⭐️
Strome⭐️⭐️⭐️
Rosen should just go to football fulltime
That Panarin youngster can really play, can’t he?
The SOG and face off stats continue to suck. What does the coaching staff do?
Jeez Sam just said while watching the GWG, “and here’s the 4th goal of the game!”
Man dude is lost.
You guys nailed OT
4 pt game for unsustainable.
At least Quinn finally realized Skjej should not be on ice late with a one goal lead
Breadman with an incredible look off as he made that pass…
How much does this game get the Leaves attention regarding Georgiev, and a potential trade?
Tony D is gonna cost big $ next contract
Poor Sam.
Panarin passes with the surgical precision.
Well it did end quickly. Can the MVP be on a lottery team? Panarin has been incredible. Torts said we would like him.
Strome 35 points in 38 games.
Bread man told his tale
Strome continues to sustain the unsustainable.
(drops mic…)
Tony D.
8 goals, 28 points in 38 games.
I hate losing Chris Kreider. Thanks Bettman.
Tony D is like a box of chocolates. But it will be expensive chocolate. Is Keith Yandle much better?
Keith Yandle actually plays some defense now. Who knew.
Never ceases to amaze me….game is on the line and 18 is on the ice….????
You can set your watch to the ensuing disaster….and bingo Maple Leaf goal with 51 tics left.
And because the coaches are really smart……I could swear I saw 18 out there to start the ot or perhaps it was like a bad acid flashback. And like I have said before and so many others have as well….where would they be without Panerin and Zibanajad?
And do you guys really still want to trade Strome? I get that he benefits from Panerin…sure….but put Howden there for example and the results will not be the same. Strome can shoot the biscuit and maybe just maybe he is finally being that first round draft pick he was supposed to be?
BTW if they keep giving up 40+ shots they are going to need 5 goalies. I get tired just watching.
There are actually a few teams in the league who allow more shots than the Rangers. Hawks are the worst.
Old Ranger fan….that’s not comforting🙈🙊🙉
Wolf pack beat Providence 4 to 1 tonight. Shesty in goal saved 30 of 31, Kravtzov got his second and Rykov had 2 assists. He already has 5. The future is so bright we have to wear shades.
I’m really going to dislike the Shatty signing if it costs us Kreider or Strome.
It is still a puzzlement to me as to why Shattenkirk was bought out and
18. What is it about Staal that the Rangers see that we are blind to?
The guy is done….they couldn’t give this guy away to the local Goodwill.
The hate against Staal is ridiculous on here.
ORF, you’re wrong. They’re aren’t a few teams that let up more shots a game than the Rangers, there’s only the one you mentioned: Chicago.
Chicago gives up about one shot per game more than us and we give up 2 more shots per game than the next team.
The next team, by the way, is the Avalanche. Guess it’s not as important a stat 🤷🏻♂️
Also, the team that gives up the least amount of shots per in the league is Los Angeles 🤷🏻♂️
Ev….I don’t hate Staal….just doesn’t have it anymore…and I was only making an attempt at humor. Guess I should keep my day job.
What’s wrong with Buchnevich? He seems slow and a bit outta it.
Rich
The Shatty signing was the mistake not the buyout. The buyout is in lieu of a similar salary on next years cap (not in addition to). You probably know that and most do as well.
I just really dislike that signing. The gift that keeps on giving.
#18 sent out there late not that he can defend or win an important wall battle, or hit net with a puck, but because his non-physicality guarantees no penalties.
