    This is an important stretch of games for ShesTwerkin. No more than two in any game and how about we see a shutout? Though I do like the idea (ORF?) that he scores before a shutout. Talk about trivia material

    Hey James do you have bats out your way?

    I have a confession to make – I was all this time very skeptical about Kravtsov, closely following him from the get go. but the kid, so far, prove me wrong, exceeding my expectation. I love when I’m getting pleasantly surprise, being wrong.

    My grandfather told me that he saw the Titanic, and that from the beginning he warned all the people that the ship would sink, but nobody listened to him. He was a brave man, he did not give up. He warned them again and again on several occasions…
    until they finally kicked him out of the cinema.

  56. EvNextYearInJerusariser Avatar

    So traded players don’t need to quarantine for their new teams? Why does Zac Jones?

  57. 4everanger Avatar

    Rangers should materialise some advantage before occasional bad bounce, or two, how it was so often with them, will ruin the whole game. Better cash in now.

    The Rangers have stopped skating. And this game has turned into a snooze fest.

    Great job by Fox there, letting that devils forward skate in unobstructed on shesty. Smh

  60. EvNextYearInJerusariser Avatar

    If the Rangers lose there will be excuses about the devils being young and now hungry because of all the vets that left. Y’know, just like laffy and kakko were when they started.

  95. EvNextYearInJerusariser Avatar

    I don’t know how that’s not embellishment by Subban. There doesn’t need to be an offsetting penalty in order for their to be a diving call. Why do I have the nagging feeling that the refs will never realize that, ever?

    Guys forget the playoffs. We would be one and done. Almost as bad as last year vs Carolina.
    Lets enjoy the rest of the season. Pick one or two playersto concentrate on and enjoy a growing team. We are only going to get better. In the summer;a No.1 center not named Eichel and some grit and a few fighters. Then next year lets shoot for the playoffs.
