NFT: NY Rangers @ Toronto Maple Leafs - Round 2 - 7:30pm

MetsAreBack : 1/19/2017 11:40 am

I'll start this bitch before Anak continues the losing streak around here. Staal and Puempel are skating again, but did not make the trip, and Quickie is out through the all-star break. I presume Lindberg gets the audition the next 4 games.

No word on goalie tonight - Hank spoke like he was preparing to start tonight, but AV also threw him under the bus a bit yesterday at his press conference saying Hank is in "unchartered territory" and "no doubt has a confidence issue" while also stating we need our goaltending to be a lot better. Spent less than 3 seconds yesterday talking about defensive liability/structure, in fact said all other non-goaltending aspects of the team were trending in the right direction. OK then.

Not the team you want to be facing when you're goalie/defense are in shambles, but one thing we've seen this year, just when you think the chips are down, they fight and come through.

Lets start a win streak tonight, fellas.

JT stays hot!

The real JT!

All 3 lines  
bigbluehoya : 1/19/2017 8:57 pm : link
Can win either on the carry in or chip/chase and win along the boards. I like it.

Hopefully playing with Hayes/JT can get Vesey going a bit
My bad  
bigbluehoya : 1/19/2017 8:58 pm : link
Vesey on 4th line. I must have caught him earlier on a partial change or something
Strange goal  
Kyle in NY : 1/19/2017 8:59 pm : link
looked like that went off Hunwick's head. Sam and Joe still haven't noticed
Yeah Vesey kind of in a tough spot  
Kyle in NY : 1/19/2017 9:00 pm : link
Just no real spot for him in the top 9 right now so his game has stagnated just a little bit
Zibby is so skilled  
Deej : 1/19/2017 9:01 pm : link
(re passing on this PP)

Eh, we've had a full compliment of wings for about 5 minutes. JV's game was down before Nash and Buch were back.

Grabner has an extra gear tonight.
That is true  
Kyle in NY : 1/19/2017 9:07 pm : link
Rookie wall, maybe
Great job Clendening  
B in ALB : 1/19/2017 9:09 pm : link
This defense is an abomination.
Vesey needs to be with one of the slick set up men  
Deej : 1/19/2017 9:09 pm : link
in my opinion. Zucc, Zibby, or Buch.

Fuck, Clendo got his pocket picked. Ugly.
Leafs had nothing going  
Kyle in NY : 1/19/2017 9:11 pm : link
and Clendening does that. Powerplay can't do a thing against this team either
I think Clendo  
Deej : 1/19/2017 9:15 pm : link
thought he was gonna pass to Zibby and got flustered when Zibby moved.
There was definitely miscommunication  
Kyle in NY : 1/19/2017 9:23 pm : link
Just gotta make a safe play there up 2 though. Unfortunate because him and Skeji have been great otherwise. And with a play like that he almost surely comes out of the lineup eventually. Even though others do similar things without repercussion.
Komarov

Clendening flashes enough that I think he deserves more burn. Those types of bonehead moves will go away.
I agree  
Kyle in NY : 1/19/2017 9:50 pm : link
But I'm not holding my breath that it will happen
That's a huge goal  
bigbluehoya : 1/19/2017 9:59 pm : link

Grabs!!!  
Stufftherun : 1/19/2017 9:59 pm : link
Uuuuuge goal!
Grabner!

GRABNER

Boom
......  
BrettNYG10 : 1/19/2017 10:01 pm : link
See who made that happen?

Hayes.

Suck it, pj.
Tough guy Matt Martin  
Kyle in NY : 1/19/2017 10:01 pm : link
sure went down easy there. Justice with the SH goal. Grabner has played an incredible game. Last season we barely had any SH goals. Leading the league this season

What a fuckin job tonight by the OP stealing the puck from anak
I have to look up our home / road splits since late November  
MetsAreBack : 1/19/2017 10:05 pm : link
I have so much more confidence in this team on the road lately
Grabner....

Gotta love that term, too!
Holy shit Hellberg is a giant  
MetsAreBack : 1/19/2017 10:12 pm : link
He must be slow as shit laterally - he towered over Lundqvist in that post game

Great bounce back by 30. See you Sunday afternoon pregame to Nfc championship game fellas
That's what a varsity threadstart looks like.  
Davisian : 1/19/2017 10:14 pm : link
Much better structure and attention to detail. Played better as a unit.

keep Nakiper Jr. in the film room.

Thank you MAB!  
B in ALB : 1/19/2017 10:21 pm : link
You just can't have ham n egg vlogging sizzle chested carrot shuffling panty sniffers tainting our games with fake threads and lame attempts at being a leader. Well done picking it up for Tanner Anak jr.
Absolute bullshit that we're what? Second in league wins or something  
Anakim : 1/19/2017 10:22 pm : link
And we're fourth in the division


Get rid of the consolation overtime point. Such bullshit.




Nice win though. Hell yeah!
Great job MAB.  
BrettNYG10 : 1/19/2017 10:23 pm : link

MAB with the Hat tonight for sure  
B in ALB : 1/19/2017 10:24 pm : link
And Henrik gets one too. Well deserved on both accounts.

Keep Tannak down in the Hartford press box.
Yup  
Carl in CT : 1/19/2017 10:25 pm : link
2 for the win and 1 for a tie.
Can't believe how good grabner has been...  
djm : 1/19/2017 10:28 pm : link

Such horseshit  
Anakim : 1/19/2017 10:32 pm : link
I'm not worried about making the playoffs, but we'd have home-ice advantage if it wasn't for that stupid consolation point....or at least be tied with Columbus.
Impressive performance  
Kyle in NY : 1/19/2017 10:40 pm : link
11 goals in two games with the full forward lineup back. Zib looks fantastic

Way to lead MAB

If you would stop starting game threads it would be helpful for our position in the standings too

Not sure what you mean Vanzetti  
MetsAreBack : 1/20/2017 5:45 am : link
Its fact that neither goal was on Hank (he also made several terrific saves -- the D still really needs to clean shit up) and Hank himself in his post game said this was a big win for him personally and not your normal regular season victory for the team in general.

Of course I'm not sure how deej saw the goals since he's been so focused on the Knicks lately including leading them onto the floor last night.

I got somewhat lucky flipping back and forth, catching all but one goal in the Ranger game.
Hank played a good game  
bigbluehoya : 1/20/2017 8:39 am : link
He'd probably admit that he would like a do-over on the second one, but there's no blame available for anyone but Clendo on that play.

Great win, MAB.
Ducialr headed to the AHL..
