NFT: Avalanche @ Rangers, 7PM EST on MSG

bigbluehoya : 2/11/2017 10:11 am
Rangers go for the clean sweep of the 4 game homestand, and 5 straight overall.

Girardi ruled out after a very quick attempt to skate yesterday morning. Clendo lives.

Sounds like Hank will play again. I thought it seemed like a smart game to get some rest, but whatever.

No letdown tonight. This Avs team blows. Take it to them from the first drop and don't let up.

LGR.

might be a scouting trip  
pjcas18 : 2/11/2017 10:48 am : link
for a few area teams.

Avs are one of the few teams legit eliminated. Like it's not even close eliminated.

Rumored to be on the block are Duchene, Landeskog, Iginla, Tyson Barrie.

I think all could be moved, Duchene being the most talked about and the most costly, Barrie being the most surprising to me but i heard his name all off-season.
At one time Barrie sounded like a good option for the Rangers  
bigbluehoya : 2/11/2017 11:05 am : link
But I'm wary on him.

Already gets paid pretty handsomely, and his defensive numbers suck despite very lopsided OZ starts.

I know the poor talent around him throws the reliability of the numbers somewhat into question, but there are signs that he may not represent a substantial (or cost-effective) upgrade.
AVs Worst

I'm not a big fan of sub 6' defensemen. Barrie says he's 5' 10" but that might be a stretch. Reminds me of Tory Krug, he'd fine if you want a one-dimensional puck mover, but otherwise I'm not interested.

though I do believe he'd be an upgrade on the Rangers.


Hank going for 400  
TeamSchlitz1 : 2/11/2017 11:57 am : link
AV spoke after last game about Hank and NYR fan's connection. He wants to do it at home.

Agree  
PaulN : 2/11/2017 1:27 pm : link
This is a great time to get this 400 win goal out of the way and into the books, a home game against the Av's when the team is coming off 3 straight unimpressive wins, they are just getting everyone back and playing together, if they can get this win the next game against the Blue jackets will become the biggest game of the year. It is time to put a beat down on those celebrating fucks.
AV actually praised Clendo's game  
ColHowPepper : 2/11/2017 3:14 pm : link
of course he was asked about AC specifically, and quickly went on to say that all the guys who are healthy scratches work hard and gratifying to see them play well when called on, mentioned Puempel and others. While he takes some gambles in his own end that sometimes don't work out, to me they're snap judgments he makes, unlike the mindless, blind work of DG. Also see Clendo as helping on the PP, he gets speed up after regaining possession and flies along the right side boards, often being the first in over the BL and it helps open up the ice
Drop the fucking puck!

Wut?

No upside, just potential embarrassment.

Funny thing is without looking it up I'm pretty sure Colorado has had our number in recent years in our house.

I think you're right. If I recall correctly I was at the home game last year. All I remember is the rangers being flat, Duchene scoring at least once and I think it was twice, and losing a pretty boring game by 1-2 goals.

Lots of hockey left. But yeah.

I've got Nash tying this shit up before the end of the 2nd
I almost think it would be better to finish 4th in the Metro  
dpinzow : 2/11/2017 8:18 pm : link
as opposed to 3rd or 2nd. We'd get a run at the other division which is not on the Metro's level (although Montreal would be our 1st round opponent)
Ok cool, hoya

Confirmed?

I hope that firecrotch doesn't mean a conclusive "no", because he's just confused if that's the call.

It's my go to...in my mind there isn't a better whiskey for the money. Redbreast is fantastic but even that is running you in the 40 dollar range
Finally got myself some

2x2 inch ice molds.

I had a couple of spheres but it was a pain in the nuts to refill it for every single use. And if you have a few buddies over, are you going to have a dozen of those things in the freezer?
