Can we play according to our ability and not play down to the opponent? Nobody was overplayed last night, and if you think about it Monahan and Tkachuk played less minutes than they are used to. Hard to tell without gameday skate, but it "appears" according to some there will be no changes except in nets. A little far from home, but I expect Johnny's family will make the trip. He plays well in front of them. We would be well to not give time and space to Dougie. He's got a rocket.

I am hoping they actually use him up and down the lineup, to see what he can bring in all situations.

One positive, Monahan at 55%. The rolling of 4 lines has as much to do with a B2B as anything else. Sutter is never a line 1, 2, 3, 4 guy; he just picks lines when he needs something or their last shift was impressive. Gotta fix the PP. Nice to see Coleman gets some reps there. The PK has been good of late, going 9 in a row now without being scored on? The end of the Kylington PK resulted in a goal, but it was a pick on Valimaki (?) that created room for the shot.

I had heard there was a 25 game limit thingy, so I'm guess sometime no later than Christmas. I really hope they do something with him in Stockton soon, so he can tale the learnings back to SJ and get them to the Memorial Cup finals.

Probably less skill than other years, but no passengers on the trip. Love the compete.

Point to Dube, so I win the poll with 4 seconds left. EDIT - I don't think that assist will hold. Looked like Dube to Mangiapane to Ras to Mangiapane Double Edit - I misread the poll. Was thinking just the Mangiapane line.

I'm hoping for a Mangiapan to Dube goal on the PP Dang, Dube didn't get a point from his FO win.

He was aiming for chest but Igor was playing a poor angle and left top half of net open. JK, it was a nice shot. Top corner. Noce to see goals from the 3rd line (or whatever line they refer to it as).

Should have gone with the under on Mangiapane's line.

Backlund with a textbook one on one to get a dirty goal

It was actually a subtle pick (from my view). NY player blocked a player from going to the point.

Seeing a lot worse hooks on the hands to what they called Kylington on.

Coleman. He's a Coooole Maaaan Da da da da daa daa daaaa. Coleman.

Ritchie is sooooo sloooow.

Pick play reaults in an open lane for the shooter.

Should have been a penalty on Lindgren. Is it open season on goalies?

The Rangers seem to have to do something almost criminal to actually get called for a penalty. Markstrom is looking composed. A 2nd period let down, but only part of the period.

Ball and Hrudey are not much better. You are seeing the birth of a 30 goal scorer.

A goal from the D? Tanev. Yikes. That's one of his 2 for the coming year.

Trouba x-xhecks Mangiapane. Dirty play. No calls on the initial play

We had 1/2 of the first, and got strung out on a shift near the end of the period. Gotta get some traffic in front of Shesterkin

Kylington takes out Reaves.

That's it, knock Fox on his socks.

Expecting a lot with him playing with Lucic and Lewis?
