POSTING

Is there something wrong with the team mentally that they just have to give up a goal 30 seconds in every god damn time?

>meme cam
stop trying to force this corner cam bullshit

How can you blame Lundqvist for that horrible defence?

Sid would've had that goal, Rust is doing great with defense and Letang too. Lmao I feel bad for the rags this was suppose to be "their" year with Shattenpentalty

Quite the shutout.

Forreal. We finally have a shift with some pressure at the end there but other than that it was more hot garbage.

fuck, got stuck at work and lost Phil's goal
also
>rags

reminder that swedes who arent /horny/ are not true swedes

TYB MURRAY

I read OP wrong, thought this was early NYI - NYR thread

thanks

It's not like the team looks absolutely horrible, there have been some bright spots. But the losses keep piling up 1-5 is a terrible start. Just looking at the upcoming games I wouldn't be surprised to see them 1-9 or 1-10

don't reply to the munkee

>>mfw Murray is playing like Lundpads circa 2014

who /McKegg/ here

disrespect my uma friend again and we will have words one on one do you understand?

t. Lundqvist

imo they should be better than have been. Their problems at center keep showing up every game and blowing leads. It's not that they are terrible, it's just they're mediocre. Rags got Shattenkirk and so far ... he hasn't really made an impact on the ice. I thought he would've been more explosive on offense

Shattenkirk looked great the first two games but hasn't done anything since.

Duchene when?

SCCCCCARRRRRRRRRRR


FUCKING WEEEWWWW LAD

SCCCCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

BASED HAGS

I fell for the meme that he would be their lead offensive player and so far I've been wrong. It's still early though, but this start for the Rags is ugly

Lundpaaaads

COOL EPIB BLOG SO GREAT POST MOAR

tldr you're fucking retarded

Shattys been fine. The entire team has been ass but blaming it on Shatty is wrong.

Bill won the fucking Hart trophy in my NHL 18 franchise mode lads.

He's a superstar

sounds quiet as fuck in there

They can feel our collective >rags

you should stop

based copypasta

t. Portugal

Still not sure if it's the coaching or players.

Didn't like that Cracknell pickup off waivers. It was clearly Lindy Ruff putting in a good word for the guy. AV already plays favorites with shit players, we don't need the assistant coach doing it as well.

no you're just cringe

>buchnevich is on the same line as cracknell

fuck off frycocks

Someone say Madison?

I think they should axe Vigneault, like you said he holds on to less than average players. He hasn't got the rags to the promise land, but then again I don't know who would replace them. Rags are also an old team, some new players, mostly vets or nearing the end of their primes

Am I being overly dramatic or has Malkin been pretty terrible (with minor exceptions) all season so far? Is he primed or am I just retarded

Only been a handful of games but we all know he’s capable of like 8 straight weeks grabbing 2 points a night

He's missed some defensive assignments, yeah. Allowed a 3 on 1 tonight and let a goal-scoring puck go through his skates on Saturday while he had Murray screened. Seems like he never has the same wingers on his line for more than two games, either

he went full geno mode in the losses for a few spans, he's fine. the lines keep switching and he gets extra covered and that's why the third line is producing so well. it's fine, the pens roll 3 goal scoring lines and the opposition can only shut down 1 and part of the other but goals come no matter what

Feel like I am overreacting since I know he is capable of so much. Maybe he's just trying to bounce back and having a rough start. I'm sure by 15th game of the season he will be back

There's a loooooong road stretch coming up and Russians feed off of hatred. He'll be fine.

he's had a bunch of dominating shifts so far, he doesn't have the goals yet because the pens spread the talent over 3 lines while he's a first line talent so he gets less good wingers. he'll get his don't worry, they give him way more offensive zone starts than defensive and the pens are the 2nd most penalized team so far so shit happens

when he's actually on the ice he looks great

>tfw no more ponytail.

...

I missed the first goal, is that from this game? Pretty poor on Hanks part.

yes. his blocker has been notably slow all game as well, another shot he saved with his bicep

Why do people think Murray is good? Desharnais has no angle and still puts it in easily.

i still don't understand how Lundpads didn't save that

high glove side is how you score on him, always has been. somehow he's never lost a playoff series with everyone knowing that

It was deflected.

Also 4 min pp :)

Could be the two Stanley Cups and outstanding save % over two rookie seasons.

4th liners chipping in

two fluky goals

>Buchnevic gets put on the fourth line for no reason
>Still scores

Yeah fuck you AV

bill's wrist wrist shot isn't just stupid fast, he also skates faster than most people so the angle changes faster than others but more importantly he can get full power while shooting on his off skate. he can get his shot off no matter where he is in stride and he tries to time it to get the goalie off in stance

he can simply get a great shot off very quickly and goalies can't watch his lead foot to wait for it

the ranger's score chant is the fucking worst thing in hockey. it's like 9/11 all over again every time i hear it.

it's 3rd worst after blackcocks and perds

>murray shitting the bed
>can't pull him because of that finnish fuck
>no fluery back up to clinch the save

fuck off pongs

ANOTHER ONE
