OFFICIAL GDT: Rangers at PENS 3/16/13

[Rylan]

Beau is dirty....wow.

Every hockey player is dirty.

[Rocco]

It hasn't scored today, but the PP has been less obnoxious than in past games.

[Shakes]

I think Nash did that just to see where the bar is with this crew.

[DontToewsMeBro]

I'm not convinced that the mythical Iginla acquisition would improve the first line.

But maybe the 3rd.

Certainly.
But those are two very different rationales for said mythical move.

Isn't the rationale to make the team better? I don't see how adding a leader, veteran, and top-line talent doesn't accomplish that. I personally don't think he's worth mortgaging the future for, but he would probably make the current team better.

[tfrizz]

It hasn't scored today, but the PP has been less obnoxious than in past games.

Agreed. They re getting estsblished and moving the puck well.

Also, is it just me or does Niskanen get like 99% of his shots through? It seems like every time he shoots one it's eitheron nnet or gets behind the goal line.

[murphydump55]

Beau is dirty....wow.

Every hockey player is dirty.

dirty good....not dirty

[Rylan]

Beau is dirty....wow.

Every hockey player is dirty.

dirty good....not dirty

fair enough. I was confused cause I didn't see him doing anything "dirty" but its something I hate when people claim certain players are dirty as if no one else is.

[NashvilleCat]

Now that we have approval to critique the officiating I'll have to ask how that trip wasn't called.

[Rocco]

Orpik nearly ended Nash.

[Digitalgypsy66]

Bad ice is bad.

[brwi]

Really liking this game. Keeping it simple again and playing some conscientious team D all-around in another game. This is WINNING hockey.

[MarioLives]

Man this is too close for comfort. Should have at least a 2 goal cushion

[JoseCuervo]

Refs need to realize that their job is to call penalties and enforce the rules, not to control the flow or the the competition of a game.

but hey, it's been going on forever in the nhl

[Gaucho]

Bad ice is bad.

Will they ever fix it? Not like a hack team like the Penguins could use some good ice.

[MRandall25]

Rick Nash is lazy.

[Shakes]

Hey, do you guys know anything about J.T. Miller and a Pittsburgh connection?

[Rocco]

Someone let me know when the 3rd period starts.

[jprolley]

orpik has been much beter today. he and martin are playing great

[offsides]

Hey, do you guys know anything about J.T. Miller and a Pittsburgh connection?

According to wiki:

"He played for several teams from age 5 through 12 before ending up with the Pittsburgh Hornets from age 12 to age 16"

[GDR]

I've come to accept any 2nd period the Penguins don't get outscored is a good one

[PghSkins]

LET'S GO PENS!!!

Should have thrown the on that. Just being a smart*** because the Pittsburgh feed is talking this up.

Good looking out though.
