The Rangers were supposed to be going to West Point tomorrow for the remainder of their camp before traveling to Chicago for Wednesday's game, but the trip has been canceled due to weather. The team was supposed to do a bunch of outdoor "team building" activities, but they decided to cancel since all the rain lately has left the whole place muddy. Because, I guess, hockey players can't get a little dirty?

Meanwhile, Tanner Glass is undergoing an MRI on his foot today.

Megna and Diaz both cleared waivers (as did everybody else in the league yesterday), so they have been sent down to Hartford. Assuming Diaz agrees to go to the AHL, I'm glad we managed to hold onto everybody. We've got some pretty solid depth to pull from if necessary at all positions this year, probably better than we have had over the last few seasons.

Going to see Nylander and Brown's final audition live tonight. I know they could probably benefit from more time in the minors, but fuck it, let the kids play.

Your coach is Babs, that's not going to happen.

Hm :/

Mike Babcock on why Nylander and Brown won't play tonight: "I want to look at the other guys."

LOL, Babs gonna Babs

 

[CreeperBlocks]

MTL's lineup for tonight:


Eller-Galchenyuk-Kassian
Pacioretty-Plekanec-Gallagher
Flash-DD-Weise
DLR-Mitchell-DSP

Pateryn-Beaulieu
Emelin-Gilbert
Petry-Tinordi

Torkaski
The Condom

 

[CrazedArabMan]

Our prospects vs a semi-filled Leafs lineup, Go Prospects!

 

[Gunstar Ikari]

I hope that Nashville figures out how to hold a lead. It was frustrating watching them crap out in the 2nd and/or 3rd constantly last season and it eventually caused their playoff exit.

That, and get their special teams in order because good grief. 25th in power play goals? C'mon, son.

 

[lamaroo]

For everyone signing up for the fantasy leagues when would you like to do the drafts? Would Sunday afternoon/evening work?

Sunday would work for me. Any other day would be fine I think as long as it's in the evening.

 

[Smiley90]

Sunday isn't great for me, I can do any day of the week aside from Friday and Tuesday not before 4:30pm PST.

 

[Pikma]

Monday would be perfect for me but any other day of the week is ok too.

 

[Smiley90]

How have I not seen this gif before

that ankle-flip-magic

 

[Simon Belmont]

Shouldn't that be a penalty?

 

[Smiley90]

Shouldn't that be a penalty?

yes :lol

 

[Simon Belmont]

yes :lol

I'm all for a rule in the NHL that says if something looks impressive enough it'll get you out of a penalty.

That rule already exists!

 

[iLLmAtlc]

That rule already exists!

good canadian kid playing hard, hockey play

 

[Yawnier]

Flyers insider saying that we might see Luke Schenn on waivers in the next few days

What say you, flyers fans? Has he been that bad?

 

[Red_Man]

Hopefully tonight is the last time we see Tokarski play in a Habs jersey.

Let the age of Condom begin

Isn't his brother in the trade market as well??

 

[Red_Man]

Let the age of Condom begin

I'm ready

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Lol

 

[Simon Belmont]

I'm just going to post this picture here for safe keeping:

 

[Red_Man]

Mark Fraser is still an idiot. Shocker.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Apparently our defense pairings will look like this to start the season.

Francois Beauchemin - Erik Johnson
Brandon Gormley - Tyson Barrie
Nikita Zadorov - Brad Stuart
Nick Holden - Nate Guenin

Holden and Guenin together. Fuck. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

 

[Red_Man]

Put Tokarski on waivers tomorrow,thanks.

 

[Syrinx]

Noah Hanifin made the Hurricanes roster.

Haydn Fleury was sent back to Red Deer and Pesce, Slavin, McGinn, and Ryan were sent to Charlotte.

Scratched together.

 

[lamaroo]

lmao, that stick probably distracted the goalie

Tokarski is the worst

 

[Ether_Snake]

Oh look who is on the ice when Habs score, rhymes with titty.

edit: ugh...

 

[Red_Man]

Amazing how far Tokarski has fallen in such a short amount of time. He's just not capabale of handling the pressure that comes with playing in Montreal.

 

[Red_Man]

Patches just walked Karlsson like he was Phaneuf. Amazing.

 

[Syrinx]

Canes also extend Lack for two years, $5.5 mil.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

So I bought some of those Timmies Hockey cards and I got Subban in my first pack.


I hope I can get Dan Cleary

So far I got:

Zack Parise
The Hamburgler
Teddy Purcell
Darryl Sittler
Kyle Turris
And PK Subban

[Stuggernaut]

Bye Tokarski, no way he comes back next period...right?

 

[lamaroo]

Tokarski making an excellent case for the backup position

Spoiler

in St John's

 

[Red_Man]

Shots are 19-6 and score is 1-3, nice knowing you Dustin, enjoy St John's.

Bye Tokarski, no way he comes back next period...right?

They'll probably let him finish the game to try and redeem himself, but his job is gone. Condon might as well look up Montreal apartments during the intermission.

 

[apocalidiot]

That rule already exists!

Man, that was fucked up

Also, if anyone still wants to participate let me know!

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I think he's going to lose his job to Condon.

 

[Red_Man]

I think he just lost his job to Condon.
