With Center Ice? That would be far too logical I guess. I must've gotten a new package here recently that took this SEP out, but $5 a month is nothing when we're already paying $150+...lol

Nah that you wouldn't have to get NHLN separate from the other sports networks

So I guess that's why it wasn't there because the new package didn't have the SEP in it - did you choose to not have that package in there or was it something you didn't know about?

Naw, this is all news to me really. I got the SEP and faster internet for $8 after deleting Hbo. This will be for the better.

Since I rarely even get a pick in these days, I'll take Simmonds. Nobody is hotter right now at dumping the puck in the net.

I see

HBO isn't really that necessary - there are so many channels and I don't know how people have time to watch all of them haha

 

[Maverick426h]

Yes, I have Netflix AND Amazon prime now. No real need for HBO.

 

[Maverick426h]

Despite the loss of Couturier, this remains an enormous game for us. I hope we keep it rolling and stay truly competitive. A regulation win here puts us in a really nice spot.

Obligatory "Stop wearing our third jerseys" post.

 

[Maverick426h]

I'm adding Steve Mason to my fantasy roster here last second for some good karma.

 

[wbon22]

Too many turnovers . . . Can't make it so easy for the Rangers

 

[Maverick426h]

Simmonds takes a cheapshot butt end of a stick to his mouth hole. I hope he gets mad and transitions this into a huge hit and a couple goals.

 

[Maverick426h]

Well, he may have just gotten some revenge...

 

[wbon22]

WTF...Simmonds get's a match penalty??!!??
Insane

 

[wbon22]

Hakstol is fuming. and rightfully so

 

[Maverick426h]

This is some serious fucking bullshit.

McDonagh just viciously crosschecked Simmonds in the head and Simmonds got the match penalty for retaliating....

 

[Maverick426h]

It should've been a match penalty for McDonagh and two to Simmonds for roughing.

 

[wbon22]

I hate national games with the Rangers. It always has the feel of the league trying to help the Rangers.
Simmonds deserved a penalty. BUT not a 5 minute match. Just absurd

 

[wbon22]

we are up to three stick penalty no calls against the Rangers just in the 4 on 4.

 

[Maverick426h]

Finally a fucking power play. We are all over them as of late. This is the chance to go up 1-0. Unfortunately, Simmonds can't score the goal...

 

[Maverick426h]

At absolute worst for us, I think McDonagh gets a double minor for crosschecking and Simmonds gets two for slashing and two for crosschecking, which evens everything. Instead, they essentially kicked Simmonds from the game and gave the Rangers a one minute power play.

They also completely missed Moore giving Simmonds a cheapshot butt end of the stick to the chops earlier that may have been a double minor.

I can't blame Wayne at all for being seriously pissed off. He got screwed here big time. I hope McDonagh has a fucking concussion.
