PrintNew York Rangers at Vancouver Canucks, Nov 3, 2009 7:00 PM PST
Andrew Raycroft is 4-3-1 with a .895 save percentage and 3.28 goals-against average in 10 career appearances against the Rangers. Henrik Lundqvist is 0-2 with a 5.65 GAA in two career appearances against the Canucks. … The Rangers haven't won in Vancouver since Oct. 1, 1997.
That is from CDC. They don't really mean all that much, but are eye-openers. What really matters to the Rangers is having Marian Gaborik in their lineup. The king of soft has 11 goals and 19 points in 13 games for the Rangers this season, as he has broken free of his defensive shackles in Minnesota and appears to be loving it in NY. That's all cute and stuff and gives me goose bumps, yadda yadda (I'm kidding). This was a huge risk for the Rangers to take a chance on this guy. If Gaborik can play 80 games this season, which could be asking for a lot, he could be a top 3 NHL scorer. Gaborik's health is more or less directly tied to the Rangers' success right now. On October 26, the Rangers beat the Coyotes 5-2. Gabby had 3 points. He then missed 2 games with a reported knee injury. The Rangers lost both games (the Islanders and Wild) and managed only 3 goals in those 2 losses. Gaborik returned the next game and scored the only goal in a 1-0 win over the Bruins. Yeah, they love him in New York. I hate him. Nudge nudge...Mitchell...his knee isn't 100% yet. Who's the guy setting up Marian? Vinnie "I never completely unpack" Prospal.
He has 4 goals and 14 assists in 15 games this season. Check out the Rangers stats here. They have some weapons there: Ales Kotalik, the rookie Michael Del Zotto, Sean Avery, but the scoring has dried up over the past few games. Hopefully it stays that way. The Canucks will have to play the same way they did against the Avalanche. If they shut down NY's top line I like their chances. It's just that they are facing another awesome goalie in King Henrik Lundqvist tonight, so they have to make his life hell and park in front of him. Lundqvist has an impressive 2.48 GAA and .920 save percentage in 13 games started this season.
Biggest thing though, get that Gaborik fella. Stay on him.

Botchford had a set of tweets that said Ehrhoff took the day off but will play. Schneider will be in as forward. And likely scratches are Rome and Bliznak.
So…yeah.

Great post to start this one off. I’d love to see a few big hits and Gabby on the wrong end of a TSN highlight tonight.
Go Canucks!
Or put Kes’s line out against them. Raymond has been better defensively this year, and his speed is better than Gabby’s.
Here’s hoping Mitchell saw the highlight of his old buddy nailing Kessel and is inspired to do the same.
But..yeah…you know a Torts team will play that offensive style….A game like the one against the Avs will go a long way.
vancitydan
Despite the fact that he played for Minnesota
I’ve always been of fan of gabby G. I was really disappointed when we didn’t end up signing him in the off-season. That being said, with the rate of injuries we’ve had it’s a forgone conclusion he’d be out right now.

;-)
Raycroft? If so, you are wrong. He is good to all big and small, and in his spare time rescues little girl’s kittens from trees.
I know its only two games, but we have owned this so called King the other guys have too.
If the Canucks play their game and keep it to the outside, I like our chances. The Rangers aren’t that defensive team they were with Renny…they’ll give the Canucks turnovers tonight.
4-2. Nucks.

Just listening to the 1040 commentary and how great it is for Drury to play the second line center with less pressure. The mofo gets paid north of 7mill. WTF.
Bieksa on the wing tonight. Woot!

No, I don’t need to equate other guys on other teams in completely different situations to Kessel. I’m not even saying it’s a bad trade for either side, just saying one season doesn’t make him a sure fire gem.

took a risk that they might have had somebody somewhat better than Kessel… but that’s going to take some serious luck on the B’s part.
B’s took a risk that they might get someone even as good as Kessel, and that’s going to take some luck too.
Or they move the picks for a proven commodity. There’s flexibility on the B’s end to fill in as needed if they don’t want to draft.

any proof of it now but I was sure at the time the leaf got a 3rd back, oh well, I’m sure it won’t be the difference in the deal.
To me the biggest risk they leaf took was due to Kessel’s injury, but the way he played tonight even after getting decked would put that at ease.
Yeah definitely helps calm some nerves to see him come back from the locker room. And hey he has at least 14 more years before those shoulder issues make him Demitra!

The biggest thing
that makes this dumb for the Bruins is that they were a contending team, poised to make a run for the cup, they’re not rebuilding, draft picks that may or may not pan out in 3-5+ years won’t do them any good while this supposed contender is assembled.
And not to many contenders turn around and trade away their leading goalscorer, is it any wonder they can’t score this year?
There is some merit to the T.O writers saying he has a target on his back no matter what. People are going to, unfairly I think, judge him based on how bad that pick is for them.
Right now…it looks pretty bad…see ya Taylor Hall

Yep
the odds have improved… so far… but still
IF the leaf finished last
and
IF they then win the lottery
and
IF the pick turns out to be a stud…
They are still only even… IF he’s one as good as Kessel…
IF the other pick/s turn out good too, then they win, but again, that’s a lot of ifs, certainly way less of a sure thing than Kessel already is.
Well if they finish last the chances are they win the lottery (any idea of the teams who have finished last who haven’t won the lottery? I don’t know) and then you just have to hope there isn’t a Daigle or Stefan sitting right there. I agree on that last one, the sure-fire stud is always a gamble.

Technically three. Second rounders aren’t anything to discard. I forget where I saw it, but someone ran a study over the past decade (or maybe longer) of picks and how many games they played and it turns out – outside of the first round – picks two, three and four are have relatively equal chance to play 200-300 NHL games over their career.
I’m rambling…point is yes, I see three chances (or 2.5 if you disagree) for one.

Gotta disagree KK. They did a much better job of minimizing chances against the Avs. Too many turnovers and giveaways in this one.
It’s a little sloppy on our end right now.. but the PK at the end was solid.

Probably not the best thing to give the Rangers a spark. They look pretty bad out there.

Avery did his job and he picked the dumbest player on the Canucks to goad. Can’t really argue with that.

You don't think so?
I do, esp if he thought it would spark the team.
He’s a tough prick, would be a handful even for Ryper, but I’d like to see Rick get those lefts flying.
Maybe we should give Luey the nickname “Faceplant”?

goalie statistics do not tell the whole story. The Canucks are playing very differently in front of Raycroft than they would Luongo.

Well hopefully he didn’t just ice it, throw a splint on a broken shin and jump out there. Hopefully he’s fine, just like Henrik who also went out there with after looking hurt and got the empty netter.

The Team 1040 guys just said that Mitchell probably just took a shot to the nether-regions that temporarily stunned him.
well I’d be acting the same way then and yelling to the trainer “I’ll be fine! Stop touching it!”

“Rypien is somewhere in the tunnel shadowboxing…”
Best comment of the year in my opinion. I read through the posts and that one drew an unscheduled burst of laughter from me. :)
As for the game, Vancouver is lookin GOOD. Raycroft is playin well, and while I can’t see him keepin it up quite this well, i’m confident that he can win consistently. Overall, after working late, this was a beauty game to relax to.
I saw him flying up the ice all night……and then getting his plays broken up. Let’s go D! Let’s go D!

Bieska
Was at the game, and AV was using the Wellfed, Bieska line against Gabs, with Bieksa almost shadowing Gaborik. Was quite effective till bieksa decided he needed a 12 min break. Nucks did the same thing with Rome and Kopitar against LA
Wow
Sorry I missed this one tonight. Was at a family dinner. In fact I was offered tix to the game and had to turn them down! From the highlights and reading all the posts here, an awesome night seems to have been had in Canuckland. Some of the most entertaining posting on NM yet… kudos to everyone in our growing community, and thanks as always to our hosts, Sean and Yankee.
