McD 30 pts in 57 games, and I was laughed at when I said he would at least double MDZ in points this year
by whom?.... I got laughed at when I said McD could be close to Leetch.....of course, the comment was taken wrong but I was trying to stress that this kid had a LOT of offensive potential. I hitnk it was very late two seasons ago that I said this.
Solid win Blueshirts : ) Some Del Zotto-the-Predator stats (columns are all screwed up but summed up): 1 assist, 6 shots, +2 plus/minus after 5 games): Date - Vs - G - A- P - +/- Pim/PP/SH/S/Shift/TOI Feb 1 @ St.L -0 - 0 - 0 - -1 0 / 0 / - / 2 / 26 / 20:23 Jan 31 - NJD - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 / 0 / -/ 0 / 22 / 17:25 Jan 28 @ WPG-0 - 1 - 1 - +2 -0 / 0 / 0 / 1 / 27 / 17:39 Jan 26 @ EDM-0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 / 0 / 0 / 2 / 25 / 18:38 Jan 24 @ CGY - 0 - 0 - 0 +1 / 0 / 0 / 0 / 1 / 24 / 18:20 Had his breakout game at Winnepeg with an assist and a +2 for the game.
He's still not going to be the pure offensive talent that Leetch was, but I'm pretty happy with Ryan McDonagh being the next Ryan McDonagh. He's a stud all on his own. All those years that we were told Staal's offensive side would come around, I envisioned a little of what I see with McD. Love their d-men though. Stralman included. He proved his value in the playoffs last year and hasn't been a disappointment since.
Staal actually going to the net now, had a great pass to Cally in front, doing it more every game, right now McD is our best player
great point about the 5-3 with Hank by the way, MR. I made a mental note myself that had Colorado scored there, maybe the game shifts.
Pat Leonard‏@PLeonardNYDN·1h Cam Talbot starting tonight for #NYR, then Lundqvist will get Friday night's game in Pittsburgh
Hey Jake, your "location" is listed as Edmonton?......I smell a rat, is this a set up? : ) I noticed the "worst team" Oilers have suddenly won 4 of their last 5 and that while they've averaged giving up 47 shots on goal the last three games (!), their 'mask' Scriven's been standing on his head lately (stopping 96/100 shots).
No man. They gave up 60 shots in one of those wins, and just got clearly outplayed by Buffalo. I hate this piece of shit team and everyone associated with it. Management is so incompetent I MISS SATHER.
