In all seriousness hopefully we will see DeAngelo next game - I really missed him on the ice, but since it was a game opening night - Quinn probably rely on their veteran present.

I re-watched that play over and over......I swear I feel like it wasn't that bad of a screen of Hank. He really should have seen/saved it. Hank has a tendency to do that to his d.....u know.

Yeah, that contract is terrible. Fortunately cap space shouldn't matter while he's on the books.
I mean, his play on the ice aside, the guy is a huge Bieber fan. The hell was Gorton thinking?

One more thing to ponder......does anyone here feel like Nashville played their "A" game.......I don't.

Jimmy Easy to defend
Staal was the worst player on the ice. And I think we all expected that. And if that’s the case for all 82 were in better shape than we thought.
Zucc absolutely brain dead tonight. He jumped on to be the 7th man. He shot when the situation called for a pass and vice versa.
Vesey couldn’t shoot but learned how to pass. I’m not sure if this will last, he showed up everytime we’ve played Nashville.
Pionk struggled with their size and giving them too much space.
ADA should play next game.
Bold prediction: Chytil will be better than Hayes before the calendar year is out.

There were some things from a structure perspective that I liked and think they'll improve on moving forward:
Collapsing guys down low helps clean up second chances and helps kickstart transition going the other way with short breakouts. Even if there weren't outlets open, they reset the play rather than forcing it. That being said, there was pretty poor execution on breakouts, which I think will get cleaned up with time. This also could be a by-product of Nashville being an incredible defensive team in transition, so struggling to move the puck against them isn't abnormal.
In the offensive end, I think they need a lot of work and need to stop trying to overpass laterally (LOOKING AT YOU, ZUCC). They also need to be careful about overcommitting and being too aggressive because Nashville caught on in the 2nd period and were able to start generating a lot of odd-man rushes.
The result sucks, but I like where the process is going. They came out flat, but Quinn got them to get skating and keep pace with one of the best in the league. Saturday should be a win for us against a bad Sabres team.

It’s like the Soylent Green ending, but everyone knows already and wonders why you are all worked up about it.

Based and Rangerspilled.
Top line, not very good.
Vesey should have had a hat-trick, but put up a goose egg. Still sucks imo.
Henrik was the best player on the ice.

Mr. Preachy
And the award for "First to Turn On David Quinn" goes to...
Here is the thing, and it's the thing he has done consistently since he was on the team: he passes.
Valy has talked about this 10000x, pass east west and the chance of a goal doubles. He passes a lot. But, he still has been at the top of the team on SOG and MS the last seasons. Still everyone says he never does. He had 4 tonight.
That said, he is not a goal scorer, he is a passer, a playmaker.
Go look at his points, like 80% are primary points.

Not sour grapes or even comparing them to the Rangers, but Nashville needs to make a trade or two or they are going to fart out their window too.
You and the board can be fine with it all you want.
I, however am not but I guess I'll just have to accept this train wreck for now..
