GDT: #10 - 11/02/21 | RANGERS @ canucks | 10:00 - MSG

How is he not sharp?

The expectation is so high that every goal is a "he should have stopped that. He usually gets those", and every rebound is "Shesty a little off".

 

[Lays]

I'm not going to start worrying until the trade deadline this season. If Lafreniere and Kakko come out slow out of the gate after a two week Olympic break, then I think Drury and Co need to have some honest and hard discussions about how to proceed over the summer. But now? Not worried one bit.

I am very worried about it and it’s reasonable to be. If Kakko and LaF were on the Devils we’d be shitting on them. But the fact that their ours, we’re willing to give them leeway. They’ve been complete embarrassments to this point.

 

[NikC]

Stop with the excuses

?? haha ok, you're right everyone sucks

 

[MysticLeviathan]

I find it fascinating that the 2nd period had been our bad period and the 3rd period had been good yet tonight was the opposite

 

[Lays]

?? haha ok, you're right everyone sucks

That’s exactly right.

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

What have I said that was wrong? LaF has legit been one of the worst 1st overalls in history.

McKinnon had 38 points in his 2nd season, Joe Thornton had 41 points. It's not hopeless yet.

 

[17futurecap]

Fox, very nice.

 

[Loff]

Cash it

 

[RangersFan]

Shoot on this PP FFS

 

[Kravtsov420]

This team is Fox and shesty, that’s it.

We are living in hell. That could only explain getting a generational goalie succeeded by another possible generation goalie and watching them be the only ones that give a shit out there. Some sick shit

 

[Kovalev27]

How is he not sharp?

doesnt know where the puck is on multiple shots it’s hitting him and he’s struggling to find it. Couple have gone thru him just not as sharp.

 

[Black Aces]

vancouver whines when they take a legit penalty despite getting 6 PPs

 

[egelband]

Miracle

 

[CLW]

It's hard to believe but hockey Gallant is actually worse than under Quinn

I thought the team would be much better organized than this. The top three lines haven't worked at all so far, it's mostly individual brilliance (Igor, Fox) and lucky bounces that keeps the points rolling in

 

[Megustaelhockey]

?? haha ok, you're right everyone sucks

There's a lot of Lafrenière trashing (and a lot of it valid), but it's almost exclusively from fan bases or media outlets that get hot from seeing the Rangers fail. It's a shame when it originates from our own fan base.

They'll be rioting in the streets soon.

 

[Rempe73]

Did Panarin have vodka before the 3rd period?

 

[will1066]

some fancy shit there

 

[Kane One]

Didnt turn into anything, but Fox keeping the puck in the zone is a thing of beauty

 

[rdhstlr23]

IMO, I think it’s wild that people have zero concerns over Kaapo Kakko. He has shown zero ability to produce. Yet, everyone keeps saying “he’s young. He’s getting better. It’ll come.” Those are nothing but hopes and wishes.

 

[Lays]

McKinnon had 38 points in his 2nd season, Joe Thornton had 41 points. It's not hopeless yet.

MacKinnon had 38 points in 64 games. Thornton’s 41 points are likely more than LaF or Kakko will score this season. Neither Mack or Thornton had a player as good as Zib or Panarin to play with

I’m not worried either. It’s just frustrating, these kids should be dominating. Maybe it’s Galants system? Even Panarin hasn’t looked that great so far, although he’s been producing

 

[17futurecap]

Strong to the net from Fil

 

[MysticLeviathan]

have to cash in on this 5 on 3. absolute must

 

[RangersFan]

SHOOT THE PUCK ON THIS 5 ON 3 FFS
