GDT: 11/6/19 | #13 red wings @ RANGERS - 8:00pm NBCSN

[Siddi]

Quinn is officially dead to me.

 

[MyLoveIsBlue]

 

[Gardner McKay]

A slight dip is enough to bench Lias?

And you want to put Staal in so badly that you scratch a rookie that has been playing really well?

Come on DQ.

 

[MyLoveIsBlue]

 

[Mike in Houston]

Why are we melting down? It ain't like we're winning tonight anyway. Jimmy Howard is in goal. He's always a superhero at the Garden.

[HatTrick Swayze]

Didn’t he literally preach “meritocracy” a week ago? Then basically says “no one deserves to sit but I have to defer to getting Staal in”? Horrible communication.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Well, so much for our 67% win percentage. Time to insert the guy that can't skate anymore back into the lineup, because we lost one.

The predictability does not numb the pain.

I wish we would just send Lias to Hartford so he can get to play some meaningful minutes. It really does seem like we just aren't going to try to get any more out of him this season.

 

[Crease]

Either Quinn or Andersson will still be with the Rangers in two years, but not both.

 

[LeetchisGod]

This is just further evidence that Quinn has a long way to go to be a quality NHL coach. The fact that we won a couple of games changes nothing. Look at what Trotz is getting out of a very mediocre Islanders roster.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Quinn’s decisions at this point are just not defendable. Lias had an average game, as did most of the team, so lets sit him. This organization has a perfect rebuild sitting on a platter that the coaching staff on both teams is single handedly f***ing around with.

How about sending a real message and benching Kreider’s lazy ass who only shows up for 5 minutes of his 17-18 minutes of ice time?

 

[Leonardo87]

Is Steve Yzerman playing tonight?

 

[Fitzy]

I'm not typically quick to jump on the "Fire the coach" bandwagon, but this is pretty silly stuff from Quinn.

 

[bl02]

I fear for Chytil now. If he has another down game or two I have no doubt he will be back in Hartford.

 

[bl02]

No Mika, no Lindgren no Lias tonight. Yay

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

So what are the odds McIlrath tries to decapitate someone tonight? Kreider/Lemieux my picks.

 

[Kiekura]

Guys relax. Breadman 2 goals, Kakko 2 goals and Fox with one.

King will only allow two goals behind him.

 

[Leonardo87]

 

[ZiGOODejad]

I would have sat Skjei and maybe Lemieux I guess to Quinn Lias is an obvious choice.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

At this point I wouldn’t blame Lias if he requests a trade. They’re ruining his development.

 

[will1066]

Expect big tme games from Kris Draper, Chris Osgood, Marty Lapointe, and Kirk Maltby.

 

[GAGLine]

see now theres the quinn we love.

when asked during his presser after getting blowout by Ottawa the other night, Quinn had this to say

"we need to get marc staal back in"

then when pressed by the questioner as to why staal needed to play, he was very short with is answer

"because we need him and hes a good player" ??? really

what kind of message are we sending lindgren ? you are a young kid so you dont matter ?

quinn right back to bozo the clown status with me. coach doofus and his side kick lindy ruff.

You guys read way, way too much into these things.

Yes, Lindgren doesn't matter because Quinn chose to sit him for a game. FFS people, get a grip on reality.

 

[Rongomania]

At this point I wouldn’t blame Lias if he requests a trade. They’re ruining his development.

But.. but Brett 'Light the universe on fire' Howden stays and probably gets more mins.

F*** me dude.
