Rangers need to finish. Different season, same problem. And the Blue Jackets look like an offensive juggernaut whenever they enter the offensive zone. Gotta be better then that.
 
I've been really impressed with kreider, but his shot has looked pretty average at nhl level. As someone who hasn't seen much of his jnr career, questions about his shot seem legit

Actually his shot has looked extremely good. He has easily one of the hardest shots on the team and gets it off quick.

Hard shot that rarely misses the net. I have no problem with his shot, the goals will come with time. I just think he needs to work on going back hand at times to deke the goalie they play him straight up knowing what's coming, with time his hands and shot will be even better

The difference is they keep putting pressure offensively unlike previous years with Torts.

he has one of the best shots. I mean for god sakes he cant score every game. Also like i have said before he has had some bad luck hitting posts and even last night zuccarello got in teh way of a sure goal. Also he is much more dangerous when a good passer can set up a shot for him which zucc and stepan havent really done yet
 
PP unit 2 gives me a stomach ulcer

AV needs to put Hagelin on there, it may not work but it can't be worse.

I just refuse to believe that a player can be one of the better 5v5 scorers in the league but not be good enough to make even the 2nd unit.

At the very least he can improve the zone entries.
 
Bobrovsky is playing very well, so I wouldn't stress the finish too much. I would like to see more guys poking at the pads once he has made the first save.

Yeah, the goals will come, he has a terrific shot.

mmhm, Hank isn't the only great goalie in the league.
 
He has also been the best passer/set up guy IMO. To be fair as much as i love the line both stepan and zucc havent really given kreider any good set ups. Most of his chances he has to create of their own. If Zucc and stepan can start to do taht then that line will be unstoppable

Agreed. Kreiders forecheck and cycling ability along with crisp passes have made this line go. No one thought CK would be able to move the puck like this and with time the goals will come he's just alittle predictable when it comes to his shot but it's always on target & hard. If he works on deking and his hands he'll be close to an elite power forward

Is there such thing as giving a good goalie some credit? This team does need to finish but it's as if there's a piece of wood guarding the opposing crease. Bob is having a hell of a game and making acrobatic saves. Give it a rest.

Yeah it's accurate (and he releases it quickly), but especially when he gets in close he seems to have problems getting any power on it.

Don't think anyone ever said he had to score every game either...
