Post-Game Talk: #25- 03/11/21 | RANGERS @ boston | 7:00 - ESPN+ MSG2

[Rempe73]

The coach is a problem, but the real problem is the lack of real talent. Besides Fox and maybe Trouba, the defensive talent is horrendous and besides Panarin, there is no real threat in this forward crew. Talent is just not there!

Trouba is not talented whatsoever. I’m sorry. I’m REALLY trying to like him but he just can’t play good hockey consistently. And when he does play well, it’s 4 mil a year well, not 8 mil.

I still can't believe we got rid of Lundqvist, an all time Ranger great, more than capable to back up Shesterkin, for Georgiev. The most inconsistent goaltender we have had in a long time. Raanta, Talbot were miles ahead of him on the Rangers. The last time we had a goaltender play this poorly, and this is not a knock on him because I love him as an analyst, was Valiquette.

We lost Lundqvist. We didn't trade him, we didn't get any assets for him [probably could have gotten a 2nd round pick], and now whatever the return is when we inevitably do trade him will be for a bag of pucks. Disappointed in Georgiev.

Lundqvist was never going to be a backup.

 

[Kovalev27]

I’ve never been more disappointed by this team

so excited to finally watch us have a team full of top prospects and a couple of elite veteran forwards something we NEVR have and this is some of the worst hockey I’ve seen us play ever. I mean it ever. Miserable team to watch.

 

[TheBloodyNine]

What does georgijev playing like shit now have anything to do with the fact that ADA deserved to be gone lol

Uhh because regardless he wasn't wrong about criticizing his play and he's a baby if he can't take it. He should play better if he doesn't want to get chirped.

 

[will1066]

I think Rob Lowe would be better at this point. Literally.

Youngblood would have more goals than Laf and fought Ritchie AND Frederic

Let's be real, most people here thought he was after last season.

 

[bl02]

Great comparison. Seriously. I think this team’s mentality and leadership core is piss poor and mentally fragile. An absolute polar opposite to say the Boston leadership group.

And Boston is good but they aren't world beaters but look at the attitude that team brings to 95 percent of their games.
No Carlo tonight. They lost Chara and Krug. Yet they bring it.

 

[17futurecap]

Quinn loves saying first period goals against are back breakers.

 

[Machinehead]

The team's attitude comes from the coach. He crows about compete-level and doesn't enact it in any way.

He's AV without the offense.

 

[LokiDog]

Team Xanax. Such loser answers. Moral victories. Didn’t let it get ugly. Pathetic.

 

[smoneil]

These responses by Rangers players give off a troubling "I'm not gonna let it ruin my weekend" vibe.

Agreed. This is the kind of thing I worry about when I talk about teams with a losing culture. There's a world of difference between not letting a loss get in your head and not giving a f*** about fixing the problems at all. Last season, these guys were more towards the former. This year, especially lately, they seem to be drifting more and more towards the latter.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

I don’t think replacing the coach will fix all the issues but having one that is somewhat more competent would certainly be a step in the right direction haha

 

[will1066]

Uhh because regardless he wasn't wrong about criticizing his play and he's a baby if he can't take it. He should play better if he doesn't want to get chirped.

Let's just all admit DeAngelo acted out what we all were thinking after that botched handoff 3v3 OT

 

[Black Aces]

These responses by Rangers players give off a troubling "I'm not gonna let it ruin my weekend" vibe.

watching them this season are you surprised?

its obvious they dont care to play for this coach

 

[Rempe73]

We all know he's a dick. I don't give a frig who loves him. He's a crap teammate; wears out his welcome everywhere he goes. I know, it's everybody else's fault. Your defense of him says alot about you.

Dude I never gave a shit about his personality until everyone else did. You’re the dick for saying that with no evidence and assuming I’m a POS for defending him.

 

[Machinehead]

I'm not getting the whole "didn't let it get ugly" thing.

It got ugly. What do they think ugly is?

 

[CupSeeker]

Uhh because regardless he wasn't wrong about criticizing his play and he's a baby if he can't take it. He should play better if he doesn't want to get chirped.

He should get chirped, but that has nothing to do with Tony.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

I think Rob Lowe would be better at this point. Literally.

Or Nick Lowe. He’s not afraid to be cruel to be kind.

 

[bl02]

I see a guy like Petry play every night for 5.5 million and then you see Trouba at 8.5 million. Tells you all you need to know.

 

[Reggiet2]

Trouba is not talented whatsoever. I’m sorry. I’m REALLY trying to like him but he just can’t play good hockey consistently. And when he does play well, it’s 4 mil a year well, not 8 mil.

Exactly what I'm saying. this team is not very talented! How many teams would have Chilte(spelling) and Howden as their top 2 centers, that is simply horrible!!

 

[EEL]

We are so soft that Boston didn’t even bother bullying us! Gawd!

 

[Rempe73]

Exactly what I'm saying. this team is not very talented! How many teams would have Chilte(spelling) and Howden as their top 2 centers, that is simply horrible!!

Lol I love you, but you’re kind of a clown for that post

 

[NYSPORTS]

been reading about so many prospects who “played with men”

well, these are real men and this was another episode of MEN vs Boys

 

[Zats Muccarello]

I hope everyone is miserable in that locker and they all wake up mad tomorrow.

they honestly don’t seem like they care

 

[TheBloodyNine]

He should get chirped, but that has nothing to do with Tony.

So then you agree he did nothing wrong in that situation then, if he, as you just said, "should"?
