It's a symptom of getting outplayed. They had zero business being up 3-0 in this game.

You're right. They didn't. Doesn't change the fact that they were with twenty minutes to play.

 

[Tob]

A lot of positives tonight though. Marc Staal as Bobby Orr and vintage Lundqvist couldn't pull out a win with a 1 in 4, 25%, gotta stop the damn puck kind of PDO. The tank is just beginning. Hopefully we'll have a strong middle of the season with a .333 point percentage.

 

[Machinehead]

Kreider scored and they got everything they deserved.

Would have been a good night if they didn't get slapped with a point 1)they didn't deserve 2)shouldn't exist.

 

[TheDirtyH]

Howden hasnt been the same since he got rocked.

which time

 

[bl02]

Damn straight. Then get me another high end winger. Is it too much to ask for both Dach and Podkolzin?

Hey you never know we got to studs in Kravtsov and Miller so how about Dach and Soderstrom (since Byram will be gone) or Podkolzin and Soderstrom. JG has to find a way to just give us one more middle to late teens first rounder. Will be hard as f*** but hope he can. If Tampa wins the cup we can have another three first rounders. Maybe Kaliyev drops to 31...ok I will stop dreaming.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

The game-tying goal is on him. He controls the rebound and we win.

That’s uh, not correct.

It’s not like he flubbed a dump in, he barely stopped a hard shot and the rebound went to a guy who had two Rangers on him yet nobody actually guarding him. Plays like that happen all the time with the back checker preventing any chance there. That goal is on the back checker I think it was Chytil.

 

[Machinehead]

I still think this forward corps will be serviceable very soon if things shake out.

The defense needs to be nuked and completely re-materialized like the god damn big bang.

 

[Jayan]

Bench Smith

Poor Bench.

Would McDonald's have him?

They would go bankrupt.

We need to send Smith to the minors again.

Poor Hartford.

Fire Brendan Smith into the sun.

What have the sun ever done to you?

 

[bl02]

The difference between a contender (the Jets) and the Rangers is stark. Rangers have some serious development to do.

The Jets took forever and a boatload of first round picks to get here while we were trading them like m&m candies. If JG can continue what he is doing hopefully two more years and we can compete with these guys

 

[Ghost of jas]

Imagine him playing with an actual first line player? Like scheifele gets to play with guys like wheeler Laine ehlers Connor meanwhile Mika plays with fast namestnikov and Jimmy Vesey lol

This is what a rebuild looks like unfortunately. No shit this team is nowhere near the talent on display in Winnipeg. Zibanejad, Kreider, Chytil and Kravtsov, that’s what Gorton is building on. Andersson and Howden are 3rd liners in that equation. The defense is even farther away. People need to be reminded of how early the Rangers are into this process.

 

[Crease]

A bunch of Ivan Dragos over there in Wpg.

They shoot the puck like "I must break you."

Winnepeg has like eight guys who are genuinely frustrated when they go a game without scoring.

The Rangers have 20 guys who call their Mom when they get an assist.

 

[nevesis]

That’s uh, not correct.

I give you kudos to trying to help those out there who struggle with understanding the game at the most basic level.

 

[bl02]

Somebody out of the playoffs would have to be dumb enough to trade us a first for that to happen.

This is true or to incredibly get lucky with a team that is close to making playoffs and then drops like a rock. As we saw last year its very hard to obtain say top 10/15 pick in first rounder via in season trade.

 

[Machinehead]

Giannone: "What changed the momentum?"

Hank: "What game were you watching?"

 

[Kovalev27]

I’m sorry but I have no idea how any watches Lias Andersson and goes “man great pick at 7 especially considering we are desperate for high end talent. That kid has all the tools to be a 60 plus point player in his prime”.

The kid has zero tools zero. We just can not afford to not get game breaking talent drafting in the top 7 picks again. Cannot do it. We’re going to have that chance again this summer and I’m terrified at what we might do.

I’m sorry I don’t want to keep bringing it up but I can’t get over it. He shows nothing that makes you go yeah I see it. He just has to put it all together. He doesn’t have the skills the size the skating to actually put together.

That’s...something lol

 

[Killem Dafoe]

This defense gives me agita

Lemme tell you a couple of three things: If we don't fix this defense, we're all in for a long year of agita.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Left the game after the second, said to myself on the way out “they better not get a loser point”

Good to know I can see the future

 

[Ghost of jas]

Give them the credit for getting Schiefele and Trouba when teams like Edmonton were screwing up getting 1st overall.

 

[bl02]

Howden hasn't looked the same minus Vesey.

f***ing boneheaded move to split them up. Dumb!

 

[Jayan]

It sure is painful to be a Rangers fan right now.

I wish this season was over now so that we could look forward to a draft with whatever extra picks we get for Hayes, Zucc, Strome, McQuaid and Namestikov

 

[Machinehead]

That draft kind of...wasn't good. I maintain that the best player taken after Andersson was Chytil.

If we f*** this draft up, which is absolutely loaded, that's a problem.

 

[Kovalev27]

This made me literally laugh well done

ADA is only defenseman on this team I have any interest in having in 2021.

It was a weak draft for high end talent. Half this board clamors for Casey M but he is hot garbage. Pick was in no mans land based on what happened 1-6.

 

[Boreal]

It's a pleasure every time I get to watch the Jets skate in New York City, at Madison Square Garden no less. It's something I figured I'd never see again. You guys are all class, and the moniker the best fans in sports is well-deserved. Knowledgeable and passionate. It always brings a smile to my face to see Winnipeg up there on the same marquee as NYC.

Zibanejad is a really good player. Good luck with your season, however you wish it to turn out. Cheers.
