Post-Game Talk: #28 - 12/6/19 | canadiens @ RANGERS

[SnowblindNYR]

Painful loss but I didn't think they played poorly and lost on a fluke. Hey, we shouldn't have won yesterday.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

I would leave Kakko on PP1 but take him off that first line.

I'd take him off there too, imo buch is a better option right now and Kakko would be better served being against teams 2nd ok unit.

 

[RGY]

Same ****ing play, stretch pass tip-in to the zone instead of coming up the ice with puck support, I hate that play so much it never ****ing works.

Should never be allowed. But it was by DQ and Ruff. There were so many similar aggressive plays in 1-1 tie game late that should not have been happening and a playoff team does not commit

 

[Irishguy42]

This game is going to start a big losing streak. Backbreakers like this usually do.

Good for the tank

 

[Tob]

This is a little excessive. Its one game for Strome. He has played well all year. Don’t even think he was bad at all. But ok

He's been very unnoticeable for a week and a half now. He's a good 3C. Struggling as a 1/2C right now with elite talent against elite talent.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

This game is going to start a big losing streak. Backbreakers like this usually do.

So do shitty teams

 

[Rempe73]

It always ends up going back to the system.
Never changes and makes me fkn nutz!

It might be the system or it might be that we don’t have many shoot-first players. Or the confidence was gone. No one wanted to be the one to take the shot and get it blocked, possibly giving away possession.

 

[RGY]

How? He plays in all situations. He has been part of a PK that has been good lately. He has still produced.

Completely disagree

 

[Rempe73]

So do ****ty teams

I can’t believe my eyes. An overreaction...from Reggie??

 

[Irishguy42]

Kakko has had a huge shyness of shooting the puck.

Kid needs to pull the trigger more in the worst way.

 

[Irishguy42]

This is a little excessive. Its one game for Strome. He has played well all year. Don’t even think he was bad at all. But ok

He's been mediocre/bad for the last few weeks tho.

 

[JHS]

Can anyone explain to me why the 4th line work was anywhere near the ice with a minute to go in the game? Anyone?

Literally horrible coaching that finally is obvious enough way for most of you all to see how Quinn makes mistakes that an NHL coach gets paid not to make.

 

[NickyLongLegz]

People are more mad at kakko than that horrendous defense for that goal against...

Maybe if the lines weren’t changed literally every period, players would start to develop chemistry together and will know better when to pass and when to shoot? Idk just a thought

 

[CasusBelli]

Good for the tank

The tank is evil.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Dump and don't chase. Rangers hockey.

I knew we forgot something...

 

[NYR]

Dump and don't chase. Rangers hockey.

Only way you can beat some teams with stingy defense is to dump and chase.
You aren't winning against those teams otherwise..

 

[bl02]

Well the Pack won 5-2. Nice game from Shesty and Rykov first assist so hopefully will be seeing some playoffs this season

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Kakko has had a huge shyness of shooting the puck.

Kid needs to pull the trigger more in the worst way.

He needs to stay around after practice and work on one timers, until he is able to let them rip he is always going to be deferring to Panarin and Zibanajad

 

[Rempe73]

1. Georgiev - another stellar game with some unbelievable saves
2. Smith - for establishing himself a legit 3rd line winger
3. DeAngelo - first goal was like 10-20% his fault, but he got much better as the game went on

HM: Skjei

 

[BroadwayStorm]

Lindgren caused that goal....unreal why he is trying to pass that puck from one side to the other repeatedly and it's not just him, they've all been looking for the long pass and ignoring the quick pass in front of them. They need to get that out of their head.

I think he does this the least out of all our defensemen. He is actually good at exiting the d zone safely. I think Tony and Adam do the long passing a lot more.

 

[will1066]

And that’s why this game is on DQ. That’s bad coaching. Get control of your team and get them focused. But then again I don’t know if he even preaching those things, playing for the point. That’s the concern

It's too much pond hockey

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Strome is coming back down to earth, as most expected.

Lindgren did not look great tonight. I maintain he is probably best served playing 3rd pairing minutes and not much else

And I’d probably take Lemieux off the top line. It was a fun experiment but let’s have a real first line please

 

[RGY]

It's too much pond hockey

The crazy thing is, with how the East is playing out this team could make the playoffs in the wild card. Making the playoffs would do wonders for the development of the youth to have that experience. But DQ gave away at least 1 point, probably 2 given who we could put out for 3-on-3.

Maddening

Of Kakko-Panarin-Zib? They've still yet to do anything of substance

 

[Embryo]

Celebration intensity of the decade from Rangers games

1. Derek Stepan G7 OT goal vs Washington
2. Nate Thompson 2-1 goal game 36 regular season
3. Ryan Callahan playoff clinching goal in Carolina

Marty St Louis Game 4 against the Habs?
