Post-Game Talk: 39 Florida

[SnowblindNYR]

That was just a bad performance from everyone not named Igor, Filip, Will and Kaapo. Brutal.

Mika again atrocious. Guy is afraid of contact, loses every board battle, isn’t aggressive with or without the puck and is kind of just lolly gagging all night. The nerve to complain about his ice time and act like he’s playing poorly bc he’s not getting the ice time is ridiculous. Some leader he is.

He complained about his ice time? That's Georgiev level disgusting, he can f*** right off.

I still think you give the Captaincy to Rempe if he gives Mika a wedgie.

At least it's not 9!

When did Lindgren come back???

I hear ya man, but it’s early and they have pretty much the entire regular season to figure any issues out. Right now, the red hot teams in the league are going to lose some fire , it’s very hard to have a consistent run in an 82 game season.

You just don't lose like this. You just don't. This wasn't a few bad bounces going in and the score ending up lopsided. They literally played 0 good minutes. And the same problem they saw in the postseason, they can't play against a forecheck. And they're not the f***ing 22 Avs that can just outskill everyone. Panarin is a f***ing problem. He cannot handle these teams. He's our Aaron Judge.

Last Mika fan left on earth

I’m sure he’d change his mind if he took off the glasses.

One of the shittier regular season games I have ever seen lol

Oh well. I can't bring myself to get that mad on October 29th. Onward.

This is the type of game is why on May 19th they'll be sitting home.

You know what? This is very funny. Thank you for contributing this funny post.

Never forget that I can delete your account.

i was straight up ridiculed this summer for making the point that the player who plays a style of game that we need to embody to win in the playoffs is kakko.

he plays a tough, physical possession style below the dots that wears down the opponent and is defensively responsible.

y'all insisted he couldn't be offensively productive but ignored that he was playing with nick bonino, with jonny brodzinsky.

now you're seeing what an extended opportunity with talented linemates can do for a players confidence, production, and overall game.

he's 24. this is not the guy you trade. if you want to throw him away for pennies, you just don't understand the game you're watching.

I never thought i'd say this, but Smith is being wasted with Zib and Kreider right now.

The issues are well known - the Rangers just don't want to admit to them, which is a root issue in its own right.

 

[Peltz]

And Miller.

And Lavy.

And Drury.

And Gorton.

And Dolan.

And why not Tony DeAngelo while we're at it? - f*** that guy.

back to the whole team sucking because there's two whole defensive pairs that cant move the puck. people want to shit on Lindgren which is fair, he's awful, but maybe we should try and get Gus back because he's the only D partner so far that can make Schneider look like an NHL player.

 

[mike14]

the Mika line was very much the 3rd line in terms of TOI 5v5 which is good, but it may be time to try and shake up a few other things a swell

They decided they hate Jones for no reason.

We've been shitty since Lindgren came back, which tracks, but that's also when Jones stopped getting regular time.

 

[FIRE DRURY]

3 shit games in a row. Smelling their own farts too much after dominating an awful Habs who just gave up 8 to f***ing Seattle.

November malaise is here early, maybe they'll start playing well after New Years

I’m saying it’s along season. You’re going to see stretches of good and bad. Every team has these stretches. We’re 6-2-1. Calm your tits.

yup, it's been a massive downgrade.

 

[80shockeywasbuns]

Chytil Kakko and Cuylle were more of a threat with 3 minutes to go than the 6v5 to close out the game. Imagine if they were rewarded for their play all game/season with….the extra skater at the end. Maybe reward effort and ability and not the past.

that was such a joke lol. Laviolette such a p***y. I wouldve called the timeout just to make sure theyd get the empty net shift

 

[Peltz]

This team ain't it. Sorry to say it but this core is trash and I don't think Lafreniere, Fox, and Shesterkin are building blocks that will win us a cup. We'll all be long dead before we win shit. This is not even close to a cup caliber team.

I can always count on you not to overreact and bring balanced perspective.

Problem is it's still a continuation of last season, post-season.

So that’s where the issues come in. The Chytil line has been amazing, do you really wanna break them up? The Panarin line has been good too and has played together for a long time. You run the risk of having your top 9 go cold at the same time by mixing things up, even though we all know Mika and Kreider are invisible 5 on 5. At least we know what matching Halloween costumes they’re gonna wear on Thursday.

I'm seriously tired of knowing that all of my teams are not good enough in October every year. No cup contender looks like this ever. I don't care that there are 82 games. Sorry if I'm being repetitive but this team's ceiling is 100% not winning the cup, I don't know what it'll be. Maybe we'll get lucky and get a shit opponent in the first round and win. Maybe we'll even get 110 points again because there's just so much shit in this league. But a cup win ain't happening. Watching them now is empty calories.
