GDT: #4 - 10/11/18 | sharks @ RANGERS | 7:00 - MSG

[GoAwayPanarin]

How do you go from 1 on 1 to a 3 on 1 against in five seconds

Staal took forever to change and the untouchable future captain fell asleep.

 

[DanielBrassard]

I know ADA got caught deep but how many times does Staal need to give up an odd man rush before he sits?

 

[Tob]

we could easily have 4 or 5 goals with very slight tweaks

helps san jose is completely sleepwalking

We never finish our chances. Every night the MSG crew says "OH BOY, we could be in a 5-1 game here but we're getting some great goaltending."

 

[Harbour Dog]

All of our games have had A+ opportunities at both ends. If we were finishing better, we would be 1-2 or 2-1 now.

 

[Maliks PlusMinus]

Good response to that goal against, but we can't keep giving up such good chances.

 

[mike14]

Have watched a fair amount of other hockey to start this season and there seems to be a real emphasis around the league to not give up the puck that doesn't seem as prevalent with the Rangers. Whether its holding into the puck in the D-zone until there's a pass option rather than throwing it down the ice, or not taking shots like Kreider's when its not a good scoring chance, we just don't seem to value puck possession like other teams do...

 

[The Crypto Guy]

passed it into spooners skates on that 2 on 1? what game are YOU watching?

You realize that there are players blocking passing lanes right...?

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Still think that was a horrible shot by kreider if he wanted to end his shift just dump it in

 

[Crease]

I mean, there are like maybe three 20-goal scorers on this roster so...

you forget the two barely missed tap ins on rushes in the 1st? one deflected a little away, the other Names just missed on

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Claessons looked good

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

We’re playing very low energy Jeb Bush

 

[effen]

You realize that there are players blocking passing lanes right...?

you're acting like the saucer pass isn't a thing.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Staal just getting abused out there

We whiff on those nightly though.

bench Skjei

embarassing

 

[mike14]

Can't be too much longer before Staal spends a night or two in the press box.

KZB need to lift

 

[Edge]

If this is how he looks as a “raw” player, holy ****.

One of the things I try to really focus on is how a young player adapts and evolves. It’s not just enough to be skilled.

Howden is a kid who demonstrated what I like to see. Chytil has done that as well. Kravtsov is doing that now, as is Keane.

No other prospects in the organization have demonstrated that ability to quite the extent of those 4. Not to say they are doing anything wrong, or performing badly. But those 4 have caught my attention the most over the last year.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Tough night for Brody Shay

 

[Allan92]

Here's to the first "and Lundqvist has lost his stick" of 2018.

It genuinely wouldn't be a rangers game without it

 

[I Eat Crow]

The Rangers need at least two top 5 picks if they can't sign Karlsson this summer. A 1C and 1D. This draft looks rife with future 1C's, but the top flight defenseman is going to be very hard to come by.

 

[NYR]

I'm getting tired of hearing this or that player "got caught" .
If you're playing in the tight 5 man formation that Quinn is looking to play then there has to be a rotation.
If ADA goes in deep, a fwd needs to get back and cover his position.
Players need to recognize and shift.
It's not rocket science..

 

[bl02]

Don't mean to derail thread but was Howden considered a strong skater as a prospect? He looks deceivingly quick
