Post-Game Talk: #4 - 10/17/19 | RANGERS @ devils

I...uhh...actually agree.

I don't care if they lose at this point. It's just that there hasn't been any improvement on anything.

How do you know? It's been 4 games with 2 games in nearly 2 weeks. It's a work in progress with a lot of new players on the team. Can you give it 15-20 games to see what we have here? Geez.

 

[Leetch3]

its been nearly impossible to judge this team given the ridiculous schedule...the jets/giants play more games each week than we have. starting with tonight's game we start playing a real nhl schedule,

 

[CasusBelli]

Bwahahaha that can't be real

It’s the rand() function in Excel.

it's 4 games in with long breaks inbetween games. I mean I keep saying this but you can practice all week long but if you don't have gametime to put into play what you've been practicing then you're not just going to magically get better

 

[QJL]

My lineup for Friday after this spiraling debacle

Panarin - Zibanejad - Kakko
Kreider - Chytil - Buchnevich
Lemieux - Andersson - Strome
Nieves - Howden - Fast

Hajek - Trouba
Lindgren - DeAngelo
Skjei - Fox

Lundqvist
Georgiev

We've been watching them play Benny Hill defense for 4 years, not 4 games.

The more we talk/complain about him the more Staal gets thrown out on the ice.

I’d even swap Butch and Strome at this point.

 

[Anzi]

At this point I'm almost convinced that Staal is the Rangers brass way of guaranteeing that we'll have a good lottery pick.

 

[NYR]

The coaching is area #1 where I'm not seeing improvement and that's the first domino.

Hey.. He's had ample time and players are regressing.
Granted they're still young but there's just way too many holes in his game plan to out-weigh the positive IMO

Cmon man. Quinn has been here 1 year. Trouba and Fox have played all of 4 games, Hajek about 10, and ADA about 60. No way you can say anything definitive about this year after 4 games.

 

[Synergy27]

Haven’t read this whole thread, but are we all in agreement that Buch needs to be moved off the first line. If we’re going to be a one line team, I’d rather have our prized possession as part of it.

Buch was awful tonight.

 

[FJB]

This schedule is Pejorative Slured, but I won't judge the team's performance until around game 10 as usual.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Obviously looked rusty against a NJD team that was gonna bring it. Not super surprising.

Kakko made some really good subtle passes.

Buchnevich continues to stand out negatively especially on the PP.

They're a one line team. Smith, McKegg, etc just offensive black holes.

Joke that Hall only got 2 min.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

This schedule is ******ed, but I won't judge the team's performance until around game 10 as usual.

Thats smart. I'm going to wait until about 20. Horrible schedule so far and too many new guys on the team.

Actually you can -- the defense looks same as it did under AV -- awful!

 

[Ail]

Alain Quinneault is wearing out his welcome quickly. I don’t care if they lose every game the rest of the way but stop with these line-up decisions FFS.

Incredibly sloppy, some astounding turnovers tonight. They had the opportunity to put one of the first nails in the coffin of the Devil’s season on national TV and completely blew it.

Discusntihg!

It shouldn't even take you a year to get your team to play NHL-caliber defense.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

This is what was expected when you play 1 game in the last 10 games or so. A lot of our guys looked sluggish, well pretty much everyone actually.

 

[CasusBelli]

In other news, shatty has been looking good ...

 

[Kiekura]

Just woke up to go work and reading main boards and this here have pretty different opinions about Hughes. Mainboards says he played really well and was among best forwards in his team and people here say he wasn't that great.

Kakko played solid game, still no PP1 time and PP1 was absolut shit yet again? Why not try Kakko there to woke up Pavel and other guys?

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Actually you can -- the defense looks same as it did under AV -- awful!

So you figure they should be playing like a well oiled machine with a total of 4 games under their belt and so many new guys on the D. Got it.

 

[Anzi]

Looks like we had our first guy of the season to be sent to the Quinn Bin already

 

[ZiGOODejad]

Just move Butch back with Kreider and for the love of god Lias has played better almost every game compared to Howden. Make the damn switch Quinn

They're all coach's decisions. You're the f***ing coach.

For f***s sake, can they just give us an answer in English for once?
