DeAngelo is elite at shooting for rebounds

 

[RGY]

LOL Miller who do you think you are?

This team has completely quit on this coach. It is so obvious that the first move should be firing AV. He can not be part of any rebuilt/retool.

AV became dead to me during last year's playoffs against Ottawa and his insistence on using Staal/Holden over and over and over.

Just a complete idiot. Needed to go the minute after the handshake line was over.

 

[LORDE]

I guess we all knew this was coming but man it’s hard to watch. Especially Hanks reactions.

This is some bitter medicine to take for “last kicking the can for 4 years”

 

[trilobyte]

No joie de vivre with this Rangers squad.

 

[I Eat Crow]

The mood in the building is mostly angry.

To my left, punches being thrown. To my right, a woman knitting.

My friend's aunt told us the stories about games between 1999 and 2004 when people would literally bring the newspaper and magazines to read at the game because it was quieter there than any other place they could think of.

It was too depressing for people to be fighting, though.

They all look like they are freelancing out there

I find this offensive as a freelancer.

Last couple years of that were misguided at best. I think the Yandle and Staal trades were unnecessary and hurting us

 

[Avery16]

This team makes me want to hire a hit man to cut my own brakes.

Try to do it on credit

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Looks like Hayes gave our free samples before the game

 

[RGY]

I’d almost be happy if they just got rid of AV at the deadline because that alone would be a huge success.

This team has not skated hard all year. They have never shown up for a full 60. The defenses lapses and bad coverages have happened over and over again.

FIRE AV

Yep the defensive deployment at the end of the games in that series...just, man. f*** AV. I was still okay with him coming into the year, given what he had done here previously, but whatever good will I had for him was pretty quickly depleted.

 

[FJB]

I rarely turn off games because I obviously like punishing myself too often but today and the last couple games f***ing **CLICK**.

 

[chosen]

Not really. That was a great move at full speed. He came towards DA at full speed and walked him

Play the body instead of the puck solves that.

I sincerely doubt you wouldn't have roasted Skjel, Holden, McD, Staal, and Kampfer, but we will never know.

 

[LaffyTaffy]

I'm officially done with AV. The team has quit on him and he on them. Get the sale started, and for the love of god stop starting Hank. His numbers should not have to die along with our season.

 

[NYR]

Idk man, this Boston system is probably Gorton’s desired style of play as a Bahston guy. Ya ain’t getting this with AV hockey. Cassidy had a team with like 7 rookies at one point and had them all in sync and disciplined. Look at them healthy. They're a machine.

Again..I want AV gone but JG is the one playing the cards here.
This is all his doing.
If he wanted the Boston style of play, he has the power to make that happen a long time ago.
Instead it's status quo..

 

[Nickmo82]

My current dream: they fire AV between periods. I know it wouldn't be best for the team and all, but man it'd feel good.

Didn't have a problem with the Captain Keith move, we were good enough to win the cup. The Staal move was unnecessary, that team was horrible, and was only in a playoff spot because of Hank's first 2 months.

Smart man. Spare yourself.

 

[NYR Viper]

AV is doing a great job tanking. Why remove him?

 

[Nickmo82]

Hope people boo.

The yandle move just seemed like we wanted to out gun teams because we were gunna lose the match up game every night and we did in both Tampa series
