Rangers being blitzed 1-4 in Beantown......this team team might need more than just Miller to turn it around.

Pittsburgh could end up waiting for their first round draft pick until 2026.

Honestly this timeline feels worse, for me anyways. Game away from the WCF and now it’s completely blown up. Just as I got my love back for the team, it feels like it’s gone again.

There was never a point in Benning’s tenure where we felt we could be a good team so it was pretty easy to just check out. Expectations weren’t even a thing.

What has happened feels like a huge blown opportunity and will likely be a what if when we look back on it.

We are all shucked oysters laying in the sun. Close to the life giving ocean, but destined to be consumed by gulls. Canuck fans.

Igor got paid and dipped, that’s not gonna fly with Miller, someone making more money than him and they are tanking so bad.

He’s gonna bully him into a trade this offseason probably.

Lol and if you look at the rangers gdt they're all about it. They want him to yell at ppl 😂. Half our team is very sensitive.

I'm not even sure what you're saying here.

Projecting 18 year olds is hard. Weird stuff happens.

The thing you posted said that Henry Mews was more likely to be an NHL impact player than Tom Willander. It's ludicrous. Willander is a top-5 drafted defensive prospect on the planet, was just arguably the best defender at the WJCs, and Mews is an undersized 3rd round pick getting lots of PP points in the OHL. They aren't even close as prospects.

Kris Letang was an"undersized" 3rd round pick that was getting lots of PP in the QMJHL. That has been a star and has many Stanley cups. Was anyone predicting that in the scouting world when they drafted him in the 3rd? Which scout do you think had Gustav Forsling in the 5th round playing top pair and winning a Stanley cup as an undersized defencemen? The scouting community that drafted him in the 5th round.

Why do you think NHL organization's use analytics?

Have to say, I don't know what your point is with the last few posts. I don't think anyone can reasonably expect to create an evaluation system that catches outliers. I don't see any claim being made that they don't exist, but properly developed grading system will be proven to correctly place, within a scale, most players. There's no way it will be close to 100% accurate, which is what it SEEMS like you're arguing for?

Honestly it's confusing.

You know, you might be on to something. Last year, the Rangers won the President's Trophy and had Cup hopes this year.......but have totally face-planted this season.

And of course the Canucks shocked everyone last season by winning the Pacific.....but this season marred by controversy and inconsistency.

Miller might be trading one dysfunctional dressing-room for another one.

Sorry, I didn't bother to read the bottom. You suck at scouting it's okay, a model sucks and it's a problem. I'd ask you to make sense of that but I can clearly see you can't.

You can't see the difference between 'scouting players is difficult' and 'if your model produces a result that a top-10 pick is worse than a 3rd rounder, you might have a problem'?

So weird how you are such a desperate loser you feel the need to speak about another man's wife like that when you don't have a clue lol. Pretty sad guy

Miller dogged it after us fans supported him for years when he was getting dogged by the media. Now after a good playoff run, he comes into this year like a whipped mofo playing like he doesn’t care.

If this man child would’ve cooled his shit and actually cared instead of being a lazy bozo, then i get it.

But since he ain’t here no more, that guy can bully several Rangers players to the point they question their playing career.
