I'm absolutely praying on Torontos downfall for betting on Murray and Samsonov. Murrays glove looks like it has a weight in it that holds it down to the ice. Would love to see the meltdown and wholesale changes if they missed this year

Nobody thought he was awful, quite the opposite actually. His limitations were never going to allow us to get to the next level, especially while he & Panarin were busy playing shinny.
Rangers should have moved him at the deadline. Lets face it. Rangers moved a key guy in Gaborik to get Brassard during a playoff run. Imagine getting a first for Strome.. If you know you wont sign the guy, get something at the deadline. Playoff run or not.

We were never gonna sell at the deadline last year. I understand your logic, but it's not set in reality.

Strome was a great Ranger. The Rangers will be better with Trocheck. Both can be, and are true. Strome will be missed. Trocheck will be a welcome addition when the pond hockey style Strome and Panarin plays needs to change come grind time.
I loved Strome and was a strong advocate of resigning him. Trochecks play on the PP goal by Zibby was the first step in changing my mind along with his faceoff. Evene when he lost a faceoff, trocheck hounded the puck, put pressure behind the net, caused the turnover resulting in Zibbys PP goal. Strome didn't forecheck like that. I'm also 99% sure he never won 10/15 faceoffs in a game as a Ranger.
Best of luck to Strome in anaheim. Heck, even get a goal against us, just let Trocheck score the GWG right after so we get the W

Troy Terry is so underrated. He scored the game winner 5-4 Ducks in overtime.

Ducks are gonna be fun this year with guys like Zegras, McTavish, and Terry, but their defense is a major issue. They outscored their D issues tonight, but going against better goaltending will not always be able to come back Like that.

Connor McDick erases a 3-0 deficit and lead 4-3. They don't call him the hockey human penis for nothing.
