Deboer has his issues but he did get Jersey and San Jose to the Finals. He doesn’t seem to age well in any job.

This first round was f***ing chaos.

Digging the new avatar. Was overdue.

When Vegas played in Arizona near the end of the season, I sat behind the VGK bench and hung around with one of their team officials. It was obvious to me that Deboer was a dead man walking. I posted something about it at that time. Sometimes, you can just sense these things coming.

Deboer is a good coach but he seems to wear out his welcome quickly.

When your owner possesses the impetuous qualities of a mini George Steinbrenner, it should surprise no-one.

I really wanted to use John Marino's derp face after the OT winner last night (I had it up for a second) but decided to go Ranger centric as theres no need to reference someone who isn't playing anymore, as hilarious as it was.

Sad news about Hagelin

Carl Hagelin will never get 100 percent vision back after almost losing left eye, plans on playing next season

Carl Hagelin had quite a tragic end to his season that will have unfortunate long-term effects on his life due to an…

hope he makes a comeback like Staal did with his eye injury.

so how many times has Bergeron been nominated for the Selke trophy now?

I think he's been named a finalist the last 11 seasons in a row (includes his nomination today). Amazing player. I still remember him being that teenager who made the Bruins back in 2003-2004.

Hmm, that would be an interesting outcome. The Winnipeg Jortz could absolutely take some steps forward in the playoffs, lol

Good I hope he goes there so we dont have to be subjected to his Neanderthal system or worry about us trading for Scheifele

Tortz. Tortz... Tortz? Johnny or Barry?

The latter was never happening.

I don't think hes long for Winnipeg anyway. Hes not a Trotz guy.

We're getting dangerously close to zero pre-lockout players left in the league.

We're getting dangerously close to zero pre-lockout players left in the league.

Who's left besides MAF, Joe Thornton, Eric Staal, Brent Burns & Hugh Jessimen? (assuming Bergeron/Chara/Brown all retire)

Jack Johnson missed the cutoff by one year, FYI. But he came to mind

Read meanwhile that Dubas, Keefe, and Shanny will keep their jobs

 

[fm]

If you're TML, how do you not at least fire Keefe? Throw a dumptruck of money at Trotz? Interview DeBoer. They must see themselves as Tampa in the mid-2010s. Perpetually a year away, always choking, until suddenly the fever breaks and you're a real-deal contender. Unless you're not (Rangers of mid-2010s).

They should.

This year wasn’t like others. Changes need to be made to the roster.

Someone posted this in the comments of the Athletic article regarding PDB's firing

What we know about Golden Knights' firing of Peter DeBoer

What went wrong in Vegas and what comes next? We think we have some answers.

That is what happens when you have great scouting. 2ed round pick. Bergeron, Lucic, Marchand. 2 2ed and 3rd round pick. Gorton did that for that Bruins team. Rangers need to get to that level of scouting at junior, college and pro ranks. that really needs to improve as an organization. The fact that this team cant draft a top line center in a organization that lacks depth is shocking. Get the best player available at the position of need. Rangers have the depth to do so at the draft this year.

Tortorella + Trotz= Tortz

a defense-loving, creativity-averse perversion of science sent from the future to bench anyone who attempts The Michigan and give their ice time to a 38-year-old grinder.

Am I a terrible person if I think this girl that sang the anthem was awful?
