Post-Game Talk: Carolina Hurricanes at New York Rangers - March 12

[Machinehead]

Habs are like the White Sox with no prospects

Truly amazing how bad of a position that organization is in

It's fascinating, really. And awesome, because **** Montreal. I hope Bergevin is their GM until he dies of old age.

Bunch of turd goals by Vesey

Wouldn't call bar and in from just below the dot, "crap", but that's just me.

As someone who was a season ticket holder during the dark ages (98-04), I'v gotta say this team is earily reminiscent. Slaughtered by contenders, but beating the bottom feeders. Probably end up picking between 7-15 in the draft. More good 2nd liners. The endless cycle of mediocracy.

Really? this team has some young players. Also 3 first round picks upcoming and a gm that is looking at the future not just wallowing away on fishing trips smoking endless cigars. I see much more hope.

 

[Ghost of jas]

This team could end up adding a player similar to Pietrangelo, and a couple of wingers similar to Pastrnak, and people think the Rangers are going to end up with mediocre players from this draft. This first round is a ridiculously deep draft, and the Rangers right now have at least 7 of the top 93 players available. They got two of the best prospects from last year’s draft, and added four very good prospects from the deals at the deadline.

This is nothing like 98-04.

Still need that upper level elite player you can build around, unfortunately you have to be BUFFALO bad to have a reasonable chance at that.

Georgiyev is averaging 36.7 saves a start since coming to the NHL. What. The. f***. Dude is a god.

Fine, you can have him for Boeser.

 

[Fvital92]

Pavel Buchnevich is 2nd on the team in PPG tied with Zibanejad and with the 20th TOI for the Rangers.
I laugh at this to not cry.

Edit: Also 2nd on the team in points with Miller gone.

No one is talking about it because we as Rangers fans take good goalies for granted

Like the Chiefs with running backs

We just always have good ones

That’s more an indictment on the team in front of him. He’s been great, but the volume of shots he’s faced is absurd.

 

[Edge]

I still think we end up between 6 and 8. Once again, this team continues to be outshot. If Carolina had any semblance of goaltending, that’s a loss.

Perhaps. We’ll see if other teams win.

If the difference is picking 6th or picking 10th, there’s a diffeeence there. You’re talking about Boqvist/Hughes vs. Bouchard/Dobson.

Depending on how you view guys, that’s not necessarily a negligible difference. Maybe it is for the Rangers. Remains to be seen.

You have Chytil. You add a legit #1 Dman and a couple of Pastrnak level wingers, and then grab another player on that level next year, with Shestyorkin in goal, and you’re there.

 

[PG Canuck]

Agreed, but the fact he’s even sporting a .930 SV% is beyond ridiculous, considering the deadline the Rangers had.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Good games from Vesey, Buch and Georgiev.

Feel bad for TDA. His ankle is definitely obliterated. He was looking real good lately too.

 

[nevesis]

Agreed, but the fact he’s even sporting a .930 SV% is beyond ridiculous, considering the deadline the Rangers had.

He’s a special talent and he’s been working with one of the greatest goalie coaches on the planet.

Definitely great to see. I’d play him Thursday vs the Penguins.

 

[Bob Richards]

I just assign all my worship and praise to our goalie coach Benoit Allaire.

 

[PG Canuck]

Fine, you can have him for Boeser.

I signed him for my fantasy pool at the start of the year, just cause, you never know - and free asset.

Followed him this season and I’ve gone from :

Uh ok, well I tried?
Hmm, he’s starting to do ok
Ok ok, he’s getting his legs under him now
Hey he’s doing really good right now
Holy f*** he’s in the NHL
HOLY HELL hes doing GOOD in the NHL

 

[GregSirico]

Lot of faith in Chytil ... I like him a lot too ... but I'd like to have at least 2 more of his type, it's a numbers game and I want more playing chips.

 

[Edge]

Well yeah, adding a legit number one defenseman and three top 6 wingers would do wonders for most teams.

Actually doing it on the other hand...

 

[Mike in Houston]

Rangers Twitter giving Jimmy crap all night and all he did was shove it up their ass. Haha! Congrats on the hat trick Jimbo!

I actually had that thought during the game, funnily enough. I was like, wait, does his mean the Rangers are going to move Georgiyev in the next few seasons to pursue a starting role?

Seems to be he norm for NYR backups.

It tells me pwppw don't actually watch it here games, just the stats. And still they are wrong.

Short side, from that angle? Bad goal IMO.

Fair enough. I just look at Pittsburgh, TB, and Toronto and the plethora of skill they have. It's unfair.
