Post-Game Talk: Devil VII

[JHS]

This is really a tough one. Not sure how to react except this will go down as the biggest blown opportunity in recent franchise history. The only thing that keeps me somewhat optimistic is the lineup will basically be the same next year and I still believe this group is talented. Shocked at how soft these guys looked.

everyone saying Igor was great was he ? he got outplayed games 3 4 5 7 he was terrible

Are you on drugs?

He's the only reason it went to 7 games. He deserves all the respect in the world.

The team in front of him is absolute trash tho.

 

[McRanger92]

Keep carrying water for Panarin to blame still developing 22 year olds. They committed hard to 10 this year and he spat in their faces. Cancer.

 

[Ruggs225]

Just pick a side for the inevitable Toronto Edmonton final.

Oh god that would be awful.

Canada winning a cup… and i might be Toronto?

Yeah the world would end

 

[AlaBlueShirt]

Let’s go Toronto I guess.

5v5 felt like 5v7 all year, no space, most nights felt like we were being smothered.

Speed is a really big issue, we don’t back teams up. handful of players that have creativity, but we don’t have enough guys wilIing to dig pucks out, win board battles. Like everyone of us yells they need to dump and chase when faced with 4 deep, well who is going to chase. No one wins board battles. Gone are the days when the Hagelins and Callahans would win some of those battles.

theres just been too many issues with scouting and development, too many to not make further changes in front office. Start there first. Switching coaches wont swing things.

It was a good run for this core. Tear it down to the studs.

This post is the very reason we need the dislike button

I trade KAM so fast it would make the collective head of this board spin. Kid is so over rated its laughable.

 

[tomobson]

Trade everyone.

“Remember how people spoke about Hanks penis?

When's the last time you heard anyone talk about a Rangers penis like that?


I rest my case…”

Since Sather joined the organization 23 years ago, this team has been legitimately good at playing real (mostly 5v5) hockey three times - 2008, 2014, and 2015. The other 20 years have ranged from bad to "this literally isn't hockey."

Dolan is a f***ing dope for keeping this incompetent dinosaur around.

I remember saying years ago that we'll never win a cup with Stinker around. Gets more true with each year.

 

[CommaSynapse]

Mercenary team + Draft Busts = 29th summer without a cup. It’s simple. Better team won for sure. But this team wasn’t designed to win.

And we’re here punching walls and fighting with each other, and those assholes will go home and sleep like babies.

I honestly don’t know why I continue to support this team.

I'm doing neither.

I punched out all the walls over the last 15 years especially.

Time to demote/move Panarin, fire Gallant and bring in Q. Give the kids bigger roles.

That's the beauty of an NMC. We can't touch Panarin.

 

[IronBloodedLion]

everyone saying Igor was great was he ? he got outplayed games 3 4 5 7 he was terrible

Do you want him scoring goals too?

 

[Brutananadilewski]

We all hated Panarin's post season in 2022..... There was only one way to go.... up... nope...

In 2023, he said, 'Hold my Bud Light.'

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Not much else to say in the moment. Better team won.

Definitely feels like a hopeless spot for the franchise.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

He can f*** off if he wants out, tbh. If he played better in the regular season, we, hypothetically, could have played the islanders in the first round.

It’s not his fault man. There’s no way he was repeating his numbers from the previous season. The bottom line is Igor was there when we needed him this series, can you say that about most of this team?

 

[Kane One]

We’d ban a lot more of you f*** faces if there were actual rules you were breaking, but thanks. @Leonardo87 the real MVP

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Lets go Oilers?

 

[mike14]

I think Sather should retire and his DNA be removed from the organization. Gallant and Panarin can go too.

LOL. Really? We are gonna write another letter? The rebuild just ended this season.
