GDT: ECQF - Game 5 - New York Rangers @ New Jersey Devils , 7:30 EST, MSG, ESPN2

[Off Sides]

What would Quinn and Gorton have done differently? Laf and KK would still be busts...

I just feel badly for us Ranger fans, we deserve a roster like the Devils are icing, instead we get a all-star team from 8-10 years ago. Always.

 

[Brutananadilewski]

This franchise needs a complete enema!

Everyone is trade bait.

 

[Ruggs225]

Not that its costing us the game.. but these refs suck tonight

 

[Megustaelhockey]

I'm with @Megustaelhockey . The day the Rangers hire Quenneville is when my hiatus from rooting this team on starts and won't end until he's gone.

Shit like that is bigger than hockey.

 

[The Gloaming]

Who has been good this series? Anyone?

Igor.

Out of the skaters...not happy with anyone after the first 2 games.

 

[SeanAveryTheGreatOne]

It's all right. Next year we'll retire some old fart's number who had .8 PPG while playing with the Rangers for 4 years in the 60's and celebrate that shit like it's the Cup

 

[Row I Goon]

Schmid gonna get the SO

It's enough to make you drink....

 

[RangerLifer]

So f***ing snakebitten lol

Schmid still has the horse shoe up his ass too.

 

[HonestGabe]

What is Gallant yelling at the ref about? Projecting because he knows his job is gone?

 

[markymarc1215]

I look forward to Rangers Twitter enlightening us with pics of Panarin laughing on the ice at practice, and the caption "Putting the Work In! No Quit in NY!"

 

[Ail]

This isn't about the kid line. It's every freaking offensive prospect the Rangers had since who knows when.

This team can't develop high end offensive talent. That's why it's always via trade or FA.

Kreider has had a good career, Stepan was better than most people gave him credit for. The problem is more the prospcts never exceed expectations, and tend to instead fall below them. In this case well below.

 

[CasusBelli]

This team's not that bad. We just have a shit coach with a shit system. The Devils know what to do while we are laboring to get the puck up the ice.

But we’re also old. By the time we learn a new system, our guys are way over the hill and have zero trade value or simply retire. Without many picks and a promising pipeline of youngsters, not much to look forward to long-term right now.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

I don’t know if tonight or last game is more pathetic.

Last game was worse... but not by much.

 

[Priorae]

Who has been good this series? Anyone?

31. Haha. Its true.

Ugh.

 

[Go Rangers]

This franchise needs a complete enema!

Everyone is trade bait.

Another letter coming soon?

 

[I Eat Crow]

Shit like that is bigger than hockey.

100%. It would be the most reprehensible thing this organization has ever done.

 

[Bob Richards]

I don’t know if tonight or last game is more pathetic.

Game 4 was more lifeless but the fact that they responded to its awfulness with THIS game might give Game 5 the edge haha.

 

[Machinehead]

I would hand the keys to Laf, Kakko, and Chytil next season and any vets left will be support. Reverse the axis of power. As much as our kids suck, they need to be given the chance

Lafreniere just sucks. I'm very close to officially not blaming the Rangers on that.

I'm very here for stapling Kakko to the first line and Chytil to the second line. You can reduce Trocheck's minutes - he honestly doesn't get paid that much.

 

[gabevh3]

It always comes down to coaching.

This staff is just happy being here.

What's Barry Trotz doing?

 

[CasusBelli]

Back to the Dark Ages

Certainly feels that way mate. At least the cap is here to prevent us from paying $20MM to Datsyuk and $15MM to Hossa.

 

[RangersFan1994]

Love the country club lazy attitude this team has. They don't even have pride for themselves. Its pathetic and people thought we'd win with this group of heartless bums

 

[Megustaelhockey]

What's Barry Trotz doing?

Preds GM

 

[EdJovanovski]

Panarin has been way better and more engaged than Mika idc what anyone says

 

[CLW]

I don't blame him !! Gallant and company refuse to change the way the team plays... Time to go, bring on Laviolette, FTW

Laviolette is another dino that rode Sindy and Malkin to his cups. This team needs a FRESH approch.
