Post-Game Talk: Fire Everyone

[McRanger92]

I just saw the clip of Vally saying Hughes was trying to embarrass Igor last night and how Colton Orr would have been on the edge, ready to fight Hughes...

...fellas, is it gay to deke?

Clean shot by vally, only 14 year olds didn’t like the chirp. Plus he says the “instagram hockey” line against the rangers once a week. PK Slewban didn’t like it. Shocker.

I chuckled.

I get what Valley is saying but I'm also not sure it's valid. Unfortunately the reporter (or the clip is too short) did not really ask about it in a very clear way. Any one would be like "what does that mean?" in his situation.

Ask: "When did you decide to attempt a Forsberg goal on your break-away attempt?"
Ask: "That's generally a low percentage chance goal. Did you think it gave you the best chance to score a goal in that situation?"
Maybe then you can get into stuff involving Valley's comment. "Had you scored such a goal, you know it would be all over the highlight reels..."
"A Rangers commentator thought that by attempting this goal that would be on all the highlight reels while you were up 5-1, by not attempting a higher percentage shot, you were looking to make yourself standout at the expense of their goalie which he thought was disrespectful."

There's a world where Shesty' body language gave Hughes the impression that he was drifting stiff side and that was a valid shot attempt but we will never know.

Getting mad at a deke that happens every game by multiple players on each team is embarassing for both Vally AND Subban

The hockey culture mentality that supports chirps like this is a disease. Hughes did nothing wrong.

I'd like it if Kakko tried it haha

One can hope Kakko shows up each game with the amount of effort that Hughes showed in his left pinky finger last night

That would be a regression, why do you want that???

We need to go back to a zone defense asap. We do not have the guys. Torts defensive system asap

i really like Vally but who cares? they should be more concerned about their horrific defensive structure and bonehead decision making rather than concerning themselves with what deke happened on the latest breakaway they allowed.

complaining about Hughes trying to score there is loser behavior, maybe don’t give up 1600 rushes a game and it won’t be a problem

Devils ran out of ideas with the number of chances they got. What am I gonna try this time?

McAvoy for Kreider, Schneider and NYR '25 #1.

Why would the Bruins make this trade especially when center ice is an issue. Ask Mika to waive to go there??

Why would NYR make that trade is a better question ? The Rangers are giving up one too many pieces . Schneider is still wet behind the ears and could become what you seek under the right circumstances in NY without giving up a 1st and or Kreider who is also equal to another 1st and a second despite his age .

As far as I am concerned....Vally is the only member of the organization who done his job that game . He's trying to fire up the team and the fans and have them tune in to games and the broadcast .

The context of what Valliquette was saying was not an insult to Hughes whatsoever. He was dissing the Rangers for letting themselves be embarassed, courtesy of Hughes and Hamilton. And Colton Orr absolutely wouldve pounded someone for that back in Vally's day because thats what hockey was like in the mid-2000s.

Classic case of rabbit ears from New Jersey and selective outrage if you dare insult the guys who play Instagram hockey, who are now the darlings of the league.
