still waiting to hear the team rank in AAV of the 6 players who finished the game. im pretty sure it's the 1-6 clean sweep.
how you could watch the quality of hockey Chris Kreider has played this year - the listless, purposeless, disorganized and disrespectful brand of hockey this once proud and true blue Ranger has played - and think that he deserves to be out there at such an important moment, over Cuylle, who is literally everything you'd want out of a middle 6 wing on a playoff team in this league, is just not computing for me.
@NickyFotiu youre the guy who defends the coach no matter what - make it make sense please? Isn't this a game we absolutely have to win? Do the dividends you're potentially paid down the line with a confident Kreider who thinks he has his head coach's trust mitigate the potential risk of the essential possession of the game dying, as so many other critical and non-critical possessions have, on his stick (the possibility that was exactly the result)?
it's the repeated patterns of deployment by Rangers coaching staffs over the years that makes me really believe that Stutzle on this team is a 55 point winger - max - and Lafreniere on the Sens is a 90 point star. It makes me want to blame them, not him.
Then I watch Coronato and Zary cut through our "defensive structure" like an Aussie Shepherd through traffic cones and it's just such a shit sandwich the useless player 13 is. Complete nothingburger. He should be taking over games. Instead he whimpers on the bench. Disaster.
Since as a fan i have no other recourse but to blather into the Abyssal database of HF:
You f***ing suck, Alexis. Im not looking forward to watching you loaf on Garden ice and scupper my team's efforts for however long until you're ignominiously shipped off to wherever to play out your career as a laughingstock. f*** you, man.
