Post-Game Talk: Game #12: Sabres @ Rangers 7pm eastern, MSG, ESPN+

[Siddi]

Oh wow, Jennifer Garner (Capitol One ad). What a blast from the past

Are you the only human in the world that did not watch Deadpool & Wolverine?

 

[Brother Mouzone]

Armaggedon

Classic , my wives' fav movie ........

 

[SML2]

not allowed to talk badly about K'Andre!

I feel like if they just told him he was a winger, he would cover the front of the net and stop wandering around above the faceoff dots.

Possibly. It's like $30 to go to the movie here now so I'd rather spend that on bike bits and wait for it come to Disney+ (plus deadpool2 was pretty meh)

My favourite guilty pleasure movie. Harry Stamper is the f***ing man!

Sorry for possibly spoiling it for you.

 

[mike14]

I’d like to see some dramatic changes.

We’ve been the same team for quite a while, not getting better, just older.

Honestly, there’s no untouchables. If you want to say Laf, Fox and Shesty are the core, I’m fine with it. I wouldn’t lose sleep over any of them playing elsewhere though. Wanna keep Kreider as the veteran presence? Fine as well. But I’m horribly bored of seeing this same group year after year. Bread could put up 140 pts this year and it wouldn’t make me like him an ounce more… I’m just done with him. Done with Zib. Done with KK. Done with Trouba. Done with virtually all of them.

Partially, I just wonder if the Rangers can ever truly have the fortitude and work ethic to get there in modern times. We’ve had more than enough talent; that’s not the issue, but I don’t know of a pampered NYC team that will ever get it done, regardless of who plays here.

Agree, I'd much rather see radical changes at this point. As long as quality is traded for different quality.

Not sure about the pampered bit though. How are they more pampered than the Panthers (or most teams that arent in much snaller areas)? If anything doesn't Florida have more country clubs?

 

[majordomo]

We can all rightfully get on Drury for running back the same team that isn’t good enough but let’s be honest his hands were tied in the summer when Mr and Mrs Trouba refused to relocate to 8 Mile. Who knows what Drury’s off season plans were going to be post Trouba.

I've said all along we won't see any significant player movement until Drury is able to get rid of some of those contracts. Once that happens, I can see drastic changes being made.

 

[McRanger92]

I don't, I wouldn't be surprised if the team is sick. It's weird for everyone to be dead on skates on the same night. Usually someone will have some life.

This org knows it's f***ed without Igor. People keep saying you need that money to spend on another player but I challenge them that nyr haven't been able to do it for 4+ years with Igor at less than 6m anyways. He's the one that can carry the team and it's been proven over multiple playoff runs where the team relied on goaltending to get to deep.

If Igor is tanking for contract reasons that makes him a cancer in the room. No one has ever even hinted at that with him.

The cancer in the room is not Igor I assure you.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

If Torts can healthy scratch his star rookie Lavi can scratch one of these bums. Enough of the country club atmosphere.

 

[94leetch]

Is it possible they've already tuned out Lav?
Sure looks like it.

 

[McRanger92]

Lindgren and Miller are not championship winning defenseman either. Trouba hasn’t been a disaster so far and can be dealt with in the offseason as long as they can dump 55 & 79.

I mean, who wouldn't?

 

[Atax]

The wonder twins are back.

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

Gotham running commercials during game action - that’s how bad this is.

 

[Raspewtin]

he's obviously pretty low on the priority list but man Reilly Smith is just not impressive at all

 

[offdacrossbar]

cannot tolerate anymore

Mika
Miller
Lindgren

Tryin to get Mika going has sucked the life out of this whole team. Idiot.

 

[will1066]

Lavi 2nd period:

I'm pissed. You guys will stay in your lines and play this shit out

Lavi 3rd period:

Aww, I can't stay mad at you guys

 

[CLW]

Lindgren and Miller are not championship winning defenseman either. Trouba hasn’t been a disaster so far and can be dealt with in the offseason as long as they can dump 55 & 79.

Yeah but do we trust Chief Drury to have the competence to actually pull those moves off and improve the team? There's a reason they (the Rangers FO) just roll along in their comfort zone year after year.

 

[DialUp]

You are not wrong, but I was being sarcastic

 

[mike14]

Absolute JAG. Does ok forechecking but he's the kind of player you always hope you have 1 or 2 of in your system anyway

 

[Siddi]

The wonder twins are back.

He doesnt even give his own changes time to cook. First sign of adversity and he goes back to his comfort blanket. f*** you Lavi.

 

[SeanAveryTheGreatOne]

Are we allowed to complain now? So many NYR fans have been unable to see past the 8-3 record

 

[Raspewtin]

Cuylle is perhaps one of three players that deserved anything tonight

 

[Kords]

The guy we got for Lias is better than Mika
