GDT: Game 16: New York Rangers @ Seattle Kraken, 9pm ET, MSG

Jones is the only player on this team who moves the puck with pace and decisiveness.

Especially the breakouts, it’s just rim it up the boards to a forward flying the zone and hope.

 

[TGWL]

Laffy looks like half the player of last year. Hoped he would build on his playoffs, looks like he's back to floating and over effort striding again

I have concerns what happens when Panarin leaves. His contract seemed great as he's starting to put it together, but it won't be great if he always needs 2 better players on his line

 

[bleedblue94]

It is such a strain to watch this team anymore. So bland.

 

[Machinehead]

That was terrible

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Most boring team in the NHL

 

[ReddestRum]

Lol.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

the only line getting any consistent zone time is the one with no offensive talent

 

[Boris Zubov]

Especially the breakouts, it’s just rim it up the boards to a forward flying the zone and hope.

Our forwards are constantly curling back toward our own blueline on the breakouts, losing what little time & space they had.

 

[ReddestRum]

Can you imagine if our defensemen actually shoot to score and not just shoot for deflections every time?

 

[DanielBrassard]

This is truly unwatchable garbage lol.

With Chytil at least we had a young legit in your face/skilled line that played a 200 ft game.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Any Ranger not named Panarin or Fox should be fined 5k for a cross ice pass at the blue line 5 x 5.

the whole line is tbf. trochek has been completely invisible. laf has been more silent than anything

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

I thought they looked alright in the first period. The second on the other hand has been atrocious.

 

[bleedblue94]

the only line getting any consistent zone time is the one with no offensive talent

Should tell everyone on that team the issue. That line needs to get its Zone time with hard work. Edstrom controlling the puck again two kraken players. All the other lines just have players staring at the linemates watching them do work without engaging. It's trash hockey

 

[Clark Kellogg]

This is truly unwatchable garbage lol.

Ya ain’t lying

 

[TGWL]

Cuylle and Kakko already feeling the loss of Chytil.
4th line has zero offense but they at least they do the hockey.
1st line is too cute with passes that never make it through.
2nd line... no comment. Is Smith playing?
Defense turns it over up the wall. Have 0 scoring instincts and never seem to be a threat.
#endrant

 

[GG96]

Smith should be the Edstrom role. Laf should too. Someone has to battle and retrieve. Not everyone can play in the high slot

 

[Kocur26]

Nowhere near enough from Lafremiere.
He looks disinterested.

 

[Boris Zubov]

A rink level mic caught some expletives loud & clear. LOL

 

[ReddestRum]

We got a shot!

 

[bleedblue94]

Vinny is scaring me more than anyone right now bc he actually looks like the player I thought they signed when I bashed slotting him at 2c that summer. He was fantastic and this year he looks like 3c quality. No spunk to his game, no real touch. Got to wonder if part of that is bread shooting more and not giving Vinny and laffy so many high danger passes for opportunities

 

[Machinehead]

Sam naming all of the crappy teams in the New York

 

[Lua]

Finally broke out through the middle of the ice

ices it

 

[Shesterkybomb]

I still think Edstrom would make a fine center
