Post-Game Talk: Game #25: New York Rangers @ Washington Capitals, 7pm ET, MSG

[egelband]

Weak call worst PP in the league

Yeah. Dime-a-dozen infraction that only gets called because of the guy pulling a comically dramatic spin-o-rama and throwing himself 50 feet down the ice.

 

[mas0764]

Laf is like our best player and no one else is even showing up.

Would be nice if we had a 1C.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Laviolette needs to do to Mika what Keenan did to Leetch and compare him to another similar center in the league and say I’d trade you right now for him.

 

[rangersfansince08]

game over

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Yeah. Dime-a-dozen infraction that only gets called because of the guy pulling a comically dramatic spin-o-rama and throwing himself 50 feet down the ice.

It was a penalty, guys. Easy hold. Stop with these excuses.

 

[duhmetreE]

Don't worry. Mika is a slow starter.

 

[CLW]

Miller where are you going my guy. Stay in the middle.

Kreider is abysmal

That was honestly brutal by Miller. Pee wee.

 

[savebyrichter94]

Got lucky there

 

[Profet]

Yeah. Dime-a-dozen infraction that only gets called because of the guy pulling a comically dramatic spin-o-rama and throwing himself 50 feet down the ice.

In the AHL the players aren't smart enough to get that call.

It's one of the things that differentiates players in the NHL and the AHL.

And one of the reasons Brodzinski will never be an NHL player.

 

[mas0764]

Laviolette's structure can only put lipstick on a pig for so long.

This roster is so underwhelming even with Laf being an NHL player, and a couple of injuries have turned it into a legit eyesore.

I look forward to the next opportunity to rebuild because maybe we will actually draft and develop sufficient forward talent next time.

Will never happen, Mika is untouchable . NYR and media are in love with him

 

[turcotte8]

Don't worry. Mika is a slow starter.

Just wait til March

 

[will1066]

Just taking too long to shoot

 

[duhmetreE]

this team refuses to shoot for rebounds

 

[mas0764]

Will never happen, Mika is untouchable . NYR and media are in love with him

But mostly cause that idiot contract we gave him means he can’t be moved.

 

[egelband]

That "structure" is mostly defensive. The offense is a half arsed mishmash of dump and half chase and "getting pucks on net". Panarin + Laffy are the only ones free to do something different other than "dump it" or "get the puck to the net and get to work". Makes the team very predictable.

Yeah. Offensively they’re mostly the same though they are going to the net a bit more. There’s really not a ton a coach can do for these guys on the offensive end I think. But if the defense is stout the rest falls into place.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

If I did a shot for every time Sam has mentioned the Lindrens are brothers I’d be on a Charlie Sheen binge by now.

 

[Captain Lindy]

If I did a shot for every time Sam has mentioned the Lindrens are brothers I’d be on a Charlie Sheen binge by now.

He is insufferable tonight, both he and Joe.

You say that like it's a bad thing..

 

[Machinehead]

Top talent that doesn't measure up.

Bad defensemen that we just decided are good because they're on the ice a lot.

First round picks who we're just happy if they become NHL players.

We sent out the letter to turn the Rangers into the Rangers.

 

[Kravtsov420]

these guys are playing without a pulse its actually scary

 

[Profet]

Fox has looked absolutely pedestrian.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

The Ottawa media was almost shocked at how easy it was for the Sens to not only beat us but run us out of the building. We didn't compete; we rolled over.

No one here is surprised.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

But mostly cause that idiot contract we gave him means he can’t be moved.

He doesn’t need to be moved he needs a kick in the ass, a haircut, and to separated from Kreider

 

[rangersfansince08]

He is insufferable tonight, both he and Joe.

so its just a regular night for them then
