GDT: Game #27 New York Rangers vs Chicago Blackhawks 7:00 EST (MSGSN, NHL Network) [Berard vs Bedard]

Mike giveaway on that replay angle looks even worse

He is a bum.

 

[Boris Zubov]

His agent isn't stupid. He's going to get a big contract whether it is here or somewhere else. He's probably never a top pair guy but he's a 2nd pair guy most teams would love to have.

It's not a coincidence his problems started when this coaching staff took over. Once theyre gone, hopefully the light goes back on for him.

*clears throat* I bet the Rangers would do pretty well if Mika was not on the Rangers anymore.

Fixed it

 

[Profet]

Oh look... They are competitive thus far...

With Chicago...

FML

Rebuild please.

 

[Machinehead]

Trouba is wearing sixty f***ing five.

This is the ugliest thing he's done and it's a high bar.

 

[Boris Zubov]

*clears throat* I bet Zib would do pretty well on PP2, being able to just set up and blast one-timers.

He's the King of One Timers, so it's bound to yield results.

 

[Gordon Bombay]

Did we play zone up until the florida series where we randomly switched to man and then got shallacked for 3 straight games? I remember Valli making a comment about that scheme switch out of the blue.

I kinda remember them mentioning that. Lavi has always ran that man system and I could've sworn it was a hybrid thing we were doing most of the year. I could be completely wrong, despite the handle I'm not exactly an X and O's guy

Yeah, probably true unfortunately.

I still think there's a 1st pair guy in there; he's shown flashes of it. Something is a bit off with him so far this season though. Maybe there's some fire to the off-ice distraction smoke.

 

[RangersFan1994]

He is a bum.

Overpaid bum

He's driving me to king of beers

It is good to see the Rangers give letters on their jersey based on laziness and expensive contract. Country Club Team. Pathetic

I was all over bread last year but the guy has turned that around and I'm fine with that.

Remembering him sticking up for himself while surround by 4 flyers a couple weeks ago continues to stick out, no teammates anywhere to help. Someone should have come flying in and tackled someone at that moment.

Legit a player like cuylle is a tone setter but you can't toss letters on kids that young. We just don't have leadership, that's part of the issue. A guy like messier actually set a standard on what to wear during an intermission interview back in the day. These guys just do whatever they want on the ice. So disjointed.

Overpaid bum

UNMOVABLE bum. Ugh.

Don't give in. Stick with your local brewery. Or have a donut instead.

I think Miller needs structure. He needs that to stay contained within his skill set. His skill set can allow him to wander and play outside of his control zone.

Name one other coach than Lavi who wouldn’t bench Zib and Kreider for their lazy stupid mistakes. Un-fuk-believable.

All of them?

 

[Clark Kellogg]

As a fan I’ve witnessed some bad hockey over the years, but up to this point this group is on track to match the 88/89 and the 99/00 team for unwatchable Rangers teams.

Other teams can give letters to young players. I don’t want to hear that excuse.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Brain cramps are very noticable.

He's enormous and just leaning on guys would snuff plays but defaults to stick checking.

Basically never plays angry.

An almost unbelievably bad passer for a non goon.

Yeah, I mean, I think these issues are a little overblown, but there's some truth to each of them too. I think despite the very visible warts, he generally keeps the puck going in the right direction; and he isn't being sheltered at all.

 

[effen]

All of them?

This, to a tee, is what got him fired in Washington.

Leaning on the corpse of TJ Oshie.

They rarely do unless they are rebuilding and starting from scratch. This org isn't doing that again even if they should to some degree.

 

[RangerLifer]

Oh, Joe. Only 19 years old, Joe!

 

[Clark Kellogg]

I foresee an offer sheet in Will Cuylle’s future.
Karma for the Adam Graves signing.

That 88-89 team started out with so much promise. We were in first place from Sept-January. Then the wheels completely fell off.

 

[will1066]

We're globetrotting again
