When the Panarin line goes quiet we really do look pedestrian

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Laf is back to looking lost and tentative.

Whole team looks like shit again. Not just Laf.

 

[Tob]

No work ethic. Only easy and pretty passing plays

 

[Atax]

What a sequence:

Lindgren gets lit up again, Quick gives up a stinker, Sam and Joe have no idea whats going on, Sam blows the call....

Firing on all cylinders right now

People paid to see this.

 

[CasusBelli]

Laf is back to looking lost and tentative.

Just when you think he’s putting it together …

It was my fault for letting myself believe.

 

[hella rights]

Given what was called so far looked like they expected there to be a call on the Lindgren hit, stopped playing

 

[bl02]

Lindgren hit aside we’ve had our heads in our arses for about 2 weeks now.

WTF is going on?

pretty simple the Trocheck line has let up a bit and basically no other line has stepped up. I can't blame them since they have had their foot on the pedal all year long while our "first" line has been invisible all year long.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Lav how about trying something different? No?

 

[Profet]

and he’s back to forcing himself to the left side of the ice

Ok so I'm not the only one nticing that we're playing 2 RWs on that line and leaving the entire other half of the ice completely unoccupied.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

This is my own recency bias speaking, but when was the last season we did not fudge the bed during the holidays? The lockout season does not count.

 

[huerter]

No work ethic. Only easy and pretty passing plays

Up tempo
In your face

 

[Kords]

These clowns have now completely reverted back into Gallant hockey. Back to back losses on the menu this weekend at this rate.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

The Flower.

 

[DanielBrassard]

This period has been so bad, no cohesiveness, no forecheck, outside of the 4th line at times.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

The Flower.

This was my first thought, too.

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Wake the eff up boys damn

 

[Synergy27]

Everyone expected this team to struggle learning a new system early on. They somehow came out blazing hot.

The thing is, outside of Panarin, no one has really been playing really well. Fox has been hurt. Mika has been meh. Shesty has been bad.

I don’t know who the real Rangers are right now.

 

[hardnosed]

Lindgren hit aside we’ve had our heads in our arses for about 2 weeks now.

WTF is going on?

Yea. Lindgren's head has been in the clouds. No focus or he wouldn't be getting nailed like that. Miller's head isn't right. Other guys look lost like Igor. What is going on?

 

[duhmetreE]

we look confused again. Gallantesque.

nothing is clicking

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

pretty simple the Trocheck line has let up a bit and basically no other line has stepped up. I can't blame them since they have had their foot on the pedal all year long while our "first" line has been invisible all year long.

Yep.....opposing coaches have realized if you stop that line, your chances of winning increases significantly.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

This period has been so bad, no cohesiveness, no forecheck, outside of the 4th line at times.

we were keeping it in anaheim’s zone to start, but since the penalties it’s been all bad

 

[RangersFan1994]

Vets tuned out Laviolette already and trying to get him fired. Gut feeling. Country Club Atmosphere

 

[17futurecap]

It’s obviously helps they aren’t good, but respect to the Ducks for having a long term plan for their top draft pick.

 

[bl02]

When the Panarin line goes quiet we really do look pedestrian

They can't be the only line showing any kind of threat night in night out

 

[Jauffre]

Is Sneaker Bro a free agent?
