I mean, if the team played Quinn’s system under Knoblauch (like KK kept saying) why aren’t they playing that way today?
I feel like the coach has an excessively meritocratic approach. He plays the best the most, as he would in college, but you can’t coach a ten-year veteran in the NHL the same way you coach a rookie. You need to sit down with your rookies separately, review footage, go through techniques, design personal training regimens. I don’t think that happens under Quinn. I could be wrong, of course, but it’s what the on-ice product suggests.I think Laf and Kakko are the biggest indictment of how we coach offense.
Both of these kids are clearly talented and Kakko has played great. He's always in position to make something happen.
But nothing ever does happen because you clearly have two kids who have idea how to attack a defense that they can't just skate through like it's a video game.
And what are we teaching them? As much as Kakko has improved every other aspect of his game, his production has gone backwards.
No I’m sorry. I didn’t word that in the best way. What I mean is NHL protocol was you cannot have games less than 22 hours apart. It’s been 23 hours.Let’s play the young kids more than. We are not making he playoffs.
The 4:00 Lafreniere has played may be too much rather than too little. He's been awful and can probably use some time off. But we should just force feed him minutes because minutes means development or something?
It was over before. You know how on Sundays you get all depressed because you know you have to go back to work the next day? That was the Rangers yesterday.Yea, it was over when Quinn came back.
He would be even better without himAdam Fox is Quinn proof.
They should hire Knobs to replace QuinnKnobs rolled the lines. Quinn picks the 4th line to start after tv timeouts in the offensive zone. Please management- MAKE A MOVE!
kakko you gotta f***ing shoot that
I'm no coach but the first thing I would tell Lafreniere is "dude, just stop passing."I feel like the coach has an excessively meritocratic approach. He plays the best the most, as he would in college, but you can’t coach a ten-year veteran in the NHL the same way you coach a rookie.
