Machinehead is asleep!

Easy there. This is a family oriented message board. Thanks.

I don't think he'd be willing to do that type of eating.

Chytil just going to the front of the net on offense and not moving lol. Looks like Panarin and Strome had a talk to him before the game. This is why I don't like the idea of any of the kids playing on that line. They obviously want the RW on that line to do one thing only and it's not great for development.

But you'll miss dual hat tricks by Kakko and Laf!

 

[AKrangerfan]

I was really impressed with Schneider. It's only one period but he lived up to all the hype. He is better than Jones, Nils and Tinordi. He will stick with the team is this is how he plays. Even Nemeth looked competent paired with him.

So are the Rangers

 

[TheBloodyNine]

It's crazy how this was once a highly offensive team. Looks like Gallant made all our all-star scorers forget how to play.

Even from the Covid list, Laf lacks confidence.

He’s celiac right? Yeast…nvm

Bring back Quinn

 

[CLW]

I hate everything about our offense

Same, wtf is the general idea there. Play 0-0 and hope the special teams and goaltending win the game? Zero creativity just dump, half-chase and watch the puck go back into our end.

Our only all-star forward has 22 goals.

They need to bring back the Nini Skye commercial from Montefiore

Lack of lateral mobility on the blue line is a big issue as well. you watch high octane offensive teams and their d are moving around a ton, jumping down low, opening up lanes. That's not happening with this team.

13 of those goals were special teams goals. Only 8 of them are 5 on 5 goals, which is where the Rangers struggle the most.

In fairness, the forwards can't hold the puck more than 3 seconds in the zone before turning it over.

True, there are a lot of problems.

 

[2014nyr]

Trying to catch up. Just tuning in now. How has Schneider looked?

We have a lot of guys in protocol right now, so it looks like a Hartford bottom-6.

Some weird lines.

schneider jumped into the norris conversation, may have the c by the 3rd

 

[Tob]

Every time a Ranger has the puck and is forced to shoot instead of pass

Agreed on that. But, they are goals and we are on a decent path to make the playoffs. I'm more concerned about our FUTURE "all stars" than the present.

True statement, I agree.

 

[Kane One]

f***ing love Trouba

 

[RangersFan1994]

Miller got crunched

 

[Kords]

Wtf was that by Trouba?

 

[Kane One]

That should be a major, based on precedent
