To paraphrase Tony Schiavone, signing Panarin was to put butts in seats.

Moore is what my brain always defaults to when I mean to write "Barron" haha (kid reminds me a bit of Dom Moore).

I think that when we are good, assuming no trades and no kids in junior making the jump, the 1st line is Laf, Zib and Panarin. The 3rd line is Kreider, Barron and Pajuniemi/Blais. The 2nd line is Strome (or replacement), Kakko and Chytil. And Goodrow anchors the 4th line.

This team has no shot in the playoffs for the simple reason that they run out of gas. Every time they get a schedule break, they come back strong and then fizzle. We are watching the fizzle. They will probably come back strong from this break. You don't get breaks in the playoffs unless you are 4-0 every series, and that has no chance of happening.

But why do they run out of gas? not saying you're wrong but why? These are 24/25 year old athletes who are in better condition (or should be) than 99.99999 percent of the population. They are not really a small team either. They are far from old.

Enough with the fringe NHL player call ups. Time to call up guys who may actually have a future on the team.

The vets in the top 6 get too much leeway with how they play. The whole team plays awful away from the puck. Players without the puck got to position themselves better as options during the rush and in the offensive zone.

I'm tired of watching Rangers get dominated on possession. It seems hardcoded into this franchise regardless of the roster and style.

Dave is getting old. His prescription is double magnifying glasses

because Gallant has been way too soft on them.

I don’t know what Rangers you’ve been watching, but they’ve been winning games all year.

How many of those was thanks to Shesty?

Again, Pittsburgh had all the excuses to be playing like shit and being a playoff bubble team, at best. But they not only played good hockey, they won games, and are currently in 2nd.

Let's not beat around the bush: if we lose Panarin or Zibs for a considerable amount of time, this team goes into a freefall.

The extreme passive style is a constant across multiple coaches. The forwards being disappointing is a constant across multiple coaches.

There's evidently an explanation for these things beyond coaching.

How many more coaches are we going to blame?

Kreider career year under Gallant
Grabber career year under AV
Rick Nash because a two way superstar under AV
Stepan #1 C under AV

the forwards haven’t been disappointing.
 
We arent playing well again. I just want us to win and finish this game as quick as possible. Not enjoyable hockey to watch to say the least. we just dont shoot
 
Goodrow frustrates me. He gets a lot of chances but that’s because he is up the lineup with a lot of high leverage chances. He is an effort player that fails often in skill situations.
