I have spoken about us being a soft team for around a month but I had no idea how soft until this game. I'm not blaming our guys. They are just not those kind of guys. Kreider might step up if he was out there but we need more.

Definitely agree, our toughest players fight like Hagelin and Eller, and the fights are evenly matched...

Nothing helps a house fire like putting your dog down on the same day. Just get it over with you know, might as well as send grandma off to the retirement home and give yourself hepatitis C, makes things easier.

So according to NBCSN Zibanejad isnt allowed to check wilson and buchnevish slashing him is wrong and we should play honest hockey vs him.

Our fights were wrong because washington didnt want to fight.

What f***en planet are they on?

As much as I would like to see real
Pain from a Caps player, they are holding back. They can really hurt a lot of our young players easily. They are in the playoffs abd we are not but I don’t see us doing anything really serious this game.

What Jones said is really telling. The Rangers have no one that can win a fight. That very telling what people think about this team right now.
Perfect opportunity to bring up a couple of "puglists" from god knows anywhere. Luv the heart by the team but man this game would have been awesome. Maybe next year.
 
I've said that the Rangers underachieved all season and while I disagree with the firings I do not understand why Quinn is still here, you won't be able to explain that one to me.
He should have been the first one out. If you're going to fire anybody though, it didn't need to come until the end of the season. I'm more upset with the JD firing than I am Gordon. Either way, happening a day after that statement is just a bad look. Maybe they didn't agree and thought it was a little harsh. I'm sure they were the ones having to answer to every media person, writer, and NHL analysis.

This offseason is going to be a monumental one is shaping the things to come. Difficult to articulate how I feel about the franchise at the moment, considering how content I was this time last week

He’s getting clipped too, just going to let him play out the string.
 
They meant that when the rangers got the starting lineup they didnt line Smith up with Hagelin, they put Blackwell there.

I was more talking about the inadvertent shade at how Wilson is way bigger than Panarin
 
That's the proof everything that happened was because of the Press release

You have to think it's related to the press release and/or Wilson fight. Why would it happen NOW and not in less than a week? Why would Quinn still be here if it's all about performance? I don't deny that Dolan hasn't been happy with an underachieving team but if that's his problem Quinn shouldn't be here.

Deserves repeating: Our three toughest players are all out, and the team isn't done being re-built. The guys that were just fired recognized the need for more grit, which is why they drafted Schneider and Cuylle, who are exactly the kind of player built for a game like this. It's nice to see the rest of the roster have a pulse for a change, but it's not like the team has been ignoring sandpaper. It just isn't here yet.
