GDT: Game 8 - New York Rangers @ New York Islanders - 7:30 EST, TNT

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Might just turn this bullshit game off
And I haven’t turned off a Ranger game since I became a fan in 2012.

Ask yourself, would Kravtsov turn this game off?

 

[Crease]

I'm sure we are winning the analytics battle.

I’d rather win unsustainably than lose unsustainably.

 

[Kords]

Just stack Kakko/Mika/Panarin at this point. Everyone else is useless.

 

[EdJovanovski]

It feels like they're waiting around for someone to come save them. There is no help on the way.

[The New Russian Five]

That was the best Lafreniere could muster lmao. Doesn't even try to attack the middle.

He's too slow. It's so frustrating how slow and weak he is. I really hope he gets the same strength boost eventually that Kakko got this season.

 

[Chaels Arms]

I mean the Rangers have nearly 30 shots after 40 minutes, generating offense doesn’t seems to be a problem, execution does

Ehhh, seems like a lot of bad angle garbage shots to me though.

 

[TheBloodyNine]

Someone needs to tell Laf he's playing with one of the best wingers in the world. This opportunity isn't going to last forever.

Or maybe play Laf at LW

 

[NickyFotiu]

No one is. Never seen a defenseman completely dictate the pace of a game and take over a game the way Leetch did. Rangers wasted most of his career unfortunately.

Is it too late to clone Leetch?

 

[will1066]

I don't think we're playing badly, but we just do not get inside on opponents

We are playing so bad. We cant get ANY offensive pressure at all. Get Kreider the f*** OFF THE TOP LINE.

 

[RangerLifer]

I'm sure we are winning the analytics battle.

"Face offs more important than goals!"

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Stack the top line and top pair.

Panarin-Zibby-KK
Miller-Fox

that would be a pretty big adjustment. Like Brian Burke famously said , "Gerard Gallant can't spell adjustment. It isn't in his vocabulary."

 

[Matt Rentfree]

It's scary that we produce no offense even with both Panarin and Kakko actually playing well offensively.

This team doesn't want to put in the effort to score greasy goals. That's how you score on excellent goalies like Sorokin.

 

[mas0764]

I don't know. Zbad, Fox, Chytil, Panarin, other than those four, who could be considered a good 5on5 player? They'd mostly be slow, not very good at transporting the puck, no vision with it, etc...

Trocheck? Kakko? Lafreniere should be way better too.

And guys like Vesey, Goodrow, etc, are no great shakes but they are on par with what other teams have who are way better than us at 5b5.

 

[ViD]

What if Buchnevich was still a Ranger and Blais a Blue ?

 

[ThirdEye]

That through the legs pass to himself at blue lline by fox was insane

[NickyFotiu]

Puck is bouncing a lot for both teams.

 

[Row I Goon]

 

[EdJovanovski]

horrible, horrible coach.

He belongs in jail for this. Not like a significant sentence or anything but I mean just like for a day.

 

[bl02]

That was the best Lafreniere could muster lmao. Doesn't even try to attack the middle.

so weird him and Kakko take turns disappearing usually putting up goose eggs in the process

 

[rangersfansince08]

4 game losing streak

 

[mike14]

They’ve strayed too far from the royal road.

Can't even find a democracy driveway at this point...

 

[Guyute]

Can Kreider and Laf pull their heads out of their respective cornholes please

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

so weird him and Kakko take turns disappearing usually putting up goose eggs in the process

true, but 50 goal 100 points Zibanejad hasn't put up a point in like 4 games now... the whole team has AIDS atm

 

[LieutenantLackluster]

This is a problem
