Player Discussion Gerard Gallant

The eichel/Quinn rangers don’t make the playoffs…
No Schneider, Nemeth and tinordi are prob our bottom pair all season.
Shesty likely doesn’t have the season he did.
The kids don’t have anywhere near 10+ minutes per game.

Its definitely possible. We would also be staring down the barrel of life without Zibanejad. That was the future Gorton wanted.

I’m not so sure about that part.
Gorton wanted Eichel but not while giving up big pieces.
His best offer I think was nils, vk, buch and 2 firsts.

That doesn’t strip the current core. We then could’ve flipped Mika for futures.

That being said drury made the right call re-signing Mika.

But Tinordi’s intentions are probably good

 

[Cmox]

I agree, and those punches were thrown with some real intent.

And thats the reason I said Turk would destroy Tony. Deangelo is a decent fighter but ive never seen him throw punches like Turk.

The regular season made Gallant look great.

The playoffs have made him look worrisome at best.

You finally break up the lines with 5 mins to go only to play everyone on their off-wings? Questionable.

This comment has aged nicely.

It's literally been three games since I posted that and you both really feel like spiking the football??? And one of those games was in Carolina where they completely toasted the Rangers. (not to mention someone already posted the same exact thing between me posting that and you posting this).

It wasn't 3 games. It was on the 21st after we were down 0-2. Regardless I will tell you "specifically" what Gallant has done but let me warn you unless you are an expert in analytics or have a PHD from MIT (majoring in statistics) , you may find this difficult to understand. You asked for specifics........here they are : HE WINS !

I admire that this Rangers team just does not quit. They keep coming even after being down in series or expected to be beat.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Why does Boomer Esiason not like Turk?

He plays dumb so well for a mad genius

Gallant is dumb like a fox. Some people really undersell him. Everything the guy does is intentional.

Have you ever seen the old detective show Columbo ?

Gallant had Probert with him in a local bar I used to attend every Fri-Sat night a few years ago on PEI....I was standing at the bottom of the steps when I noticed them coming down them....they looked to be both ripped . They were in their prime at that time . Probert was a formidable presence . LOL....I never went anywhere near him .....he never looked approachable in my eyes . Just an absolutely scary man back in the day . Gallant had brought some Red Wing friends to town for a Celebrity Golf event that still is one of the best in Eastern Canada and is now held at our local golf course .

one thing about turk that I think is big for where this team is and where it may go this post season is he has more or less refused to run 4 d even in all the elimination games. he has gone spurts of rolling with 4 but he hasnt done it over the entirety of 5 elimination games like we have seen some other coaches panic and do in the past. he has let schneider play through this all and avoided panicking back to the veteran nemeth. as we get into this next series having 3 d pairs that can play and having allowed the 20 year old to grow through the pains earlier in the post season will be huge. you have no chance beating tb with 4 d, and especially with lindgren being held together with clear tape...

Lindgren holds clear tape together, not the other way around

 

[Cuckoo4Kakko]

Play the kids more and take Trouba off PP2. Please and thank you.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Trouba off of PP2 is a must.

 

[Number 9]

I wish he didn't make those comments about Igor and the lightning. I want this series bad and I hope we win it without any complaints, take the L and move on.

 

[SA16]

It shouldn't matter who is on PP2 because they should not exceed 0:00 TOI on the PP (barring a long PP which didn't come into play as the penalty was 90 seconds into it).

Is Gallant more Columbo or Frank Drebin?

LOL, you telling me that Kevyn Adams took Tuch, Krebs, a 1st and 2nd over that? Buch > Tuch, Two 1sts greater than a conditional 1st+2nd, Nils+VK >>> Krebs. It was probably a combo of those pieces. No way all of them.
