Hockey coaches are completely f***ing useless. They just play what was on the roster when they got there, mostly the same way the last guy did.

The GM has to get the dreck away from the lineup.

Glad to see you've come around.

Not a fan of returning to the old D pairs but I think the forward group is championship caliber as the team rounds into form. Rangers have the depth to consolidate assets into a real upgrade later in the season, which is much needed on defense imo.

Mancini is talented but young and inexperienced at the pro level. Jones is small. Miller and Lindgren not playing like guys who need to be part of the next core. The Rangers need a rock solid guy on the left side to take the next step. Idk where that guy is but i would trade a lot for a top pair defenseman to play with Fox and 25+ minutes a night. It’s not happening with Miller and his next contract is going to be dicey. Lindgren is a 3rd pair guy.

It would happen with Miller if Lavi just played them and Lindgren is not a 3rd pair guy to Lavi because he's a #WARRIOR.

couldn't watch tonight.

how did the lines look - laf and panarin still drive play with Zib centering them?

Kreider cycle with a bit more intention on the line with Kakko?

3rd line looked really effective from what I saw on highlights - that's just a well built line.

Vesey Carrick and my guy Eddie?

24 and 72 look good with anyone.
50 isn’t the same without them.
91 and 16 connected beautifully on a goal but were otherwise unremarkable together.
93 had more jump with 10 and 13 (but needs to get his head out of his ass).
10 produces no matter what.
Defensive was porous due to personnel; not a pairing issue at this point.
31 still saving our bacon.
84 was very noticeable; 26 was easily the weakest of the three.
