Post-Game Talk: Helmet toss

[NikC]

All the feel good chemistry is gone from last year. you can't build a team for a playoff run and then lose 6 players and expect to be as good as you were last year.

Why trade Reeves if hes a leader? Where's his replacment? This team has vets that are talented but aren't competitive. Zabinjad, Panarin, Krieder.... Fox is worn out already.

Poorly constructed team this year.... But GG is not putting youth in a position to shine, he's just not

 

[Atax]

You think they’ll post the Vally stuff on their YouTube channel? Didn’t get to see it cause Comcast thangs.

 

[GbgRanger]

This team needs a MAJOR SHAKING... considering you can't move any players because of NMCs, it'd have to be the coaching staff.

Question is if they even wants to stay here, They aren´t playing like it at least.

 

[Rangers in 7]

I don't want to excuse the kids, but I'm still going to do it.

Artemi Panarin, #72 at even strength points
Mika Zibanejad, #88 at even strength points
Chris Kreider, #98 at even strength points

They are basically producing like 3rd liners, if it wasn't for the PP.

This needs to be pinned to the laf thread

 

[Machinehead]

I just feel like, if Panarin were playing well, is anything different?

Do we really think Stutzle, Hughes, Zegras, or Caufield succeed where Lafreniere and Kakko have failed?

We keep looking at individuals when it's clearly a systemic problem.

Even the coach. I can agree that Gallant isn't it right now but is the next coach, hired by the same two idiots and their latest figurehead, going to fix the organization?

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Surprising too since the big line from the team media is "accountability" with him - Mollie alluded to that being a problem with Dolan. You would think that's such an easy thing to be phony about even if you sincerely think it's all the "puck luck" or whatever, they call it coachspeak for a reason

One of Gallant’s weaknesses prior to be hired was this sort of thing

There’s a reason he doesn’t last long in these jobs

 

[CasusBelli]

did he say which players?

He said “millionaires” — so likely P / Z / CK. Unsure about Trouba, since Vally was at least sympathetic to 8’s attempts to spark the team.

 

[PalmCoastRanger]

What this team really needs are 1st, 2nd, 7th, and 9th overall picks.

Agreed! We will finally have a complete 4th line with all those picks! "Homegrown", even!

 

[RangersFan1994]

That’s not the point….young players are successful because they continue to get chances even when they make mistakes. We however don’t give young players those opportunities

They gave Schneider and Lindgren those chances to succeed here. Upfront unless you are Dom Moore or Jesper Fast type of forward no success happens for a skilled forward here

 

[bleedblue94]

Not a chance. They usually shy away from reposting the critical stuff. I'm sure vally had a producer ask him to tone it down during the commercial break

 

[PuckLuck3043]

at least Vally put the luck card to rest. 99 percent of the time you make your own luck. there is no passionate forechecking. It is as soft as you get kinda hockey

To an extent yes but they have had an incredible amount of bad luck this year. Another 4 posts tonight. Again, that doesn't excuse them from playing like ass.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

What this team really needs are 1st, 2nd, 7th, and 9th overall picks.

Okay so 1,2, 7, 9, and 10 didn’t work out. We still have 3,4,5,6, and 8 that just might one day!

No and that’s what I’ve been saying over and over again lol

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Valiquette about as scathing and negative as I’ve ever seen him on the postgame. And he’s 100% correct.

Hopefully someone uploads it to the thread later.

 

[Kakko Schmakko]

this team quit.... in December

The fact that they didn't respond to Trouba is all you need to know.

Pathetic and embarrassing. I'd throw stuff on the ice if I were at MSG

maybe the team wants a new coach too? Maybe they understand they have no chance to win a Cup with this guy?

 

[CasusBelli]

I’d be surprised if you could even get the Trouba postgame interview to be honest.

 

[Kocur26]

Not one promising player in Hartford …
No spark there …

Back to back ass ripping losses - a day of fukn rain and the Netherlands shit down our necks …

Piss off

They will just substitute Brodzinski for Carpenter and call that a big time move

 

[mike14]

Has there been any rumours/rumblings out of the Laf camp regarding what's going on?
Less likely from Krav/KK due to having less contacts in the US, but if the kids aren't happy with what's going on surely there should a few off the record and "sources are speculating" type leaks to reporters about them being pissed off with the way they are being used.
Maybe even start getting the home town media to talk up 'go home' trades

 

[DanielBrassard]

How the f*** are we out here blaming laf?

He brings absolutely nothing to the table. Jimmy Vesey gets more ice time because Jimmy Vesey is capable of actually making hockey plays at an NHL level more often than once in a blue moon. Do you really think forcing Kakko and Lafreniere out for a couple more shifts is really going to make a big difference? It's comical. The guy carries the puck into the zone, pulls up and then gets attacked by the boards and loses the puck with no one within a few feet of him.

 

[bleedblue94]

Let's be clear, EVERYTHING vally has said in this post game is 100 percent correct. EVERYTHING

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Valiquette about as scathing and negative as I’ve ever seen him on the postgame. And he’s 100% correct.

Hopefully someone uploads it to the thread later.

The chances of that hitting social media are slim to none lol

At least not by MSG

Sucks I couldn’t watch it live for that reason

 

[duhmetreE]

Quenneville can save this team.

Trotz might win more games here but essentially will have similar problems imo

The one from yesterday´s loss is not on youtube. The last one posted is from the Ottawa win.

 

[gabevh3]

It’s time to throw some Jerseys on the ice / I would but am 3000 miles away

And I'm another zero away
