Post-Game Talk: NY Rangers vs Tampa Bay 3/8/18 - 7:30pm ET

[ReggieDunlop68]

Lol, personal?

Yeah. The honorable thing would been to hang him out to dry as the Habs did with Roy right?

Anyway, the trade deadline is over.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

What is an acceptable amount of beers needed to be able to tolerate watching this team?

A few more than a cattle call.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Ed Jovanovski is also a fan of giraffes, I like Spoons more now but he still looks like Miller
edit: removed photographic evidence of Ed Jovanovski

 

[duhmetreE]

He's invisible...





until he puts up 10pts in 6 games.

 

[EdJovanovski]

LMAO this is great

also i love steven crowder

Not Gay Jarred is the goat

 

[TheTakedown]

Nice that he passed the tests.

Those things are strict so it can't be anything bad.

Maybe AV can be hit in the head next?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Seriously, how do you guys prefer to resign Nasmetnikov than Spooner? This guy is legit, he is above a ppg playing with our **** team, unbelievable!

Why not both?

 

[duhmetreE]

At what point do they shutdown Hank?

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Some of these players totally look like they are mailing it in at this point, which I don't mind. Helping the tank that way.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

At least offer the King a trade option in the off-season!

 

[Alluckks]

At least offer the King a trade option in the off-season!

I really wish people would stop bringing up this dumb "trade" idea for Hank

 

[Jayan]

Just watched the recap... so many dumb plays and dumb goals... for both teams..

unworthy of the NHL

Not impressed by anyone but Georgiev

 

[FatGiraffe]

Spooner loves giraffes.

How you can hate him?

Well we are pretty awesome

 

[VoluntaryDom]

@Machinehead

Bby what was the Rangers Corsi in the 1st

 

[Tawnos]

Definitely concerned about the absolute POS guitar amp hes got.

 

[chosen]

Better hope some of the futures the Rangers have pan out (and the next crop of draft picks) because the current personnel is close to the league's bottom.

I hope Skjel improves. That would mean the team will have at least two good NHL defensemen.

I also don't think the Rangers have a single legit 1st line player on this roster.

How bad will this group of forwards be if Chytil and Andersson don't turn out to be players?

A lot of what you’re saying is a stark possibility that people will have to consider as we move forward.

It’s very easy to fall in love with the idea of a rebuild, but it’s not an easy, sure-fire scenario either.

I think the Rangers will do a good job, but I already get the sense that some people are starting to view it as a given that everything will be okay in two or three years. It’s not.

I wasn't saying they should trade Hank.

 

[Nopuckluck]

Kind of pathetic when our top players, our first liners in Mika and Bush are invisible. The whole team wasn’t good enough, but when your “best most skilled players” produce nothing and get outplayed by the other teams fourth line it’s a HUGE RED FLAG. What exactly do either of them bring to the table.

Zucc wasn’t good, but he was involved and emotional.
Spooner was good
Hayes was ok
Vesey was very engaged but not effective
....and on and on and on

Zibby and Buch weren’t any of these.

 

[offdacrossbar]

while i understand the demands and expectations that these guys will play their collective hearts out until the end of the season, i also understand that its gotta be a grind and not a ton of fun coming the the rink right now. cant blame em really for sucking

these guys havent had much experience tanking.

fire av > give pitts the cup> go to draft >profit> rookie camp> new team > pretend this year never happened.

Management just told those remaining, not only are you not good enough to make the playoffs, we're breaking this team up. Not sure how people thought that could translate into a push for the playoffs.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

I wasn't around last night and didn't see any highlights. Seems like the place didn't burn down.

 

[FJB]

Is there any chance at all that Gorts will land Tavares?

They weren't #Warriors like Girardi and Callahan that's for sure.

If you can handle Jeff Toms as your 1st line center, you can handle anything.
