Post-Game Talk: NYR & Caps (the great race...for last place)

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Of all the narratives around this team there is zero mention of how Lav pushed a less than 100% Lindgren into a lineup with d pairs that seemed to function with some confidence.

Instead of riding hot hands like Chytil and putting him on PP1 to give it a needed shooter he went back to Mika.

He’s a piece of shit coach and it melts my Brain that he hasn’t been fired weeks ago already

This wedding shower was dumb. At least it was climate controlled.

As for the comparison I saw earlier to the Giants, it’s a lot easier to tolerate bad tweener seasons when you actually win championships during the times when you’re good.

You missed the Rangers giving gifts to the Caps, so we witnessed basically the same things.

 

[noncents]

the one good one for me today was RGY randomly deciding that Berard was to blame.

 

[McRanger92]

Did Laviolette speak or did he just get in a cab?

 

[FIRE DRURY]

 

[Cusedog]

Why in the world is Lindgren deep in the offensive zone more than Fox.

 

[will1066]

Does Charlie still invite Ryan over for dinner?

Trying to reverse psychology their asses.

It didn't work

This is an old tired bunch of veteran players that got paid and like the country club atmosphere of the Rangers organization. Fox, Lindy, Kreider and Zibanajad all need to be playing 4th line and third pair minutes.
Let the younger more hungry players eat up the minutes. Get rid of Miller while he can bring back more than a bucket of steam. I know there is some that will disagree but trade jones also. This is kind of Smurfs on defense. A new coach and system is an immediate necessity.
The third line should be the first line for the immediate future and need to play on the pp and 6 on 5. Unbelievable decisions by Lavi.

 

[DialUp]

He shouldve started last summer and he wouldnt have to do it in 1 offseason

shoulda woulda coulda! no looking back we look forward!

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

So… who on the team do we still like? Cuylle and Fil? Maybe Vinnie?

Can we start getting performance clauses in contracts to balance out the NMC/NTCs? You get an NMC, but if you aren’t in the gym 4 days per week in the off season, it’s cancelled, Adam.

None of them tbh

[Profet]

I'm just voting for the 3 biggest tank commanders from now on.

 

[LokiDog]

None of them tbh

That’s where I’m at, but I’m trying to keep up with public opinion lol

Lavi continues to reward these sorry effort veterans with undeserved ice time when many should be scratched. This has the appearance of la betting scandal.

 

[McRanger92]

Zibanejad has been much better recently. Definitely since they came back from Xmas break. He's got an NMC so the best case is that he rehabilitates himself and becomes an overpaid 2C. We can't rely on him for primary offense anymore.

Laviolette, Housley, Lindgren heads on spikes would be addition by subtraction. Miller can stay if we get someone to push him down the depth chart. If not use him to get a top line forward.

None of them are really likeable ina stand out way, but; chytil, cuylle, berard, Schneider, Fox (needs to be better), edstrom's ok, quick, Jones, and I don't mind the new D guys they just aren't very good

 

[DelZottoHitTheNetJK]

Team couldn't catch a break today. Overturned goal by a pubic hair is the stupidest rule that needs to be changed and was a back breaker.

Quick was bad, the Caps were bad, we absolutely suck, and at least this should put us firmly in the retool category

 

[Cmox]

Maybe and with hope, being called betas on national television will light a fire under their ass. But who knows with this core? My feeling is it won't.

Can the betas challenge the bellas for the acapella championships?

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

They had their best season in franchise history last year and just signed a 29 year old goalie to an 8 year NMC. Idk why I have to keep being the bad guy and telling people they arent going for a rebuild. They'll trade vets in hockey trades but they arent tanking and they'll be in it to win the Cup next year.

Then they are delusional.

 

[huerter]

Wasn’t able to watch. How was nu PP1?

 

[Ben Grimm]

The 2 NY teams are tied for last in the division. Smh

 

[kovazub94]

With all due respect, Zibanejad was going today. If Chytil were to replace anyone it would be Lafreniere (also lefty for lefty)
