LOL. What the ****. Another rookie tender on a 30th place team making 45 saves. Our offensive creativity is so awesome. Nawt.

****ing idiots.

Though I have to say, blaming Torts for every single loss got old and tired a long time ago. Whether he juggles the lines, or refuses to change them, no matter what a very vocal section of the fanbase will continue to blame him for the team's every woe.

We dominated attack zone time and put up 45 shots. Team just couldn't finish.

What bothers me is that we have gassed players on the ice all the time.

I mean, if you play the way we do -- you gotta have players on the ice that ain't gassed. FLA could keep us on the outside all the game. 45 shots or not, we barely threatened them.

We have a roster that easily should be top 4 in the East. You think we have holes, look at the other teams.

Torts just not doing a good job at all. We started to do well after a bad start WHEN he spread the ice more. It just don't work to roll 2 lines in the NHL 2013. This is not me saying, we are the team in the league that spread the ice time the least. This is 29 other coaches in the NHL saying.
 
Lundqvist needs to play like a Hart finalist if this team wants a chance.

This isn't the first team he's had in front of him that couldn't score. I'm sure it's frustrating but he needs to cut down on his first period goals against. The last thing a horrid offense wants to see is a crooked number 10 mins in.

Still, 28th in offense? How could that not be on the coach?

It's really that bad with Brad at the moment? What's the issue, in summary?

His entire game is awful. He's slow. His decision making is terrible and leads to constant turnovers. He's doesn't play hard on the puck at all. The only time you notice him when you watch him is when he's making a bad play, which is frequently.

Thanks for replying. Damn. That's unfortunate. I've only caught about six games this year, off my usual pace due to having less nights where my team isn't playing and yours is (wi the condensed schedule),,, so my finger is off the proverbial pulse in comparison to normal

The Garden was dead. It was another horrible game to be at.

Pretty much expected that for this game. I had no choice but to go since I couldn't dump my ticket. Sat with my buddy in 201 in front of the TVs and yelled my ass off the last period. Unnecessarily spent $60 on alcohol and food when playoff invoices were sent out. :cry:

I like how every crushing/demoralizing loss is supposed to be the Rangers' wake up call. They've had about 15 wake up calls this season. I bet people are going to be saying "Well the season's over and we didn't make playoffs/got swept in the first round..Should be a real wake up call for the team."

They, somehow, can't use a period of uninspired hockey as their wake up call while the game is still going on. It always seems to be after the game has concluded and the Rangers have been completely walked all over that the game as a whole should be a wake up call. I think they need a new alarm, because Torts can't wake them up.

That's the running theme for this season. We miss a guy like Prust. He was a really good glue guy.

I still don't understand why Torts pulls the goalie on the PP. By far the worst decision this season.

Pretty much, I sat there in disbelief. I can still envision the puck sliding down the ice to the empty net in slow mo, it was just one of those nights.

That shows how much confidence he has in the PP unit.

We had already had a man advantage and a minute of play left. 9 out of 10 times I wouldn't pull the goalie, especially with the way the offense has looked.

I agree, wholeheartedly. 6 on 4 is nice for the 2 man advantage, but there is NO space out there. just a big cluster.

But again, I think every coach in the league, when down by a goal with 1:10 left to play pulls the goalie and takes the 2 man advantage. Torts went full offense and threw the top 6 out there. Gaborik took a stupid shot, and it worked against us.

But I don't like pulling the goalie until under a minute left. Just me.
 
A smart coach who's a tactician only pulls the goalie at the right time after The draw is won and the
Cycle is going. Only then do u pull hank.
 
As much as we look awful, in my opinion this is clearly becoming a coaching issue. Any irony that Nash's anemic offense is since he's been forced to play with two slumping players, rolling with only three lines in a condensed season, and some stretches of a game with two? .:shakehead

We won the draw and had complete possession of the puck. The problem was that Gabby took an ill advised shot that got blocked.

45 shots is a joke, all bad angle or long shots no screen, no great chances made this kid look like Patrick Roy!
 
Made the mistake of watching the last 10 mins of the 3rd. This team is hilarious. Why is Torts still here?
 
Unless something drastic happens at the trade deadline, this team will be lucky to make the playoffs...very disappointing!
 
Thank god i fell asleep at 2-0

Absolutely brutal.

Seriously if i hear Del Zotto high and wide again i'll go mental.
