Post-Game Talk: pgt

[KirkAlbuquerque]

I don’t want a coach who can’t develop offense again, that’s for sure.

We already have one

 

[Tob]

Oh well. Got a point. Continue to get better on all 4 lines. Reaves needs to come out a game or two here and there.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Unfortunately I will have to make this package trade. No hard feelings.

I also had Mets ones. It was the 80s.

 

[FireGerardGallant]

Georgiev is a top notch goalie. People will soon realize it.

Are the Rangers still a perfectly built team? Elite Jinx thread btw think we've lost every game since

 

[hackeyman]

They need to cancel practice and have Reaves beat every single player in the face for an hour then Reaves scratched for the next game.

I actually like this idea.

 

[duhmetreE]

Sounds like October.

Kreider was carrying last October.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Not the worst game on the whole against a great team.

Kreider is so bad right now. He's bringing down that line. Wonder how bad it will have to get to make a change there. Maybe in February.

 

[Kravtsov420]

kreider was disgraceful tonight

 

[mas0764]

Trocheck had juice all game. I can’t say that about others in the top 6. Laf seemed to struggle finding his place, looked like he was caught in between, seemed like a rough day in the office. Fun game, Igor was great.

It’s been that way for Laf since like game 2 or 3. We are now at game 6.

 

[mike14]

I mean one of these 3 on 3 overtimes.

Detroit, end of March.
We haven't lost in 3 on 3 since Nov last year

 

[ohbaby]

Seams like a Ranger thing. Always the old players coming back to bite us excuse. Whether it's an old coach, goalie or forward. Always a good reason to loose the game.

It is very much a Rangers thing. Been going on for many years. At this point, it is surprising Hunt didn't score a hattrick.

 

[bleedblue94]

I disagree with the fact that the kids can't make a shootout attempt, on a substandard goaltender that they saw in every practice for the past 2 years and NOT put forth a better effort than those two moves.

Those attempts were pathetic.

I do agree the coaching choices made in OT were mind meltingly bad.

Shoving Kreider out over and over again when he should've been benched in the 2nd or 3rd period is particularly criminal.

Take 20 mins off in one of your games and then immediately step out and attempt a quality move on a breakway, I'm actually surprised neither grenaded to puck into the corner.

You don't ice players on the bench and then ask them to go make a skilled play, that is just poor execution by the coaches.

And whether geo is shit on breakaways of not he let 1 out of 4 tonight so I guess our players were pretty shit in their attempts.

 

[Kane One]

I also had Mets ones. It was the 80s.

At least you might remember your parent’s joy over the Mets winning, rather than my house of misery.

 

[duhmetreE]

I liked Vesey Goodrow Blais.

That puts Kravtsov with Carpenter and Reaves

 

[mas0764]

This was a tight game against the defending champs. It wasn’t perfect. And i am certainly not happy with Gallant’s decisions in OT. But are people really complaining Laf and Kakko had 0 points in a 3-2 SOL? Really? That is serious. Laughable.

More that they have combined zero points in the last 3 games.

 

[kinger8998]

My blood is just boiling at that Georgiev celebration. What an entitled little brat. Lundqvist, the greatest goaltender in the teams history, had to backup that little twerp for 15 out of his last 30 career games or some crap like that. Quinn did that, not Georgiev, yes, but Georgeiv has no reason to wave at the crowd and act like that after a win...in a shootout...in the 7th game of a young season

He should be thankful the Rangers took a chance on him. Shesterkin outplayed him post Hank, plain and simple, and Georgiev was too mentally weak to push through and compete, so he shut down and played like crap because hes entitled and needs to be coddled and told how good he is like a little baby.

Direspected Hank for him, took a chance on him at the start of his career, traded him to the defending Cup champs giving him a chance to be a starter on a contender, and he still pulls that crap post game like we gave him the short end of the stick?

I hope to god we play them in the Cup finals and light him up for a touchdown in Game 7 when it really matters. Would love to see that coward have to shake the teams hand in lineups after pulling that crap.

Based on this game, they are

This often goes overlooked. Sitting for extended periods then asking 'why do they look stiff'

 

[Rangers in 7]

I'm actually legit curious - what were his goal totals last year at this point in the season? Anyone know?

Im looking it up now

He had 4 goals in his first 6

But it’s his overall game, he looks atrocious

 

[RGY]

Trocheck was 15-4 on faceoffs tonight. 78.9%. HOW IN THE f*** DO YOU NOT PUT HIM OUT THERE FOR THE PP IN OT?!?!?!? That is wildly negligible by Gallant. Wild. And what happens? Zibanejad loses multiple draws leading to virtually no zone time for a 4-on-3 PP. I am a Gallant guy but that is so so bad.

 

[FireGerardGallant]

I liked Vesey Goodrow Blais.

That puts Kravtsov with Carpenter and Reaves

That should be the 4th line by the end of the season. Gotta get better players to play with Chytil

 

[Jim Ramsay]

I know people like ripping on GG, but he gave Laf and Kakko a shootout attempt....and they were horrible....

 

[UnSandvich]

We've all seen Georgiev have this kind of game. He has it in him. He also has been known to implode spectacularly.

What really pissed me off is that bullshit Manson pulled on Zib. He absolutely knew he was there, and took Zibanejad's feet out from under him while Zib was in a super vulnerable position. Absolute dirty play

 

[DuneGoon84]

I am already done with GG. Does he even have a structure? There is no fluidity to their game. It's just wing it type of mindset

 

[RGY]

More that they have combined zero points in the last 3 games.

Really not worried when the whole team has been sluggish the last 3 games.
