Post-Game Talk: Rangers at Bruins - November 5

[Rangerfans]

Not really. Worst game this season. Happy to get 2 points.

Agreed. But as others have stated: we have lost games where we have played really well.

82-game season is a long one. You're going to have games where the Rangers will not play well.

It's going to happen. So when it does, if they're able to get the win, I'll take it. Nothing to worry about though.

No, I am upset the coach makes poor decisions and tries to castaway the best rookie we've had in years. People complain about freaking minor leaguers not playing, but they are perfectly okay with this. Baffles me.

I'll let this discussion go to not cause further arguments, but my point stands.

Vesey has outplayed Buch.

 

[offdacrossbar]

Wow congrats to buchy on his 1st. So happy for the kid. The first is always the toughest.

Confidence
Speed
Crisp passing
Smart team helping defense
Solid goaltending

Such a treat to watch these guys play like this.

Life is good in rangetown.

 

[GOAT AINEC]

This offense though! They should have plenty in the tank for tomorrow since they weren't skating their best tonight.

 

[Rangerfans]

Vesey has outplayed Buch.

100% agree.

People pretty much unanimously want him back on the 1st line. He's a forward just starting his NHL career on a team that is literally scoring more than 4 goals a game. That is why it's not a huge deal to people.

 

[Irishguy42]

We don't have a "fourth line"

I would hope AV sees the effort Buch made tonight and potentially mix him and Vesey up. Swap them, see what happens.

There really is no wrong move you can make with this forward core. Obviously, some things won't happen, but there is a lot of flexibility.

 

[Ori]

We`re deep guys, hehe.
Holden, Buch & Stepan first NHL goal this season!!

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Vesey?

I like all our players, but its like 11 games into the season. Grabner isn't one of the best goal scorers in the NHL because of 11 games. Lets see if AV makes a change to the lineup next game.

 

[Lion Hound]

We didn't play very well but STILL put up 5 goals and got the W

Big Win for the Big Mac!

Dopey "D. Stepan"

 

[Nanaki]

Vesey?

Skjei?

agreed.

 

[Irishguy42]

This was also not a great game. We got the doors blown off of us big time in terms of SOG/shot attempts/scoring chances/etc.

Hope this doesn't continue and we get back to blowing the doors off of people.

 

[offdacrossbar]

If they keep winning then I don't expect many changes.

A few losses and the lines will be changed.

Seems petty to complain about an individual player when the team is going so well.

Sounds like the squirt mom who whines when her son doesn't get enough ice time.

 

[Boruto]

Derek Stepan has that quiet 3 point night routine to an exact science.

You just can't demote Grabner right now.

If Buch moves up (he belongs with Ziba and Kreids) then only Vesey should go to 4th line.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Kevin Hayes is our best center

*hides*

Exactly, its been 11 games into Buch's 1st NHL season. Relax, he will claim his spot

Considering it's a B2B, I would think he keeps lines the same for tomorrow, and then potentially roll out something new in the next practice.

Of course, he'll mix & match on the fly during games, but I'd expect to see the same lineup tomorrow to begin with.

Skjei?

Touskjei

 

[darko]

Kevin Hayes is our best center

*hides*

This season? Yes.

 

[Luther*]

Makes me laugh G make great plays saves goals but still gets put down , does any one watch every d in the league

 

[Machinehead]

Nice to score a bunch again but outside of that this game was abhorrent.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Girardi better be sitting tomorrow.

Not worried about the forwards, they'll figure it out soon enough but Zucc needs to be taken away from Kreider and Zib.
