Post-Game Talk: Rangers @ Devils

Guess who stopped by the Rangers dressing room during the first intermission?

According to Ric Flair one of the few rasslers who could match him for 60 minutes.

We’re lucky if Lafrenière and Kakko ever hit 40 points apiece with the way they are jerked around. Kakko gets hot with Panarin and Strome, hes taken off the line. Laf getting hot, scapegoated In a blowout loss.

Yep, you can toss Chytil in there as well. Guy looked his best maybe in his entire career with Strome and Panarin and then was yanked off for no reason.

I type pretty fast. I don't think before tonight it's ever happened where I wasnt finished typing about a goal against when another was scored.

 

[Tender Rip]

Needed this tonight - anyone else? One rock or two? (I usually have none)

Ice with that beauty is like putting Reaves with Panarin. Don't. Stay sane and classy.

1 game lead, they are the better team and we have no games in hand.

But we all know you already know that

Don’t be so obtuse. He’s saying a 1 game lead is a 1 game lead, not set in stone either way and not worth a coin flip to him. Nothing crazy. You’re the one saying a 1 game lead might as well be 15.

How about you take a bet that we won’t make the playoffs if we’re such shit. Put your money where your mouth is.

Best thing about this game is they gave us enough time to mentally check out after that 2nd period. I'm already in the mood to walk down to walmart to buy some rice pudding.

What sort of psychopath eats rice pudd... never mind.

Hunt and peck only takes you so far.

Sure the Devils have crushed teams better than us at times this year, and it's not the game itself that's majorly disappointing; *any* loss will contribute to our drop in the standings. Our best chance is with home ice.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Woof!

It's so f***ing over

 

[PuckLuck3043]

The actual result is irrelevant to me, its the fact we get outplayed on most nights and seemingly nothing changes to rectify that. This roster is much better than its showing on the ice is the frustrating part. Outside of Zib and Kreider up front you dont know what you are getting from the rest on any given night and we give up odd man rushes and breakaways like it's Christmas.

I thought they had some pretty good games against the Stars, Ducks, Piles, and Tampa. Carolina game was understandable and this games was just shit. It would also help if the could play a home game every now and then. 7 of their last 9 on the road.

What is this supposed to mean?

1 Cup in 80 years. We’re seriously going to be like the Cubs, aren’t we? Can we get competent coaching? What are we the Wilpon Mets?

They basically have two 1 hour plane rides the month of April, they should clean up on points in April, will they? I have no idea.

It's been very rare in the time I've been watching the Rangers where the ownership group actually gave a crap about winning the cup. Make the playoffs for that sweet sweet revenue? Sure. But hell bent for leather to win the cup? Nah. Shit flows downhill.

 

[DialUp]

What is this supposed to mean?

It means "the season is over and we should have sold at the deadline: Fox, Mika, Igor, Othmann. Everyone should have been sold, for PICKS. Conditional picks, moisturizing picks, even unscented picks."

 

[SnowblindNYR]

It's so f***ing over

Oh give it a rest, he'll bounce back. He played two very good games before this clusterf*** and I got on his ass more than anyone in the GDT and said this was the worst game of his career.

 

[Anthony5967]

I’ll get crucified for this but you know what, Vigneault, Quinn, Gallant, if no Cups result from this guy too, I’m hiring Messier. I don’t give a **** about the no coaching experience. All of these other ***holes have coaching experience and they’re all the same. Id rather bring in a guy that has actually won and knows what it takes and thinks the game at an amazing level. Guarantee he wouldn’t be benching Lafrenière or skating him with Ryan ****** Reaves.

Gallant is a good coach.

12 of last 18 at home will help. I bet they go on a run with about 10 games left in season.

This is so ridiculous. Messier is old school and loves his grit, if anything he'll be worse for Lafreniere and value Reaves even more.

You forgot Panarin and Kreider. Igor will be fine. We know this. He's been at stud everywhere he has played.

 

[Anthony5967]

And we know this how? He was once a prospect too.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

It shows you exactly how ridiculous small sample sizes are. He had two really bad games, one bad game, and two good games, but because he got pulled in the two really bad games and it's only 5 games it looks like the sky is falling.

I still can’t believe that Nigel Dawes plays goalie for the devils.

copp looked great and motte looked fast so there’s that
