Post-Game Talk: Rangers @ Jets 3/14/13 - Tort-O-Rella

[GFiP*]

Just saw the gaborik penalty shot... Embarrassing, dreadful, disgusting. I hate this overpaid piece of ****. He adds literally nothing out there.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Soft team mentally and physically.

Really reminiscent of the country club years some nights.

Feel bad for Hank.

Too bad Del Zotto can't be sent down. What a trainwreck.

 

[zuckera1]

Here's four

17 13 10 23
76 42 44 86
62 22 26 48
82 41 35 76

Do those numbers mean anything right now?

 

[JCrusher*]

People I want gone or with the Whale:

Mike Sullivan
Marian Gaborik
Brad Richards
Stu Bickel
Brian Boyle
Michael Haley
Matt Gilroy



And honestly, I don't care what they do with Torts. He's made his fair share of head-scratching decisions this year. Same goes for Del Zotto. And what a bonehead move keeping JT Miller with the bigs. He's ready but Kreider isn't? Miller belongs with the Whale and it was a mistake keeping him up here. Now, it's too late. We burned a year so we might as well keep him up here.

Agreed with everything you said.

Hm, yes, I understand this code... (I actually do)

 

[Petey Pucks]

yeah that i would say sums it up....wonder why henrik would stay if this persists year after year?

 

[Drewbackatu*]

its time for torts to go...too much talent on this team to be this average

There's too much talent on this team?? Exactly which players besides Nash are you referring to? A burned out Richards who makes blind passes to nobody? Gaborik who hardly ever shows up to play? I'll give you Cally, Stepan, and even Hagelin who all play hard but there isn't one legitmate big time goal scorer amongst the 3 of them.

Face facts dude, tthis team has a lack of talent and zero depth!

 

[Kakko]

Gaborik won't get better this year. He WILL score 40 next year. And I really hope it's for us.

It's not that hard of a pattern to see.

 

[Heyoooo*]

Gaborik won't get better this year. He WILL score 40 next year. And I really hope it's for us.

It's not that hard of a pattern to see.

5 of which will be against us. Guaranteed. And I will laugh hysterically.

 

[Blueshirt Believer]

I know Torts' system doesn't suit the team, but there's only so much you can put on him.

At the end of the day, once our top 2 lines have the puck in the other zone it doesn't matter what system they're playing, they need to be creative and make plays. They're simply not doing that.


I'm so angry. It's one thing to lose, but to lose playing like this 2 straight games... it sucks.

Its just not true. The entire game was a problem with the Rangers breakout. So when your team can't have an effective breakout, and your top lines are exhausted when they enter the Ozone:

How much offensive pressure are they able to sustain?

 

[ImIdaho]

I honestly think if we played the Panthers, we'd get obliterated.

 

[Doctor King Schultz]

I was hoping that penalty shot would be the turning point for Gaborik.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

Do those numbers mean anything right now?

Yes and no. They show that he's very capable of producing big numbers in the NHL and has been for years. A bad season when he's coming off pretty serious surgery isn't enough for me to give up on him as a Ranger.

 

[Doctyl]

Give me 4 legit reasons why Gaborik should stay on this team?

was just a top 3 goal scorer in the league

.5 ppg in playoffs with one arm (common thats damn impressive) but incase you dont like this one, he was practically the entire offense for our team last year

105 goal in 3 years

cant remember the # but he is up there on the all time goal scoring list for the rangers and hes only been here 3 years

 

[Kershaw]

JT Miller is a brutal hockey player. No idea why he's in the NHL. A disgraceful performance by him tonight with those turnovers.

 

[Ryan McDonut]

Here's four

17 13 10 23
76 42 44 86
62 22 26 48
82 41 35 76

his second year here was a joke.

 

[nevesis]

Okay, this is awesome.

Haha love that.

Yeah dude, you're right.. Richards and Gaborik just completely lost all their talent from last season.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

I was hoping that penalty shot would be the turning point for Gaborik.

I honestly didn't get excited for one second. I knew he would over think it. I really want to have hope for him...but alas.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

Well, I missed most of this **** tier game.

Luckily my hibachi dinner was excellent.

No guys, logic doesnt exist here.

They want Tortorella AND him gone, when its largely Tortorella's system ****ing with Gaborik.

 

[Riverdale]

He belongs in the AHL

 

[profchaos2001]

Del Zotto has sucked for the whole season. Its brutally obvious that he's NOT offensively productive, and his defense has always been terrible.

Been saying it since. Rangers @ Senators 2/21/13

 

[*Bob Richards*]

Give Keenan whatever he wants.

Oh man, and you thought people hated Torts....

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Your list is missing Del Zotto.

I mentioned him. I don't care what they do with him.
