GDT: RANGERS @ Panthers | 7:00PM EST

[NYR]

There’s not a system on earth that doesn’t give up shots from the walls. Hank needs to save them. 3 of 4 goals from the outside

If the dmen are forcing everything off the boards and fwds are supporting them, they aren't the problem..

Meh I wouldn’t lump the first one in with 3 and 4 with it being a PP goal. Definitely should’ve had the 2 from that period though.

Still that’s beside the point when focusing on the system issues.

This team has to stop take 1-2 penalties in the first 5:00 every night.

 

[ZiGOODejad]

I’m very much ready for the Shesterkin era

This isn’t the goalies fault tho as excited as I am lately these poor SOBs have had no chance with the lack of team defense

 

[Embryo]

He should have what!?


The lundqvist defender 5000 AI is broken guys. Saving this post just to prove it happened

If you're referring to 2001 a Space Odyssey it was Hal 9000 not 5000

is was his brother Sal

So you guys know. No team in the league spends more time in their own zone than the islanders.

What they do is limit chances from high danger areas. We’ve done that mostly today. Still have 4 goals 3 from outside the dots.

 

[Embryo]

You guys forget we're missing Kakko and Zeb? I don't think we would be down a goal if we had a full healthy lineup, stop talking about firing people.

Hank has sucked this game no doubt.

FWIW there are teams that are much more talented than the Rangers giving up nearly as many chances every night.

 

[NYR]

The PK sucks too. But I think he's become a scapegoat a bit. Quinn is the head coach, it's his system.

Ruff isn't without his faults and probably shouldn't be here but this x100 FFS!

People just don't get it..

And if the Rangers did that more often then they’d be a lot better. Both goalies are good enough that if they had more support the results would be better. Of course all goalies have off nights like Hank tonight but if you keep shots to the outside and limit chances then you’ll be okay most nights. That is absolutely not what the Rangers do most nights.

And again, the first two goals were PP goals. Their PK is garbage so limiting chances at 5v5 has nothing to do with that. Their PK is atrocious.

The number was just randomly generated in my skull...might be futurama leaking out

im talking about tonight very specifically as I’ve stated.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Young teams dont always execute the plan of the coaching staff is something to think about. Quinn is usually frustrated after games where we let them roll into the slot, so while he may be the coach he still does have the youngest team in the league to work with. I just dont think any coach would be happy with our zone coverage.

 

[Hi ImHFNYR]

Glad the Rangers didn't listen to the crowd that didn't want Panarin cause of the rebuild.

The level he is on right now is sustainable and if he drops a notch, it's still a 1st line winger.

This dude is ridiculous

That crowd was worried about 3-5 years from now when we ACTUALLY need him.

Why would you pretend otherwise?

 

[Kovalev27]

Panarin isn’t done tonight. But not sure panthers are either unfortunately

 

[NYR]

Shots off the boards are of the lowest quality.
That's what you want..

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

A thing I'm still really worried about. Obviously he's fun to watch and all, but we are going nowhere this year and he's just a great player on a shit team.

 

[Kovalev27]

You couldn’t go into the corner any softer than Lias did there

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Panarin is so multi talented that he will be fine I feel for the duration of his contract baring injury

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

Skjei never hits the net. So frustrating

 

[Richard Banger]

Why is Kreider taking faceoffs?

That's where I feel the problem is.
He's trying to run a system that the players just aren't capable of.
You don't play kids like they're the 80's Oilers.
