Post-Game Talk: Rangers @ Senators | 3/28/13 | Lundqvist or Clownorella

[*Bob Richards*]

Remember when we had Pascal Dupuis? Good times, good times

Pascal Dupuis gets fed from Crosby. He'd be useless here.

 

[Championship*]

And we all know the next game is an automatic loss as well.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Was wondering earlier today whether the Rangers would have the cap space to go after Horton. Would love to have him in blue

If we trade Gaborik, we could easily
There's a tiny chance we can even keeping Gaborik

 

[Machinehead]

Miller is 19 and a bust.

Del Zotto is a good player and 22 but a bust.

McIlrath is 20 and hasn't played a game yet but a bust.

I'll be 22 in June, can I be a bust too?

 

[Ail]

Pascal Dupuis gets fed from Crosby. He'd be useless here.

Seriously, even Boyle could finish with Crosby.

 

[Wolfy*]

I guess this is a perfect example of stone age hockey, as coach Johansen called it

Make sure you play promising hockey first and are drafted by Clark.

Its not the coaching as much as it is the players. Coaching is a cop out. The players are on the ice. The New York Rangers of last year were an overachieving, anomaly.

The truth is, the team doesn't have as much real hockey talent as others.

Lots of people love to look at the LAST NAME'S of the players and on paper say, "how can we not be good?" but its not always about what a name says on paper or the back of the jersey.

End of the day, a coach getting fired is the only thing you CAN do, because you can't fire players. But again, the players are the one out there on the ice, and are responsible for what happens. A 'system' only provides structure. Some here think Torts has organic computer devices implemented into each players brain and he and Sullivan are controlling them by a ****ing joystick from the bench.

Blame the players for their lack of hustle, lack of skill, lack of talent, lack of heart, etc etc etc.

Remember...

This is the NEW YORK RANGERS. Do you guys understand how this team is treated? They have the best facilities, they stay in the BEST hotels, they have the best of EVERYTHING, are completely coddled. Not every NHL team can even come close to how spoiled the Rangers are. It completely shows in their play.

Youth is the only thing that can save them. Young, SUPER talented guys who are hungry, and not into the glitz and glamour of being a New York Ranger, just knowing how to put the ****ing puck in the back of the net, all while having the security of the best goaltender in the league to bail you out when need be.

I could go on forever about much more, but just wanted to share some of my thoughts on this game, this team, and this season in general.

 

[Samuel Culper III]

I'm 26 and 5'10. Maybe the Rangers can bring me in as an 'undrafted free agent' to spice up the offense and get the PP going. That exact gameplan usually works. Or maybe I'm too tall.

 

[Doctyl]

What is Torts motivating? He's motivating Sather to go out and make a stupid unnecessary trade like Dan Boyle. He's motivating fans to jump off of high structures.

but....we need a PPQB

 

[BB58]

This.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

If the Rangers didn't have the year they did last year I think it's safe to say we would be in coach firing territory at this point.

 

[Riverdale]

Cally with the diving hat trick. Never like seeing that to be honest.

What I liked seeing less were the PP "attempts".

And LOL at declaring Miller a bust. This place.

Not a bust, but DOES NOT belong in the NHL right now. That much is clear

 

[LittleKev6D9]

He is 20 now i think

Well then that changes everything. You "think" he's 20. Sorry to question to your expertise.

 

[Leetch2McDonagh27]

He doesn't have Miller or Boyle on the back of his jersey.

correctomundo......

 

[Heyoooo*]

Earliest Torts is fired is the offseason/October, but the chants need to start now.

Stone Age Hockey.

It's a combination of poor play by the players and poor coaching. Our players are playing uninspired hockey, but it's not like Torts and Sullivan are putting them in the best position to succeed. Like you said, it's easier to fire the coach than the entire team...so the coach it is.

Do you have JAM?

 

[jniklast]

Remember when we had Pascal Dupuis? Good times, good times

Two games, wasn't it?

 

[mike14]

I love how much more populated the PGT after losses are than those after wins. Where do all you people live? Woodworkville?

Are you sure that is even a real place...?

We need some "Invincible" action to go down.

If nothing else, a team of 18 fans turned players and Lundqvist in net would surely produce a better EFFORT than what we saw tonight. Even if the score would be 100-0

I suspect there are some posters here who if they got a shot to play for the Rangers would die on the ice for the good of the team.

 

[NYRSchrute217]

Looks like Miller is yet another one of Gordie Clark's big-time early round busts. Sanguinetti over Giroux, DeZotto over Carlson, McIlrath over Tarasenko. Frankly, I don't trust anyone the Rangers have in the system.

Del Zotto has been our best dman besides Staal this year. I'd still take him over Carlson. Too early to judge the Miller pick.

 

[SaveByLundqvist]

I hope Dany Heatley drives the team bus to Montreal.

 

[Machinehead]

Guys, I need a hug

Lundqvist really upset and frustrated after the game: "It's really disappointing...I better leave it at that"

Hank pissed.
