GDT: Rangers vs. Penguins 3/14/18

[GoAwayPanarin]

Can anyone paraphrase everything that Mackenzie said earlier about AV? I walked in when it was half way thru

Rangers are going to sit down and discuss the direction of the team moving forward and get AV's thoughts.

Everything is pointing towards him being gone.

Basically, before Gorton cans him, Gorton will give him the chance to walk away from the rebuild as not what he signed up for when he signed the extension.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

To think the leafs got in that game because their goalie is a goof

 

[Kovalev27]

Miller for Namestnikov was an AV move. That scares me. Horrible deal that looks like it was for the current coach

Basically the Rangers have not decided to move on from him. He thinks he will be around.

Not much is really different from the last game for the Rangers.

They can prey on vulnerable teams, but they don’t look good versus quality teams.

No it was a move for a more defensive forward that can actually play center in the NHL

I think it's more likely a money move down the line. Brooks mentioned JT wanting something in the mid 5s. I wouldn't want to pay him that much.

 

[JT Kreider]

This isn't the case. I was anti-rebuild the whole time. I still am. Generally everyone has maintained their position. The poor poster quoted was just making a completely reasonable observation which didn't in any way compromise whatever their original position was.

True.

I also think we are in better shape at the start of our rebuild then most other teams that went full scorched earth.

For example when the Devils hired Shero as the official start of their rebuild (Lou was just dicking around his last few years, not rebuilding but not competing either) or compared to the Leafs when they drafted Nylander, the official start of their rebuild.

Just because AV would agree with a move doesn’t mean it was an AV move.

Actually I think it was because of the extra RFA year

 

[Edge]

As I’ve said, I wouldn’t have moved Miller.

However, I think it’s incorrect to assume the Rangers sold low and settled on Namestnikov as the return. I get the sense that they think pretty highly of him.

Ok, what's with Miller and onion rings??

I don't think that is an AV move.

 

[Ghost of jas]

Not Susan Sarandon.

No one ever expects...Susan Sarandon!!!

 

[EdJovanovski]

Zibanejad has looked REALLY good this game

 

[Irishguy42]

Kreider pls

 

[trilobyte]

Penguins just strategically double-teamed Zuccs and just nullified him. Not blaming Zuccs, there was nothing there so he was just about to shoot but...

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Marc Staal appreciation post: he’s been through f***ing heaven and hell in his time here but he still goes out and tries his best to do what the coach tells him to. He has his faults but his stick work is still top notch

Zucc doesn’t know where the shoot button is

 

[GregSirico]

Of course San Jose ties the game v EDM.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Jimmy vesey is so hot or cold.

 

[Irishguy42]

Yo Buch that pass was so good

His controller is unplugged.
