Post-Game Talk: sieve

[Unpredictable1]

There are a good 20 more years I reckon before we lose the Neanderthal coaches and league will be a better place.

Oooh but that officiating. Especially come playoff time...

We're nothing without Shesterkin, Fox, Panarin, Zibanejad, Kreider, Trouba, Copp and Lindgren!

Honestly with the team we rolled out there tonight. It's better off to not play.

I know they got spoke the other night with the injuries but I don't believe in taking the foot off the gas pedal. Play everybody until the last game unless they are nursing an injury.

Copp and Panarin I assume are nursing, but I wouldn't have sat anybody else.

I just believe in staying in form and not letting up. It's hard to just turn it back on in a week. Okay supervisor. Friday between John and Maddie tomorrow he gets court mandated visitation and I third party needs to be present. Can you do that?

Pretty sure almost, if not the whole team, will be in the lineup on Friday. Today just made a lot of sense to hold guys out, no reason to have them play in back to back games now.

What I wanted to say about Georgiev has been already said….with far fewer expletives ……and much, much more kindness that I can muster at this time.

The kid line is going to get eaten alive in the playoffs. None of them are ready for primetime.

That’s how you get better. Lafrenière, in no way shape or form, should be on the fourth line right now, so he better keep the kids intact. Goodrow-Rooney-Hunt is a fine fourth line.

 

[Anthony5967]

They played a preseason lineup minus a few regulars and people are having a meltdown. Suddenly Laf is a bust again, Kakko, too. No offense, some need to get their head examined lol. If the sack of **** goaltender could stop a shot and stop going to his knees every second, they win this game by a goal, at least. Since the Carolina shutout he’s rocking an .890 sv. That’s dogs***.

 

[Anthony5967]

Somehow our third and fourth lines still might be the worst in the league and our 3rd D pairing definitely is. Our backup goalie is the worst athlete in the history of professional sports.

Some pretty irrational takes coming from you. Georgiev really ****** a lot of people up last night. You can see it in the thread. People having full on Bobby Boucher when he was getting taunted by the offensive lineman “hey Waterboy” meltdowns.

Matty Beniers already looks better than any of our kids for anyone who's watched Seattle. It's depressing. Why can't we draft and develop forwards?

Teams don't develop players. They develop themselves.

I’m surprised at the amount of people that actually gave a shit about the outcome of this game

Some people love to scream that the sky is falling.

It could cost us home ice for every other round of the playoffs

Play your regular lineup and some complain that they should sit to avoid injury.

Sit some of them and people have reasons why that's a terrible decision.

Oddly, there is some overlap in these two groups.

 

[chosen]

I really hope this strategy of resting guys this past week doesn’t bite us in the ass come playoff time. We’re essentially going to go in with zero momentum

Momentum usually means zero going into the playoffs.

Reavo roughs up Wilson

Reaves has spent an entire season roughing up no one and proving, once again, that deterrence doesn't exist.

“The mountain that is Kravtsov wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for the valleys that are Laf & Kakko.”

On your death bed, you'll be talking of what could have been with Kravtsov.

Kinkaid is better than Georgiev.

The only reason Georgiev isn't in the AHL is because he's a "bigger name", he makes more money and sending him down could become a negative focal point through the media.

And with the season we're having the management doesn't want to risk f***ing uo the great spirit of our team.

Either that or Georgiev have incriminating photos of everyone. Because he shouldn't be in the NHL at this point.

Kinkaid is better than just about no one, including Georgiev.

 

[chosen]

I think they need Reaves back as well. No coincidence they miss the playoffs after trading him.

Even though Reaves often sat in the playoffs for Vegas? Yeah, he's a real difference-maker.

Sarcasm?

 

[SML2]

Every other round? How about we focus on winning the first one?

 

[JHS]

I won't even trash this team or that traffic cone in net. I will just say one thing and one thing only:


If Justin Braun is not on the third pair during the Playoffs, it'll be an absolutely stupid decision. He is BY FAR the more competent defenseman right now between him, Nemeth and Schneider.

You want to pair Braun with Schneider? Great. With Nemeth to keep the L-R consistency? Fine. But you cannot keep Braun out of the lineup. He is way more reliable and consistent than either Schneider or Nemeth.

Braun is absolutely terrible. Like in every way imaginable. Terrible passer( he passed the puck so badly last night at one point he actually passed it back to Georgiev, has zero first step and essentially is 10 steps behind the play. He was brought in here to be a depth dfensimen and an insurance policy in case a top 6 defensemen goes down. He won't be in the top 6 no matter what.

Your comment about his consistency is equally off. He's played what 5 games? How can you possibly say he's more consistent with that sample size?

 

[JHS]

Somehow our third and fourth lines still might be the worst in the league and our 3rd D pairing definitely is. Our backup goalie is the worst athlete in the history of professional sports.

This could be the worst comment in a string of amazingly bad comments after this game. The worst in the league?? Stop- please come back to earth. The Rangers have incredible depth and essentially are scratching 4 forwards who would play on 75% of the leagues rosters....

The defense comment is equally terrible- Schneider looks like a seasoned pro at such a young age and Nemmeth is certainly serviceable.

 

[mas0764]

The kid line is going to get eaten alive in the playoffs. None of them are ready for primetime.

Should split up the line. Vatrano should be the guy that gives some firepower to the third line. Lafreniere back to the top line. Copp Panarin Kakko. Strome with Chytil on line three.

Goodrow to line 4.

 

[mas0764]

They were absolutely f***ing awful. Of course this organization drafts two busts in the top 2. That's what it's like being a Rangers fan. One cup in 82 years.

Also what happens when you cut off rebuilds too early and import a bunch of stiffs with no skill merely because “toffness.”

People as a whole have an enormous issue with instant gratification. Its gotten way worse though.

The only kid that worries me is Chytil. He just lacks something. Needs to train with someone or two this offseason on a few things. Also he needs to dump the damn puck more.

Braun was pretty solid last night and has been solid overall. Not sure how you come away with “absolutely terrible”

 

[Lays]

Chytil+Georgiev need to be gone this off-season. They don’t have the mentality you want from a 3C and backup goalie.

Bring in a two way 3C that can take defensive pressure off of the Zibanejad line

Bring in Charlie Lindgren (Ryan’s brother) as our backup goalie

Kakko is next to go if he doesn’t change his mentality
