Post-Game Talk: Sixty Nine

[mike14]

Kind of a weird game. the intensity seemed down all night and we really struggled in controlling the puck, but we also generated some excellent chances and just got stoned by Hellebuyck. The 2nd period was really bad though.
Good for Laf getting another two pts, hitting 20 gaols and now career highs in goals and assists. He legit looks like a threat on almost every shift.
Cuylle had a strong game and deserved more minutes, he had some excellent looks.
Kreider looked like he slept through most of that and Kakko looked like he doesn't want to be near ice of any kind.
Jones could do with some more minutes, we need the precision puck movement

1st and 3rd were good, second period was ass.

Won’t give this game another thought.

It wasn't a bad game. It wasn't a great game, but the Jets are a good team.

There was nothing particular about that game. One more of their shots went in.

If you lose sleep over that game, I don't know what to tell you.

The Rangers were getting whatever they wanted at 6 on 5 and yet for some inexplicable reason Zibanejad opted for the 60 foot unscreened one timer perfectly placed for Hellebuyck to kick right to his defenseman. That was just stupid, hold onto that puck and let the lanes open and if you’re going to force a shot at least wait for traffic. You’re not beating Hellebuyck from literally the blue line on an unscreened slap shot.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Rempe better play these next 2 games against physical opponents. Get Johnny Pierogi outta there.

 

[IronBloodedLion]

Zibanejads reliance on the one timer has made him so one dimensional. He has that great shot, but it’s useless if everyone knows it’s coming, and it was not a wise shot at that moment.

Kreider was a dog today, and I mean that as an insult. That turnover and his total lack of effort to get back on defense were pitiful. At least pretend to get back and stop the play.

Other than that good effort. Can’t win them all. On to Boston.

How bad has Zibs been?

Laffy Taffy only has 2 less goals.

The shot made no sense he had to know it could easily produce a rebound to the Jets.

Its incredibly infuriating to see such a lazy selfish play by Zibanejad winding up for a one timer when there is only 35 seconds left and you have no one in front of the net against a hot goalie who is also a big guy. Just an asinine decision.

 

[17futurecap]

5:55 played together at five on five tonight, seems like a pair you would want out there as much as possible going forward.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Is all that Zib wants to do is blast useless one timers?

uhh yeah.

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

Zib was never going to score on a shot from that deep with no chance of deflection or screen on a goalie like that but I think sometimes with that one timer he sees red and can’t help himself.

Space Jam numbers.

Fox is going to be the next Kreider when Kreider retires.

"This guy is good so let me criticize him over some stupid shit to show everyone what a special boy I am."

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

f*** Kreider.

f*** Zibanejad.

Those two need to figure it out. Zibanejad taking that one timer off the faceoff with 35 seconds left was the icing on the cake for the woeful performance of the Wonder Twins tonight

Laviolette won't say a single word to either of them.


They're teflon. Kreider has at least had his good moments.

Zib has been a joke all season, the playoffs are coming fast and he hasn't improved one bit.

 

[2014nyr]

a little surprised literally grabbing someone by the head to prevent them from getting to the puck still wasn't enough for the refs to actually make a call on win but ah well. overall they let both teams play, and our pp hasn't exactly lit it up lately...but letting win play straight up prison rules late is 1 a sign playoffs are around the corner and 2 a good thing for the team to be exposed to for the way the game changes when they start.

overall can't be upset. rangers certainly weren't their best, but the effort was there and they had more than enough chances to win this game. win is a good team though, they benefitted from having almost every bounce go their way but they also played a strong road game and their goaler was phenomenal. nobody wins em all. need to keep in mind how many games the rangers have played lately, and are now down 2 top 4 dmen - along with what sounds like more than a few guys playing a bit banged up. you can't win em all. they played well enough to win but not well enough to take the win - bad bounces are gonna happen, hot goalies are gonna happen. on to the next.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

I thought it was an even game overall

Hearing Rempe chants break out throughout the arena multiple times is definitely a trip though lol

 

[Machinehead]

Here's another angle of the non-call on Kreider

 

[Gardner McKay]

Went almost exactly as I expected

Was off on the Eng by a minute tho lolView attachment 838595

They're not a top team. They are bottom third in almost every important category and are buoyed by a goaltender going god mode. Basically the Rangers for the first 8 years of Lundqvists tenure here.

 

[Alluckks]

A bit hamstrung by the refs deciding penalties don't exist in this game

What did I miss in the GDT, from the OP of this thread seems like some fun/not so fun

 

[duhmetreE]

we lose when opposing teams 1C shits all over our 1C in terms of production

we also easily score 2-3 more goals against a non-walrus goalie

No blaming refs. If they played better the Rangers win.

 

[Leonardo87]

Not really upset with the results. Jets just don’t give up a lot of goals, and have a Goalie playing in god mode. Shesty had little to no room for error. Even giving up 2 goals would have been a challenge. Move on to the next game..

 

[Harbour Dog]

Love that the 6v5 was just our PP1 + Lafreniere, and Lafreniere was far and away the most dangerous guy on the ice for the entirety of it.

Maybe by 2027 he'll get a chance to actually be on PP1
