Imagine Fox' body language if he doesn't have his BFF Lindgren on the team?
Bottom of the barrel garbage. I have as much confidence in this team as your average Sabres fan. We're not any better, we just have a better goalie. Seriously f*** Drury sideways. This team is absolute trash.

I want it on the record that I wanted Lindgren traded after the '22 playoffs.
And the Rangers suck. Would rather be a Sens fan, they're a vastly better team.

By the grace of Igor it's 2 points. Back to back games giving up more than 40 shots. Not sustainable.

He can f*** off with his skating 50% effort all game, too. I refuse to believe he's this slow.

Happy Igor won. But what a disgrace. At no point did the Rangers dominate for even the smallest of stretches. No sustained zone time. Beaten to every puck. Hope and wish passes. Outshot 2 to 1. Awful.

Fox has ben very average lately.
You say that now but I’ve been watching 7-8 years of unbearable hockey and this team is still .500
Not out of the woods yet.
Sens played well this game but Rangers will dominate their games.
Not many teams can have an “off” night and still win games. You guys are lucky.

I’d go Lindgren-Schneider and Jones-Trouba next game for the bottom two pairs.
It’s quite clear that the current bottom two pairs are an issue and to me the main culprit to the recent struggles. Neither pair can reliably move the puck up ice and very importantly both of these pairs give up the blue line like that’s the goal.
Free zone entries every time either pair is on the ice and it leads to extended time turning and chasing and extra skating which leads to more D zone time which leads to more defending which tires you out and leads to breakdowns and all the shots and chances against. It’s quite clear.

Hopefully, Trouba and Lindgren are gone by the TDL.
Hopefully this offseason, Zibs retires and finds his new calling in life: making cashew paste and growing cruelty free oats.

And Trouba don't get me started

I've been saying this for years, I don't know why we don't have a bumper player to ease pressure off the boards in our own zone. For us, it's literally panic ring around the boards each time hoping it's topped by our player, which, if it is, it's an automatic turnover and taking back in the neutral zone and it comes right back in. The only way we get clean breakouts is if the other team is literally changing.

Lindgren coming back really upset the balance and puck moving of the previous pairs.

Certainly one of the NHL games of all time
We're a better team without Lindgren.
I don't know what you guys expect to happen when the coach's plan was to match Brady's line with Trouba and Lindgren all night. After that disaster last game, Lav said screw you guys, we are winning this game 2 - 1 hell or high water.

Thank you. We're very proud of him and like to show him off to other teams.
Drury is trying to sign him and Lav is designing game plans to make him look like the best goalie in NHL history.
