Tanner Glass being on the team for any reason at all and AV's treatment of JT Miller, unlike anything I've ever seen from a Rangers coach in recent history, the two go hand in hand perfectly. Miller makes one ****ing mistake and Tanner Glass takes his spot for 5 games. It takes him literally GIVING THE GAME AWAY to get him out of the line-up. And to the surprise of no one, we win almost every game he doesn't play. But the second this team loses, he's back in, like ****ing clockwork. AV's absurd desire to keep Glass in the line-up as often as possible is a trickle down effect throughout the whole line-up. The bottom 6 does a cute little cupid shuffle every time Glass comes back in to accommodate the undeserving scratch. Whatever line Glass is on (usually D. Moore's line) becomes useless in all three zones, and this is really detrimental because AV leans on D. Moore A LOT in defensive situations. AV KNOWS he sucks too, he gets by far the least ES time of any player any game he plays. Glass' presence is a big reason that the Rangers often have lines with no identity or consistency.

He's impossibly bad, the absolute worst player in the NHL.

Also, the Rangers line combinations usually aggravate me, I don't think they drive nearly enough possession, but we've won so many damn games I can't really complain.

And this isn't really team related, but if McDonagh would like to yank his head out of the depths of his *******, he's more than welcome to.

Sorry you have to experience Glass. Now imagine him on a line with Craig Adams. Now imagine that line getting an offensive zone face off after a TV timeout, against the opposing team's #1 unit, all while a young, skilled winger, on a team lacking talented wingers (even more so at the time), is scratched.

I'll see your bet on Tanner Glass.

And I'll raise you this

Sweeping Edmonton was pretty annoying. Moss scoring his first goal of the season in a must-lose game was also irritating.

The Canucks absolutely horrific powerplay efforts, and their lack of scoring this season in general. Since the beginning of the season they've only scored 4 more goals than they've let in as of tonight. That's the worst differential of any team currently in a playoff spot. If they don't get this figured out in the next couple weeks, they simply aren't making the playoffs. End of story.

I find it annoying that the Blues don't get any attention or respect. If they are playing against one of the big 6, then they git a few nods or stick taps on nhl.com. Their game against Nashville last week (29 Jan) was #1 vs #3 in the standings, but the front page of NHL.com was MTL(13th)-NYR(7th), then BOS-NYI, with no mention of STL-NSH.

I have no complaints about the team though. they are in the mids of a 12-0-1 run right now, have caught Nashville in the standings, and are 2 points behind Anaheim with a game in hand. They aren't playing as well as they were 2 weeks ago (might have something to do with playing 3 games in 84 hours) but they are still getting points.

Like every other year, we will see where they go come April. Looking forward to the ride. #LGB

Top offense in the league.

Mediocre power play.

Also, backup goaltending, but that looks to be solved.

Alex has told the story many times that it was incorrect back then but nobody bothered to correct it. and it wasn't his Father, Frank was his uncle. I believe he is now the coach for the Niagara Canucks. Frank also played goal for the Penguins perhaps? can't remember which team

That the Leafs continue to not employ anyone named:

Tavares, Stamkos, Getzlaf, Perry, Crosby, Duchene, Kopitar, Seguin, Bergeron
Doughty, Seabrook, Keith, Weber, or Babcock, and that they won't get to draft McDavid.

............. and they keep losing.

That is all.
