For some reason the game isn't on any of the HD channels...not sure what that is all about. Just get thru this game without any injuries or PP goals allowed and Ill be happy.
Stepan HAS to be traded in the offseason. He's worthless. I'd take a 4th round pick for him. He can't win a faceoff, can't score a goal, can't win a board battle. He literally excels at doing NOTHING well. Glad he's getting $6.5M and a NTC. God our front office is moronic lol. Nice to see the PP and the PK working. Especially with these god awful refs lmao. This is the type of PP disparity we should get ready for against Montreal, especially in Montreal. Here's to a great 3rd period!!
Hopefully gorton realizes this shit cant go on next year and fire this worthless coach and get rid of half of this roster in the offseason.
LOL...of course messiah is completely ignoring embarrassing defensive breakdowns in the third and second periods. The pens dont even have the full roster out there.
It's cute how you think this team regression every year under AV is still ok if we back into the playoffs. We all wanted Torts fired when he had this team performing this poorly, yet we are giving AV a pass why?
LMAO. Hank gets beat like a rented mule in the shootout. Thank god there's no shootout in the playoffs cuz where he used to excel, he's now awful. By the way Messiah, tell me more about Stepan. He scored in theee straight you say? After going scoreless in how many??? And now how many games will he once again be a no show in??? He's overpaid. Plain and simple. For $6.5M we could use that and sign Shattenkirk. That's why I trade Stepan for ANYTHING. Just get his cap hit off the team before that NTC kicks in and he's unmovable.
Go look at Stepan's numbers for over his career and then look at his numbers this year. What are you expecting? I'd love to have Crosby or Tavares centering the first line but it is what it is.
Perfect result tonight I think. Now it is 99.9% official we'll play Montreal. And let's be real here, the D zone lapses this team has had for 2 years now are alarming. At least some of that has to be on the coaches. And let's also be real here and all say the Rangers need to play much better than they have the past 4-6 weeks to have a shot to beat Price and Montreal. That's real. They certainly can do it as Montreal is nothing special, but the way this team has played for a while now, they'll lose in 6 games tops. Hope they can flip that switch when the games matter again, that's what we're all hoping for if we believe the Rangers can/will win that series.
Honestly, stop speaking 717. You're embarrassing yourself. T'his is not one of the top teams in the league. Don't ever say that again. This is a team who pretty much every creditable analyst in the sport has said is one and done in the playoffs and is not a serious playoff team. Yet, you continue to spout stupid crap. Shut it.
Then save your pathetic keyboard warrior routine and get ready for your NFL Draft viewing. Telling somebody to shut it like you're the ruler of anything. You're a small little nothing.
Because he's a loser in life so has nothing better to do but to try and drag everyone else down to his level of misery.
