Did the Rangers NOT score their only goal on the PP? Let's cut the bull shit. Gauthier is not a difference maker and would not have done anything to change the outcome of the game. No one suffered a serious injury despite Lindgren getting blasted in the face with a puck while on the bench...next game is tomorrow.
And now 11 of the Rangers 13 losses have been one goal games. This team can hang with any team in the NHL when they're forecheck is on, totally outplayed the Caps for 55 minutes but didn't capitalize on opportunities.
All those one goal L's tell me young team needs to learn how to win in the NHL, which is logical, not oh no we better fire the big bad coach. It's so disgustingly transparent, and these guys don't even see it. With Quinn it is knock and nitpick everything he does. Not being logical and saying young rebuilding team, need time to mature and learn how to win NHL games. Funny how we saw none of that last night. None of the nitpicky whining. We even saw some holding the players accountable - shocker. Different man behind the bench, same scratches, same lines, same result. Young team needs to grow and become consistent from game to game, and within games. Not about the coach at this point.
Chuck, I know U don’t think with your diff man behind the bench, same scratches, same results nonsense that knoblach is doing anything but following Quinn’s demands as to who to play. Would love for him to actually make those decisions.
Oh mel, you walked right into that one. Of course I don't think that, and of course I know this is Quinn's team, but you guys don't...LOL. All I saw during the 9-0 win was oh look at what a real coach can do. This is a clear sign the team quit on Quinn. The team looks so much better with Knoblauch behind the bench. Then last night it's team looks good with no Quinn. So which is it mel? Looking great in 9-0 win, Quinn's team or they do it in spite of Quinn and that game shows they quit on Quinn? Looking good last night without Quinn, or same result showing young team inconsistent learning to win in the NHL regardless of the coach? Once again, you guys want to spin it to fit the narrative you want. As usual - good = they quit on Quinn/credit the players/new coach behind bench. Bad = blame Quinn for everything. And this is still Quinn's team, Knoblauch just following his orders. So easy and predictable yet again. Thanks for playing along mel.
Knoblauch isn't making the lineup. He's following orders. During the game it is different. I don't think for a second Blackwell would be on the first line if Gauthier was dressing.
Hhhhhmmmmm, once again I'm confused. Is it Quinn's team or is it Knoblauch's team? Oh wait I get it, when they win it's Knoblauch's team. He pulled the strings. Team quit on Quinn. When they lose it's oh come on it's Quinn's team still. Knoblauch doesn't make the lineups. Blame Quinn. Have to love the agenda driven fake fans on this one. Really couldn't be more transparent, although it has been transparent to me from day one. Last night was another game by a young inconsistent team learning how to win in the NHL. That's not on the coach, and it hasn't been all season. The fact that we are where we are, poised to take the next step into playoffs/contender status next season, is a testament to Quinn/Gorton/JD.
I will let it go when you guys stop the inconsistent nonsense. You cannot have it both ways, and that's all you guys try and do. Watch the games and root for the team you claim you are a fan of, and stop the fire the coach BS post after post. The team is in year 3 of a self-proclaimed rebuild, we need patience through this season at least, not blaming the coach for every little thing when the team is clearly not ready to win yet, and no one picked them/expected them to do so this season outside of the unrealistic fans. I expect that from your king, the guy who started a fire Quinn thread 4 months after he was hired, I don't expect that from what I thought were reasonable fans.
