    I suspect I’ll be shutting it off in the second period as usual.

    Zibanejad should not play another game in the Rangers uniform again.

    Only took me seven minutes before I shut the game off this time.

    $11.5 million for a mid goalie

    I still kinda want to watch games but I’ve been missing first periods lately. Every time I look up the score they’re down by a goal or two. I don’t even bother to turn on the game then. The fans need to stop attending the games. Fuck these losers

    For $11.5M and a NMC Igor needs to be giving up no more than 2 goals every single game. He just keeps proving that Drury is a fucking incompetent moron and overpaid and gave a NMC to a goalie that will handicap this franchise for the next 8 years. I’m thinking Drury wears a helmet 24/7 with how retarded he is.

    When's the last time they had a lead?

    Zibanejad is just abysmal.

    I heard he’s willing to wave his no trade clause for the right situation which is hilarious because who the fuck would want him right now.

    Nobody unless they ate 1/2 the contract, or gave them 2 1sts with him.

    That's the reason why this idiot behind the bench should be fired. Rewards Zibanadouche as an extra forward at the end of the game instead of players who actually played well in the game. He is such vet loving fucking loser.

    Zibanejad should’ve been benched and scratched a month ago. The fact that he hasn’t probably will cost this coach his job.

    At least the game was entertaining, I don't understand Lav's fixation with this stiff Borgen let alone playing him with Miller. Drury fiddles while the Rangers are crashing and burning.

    It's a time of the year when moves don't usually happen, but as each game goes by and the Rangers are more and more of a joke, I do wonder how much longer until we see some impactful moves. The Rangers are 4-15 in their past 19 games, and since Nov 21 the 8 points the Rangers have are by far the least in the NHL (the Sabres have 13 points and have won 3 straight). That is 6 weeks of crap. The Rangers are the worst team in the league, period.

    Everybody should be fired at this point. While I 100% believe this mess is on Drury, I also do not like the way Lav has been coaching. His refusal to scratch Zibanejad, he seems to be doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result (the definition of insanity). I don't think he's dealt with this collapse with a full grasp of what is going on here, and what changes he needed to make. So, while big picture this is not his fault, the team's fate was sealed once Drury decided to keep the tired stale old core together, Lav has not helped the situation. Both Drury and Lav should be fired, but I have a feeling we'll only see Lav go, and the main in over his head incompetent culprit will continue in his roles.

    I believe Mancini is in the AHL "gaining experience".

    No. They sent him to the Pack for further development which at this point is the right thing to do because the team sucks and will be in the lottery.

    They can also let Mancini play and get over 20 minutes a game instead of playing scrubs.
