It's been a good day for the Rangers as the Wings and Bruins both lost. If they can win tonight that would mean at least 3 of the 5 teams ahead of them lost today. The Sens play at the Panthers tonight, so they could lose as well, and the Isles play at the Wild tonight. This is such a big game for the Rangers, a win and they will stay within shouting distance with the other teams losing today.
The Rangers need to tank and lose every game possible. Fuck this “just sneak into the playoffs” shit. This team is trash, run by a trash owner, put together by a trash GM and coached by a trash coach. This team needs to be totally imploded. They need an entire rebuild, not a quick fix like you think. This team is poisoned and they need to rebuild from the ground up to get rid of the deep seeded poison.
First goal K’Andre is in front of goal covering empty space. Second goal forwards are lazy sacks of shit and not back checking. Our coach’s consequence for that? Put them right back out there and let them continue to fuck it all up. There’s no accountability. There’s no systems. It’s literally beer league hockey out there with this squad.
Yeah can some please explain to Me why Vesey is in top 6. This moron behind the bench is a complete idiot
I posted that PRIOR to Lazyfreniere again coasting back on defense and not picking up his man....wow.
Just send his ass to AHL and let him rot there. Fox can go too. Moron always looks to pass and it ends up going the other way almost all the time
Love Valiquette’s analysis: “ it starts with the older guys and then it funnels its way through the lineup and it reaches the young guys and then bad habits seem to be repeated” when describing Lafreniere’s poor back checking in the 3rd goal by Columbus. Stellar
Big win in an almost must win situation. As I stated before the game, Zibanejad needs to be a C and Cuylle needs to be moved up, kudos to Lav for actually doing the right thing. I also think Kaliyev should be in the lineup over Brod, as he's a better fit for the 3rd line (Brod is a 4th line player - period), another good move by Lav. And I also don't like Vesey above the 4th line, but it's him or Smith, and while I would go Smith in the top 9 over Vesey, I cannot go crazy over that move as Smith stinks, a terrible move and waste of draft picks by Drury. Still too many mistakes, Laf has gone backwards, but got the job done to at least keep hope alive going into the break. I will also add, I loved Micheletti tonight, he was very critical of their poor back checking and lack of defensive effort, and he slammed Zibanejad many times for refusing to shoot. If they fire Lav, maybe they should make Joe the coach. He'll call out the laziness and Zibanejad/Fox for refusing to shoot.
