LOL...we have so jumped the shark in here. Hank let's up a soft goal, we allow one legit goal that shouldn't have been stopped, the Devs have 2 shots in the 3rd period, the Devs have 22 shots in the game, we have 2 goals again, special teams awful again, and yet we get on the D. Ho hum...another day on the Rangers board....
It's a team game but Girardi looked bad on the second goal. There was a glaring movement issue when he should've easily cut the skater off.
Because for some fucking idiotic reason, this PK is COACHED to leave a man WIDE FUCKING OPEN in front of the net. Arneil is KILLING this team. Fire him and replace him with a trained monkey. No difference.
LOL...Hank let's up a soft goal...DAMN YOU D...LOL. Special teams special teams special teams. Is what it is. Nothing to see here.
Let's keep giving this coaching staff pass after pass after pass for their ineffective game plans. By all means. This is a coaching issue, with AV/Arneil REFUSING to adjust their schemes and lines. It's a goddamn joke. This team is better off not making the playoffs so they can avoid getting embarrassed by teams that actually have good coaching and players with heart.
FUCKING PENALTY KILL...cant win a faceoff...broken stick...fucking listening to this bullshit on my first late night during tax season...FUCKING HATE LOSING TO THE SHITTY DEVILS!
Steve Zipay was asked...why isn't Yandel on the 1st pp unit...he basically said..no fucking clue...yet..here we go another pp opportunity...or lack of
So the defense falls asleep on the PK, let's give them a pass. But the offense fails to score on a PP let's crucify them? Why not treat both EQUALLY?? They both are fucking awful and it is ONE COACH responsible for both. I think it's obvious where the issue with our special teams is, but we refuse to blame the coaching staff.
Taking some time off from the boards. Hopefully the ship will get righted. I cannot take the craziness in here anymore. It is so over the top and out of control. Hopefully Gorton will get this team so O...that is badly needed...in addition to fixing this awful PK...maybe we should have kept Stoll huh.... PK has been a disgrace. That paired with the O has killed this team. Anyway...hopefully things get turned around. We'll see.
You are the ONLY ONE who refuses to see that the defense is an issue. Everyone on this board agreed that the offense is awful. YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THE DEFENSE IS A-OK. You're the ostrich of the board with your head buried in the sand. Enjoy your break from here, because, news flash, even if we score 3 goals in this game ITS STILL ONLY A TIE GAME. At some point, you need to look at this team AS A WHOLE and realize that from top to bottom this team is shit. Awful forwards, awful defense, awful special teams. And this is ALL AVs system now. These guys know his system. They've played it long enough and have been here for enough time that it's not new. At some point, you've got to wonder and look at a coachs track record. AV has a track record of RUINING goalies. Looks like that's continuing here.
Lets look at the reality of the situation with this team. They have four top six guys in Nash, Stepan, Hayes and Kreider all badly underachieving. If you think this roster could withstand that you're on another planet.
correct me if im wrong...but 2 of the 3 goals were PP goals for the devils...so that realy isn't on the defense core per say
