Instead of pulling Hank, AV should pull himself off the bench and choose a 5 year old to coach them. They'd probably do a better job then this hack.
who cares. I said it a week ago. This team is gonna get bounced in the first round. might as well choke away the playoff spot than getting embarrased.
Back to back disgusting performances against crappy teams. Buffalo blows a lot of leads but the effort is pathetic.
I'm just laughing here because it's always the SAME bullshit mistakes and Joe and Sam out there sucking off the team saying "other than a few plays blah blah blah." This team has been outplayed, yet again, by a non playoff team. It's almost ashame this team will be making the playoffs because the way they're playing right now, they're not deserving of a spot. If not for that hot start to the season, winning games they shouldn't have, they'd be battling for the last spot with the Flyers and Red Wings. Every time you think they might put it all together they go and remind you that they have no fucking clue how to handle a forechecking team and just play the puck around the boards and into the opposition continuously with no adjustment.
LOL... you gotta love this coaching staff. Their adjustment is just switch d pairings. Mcd now is playing with Boyle.
The best example of how you know AV has zero idea of what he is doing and what he should do? Down 3-0 and he's got the 4th line out there almost every other shift. While they've been providing energy, they can't score. You need to get goals to win you fucking retard. An energy line is useless at this time down 3. Moron.
He cut their icetime in beginning of the second after the third goal and the Rangers started playing much better. As soon as the sabres scored the fourth goal. He decided to increase their icetime.
You gotta give the Rangers credit. When they suck, they really fucking suck. This will be a super quick exit from the playoffs, that's for sure. Unless they can literally have all the coaches become hospitalized with an illness so ANYONE else but the three stooges behind the bench are coaching them, there's just no way this team wins a series. Wife will be happy at least. Quick playoff beard and then have to shave after about a week. Oh well. Here's hoping that they figure shit out and remember that they need to play defense.
Hey guys, just wanted to check in, see how everybody is doing. Interesting observation. Yet the 3 guys on the fourth line are listed as having the least amount of shifts of any Ranger this game. Every other forward has played more than them. The scorekeepers must be messing up or something. Hm, that is odd. I didnt hear the coaches say this is the only adjustment they have or will make. Did I miss them saying that? Ive noticed right wing pressure for one but I'm probably seeing things. Great post. Why are people who can so clearly see the future wasting their time on a message board? Shit I'd be out there living it up with my lottery winnings, but alas, I do not have such superpowers and can't predict the future with such certainty. Unfortunately for me, I'm still a common man who is constantly surprised by what happens in the NHL playoffs. Im a sucker, I know. Good talk guys, this is a quality thread. Great sports talk like this is what keeps people coming back. Until next time friends!
How's the view of your colon though? Seeing as how you have your head so far up your own ass, I figured you'd have a great view of it. Pretty dark I imagine in there though. Do your red and blue Rangers homer glasses brighten it up though? You can return to your ass now and keep thinking this team has shown you anything to win a series, let alone several to win a Cup.
This is why you don't piss away draft pick after draft pick and prospects for go for it now deals like the team that continually sucked in the 80's did all the time. You wake up one day and your team is older, slow, and looks like crap against younger players. That is what we are seeing now. Basically, we are fucked barring a miracle.
Them not trading Yandle was an AWFUL decision. Going for it or not, they gave up too much for him to just lose him for nothing. He makes great offensive plays, but he also makes awful defensive plays.
What holds this team back, outside of being a bit slow thinking is a below average transition game. They just don't make teams pay enough.
