I’ll tell you what- When i can’t sleep, i will be watching way more King games. Im with them until July.
Drury just released a letter per a post I saw on Reddit. 😂
Saying what?
A Message from Chris Drury to Our Fans:
We wanted to take a moment to connect with our loyal and passionate fanbase. We know and feel your disappointment with how the season has gone to this point. We are just as frustrated and want nothing more than to deliver an on-ice product you can be proud of – it’s what drives us every day. No one in the organization is happy with what has transpired – from management, to coaches, to players. Over the last few years, we’ve had some successes and moments to cherish, but ultimately it was not the end goal. We are working relentlessly every day to bring a Stanley Cup back to New York because that is what our fans deserve.
With our position in the standings and injuries to key players this season, we must be honest and realistic about our situation. We are not going to stand pat – a shift will give us the ability to be smart and opportunistic as we retool the team. This will not be a rebuild. This will be a retool built around our core players and prospects. We will target players that bring tenacity, skill, speed, and a winning pedigree with a focus on obtaining young players, draft picks, and cap space to allow us flexibility moving forward. That may mean saying goodbye to players that have brought us and our fans great moments over the years. These players represented the Rangers with pride and class and will always be a part of our family.
As we start on this new strategic plan, we will continue to play hard with pride and passion for our fans. We appreciate your unwavering support for the Rangers more than we can describe and thank you for all that you do for our organization. You will begin to see some of our plans come to light in the coming weeks and months. LGR
Quotes aren’t working but TJ as it stands they are one half of a good team. There is no offense here. It either needs to be addressed asap via some kind of roster move (trade or Perreault) to get a foothold in the standings or they should focus on getting assets and building for the future. The worst case scenario would be clawing to get a wildcard spot and falling short with Panarin walking for free and the rest of the core getting a year older
Or Miller starts scoring at his normal pace – Zib has proven to me at least that he is NOT done and could still be a point per game player. What killed us more than Drury imo was drafting two consensus busts ( (laffy and kakko)- Just bad Ranger’s luck. Even when we get lucky – its a fugazzi
The team did about as well as they could have considering everything. Pretty lame job by the refs, even putting aside team bias and just looking from an entertainment and on ice product perspective.
Knights got a gift win from the refs. Psst: to the NHL: they dont need help
Brooks took a lot of sh*t from our community, but I religiously read him. I looked forward to his insights and will miss his column dearly. RIP
Last few coaches didn’t make adjustments to pp or lines in general fast enough for most of us fans. I like that Sully is at least trying stuff. There is talent there and we will score goals at home. Let’s start Saturday vs the Isles and then keep it rolling. I don’t want to over look Detroit tonight. They seem to play us pretty good; however, bald bread is going to go off.
And once again Quinn seems lost behind the bench.FIFY
Sounds simplistic but the PP has too many passers. Mika and Panarin must be separated.
pp1: Fox, Panarin, Trocheck (Miller) Laba, Lafrenière
PP2 : Fox, Mika, Cuylle, Miller (Brodzinski), RaddyshLaba looks awesome for what it’s worth
Great along the boards – reminds me of Dom Maloney but for all the goals..but he had Espo.
Talking to myself in the old blog :/
New coach same problems
same players
why not label the 4th line what it is? The 3rd line. Rather than the Momentum line, how about the “heads-up” line? That’s what they hear from opponents. I like that Sully is playing Panarin and sometime Fox now, for the full 2 min PP. I would just as well scrap PP2 unless PP1 is “shipping” the bed. Bounce back Mika was predictable.

Power play units for opening night:
PP1 – Fox, Panarin, Trocheck, Zibanejad and Miller
PP2- Schneider, Sheary, Cuylle, Lafrenière and Rempe#NYR
PP2 looks terrible. can’t wait
Lafrenière : To be fair he certainly didnt bust down any doors.
PP2 looks like PP1 is getting 1:45 of the ice time.
