It’s coming boys. Just be patient. They rangers will be a force. Just let it happen. They were bunch of dogs tonight. Nice win. They might score 5-6 Monday
I would try like hell to get Necas or Robertson(s)
Nick Robertson for Othmann
We need to have 3 Robertson’s. I love Matt Robertson, as a player. He’s ain’t bad to look at either. Hes gets my wife all hot and bothered 😂
I would like to see them trade for either Rust or Rakell… Sully ties like Sheary but one who can actually score goals lol get fully healthy, call up Perrault, then they’d be cooking with gas
Rakell/Laf Miller Mika
Panarin Trocheck Laf/Rust
Cuylle Laba Perrault
Edstrom Carrick Rempe
Shesty/Raddysh/Parsinen/JbrodThey’re aren’t a whole team offensively by any means, therefore scoring goals is like pulling teeth. But this isn’t alot to ask for to make them much more dangerous offensively
Rangers get 17 goals tonight
In all seriousness, they’ve played good enough to win these games so the tide should turn in their favor at some point.
Perrault needs to play in the NHL tho. This was dumb to not have at least start here since Hartford has barely even played. They’ve played 2 freakin games. He scored last night and has a point in each game. And god bless Connor Sheary, but he needs to be a role player and not someone counted on for offense
I’m not sure they looked this good at any point all last season. Attention to detail is remarkably improved, especially in the dzone.
Laba looks like he’s played for years and he already has Sullys trust in all situations. Crazy since he probably came out of nowhere if you think about it. I doubt before camp started they even considered him as a regular, and at this point how could they ever send him down? He might here to stay especially with Trocheck out. He actually reminds me of Brandon Dubinsky
The stars are still fighting it (Panarin especially)a bit but the lower guys really stepped up this road trip. Trying not to get too excited yet realizing they haven’t played a powerhouse yet, but got good vibes so far
He obv didn’t score but I thought Mika had more energy and played pretty well. He had 7 SOG
Gavrikov was pretty bad. He needs to be heavily relied upon if they have any hopes of anything
We all knew Goodrow was over paid, Drury was the one that over paid him. Drury went about changing the team overall with what he did with Goodrow and then CK20 and Trouba. Yes the team needed a change but Drury went about it all wrong. The way this team played the other night reminded me how they ended the year. If the uninspired play continues, Drury is gone by Christmas.
idk what else he was supposed to do. You don’t buy it, but I think they sacrificed last season and just horrid for the best knowing that the leadership wasn’t going to be helpful in anyway. They were rudderless last year
He isn’t gone by Xmas lol they could be 0-50 something and he isn’t. End of the season maybe, but no way in hell does he get fired before that. GMs rarely get fired in season anyway
He gave those guys 3-4 years to get it done (goodrow, Trouba, etc) and they didnt get it done. So you move on. You act like Drury is the only GM who moves on from players.
And it’s one game. The two best players barely played in preseason, basically the engine (Miller and Panarin) of the team
There are two moments that snowballed into this massive changeover (in leadership)
Losing to NJ up 2-0 in 22-23
Florida manhandling them in 23-34It said a lot about the leadership those two series. Trouba, Goodrow and Kreider were the fall guys. The coaches too obviously.
Listen, Drury is finally on my hot seat if it makes you feel any better Brukie lol he has no more excuses/rope with me. The whole reason I defend him is I see what he’s trying to do. At some point it’s on the damn players tho, which is a big reason he went and got Miller. They needed his kind of attitude. This year we’ll see what happens, if they miss playoffs Drury could be gone but it’s still possible it won’t happen since Sullivan just got here. They’ll probably give them both a clean slate in a sense
You know I love you Tj!!! You are off the wall but have good intentions. You say some crazy things
But I will never forget the Drury is a genius remark!!! LOL
!!!!! Just for you.
I fully admit I’m crazy
The no tax state has be proven to be much less than what people think. Its winning that draws players to teams. Remember, Fla was terrible for 20 years before this resurgence. The no tax is only for half the games. The players must pay tax in every state they play in so realistically its just half the games they play. Zito built a culture in Fla. Chemistry, Comradery, Support. The Rangers had that but Drury destroyed it.
It’s ironic you say that because the reason he’s “destroyed” it is because they couldn’t beat Florida. They were dominated that series. Since then, for better or worse, he’s trying to get to that level. Ie-Miller in, Trouba out as an example. You guys just refuse to see this. They weren’t good enough then, and they still aren’t. But what can ya do except try. By your theory if he leaves the team status quo, last year and now, they beat Florida? How exactly? They weren’t good enough then and now they’re older.
And yes the no tax is a huge advantage, because if we sign Bennett, as an example, they have to give him 2 mill more a year then Ziti did. To make up for NO TAXES down there. It’s blatantly obvious I don’t what to tell you lol
Its all good, remember, Drurys a genius!!
I’m forever in your head🤣 it’s truly flattering 😊give it time. They’ve had a major facelift
Yeah that wasnt great…team had zero emotion, the entire team looked like they were going through the motions. We should be able to get a 1st pick+ for Panarin at the deadline, so I guess there is that at least.
It’s like last year all over again. I have a feeling Drury will be gone if they look like this all season. Everyone talks about how Bill Zito created the whole Panther’s culture… Drury has killed NYR’s for the second damn time
Bill Zito is also working in a no tax state, it’s a tremendous advantage he has
The correct response to this game is to admit having 2 lines and 1 defenseman who can generate offense was dumb and to call up Perreault and morrow but that’s not going to happen
It’s only a matter of time til they call up Berard and Perrault because they clearly won’t have enough scoring with this bottom 6. They have two 4th lines essentially
Berard-Laba-Perrault would give us a collective woody i think
The 4th line should have Edstrom as a regular staple, and then pick two from game to game among: Carrick, Rempe, Raddysh, Parsinen and Sheary, JBrod.
Larry Brooks said it best on a podcast I saw, this roster is like an opening draft…it won’t last all season like this.
Let’s just be patient. It’s a new coach, system, new roles, etc
