GDT: ECSF: Game 6 - New York Rangers @ Carolina Hurricanes, 7pm ET, TNT

I don’t agree. they have the talent I’m general, but they don’t have the culture. it isn’t just trouba, lindgren, and gus. the entire top 6 has no showed and that’s seaped into the entire 12 man forward group.

I think the culture changes if you replace Mika and Trouba with legitimate replacements.

Problem is, that’s not gonna happen.

 

[CasusBelli]

I was being sarcastic haha

Same. ;-)

 

[Megustaelhockey]

I get beaten up every time I say this, but nothing matters but cups. It's an extremely difficult trophy to win, but success in the regular season is not a predictor. These players just don't seem to be talking about winning it or thinking they're even good enough to be able to.

Zibanejad for Shane Wright+. Who says no?

 

[Whoot Whoot]

does anyone have the strength to watch game 7? its like pickett's charge

 

[savebyrichter94]

Jekyll and Hyde team showing it’s true colors again

Couldn’t lose a game now can’t win a game , team always gets too high on their own supply and then crashes

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Dallas has 3 legit scoring lines that can be considered first lines. Rangers have Panarin’s line, Casper Kreider, Vegan Mika, Rosloshit, Cocko, Whenturd, and Cuylle who hustles and hits but should never be counted on to be a main contributor.

"If you told me in September we'd be forcing a game 7 against the second best team in the league, I'd be pretty happy!" - Chris Kreider in an hour

Kreider is a loser. It's no surprise this franchise hasn't won jack squat with him leading the way

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

These last couple games remind me of the LAK series for some reason. No clue why.

Nothing really in common. We played well against LA in every game but game 3. These last few games have been absolute dogshit.

 

[Atax]

I would take a hobbled 1 legged Wheeler in the line up over so many players right now.

 

[Kaapo Cabana]

No quit in NY

*unless we face any sort of adversity whatsoever

Trouba gave them life with his turnovers, he better have 5 helmets in hand coming out of the tunnel to toss

He has Been so bad, the entire defense has been bad. Shesty can't be saving us every game like he has. He was bound to play sub par eventually. This team let us down

It was right after the Trocheck goal he makes another egregious turnover. Canes build up a ton of momentum its like the Trocheck goal never happened.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

A bit of both, I would think. You need to get the guys who go in with the right attitude. Then you need the guy to bring out that attitude and make them into the best version of themselves.

I don't think its an attitude thing.

The problem is the D.

They may not have an Adam Fox level player on that D but they don't have a Trouba or a Lindgren either. We have both.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

These last couple games remind me of the LAK series for some reason. No clue why.

Reminds me of the Devils series last year.

It’s the same bullshit.

This team is in their own heads.

Let’s see if the coach makes any difference.

 

[duhmetreE]

For some weird reason I feel like we still win…. It might be the pound of boneless spare ribs I ate

Yeah, they're going to need to change their marketing now. Anyone who gets an email survey from the Rangers asking what they think of that slogan should tell them it sucks.

 

[LottieDottie]

rangers will come out in the third with exuberant desperation, fumbling and stumbling about, failing to gain any composure and allow a goal right quick. nail>coffin. f*** 7. 4 was must win

 

[savebyrichter94]

Get ready for the wheelchair retirement game cause it’s coming

 

[Filip Chytil]

If I ever see Biz in person, he's getting a nice left hook to the mouth

 

[Killem Dafoe]

When was the last time we lost 3 in a row?

 

[will1066]

I don't think they're too old or not sufficiently conditioned.

They are too slow. But the real issue is they are not that good. Lindgren shouldn't be sniffing the first pair. Trouba possibly should not be sniffing the NHL anymore and certainly not top minutes and Gus was good for about 2 months to start the season.

You need a really solid 6 D to compete for championships. The move the Rangers needed to make at the deadline was Chychrun, but there was ZERO discussion about that even being a remote possibiliyt.

The offense is there. The defense is not. And the saddest thing to me is they don't seem to realize it.

They designed their breakouts to compensate for the D's weaknesses but yes they are slow, but they're collectively slow.

 

[Bob Richards]

This eras Rangers are a bad 5on5 team that win games on the two most famously reliable factors which are the goalie and the power play lmfao.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

For some weird reason I feel like we still win…. It might be the pound of boneless spare ribs I ate

Bc Andersen and less Lindgren.

It's possible.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

everyone with a brain knew losing game 4 was the beginning of the end, and we were called trolls and haters and contrarians or whateverthef***. each game we look progressively worse. game 7 is gonna be last year’s game 7. I cannot get over how bad our culture is.
