Post-Game Talk: Wild at Rangers - December 23

[trilobyte]

Pleasant dreams Rangers. Dream of being good again.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Score 4 goals against the Wild. Still lose.

I guess that's what we get for having ECHL-caliber goaltending tonight.

 

[Boruto]

Well, take the 5 day break and come back better. Something something hope.

 

[Anthony5967]

He is. The king cannot wear the crown anymore, he's slow and sloppy and gradually becoming a liability.

Shestyorkin is nuts signing that three year deal with SKA. Looking like he would have a role here next year.

 

[TheTakedown]

Jesus that was bad.

Blow this team's core up. Hank needs to get his act together. 3 good games doesn't erase games like this.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Defense needs to be fixed or start tanking... seasons wasted if we're 1 round and out

 

[Machinehead]

Can't wait for Valiquette to spin this one

 

[NCRanger]

When does this become a full-blown goaltending problem?

Lundqvist has gone past being mediocre down to sucks. Bad doesn't describe his play this evening. Worse than bad.

 

[Anthony5967]

Drinking buddies Miller and Hayes -7 tonight. Go grade slices with that clown from Barstool.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Or he's a genius because he sees the **** storm we have on defense

 

[GOAT AINEC]

Worst goaltending performance you will ever see. Some random guy in the crowd wouldn't have done any worse.

 

[Anthony5967]

Can't wait for Valiquette to spin this one

I've grown tired of him.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

So what does the buyout on hank look like?

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Score 4 goals against the Wild. Still lose.

Were the cookies good, at least?

AV is Horrible and Hank Sucks again.. we aren't going anywhere

 

[TheTakedown]

Won't even need to -- with how good the metro is we'll miss the playoffs at this rate.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

On quite the 2004 country club coast right now. Awful effort.

Vesey belongs in the AHL right now.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

I've grown tired of him.

His analysis is consistently awful when it comes to discussing skater play. He constantly blames the wrong player, doesn't understand defensive positioning, and really doesn't understand forward positioning in the defensive zone.

They came out perfect other than the size so decorating them might be complicated.

I like him quite a lot but it would be interesting if they also added a defenseman to the crew lol.

 

[NCRanger]

I don't know how anyone can talk about "blowing up the core" and saying the defense is so bad when the goaltending is pee-wee quality.

Seems like this defense is more than capable of limiting shots and holding teams to a goal or two as long as the goaltending is adequate. (Pittsburgh notwithstanding).

 

[Trxjw]

Well, that was fun. Hopefully this doesn't put Hank into another tailspin.

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Lack of effort by Hayes on Dumba's goal was so bad

 

[TheTakedown]

This is the direction the league is going. You can't outscore your mistakes anymore. Between how average our goaltending has been and how God awful our defense is, the only solution is to take a loss on Girardi and Staal and move them away

 

[GOAT AINEC]

Was the corsi good at least?

Totally agree. They got lazy and did not throw a body and let MINNY walk them all night. The d is not as bad as some believe, the goalie tonight was a joke.
