Game Analysis: #1 - 10/3/13 | New York Rangers @ Phoenix Coyotes Analysis

[Tawnos]

So I like Richards on the wing. That's been cool.

Yeah I've actually enjoyed that. He looks more focused to me. See if it lasts, but this could turn out great.

 

[Boruto]

Our players need to move their feet in the neutral zone. Passes are going on and off being they're not moving their feet. That's the entire essence of Boyle's inability to receive pucks. He doesn't move.

 

[Doctyl]

So are about 100 other NHLers. Some are averaging 2 and even 3 points per game.

Nash needs to show up.

lazy pos has an assist on our only goal 2 periods into the season...trade his ass

 

[Kakko]

Honest question, if Richards is actually good this year, is there any chance we keep?

 

[Glennsoe]

Zucc has been impressive so far.

shame the shoot heard around the world didn't go in...

 

[trilobyte]

I think MDZ has had a good game.
He's shown some good moves offensively, and I hope to see more of that, game over game.

with sather theres always a chance

 

[Tawnos]

If Richards puts up 90 points, there's a chance. Otherwise, I don't think so.

 

[Blueshirt Believer]

It's fine if he's a 4th liner and killing penalties but you don't win jack with him playing 3rd line minutes.

We say this every year!!

Trade him and be done with it. What Boyle brings to the team isn't worth the non-stop headaches...

 

[ecemleafs]

I think the staff is hesitant to put two rookies (Miller is essentially a rookie) on the same line, but I'd line to see Miller and Boyle swap places.

much rather see pyatt down to the 4th line and put miller on the wing.

That's what Im saying he doesn't even have a goal yet. He's bad




sarcasm

 

[Doctyl]

its nash's fault. his losing mentality rubbed off on everyone.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

If he keeps playing like tonight, why not? That's quality stuff, just short of a goal. It's up to him.

 

[Blueshirt Believer]

No, he is gone irregardless..

The Rangers need the money...

 

[Tawnos]

That could work too. Hell, better yet. Swap Fast and Dorsett and make Pyatt-Boyle-Dorsett the 4th line.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Richards hasn't been terrible. Our 2nd line is bringing the heat and all-in-all I'm really liking what I'm seeing from this team. Call me crazy but I think we're actually playing well.

 

[BroadwayBlues]

I like how people complained about Torts constant line juggling, yet want AV to juggle lines in a 2-1 game on opening night.

It was discussed the last two days. Boyle has no business being on the 3rd line. Pyatt sucks.

 

[Water1]

From what I can tell, no sustained pressure, too many telegraphed passes and a lack of puck awareness.

There's no primary or secondary scoring.
Hopefully this will change
One more thing, zuccerello could'nt hit the ocean from a boat

 

[OverTheCap]

I doubt those two guys have more even strength time than Brassard. Both play the PK.

At even strength: Pyatt, 8:32; Brassard, 7:09; Boyle, 7:01.

Too much 5-on-5 for Boyle and especially Pyatt, more even strength minutes than Nash.

 

[Doctyl]

It was discussed the last two days. Boyle has no business being on the 3rd line. Pyatt sucks.

and nash sucks

 

[BBKers]

We get your point
You think Nash is worthy of praise and is oblivious to criticism although he has been terrible since the playoffs. That fluke assist notwithstanding, he needs to pick up his game considerably. If you think he is bringing bang for the buck, well, whatever

 

[Maineice11]

The bottom 6 suck but Callahan and Hagelin will fix that. We just have to suck it up for now.

There was good chemistry between moore and dorsett during preseason, I think that chemistry with Miller or Fast could be a very good 3rd/4th line.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Why the hell is thatb happening though

 

[Raspewtin]

just saw Vrbata's goal, how the hell was that not goalie interference?

 

[Tawnos]

One more thing, zuccerello could'nt hit the ocean from a boat

He's missed a couple for sure. But the whole team has missed the net a lot tonight. Hopefully they continue to work on directing the puck that way and it improves.
