Is Glass playing still even after losing to the Islanders? Seriously? I have a hard time rooting for this team sometimes. Our coach is inexplicably putting a vastly inferior team on the ice compared to what he could be.
It's unreal. Simply unreal. I feel like AV is looking for a scapegoat everywhere but with the worst player in the NHL.
This season, I honestly not enjoying as much as I could because I go into a depression every time Glass dresses and now instead of Miller. Why?

It's all so tiresome
It really is so annoying because everyone can see how bad Glass is except Vigneault.

This is a bad hockey team.
Sadly I think Miller isn't long for this team. And we will really regret it down the line if he is dealt.
What is he doing that's so terrible that Glass plays over him? It's mind boggling.
Only explanation could be is that Marty is still bitter over his alleged pre-season comments and he makes sure to whisper into AV's ears. Or maybe Miller could be full of himself and that angers the vets on the team.
Wouldn't doubt if the latter was true. Miller has been known to have some attitude issues.
Still, Glass shouldn't even be in the ECHL, much less in the lineup over Miller or someone else.

I'd find it very hard to believe that MSL is holding a grudge against a 21 year old kid.

Hmm that's interesting. I remember that tweet and thinking it was good Miller was probably playing with a chip on his shoulder. I assume he was probably going hard and caught someone with a borderline hit or got a stick up or something.
Marty is a pro, I couldn't see him getting AV to ice an inferior lineup simply because he doesn't like JT.
Either way it's utterly ridiculous that Glass is an everyday player in AV's eyes. Even worse is he's saying Glass has EARNED a longer leash and apparently thinks Glass has been effective.
I pray Sather can trade for another grinder who plays physical but is an effective player, that way there's no reason at all to justify Glass in the lineup (even though in today's NHL I don't think he's needed. Fast, Kreider, Miller, Girardi, Klein, Staal are all rough as it is, we don't need an ineffective player just because he sometimes lays big hits).
If JT had a chip on his shoulder, now it's probably justified. He's being sat when he's playing well, at times he's the only one in the bottom six getting any offensive chances. AV is willing to deal with Hayes and Fast and their mistakes and learning but not JT's. I'd be pissed off too if I was JT, he's played well enough to earn the right to stay in the lineup.

So essentially it's entirely fabricated. Players get heated in practice all the time...it's remarkable how twitter blows things out of proportion these days.

We're CLEAN, we PROMISE!
Best thing about Piles loss, is that they have a chance to redeem themselves tonight, to almost an equally hated team. Tough game, but hand them a loss, and all is almost forgotten. 16-4 in last 20 should be talked about, not the latest loss.
I knew that game was a crapshoot. After ASG, it's anyone's game, they simply were better and quite honestly 4-1 looked closer than it was.

From snyrangers:
"In talking about Tanner Glass and being physical, Alain Vigneault said on Wednesday that all of the Rangers need to finish their checks when they have a chance to do so. He added, “taking someone out of the equation is something that you have to do and its’ not just Tanner but all of our players.”
He said that this is something that the coaching staff needs to keep emphasizing to the players.
As an example of how the team can play physical, Vigneault pointed to the Rangers recent west coast trip where they out hit the Sharks, Kings and Ducks. (The Rangers outhit the Sharks (27-19) and Kings (33-24), the Ducks outhit the Rangers 26-20)"
Maybe an explanation, but who knows at this point
