GDT: #14 - 02/16/21 | devils @ RANGERS | 7:00 - MSG

[duhmetreE]

If this doesn't get a coach fired, I do not know what it will take.

 

[bl02]

We couldn't score on a Lindy Ruff defense....

ALL of our metrics mean jack shit. We have to lead the league in low% shots. Our possession numbers mean shit.

no please I wanna hear more about takeaways please.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Gorton needs to get his f***ing walking papers if Quinn is still the coach on Thursday.

 

[Disgraced Cosmonaut]

At least Vally ripped them.

Finally.

 

[Tob]

Vally out to lunch. You can't expect a bunch of kids to compete and work hard every night when they're learning and soul searching. Blackwell and PDG are literally vets that are playing each game fighting for their career. What the f*** is Quinn about if it's not to communicate and work well with kids and now you're saying he can't get even effort out of the kids?

 

[bl02]

I don’t think we had the effort or the talent in the lineup tonight.

Sorry you can’t use the latter argument tonight especially against this team

 

[BroadwayStorm]

Going into the bubble there was so much promise. This is a disgrace. And the cherry on top was cutting your best offensive d man from a year ago because he and the backup goalie that hasn’t put out either got into a scrap. Guys fight in practice and everybody laughs and calls it heat of the moment bs. The front office is seriously worrying me.

Yes because that is the ONLY reason he was banished to the shadow realm.

 

[Black Aces]

Depends on how one views crap results.

Frankly, this team looks more like it has a hex on it than anything else.

But I also think this team has a black hole down the middle with Chytil out and Zibanejad looking like a husk of a player.

I respect you more than anyone on here but I have to disagree. I see things like bad luck used as an excuse all the time.

There is a lack of effort from the top guys. Uninspired. Not ready to play especially after long layoffs. We dont go to scoring areas and are unwilling to pay the price. We give up so much space in the neutral zone. We over pass. We pass up shots. We dump the puck in and rarely recover it or forecheck. Our PP is one of the worst on the planet.

 

[ElLeetch]

how do you get our worked by a team that hasn't played in four and a half years?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I hate to say it but I think I agree with PB. Gorton is arrogant piece of shit and won't admit his mistake and fire Quinn.

 

[Machinehead]

I don’t think we had the effort or the talent in the lineup tonight.

Sure but the first one is on the coach.

And other than Hughes and Subban, I couldn't pick a single Devil out of a photo lineup so we can't exactly hang our hats on lack of talent with this one.

Edge can use whatever argument he wants.

 

[YoSoyLalo]

never

 

[bl02]

And sorry even if he is playing with Strome it’s hard to defend Laf anymore

 

[SRHRangers]

I mean, this isn't an Adam Gase situation, where Jets fans knew from jumpstreet we were f*cked.

But, the conversation needs to be had now about Quinn.

 

[Fataldogg]

Glad to see Vally critical of them again. Looks like he gets more frustrated than Quinn and the players do.

 

[ElLeetch]

I hate to say it but I think I agree with PB. Gorton is arrogant piece of shit and won't admit his mistake and fire Quinn.

Another example of trying to be the smartest guy in the room.

 

[Machinehead]

Let's not get crazy.

I'm tired of Quinn because he's just American AV.

 

[TheBloodyNine]

Bad coaching

 

[Anthony5967]

Yes because that is the ONLY reason he was banished to the shadow realm.

You know what, give me a break, okay? The backend has done nothing and they cut a guy that provided a ton of it after signing him to a deal that will get bought out again. Terrible asset management.

 

[Black Aces]

I don’t think we had the effort or the talent in the lineup tonight.

Man for man the devils are that much better?

They were prepared to play and we weren't. Yet again.

Bad luck only covers so much fault.

If it keeps up, it’s cause you are doing something wrong. Do something different.

Varlamov, Halak, and Blackwood are not Hasek, Brodeur and Roy.

 

[mike14]

Pretty much missed the last 10 mins but what a brutal finish...
Just not good enough across the board, and I'm not sure the team as constructed has the ability to turn things around. I do wonder what the Rangers internal expectations are and how often they are being reevaluated.
Kakko is just flat out getting robbed at this point. Glad Buch scored. I still like our bottom 6. Lindgren, Hajek and Trouba all had solid games from what I saw.

I don't how they do it, but both Kreider and Zib need to get their shit sorted

 

[Daves a mess]

Steve V questioning the top skill players will now. Says not ready to play. Beaten by a team who didn't practice in 2 weeks.

Everybody seeing the Rangers were outworked. Thats a tough pill for management to see and swallow. I know JD is probably walking around his office with his underwear on his head.

Nice.
