The shot block for anyone that missed it.

The calmness at which is executes this is what gets me.

 

[rangersfansince08]

He's 3rd in blocked shots.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

He’ll never be on Makar’s level.

Sure, and Makar will never be on his. Different type of players

oh my god that's incredible. it's even better when you realize it's slow-mo.

Not sure if anyone caught it, but there was a point last night where the puck was in mid air behind our net in the third period. Fox batted it out of mid air directly to the right winger to break the puck out. The winger failed to get it out of the zone, but it was just outstanding.

I remember that. It happened so quick most people didn't notice it.

I think it was to Mika, yeah. Next level shit.

This is probably true. I doubt he will become more injury prone, decline defensively or that his hockey IQ will drop.
So far this year in the category of points per game though they seem on the same level... 1.1-1.2 points per game.

Yup, saw that

Double whoosh!

Double whoosh!

Use the sarcasm font, goddamnit! Hahaha.

 

[TJHKY]

 

[Miamipuck]

Whoosh!

You have to remember a lot of sarcasm is missed here on all levels. I made a comment that Fox will never win another Norris because Makar has it locked down for the next 10 years.

How that is a serious post made by any Ranger fan, ever other than in jest, I have no idea. I was making fun of the blind homers in the main forum.

Last year Fox had 4 games with 3 points or more.

This season he's only had 1, despite leading the league in points for a defenseman.

He will have several more (over 82 that averages out to 6) and make another strong case for the Jack.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Still love the reply guys being like "If only the Norris actually went to someone good at DEFENSE!" when Fox is arguably better defensively than he is offensively.

They see a small player who excels on offense and assume he's bad defensively but Fox is amazing defensively.

This. He'll have a 4 or 5 pt game somwhere and separate himself from the pack imo.

Do you have his advanced stats?

 

[will1066]

Have a listen

 

[Governor]

Who leads NYR dmen in Norris wins? Leetch with 2? Crazy to think Fox could win again this year.

Someone posted yesterday a comparison of Quinn vs Gallant offensive/defensive output.

I dont think the Rangers will score as many goals as they averaged last year (they still might) because of a more defensive structure but im sure hell get a few big games.

 

[ThirdEye]

Fox is putting up the same or better points per game as Makar despite the Rangers having scored 18 less goals in 2 more games played. Until the Rangers youngins actually start producing Makar will always have the advantage of having inflated stats due to playing for an offensive juggernaut. And despite that he has yet to run away production wise

At the end of the day we should be absolutely stoked that this guy chose to play for us. Can't imagine where we would be without him

I think they will if the youngsters break out.
