Avs fan coming in peace.

The Rangers have always been one of my favourite Eastern Conference teams. Their uniforms are great (not the ones they wore tonight, the normal ones) and the goal horn is pretty sweet.

Boy, what a young talented team you guys have. I think the Rangers are going to be an elite team for a long time with the talent on the roster and in the system.

I’ve been watching some of the games recently and man, when this team is on they’re pretty damn good.

Hope to see you guys push into the playoffs and make some noise.

They remind me a lot of the Avs from a few years back, say 2018 or so.

Young team with tons of talent, they just need to mature and get that consistency. They're getting there, just takes time. Thanks for the kind words. Hoping Grubauer comes back from COVID healthy and you guys crush this year.

I don't think this fanbase realizes how good Panarin really is. There are very few players in the history of this franchise with a two year stretch as good as he's had. Guy is literally a top 5 player in the league and easily the best winger. Yes that includes Kane and Kucherov.

We literally just got beaten over our heads for the last two weeks that the only two comparable players in their first hundred games were Messier and Jagr. The fan base completely understands how good Panarin really is.

Sometimes I wonder if Rangers fans are actually Rangers fans. It's like they're looking for an excuse to shit on the team.

a) We only had one game with comical goal differential. The other two games we won by 5 and 4 goals. Not something out of the ordinary.

b) Believe it or not it takes talent to beat an NHL team 9-0, much less one that has a winning record.

c) I don't see anyone taking out the three games we lost by 4 goals.

d) No we don't have games where we lost by more than 4 goals that comically skews our goal differential. Some would view that as a positive that we can blow teams out but we rarely ever get blown out and never comically. Maybe that's a credit to the team?

e) Will we take out Washington's 6-0 win against Buffalo? Or the Islanders 7-2 win against the Bruins?

Exactly. It's so annoying.

Kudos to Lindgren getting his first of the season. He doesn't get the accolades his teammates do, but he is as solid as they come, night in and night out. He did everything tonight but bleed. Blocked shots, threw hits, defended well, and finally put one behind the goalie.

Kravtzov continues to impress. He saved Shesty's shutout bid with a great backcheck, taking the stick of a Debbie who had an open net to shoot at. And of his offensive skills,... well we all knew he was talented.

I never get tired of crushing the Debs. It has a special place in my heart. LOL

And we get to do it two more times this week! LOL

I do think this team is better than their record indicates. I just don't them to think, from a team building standpoint, that they're closer than they are and go and do something stupid.

I still think 22-23 is the year to make a move.

Right back at ya, wouldn’t be surprised if we meet in the finals one or two times.

Yeah, I could see that. I think you guys are deeper than that team was though.

Pretty fun team to watch. I like teams that win with skill and high-end puck movement.

"High performers don't like mediocre people, and mediocre people don't like high performers.

What happens is, some of the people that aren't here anymore, not naming any names, are not here because they didn't fit in with what the Rangers were building, culture wise... and now with the few people not here and the locker room sorting itself out, the leaders emerge.

They get to get up and have a bigger voice, they're more comfortable speaking because no one is going to undermine their message...."

They are incredibly inconsistent qnd have been the entire season. Laying a smackdown on one of the worst, if not the worst team in the league isn’t proof of anything. The Devils were already mediocreand they just sold two of their best players for the future. The Devils just aren’t any good right now and we’re taking advantage of it. Vally’s just on a high right now like thise people were on a high over Kreider’s crazy little stretch and calling for him to become a captain et al. and I was saying to see how he’d do when he started to cool off and he’s been arguably our worst player for weeks now.

This team is young and flawed but they have incredible potential. But beating down on an objectively bad team twice in a riw doesn’t prove much if anything.

Thanks for the kind words, if you guys meet the Bolts in the playoffs it'll be better than watching porn. I was so disappointed that it didn't happen last year.

Wherever I'm standing atm
Why's that? They make the POs and go on a deep run yet? Bc the fear most people had was his game might fall off when we really need him for that. I don't think anyone was saying he'd be a bad player for the first two or three seasons.

Hes so extraordinarily elite though that I don't blame anyone for feeling confident
Serving another dish to everyone who said the rangers shouldn't sign Panarin

It's not meant to prove anything. Didn't we lose to them earlier this season?
