Post-Game Talk: devils @ Rangers -- 4/15/21

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Shut out 1.5 periods against the Debs? Fire Quinn.


But in case they do decide to hang onto him for Saturday, Kravy better be on that top line and Kreider better be on the 4th.

 

[duhmetreE]

This is actually pretty crazy. And yea, with stuff like this, it’s save to say Quinn will be behind the bench on opening night next year.

I've come to expect it already but I'm hoping for new assistants

Panarin hides a lot of issues

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Kravtsov looks a million times better then Lafreniere and Kakko. I wonder if he will be the best of the 3.

he's also a million times older and more experienced. I think Laf will be a monster at 21. Think they'll all be great though.

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

The kid line and Kakko specifically has had a few bad games in a row I think.

Outside of like two periods, the kid line has been garbage. It’s astonishing that they have stayed together.

The KZB line is crap and you could play anyone with Strome and Panarin.

The kid line is always bad and always has been lol

I don't know why Quinn thinks they work together

KZB has also been low-key garage all year. Mixing them together to create two new lines seems to be the obvious solution.

What juicy stuff did Valley say after the game?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Trouba is good

Trouba is good. Tuba is bad. But he's been mostly Trouba lately.

 

[bl02]

The shots by Valiquette at tony D in the post game was pretty great

The funny part is he was a reason why the team played so well down the stretch last year on what many may considered a less talented team so lets see if this is just not a byproduct of playing the worse team in hockey. Let's see them sustain this rest of year and to start next season.

 

[mas0764]

We won. Why do you have to start in?

All the chart says is that, based on shot locations, the Rangers had a better scoring chance differential with Howden on the ice than with Panarin on the ice, again, probably because the game was over for about 50 minutes of play. Despite that, Panarin basically made three goals by himself and nobody is suggesting you ignore that.

Game score, which is compiled by the same people, says Panarin had one of his best games of the season:

The guy isn’t happy unless he’s pissing in someone’s Cheerios.

What he say?

stop copying me.

quite a few times tonight, they were on the ice while Smith and Hajek took turns flubbing passes and giving the puck away behind our net.

They haven't been great, but thats hardly their fault

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

Trouba was excellent tonight. He was last game too.

Can’t stand him but I’ll gladly admit when he plays well.

 

[mas0764]

literally half of that is from the 2 philly games

I wonder where they are if those two Philly blowouts are 3-0 wins instead.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

The Rangers are out here flaunting their goal differential that would be significantly different if you removed the three 8+ goal games lol

 

[duhmetreE]

What juicy stuff did Valley say after the game?

"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...."

Whoever said Vally was coked up before the game.. The image of him and Johnny G. railing lines the whole night is one of the funniest things I could ever think of.

You're welcome

 

[mandiblesofdoom]

Kid line gets stuck with Hajek/Smith and gets punished for their inability to get out of the zone.

 

[17futurecap]

Great win, shame they have gone 6-2-2 in their last ten and only made up 1 point on Boston in those ten games, guess they just have to keep winning.

On the next episode of Rangers of our Lives...

 

[Backstreets Back]

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.

 

[jay from jersey]

Valiquette who? 2 now, 1 to go.
He ain't got nothing in me! Lol.
Woohoo. Shame Boston is trying to hang on. Give it up already.

Hall looking right at home in that bruins line up. Smart trade by them

Yeah but take out the two Flyers games and it would be -100.

I still don't know how he went from a PPG player to a 110+ point (pace) player.
