It’s Aho destruction time.

 

[ohbaby]

Alone on Top in the League!

Happy New Year Everybody!

Let's Go Rangers!

In Vancouver now - Canucks v Sens tomorrow

It’s Aho destruction time.

I keep seeing this sentiment. Is there a bit I'm missing?

 

[Clark Kellogg]

I keep seeing this sentiment. Is there a bit I'm missing?

Yes, a bit of Adam Fox’s game since Aho “Swept the Leg”.

 

[RangersFan1994]

I would love to see Aho drop the gloves and man up. Sadly he don't have respect and needs to get laid out.

 

[AlaBlueShirt]

I want Edstrom in the lineup. Go bully those little chickens.

He got sent down to Hartford so if he isn't called up, they rather have AHL depth like Brodzinski and no more prospects on the team

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Big game, they seem to have gotten Kotcheckov(spelling) going.

It’s Aho destruction time.

It should be, but this team is always playing the short game, trying to pick up points instead of sending a message against future greasery

Rangers' Vincent Trocheck expecting tough game against Hurricanes on Tuesday

"You know what you are getting out of that team pretty much every year, no matter who is turning in and out. They have that same core so they play a tough game."

[Rongomania]

This team knows we've had their number since that series. Honestly, since that Georgy shutout.

Get ummmmm

 

[McRanger92]

I predict Aho will chicken out if/when hes challenged and Rod the Bod will complain about every call.

The Rangers always operate as if getting the win is more important than payback, which is probably the right call. Id like to see them be the bully against a team of fake tough guys though. Should be a good game either way.

One a sidenote, the Canes lost a lot of their moxie when they let Trocheck walk over here. He was their best player in a lot of games we played against them over the years. They are the test case for the Ranger fans who wanted to give Stastny a contract instead. Theyve only gotten worse.

 

[Machinehead]

Expecting this to be bowling shoe ugly. This Hurricanes squad are the all-time leaders in "analytics say they should be the GOAT" and then, just, blehh.

Also, I doubt anything happens with Aho because Aho didn't do anything. He wasn't even looking at Fox and they just ran into each other. Sorry, but somebody had to say it.

At the time, I wanted Stastny but when we signed Trocheck I was like "this is good too."

My whole thing was, I wasn't actually convinced they were walking away from Strome until they did.

 

[tomobson]

Must win.

It's ancient history now but Stastny was clearly cooked even before that summer. And management had the foresight to know that as talented as Chytil is, he can't be fully relied upon until he's past these head injuries. And even the biggest Trocheck fans have to be thrilled with what theyve gotten out of him so far. Need 2022 Trocheck in these playoffs

Yeah, from what I remember it was a "non thing", it's just that it was our "Foxy" that got injured. Many thought we were so screwed and our season was over. We got better! If Fox thought/thinks for one minute it was intentional, then I want HIM to go after Aho. It's not like one is a heavyweight, a so called mismatch and Troubs wouldn't even lower himself into taking care of business with him. I want Troubs to go after Svechnikov, that dirty S.O.B.
I think Tro is just giving professional "hockey speak", no need to light a fire. Looking up at the plus/minus with Tro a plus 6, that is NO accident. He has deserved every plus there and it probably should be better.
As great a season Breadman is having, Tro is a very close 2nd. and yeah like @McRanger92 stated the Canes lost a great deal of their toughness, losing Tro. IMO

Aho knew what he was doing. All these players do. The king is our pal Tom Wilson and his "What? Me?" face

I miss that place.

Bold. Bold I say. Aho is a rat. You might be right but that doesn’t change the fact that that guy is a dirtbag.

I do prefer they just win the game though.

Oh come now -- whenever a Ranger player is injured, someone on the other team has always done something -- even if they were on another continent.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

The Aho hit was the most accidentally on purpose thing I've ever seen.

Hes a coward but build up a big enough lead where you no longer care about penalties and then don't give him the option.

I mean, if you wanna beat him up just because he's ugly and plays for the Hurricanes, I'm very here for that.
