This is pretty dumb.
DD really isn't good enough to be playing these minutes. He'll show flashes but I think you have to kind of accept that you're a bit short a center. Move Miller to C and live with some growing pains, put Buch on his wing, stop playing career AHLers and mediocre 4th liners on the 4th line and wondering why it's struggling.
I also have some issues with playing DeAngelo with McDonagh. Great, give the kids a chance, but it's putting him in a position to fail IMO.
Sorry man but this team shouldn't be unprepared to start the season again and again and again and have to have the coaches panic and throw the lines into a blender. That's what I'm really tired of. The coaches aren't preparing this team for the season and I'm just tired of it. Gee how come all these other teams can be ready to go and players have chemistry and they play like they have a purpose, know where their teammates are, and have a gameplan, while the Rangers look like they have no clue what they're doing out there? THis shouldn't be some magical voodoo bull**** about finding the perfect line combinations that magically fix everything, it's about the coaches preparing the team for the season and they fail at it again and again and again.
