We don't need one. This is 2015.
Who is this teams Messier?
Derek Stepan... Dude always steps up
The only team we faced in 94 as good as the 2015 Caps, 2015 Lightning, or either of the West teams is the Devils. This is an objective reality.
You already have Stralman and B Boyle. That's enough Rangers. No more poaching of our players, please. Edit..not YOU poaching....Callahan did it.TBL fan with peace here
Kreider maybe or Brassard
amazing players, will like to see them in my team
He has to win game 6 first and I highly doubt he'll get a chance to do that.. If our defense continues to leave him out to dry he won't have a choice but to go home.
Marc Staal has been awful against stamkos line and if u put anyone but Stepan and mcd-girardi out against johnson they dominate...
Tomorrow AV has to out coach his opponent and I honestly don't think he's done that once this post season
Then he'll be Derek Stepan, not Mark Messier.
No I mean not this again with all the people trying to keep comparing. This is 2015 and this is its own team they don't need 1994's help
I'm still getting behind the team regardless. They've given us an excellent season, some amazingly entertaining hockey to watch, shown some unreal will to come back from down 3-to-1 in two straight playoffs, and there is no shame in any of that.
You think our coaches and players aren't trying and don't want to win or something? It's insanely difficult to even make it this far back to back seasons, let alone reach the finals two years in a row. No matter the outcome, I'm pretty proud of the team and what they've done. I'm gonna feel that way no matter how the playoffs play out. Cheers
I agree, but that doesn't mean I/we don't want to see the Rangers fighting best effort always.
You'll see that tomorrow, I guaran....I promise you that.
You guys will be my favorite posters if you're right.I think zucc plays tomorrow.
I think zucc plays tomorrow.
This "AV needs to outcoach Cooper" stuff is misplaced, imo. The Rangers need to outplay the Bolts. It's that simple now. They know what to do, they just have to do it.
Ya but if AV puts out Yandle-boyle no matter how well they play the Johnson or stamkos line will dominate them... He needs to fully understand everyone's weaknesses and strengths now(not how good they used to be, looking at u msl). AV needs to constantly put ppl in a position to succeed
Less and less time to NOT run into one of those pesky ol' "bad matchups" or "has our number" type of things.
Definition of a window closing. Lundqvist will be 34 years old for the next playoff run. Tick Tock.
But that is not the team's problem. Our problem is that we aren't moving the puck/shooting quickly. Our problem is offense, not defense, not goal. Our guys are taking that 1/2-second too long, being tenative with the puck. The Yandle-Boyle pairing isn't killing us. Our lack of finish is.
Totally agree with you.
It's good that we still appreciate 1994. If you're gonna win the Cup and just forget about it, it's not worth it. It's bad that we compare every team to that one. The 2015 Rangers have EARNED the right to just be the 2015 Rangers and have that be good enough.
Mark Messier is 54 years old. He's the last guy we need tomorrow.
I think zucc plays tomorrow.
....video games on his living room couch?
Yes, with that I would agree. But he's not getting into a game without practice with contact first.
