he's a poor man's Chris Thorburn (with Thor himself being a destitute version of some slightly above average 4th liner)
pretty sad

Has Glass thrown a noteworthy hit this season? I'm asking because Glass was the master of getting credited for a hit without actually doing anything.
If anyone has the answer I desperately want to hear it.
****ing piece of trash hockey player.
The casual fans ALL hate him here. Not one fan I follow on twitter, any of the Rangers facebook groups, or on HF like him at all. Literally nobody likes him here except a few snarky media members, who think how hated he is is hilarious.
There's a line of thinking in hockey that someone deserves a roster spot if if they're a "character guy" and check players three seconds after they've released the puck. They don't have to do anything else. Ever. These players blatantly and obviously drag their teams down, but not only are free from criticism outside of internet message boards, they often get credit for team success by incompetent media personalities who wildly overrate the role of "grit" in hockey to the point that someone can be a complete liability on the ice and still receive praise.
Teams do themselves a disservice by icing 4th lines featuring clowns like Tanner Glass. They are just throwing games. Glass is the type of player who can cost a team a playoff series.

I'm sure there are plenty of casual fans that see some hits once in a while and think he's a tough guy and love him. The MSG crowd has a ton of those guys. In fact even a non-casual fan who played hockey and I thought knew something about hockey said to my friend and me who were trashing Glass "you guys must like Zuccarello". Basically he likes Glass more than Zucc because one guy is small and the other guy is supposedly physical.

Corsi stat?
44.5%
But take him away from Dominic Moore (who's having a terrific season), and it's an abhorrent 38.7%.
Why was he on the ice against Ribero line wtf ?
No clue. Worst player in the NHL by a fair margin.
The only thing worse than AV insisting on playing him in the media being totally unwilling to press him about it.
One minute left in a one goal game, and they were both employed as meat shields - meaning they NEVER had the puck. Ever. You had to hold your breath every time those two were out there.
I remember him throwing 13 hits against Dallas statistically and not remember a SINGLE one of them.
lol, i've never seen a player so disliked in my life. There is a different thread on how bad he is every week.
No. I've never seen a player be preached by the media and coach as "bringing the physical element and hitting everything" who passes up more opportunities to finish a check than Glass. And when he does it's usually ineffective, the puck is long gone and he's just taken himself out of the play. So basically the only thing he brings is a willingness to drop the gloves, which who cares about? I care more about an effective 4th line.
BTW, Fast on our 4th line went down with a knee injury halfway thru yesterday's game and GLASS got MOVE UP to the 3rd line. What a joke AV is when it comes to this guy.
And in the defensive zone, why is Glass, as the LW, down in the right corner doing nothing? He's a friggin NHL player and he can't even get positioning SOMEWHAT right. Not like it matters because if the puck comes to him he will fail to clear and usually turn it over anyway.
That person is an idiot. Zucc may only be 5'7 but he hits more effectively than Glass regardless of size. Oh and the tiny little thing of leading the team in scoring last season and being one of the best offensive players on the team.
