NY Rangers General Thread

If he were consistent like you expect him to be, he’d be starting on a playoff contender right now.

He’s a backup BECAUSE he’s inconsistent and is 37 years old.

Holy hell man.

 

If he was a .500 goaltender last season, the Rangers finish in first place in the division. Is .500 REALLY too much to ask from a backup goaltender? Last year's stats sure don't make it seem like a major ask.

Peter Laviolette named the new HC

 

Someone tell me how I should feel about this HC signing

 

Eh?

 

Historically he’s a good coach but hard to be excited about him after his Caps tenure.

 

Yeah, he's been a very good coach.... I'm guessing he must be a major A-hole the way he always gets shipped out though.

 

Carl Hagelin retires. I always liked CH and hated to see him leave. All the best to him.

Tortorella really wasted his talent. He had no clue how to coach someone like Hags. Real shame.

 

With the Jets being the utter dumpster fire that they are, I could not believe how happy I was to watch a pre-season hockey game last night!

 

Jonothan Quick is looking anything but.

 

I was really confident going into last season, this year, not so much.

 

There is no excuse for this team to not make the playoffs.

None

 

Oh, I think we're a playoff team, just not a serious contender for the cup. Hope I'm wrong.

 

Up, Down, Up, Down. This is going to be a rough season.

 

I want to see the Rangers CRUSH Holy St. McDavid tonight.

 

and crush they did…

Anytime an original six team does something for the first time in history, that is impressive. Sweeping five games across Canada is amazing.
