    Is anyone else just not that worried about the team? We’re missing Kakko, chytil, and goodrow. That’s a really solid 3rd line in the NHL. Has our defense and goaltending been sloppy? Yes. Have there been some amazing goalie performances the Rangers have faced? Also yes. I feel like vs the sens and the caps the rangers had 10+ amazing chances that just didn’t find the back of the net. 1 or 2 of those go in and momentum changes. I still feel great about this team.

  3. silversappho

    Looking forward to this, especially because the Rangers haven’t played since Tuesday!

  4. Please Rangers don’t make me dislike these new jerseys right off the bat

  5. I wasn’t able to watch last night…looks like I dodged a bullet. I’m gonna get back to watching, and this team should get back to winning.

  6. Anyone interested in tickets to tonight’s game, season ticket holder here. Something came up and can’t make tonight’s game.

    Section 101 Row 10 seats 13, 14

    Looking for $300 for the pair

    Dm me if interested, LGR!

  7. Picked a good night yesterday to go out with my GF – hopefully tonight’s a better effort

  8. Sjdillon10

    Going to my first game in a decade and i gotta see them wearing these awful alternate jerseys

  9. Dont_know_where_i_am

    Given how the team has looked recently, and that they want to let Othmann marinate in Hartford, maybe they should think about calling up Berard. He hasn’t exactly been lighting it up down there but to me it makes sense.

    Per the prospect rankings from Vince this summer – ““He’s a [jerk] to play against,” he said. “There’s no other way to put it.”” and “Berard flourished as a speedy forechecker and playmaker on an energetic third line,”

    Sounds like what the Rangers need right now. Create a third line of Cuylle, Brodz, Berard. Put Wheeler back on the first line because that line wasn’t terrible when they played together. Shuffle Bonino and Goodrow between Pitlick and Vesey. Bonino will block more shots and win more faceoffs, while Goodrow has some more speed and will do more hitting. Both are terrible at possession and honestly shouldn’t be playing but we all know they will.

    Kakko can’t come back until after Christmas at the earliest, and Chytil will likely be back after the holidays, at least that’s my guess. We need to weather the storm until then and playing guys who suck as possession, and are too slow to help break up rushes is absolutely killing us.

  10. _Tony_Gunk_

    Is there any harm in seeing how Othmann looks on the top line?

  11. chickichuglette

    Did Goodrow break something other than his tooth?

  12. Just hope we don’t play like we did the last couple games tonight. LA is a good team

  13. njerejeje

    At 5v5, the Panarin-Trocheck-Lafreniere line has 11 goals for, but has allowed 15 goals against.

  14. chickichuglette

    When you see our lineup on paper it’s no surprise we’re in a bit of a slump right now. AHL guy on line 1 and lines 3 & 4 have little chance of producing much offense.
