New York Rangers are one of the top teams in the entire NHL but they do have so clear issues that will need to be fixed come playoff time.

Agree on Othman can play, he is faster than Wheeler in every sense, the only way a young player can produce is by playing him on the team , it's like molding a object into a statue. Youdon't wait for something bad to happen when you can prevent earlier or someone else will benefit from it. Kakko has been a disappointment on his inconsistent play i don't really miss him.
I would get a sniper Right Wing VATRANO or TRASENKO!! See if Chytil is back before trade deadline. Put OTTERMAN on third line!! It's been 30 YEARS since the we WON the cup!!
See I disagree as far as adding offense, we have two starters on the IR not to mention one up-and-coming kid that hasnāt really gotten his chance yet who only played around seven last game that we lost. I believe we need to target a star or superstar type talent for our defense. Our defensive zone is killing us. I definitely think itās time to move off of Wheeler. He just seems like the hunchback of Notre Dame out there. Heās like a rick Nash minus the good part a big forward that isnāt physical and doesnāt score much even in the regular season.
Tonight will be a good test against the Canucks
We gonna see how they perform againts great team Vancouver tonight..
We need a top line RW and a stay at home defenseman more than anything in the world
I like Blake, but I don't think his style of play is suitable for the way this team wants to play. Completely agree that Othmann should get a look. Brodzinski did and his offensive upside is not as high as Othmann.
No doubt league has found Rangersā weakness against aggressive forecheck. Need to emphasize simple clears under pressure. Team defense has to be top priority!!
I agree with getting Vatrano or maybe Tarasenko. They are both proven goal scorers. They also need another defenseman.
Wheeler horrible. so is Bonino and Goodrow
Iāve been saying this for many years we still donāt have a playoff team and last year was an absolute joke ! This team is above average for the season and below average for the playoffs. Same crap will happen again this year! 30 years and counting for another cup is ridiculous!
our main issue has been us transitioning to highway play. We are good with out it.
3C is the absolute priority. Cup teams are great down the middle. No way we make a run with Bonino as 3C. Third line is almost unplayable. Chytil is not coming back.
I've been a Rangers fan for over 30 years and I can, without a doubt tell you EXACTLY what the problem is with them. It's been the same problem they've had for years. That problem is "will they show up" It's the most frustrating thing to have one of if not the best hockey team in the league on paper year after year after year, and going nowhere. No matter how much talent we have on this team at the end of the day any game can be won or lost depending on if the team actually gives a shit that night. Very rarely do you see half the team putting in effort also. For some reason it's almost an all or nothing thing. One exception to this rule was Henrik Lundqvist. I'm not saying he was perfect because no human being is, but there were many many games where he left it all on the ice and not one other player on the Rangers showed half the effort. I will never ever understand what that is either. I will never understand how people who make millions of dollars a year to play a sport for a living just don't feel like showing up in a game sometimes. They skate slow, they throw bad passes that get intercepted, can't play defense to save their life, and can't win a face off, some nights. But when they do actually decide to show up they run circles around the competition. We can play all these games with move this player here and move this player there but at the end of the day this team should be crushing every opponent in the league. I wish there was one person in the world that could figure out the formula to getting the New York Rangers to play like they give a shit every single game. Because when they do they are unstoppable.
You're right about Othmann. Zibby, Oth, and Kreids would be fire.
They donāt need anymore d they have 5 realy good ones 6
I agree. Wheeler seems lost out there on the first line. I would make the switch with Othmann and see what happens. Why not!
The sky is falling.
Krider for all his size needs a bit of bite to his game..the issue with the Rangers is not enough north/south and for many years itās too much east/west. Need a bit of grit to the lineup.
My only issue is Laviolette. I hated him on the capitals. Kudos to him for having success with the rangers but he prevented young guys from getting the opportunity. Iām seeing a lot of young guys get the nod this year for the rangers so that might be because of the GM for the caps instead. (And the rangers GM pushing lavi to give young guys the nod). Our players were performing worse under Laviolette. When an opposing coach figures out Laviolette, the games over. So many games the camera pans to him looking aloof.
Blake Wheeler hasnāt just ānot been the bestā. Heās been TERRIBLE. Contributes 0 to the team. Looks like he skates and shoots in slow motion.
What does management see in Wheeler? it's not that he is bad he is horrible, slowest player on the team and he is slowing down the entire line he just stands around and is completely lost. Why can't they see this? He should be cut immediately he is not even top 9 never mind playing with the top line. Patrick Kane has 14 points in 16 games playing on a very mediocre team he should of been here I don't know what the hell we are thinking but we are going nowhere fast with Wheeler on the top line / team.
I dont like when people think its easy to play the off wing.
K'Andre Miller is an awful defender.
Kakko doesnt belong on the top two lines and Chytil is not coming back. Kakko needs to handle the puck. He is a 3RW.
The big issue is Igor Shesterkin.
yup…. last night also perfect example of mistakes when getting back checked.
great video
Hey if anyone remembers the 94 Rangers were no playoff team before the trade deadline and look what they did.
As a long time Rangers fan and for the most part, I've been enjoying watching the team this year. However, over the past month or so, they've been playing from behind in more games than not. One of the things I remember about the '93 / '94 cup team is that they almost always scored the first goal. That hasn't been happening lately. They seem to need a stronger effort at the start of the game and get the early lead.
