  1. Hindsight 20/20, but if a player is injured they shouldn’t play

  2. JPmoneyman

    Pretty obviously the case. Tom Wilson is such a flow for going after him after that.

  3. Key-Tip-7521

    And Fox was still one of the best dman for the rangers this playoffs(series v the cats)

  4. FoghornLeghorn999

    Fox injury was obvious, that’s why I generally did not give him shit.

  5. HideousControlNow

    Oh yeah, no shit.

    We all knew this already.

  6. I don’t get why I can’t see any of these actually on Twitter am I missing something??

  7. Two defensemen playing straight up injured was never gonna work.

    So the first thing we do next year to Nick Jensen is knock him out of a game. Simple. Don’t let Rempe do it since he needs games but sign a goon and have him take Jensen’s head off for fucking with our top dman and ruining our cup chances.

    No s***, I’m Joe Shmo off the street and I could’ve told you that.

    Can he get surgery like tomorrow?

    I knew we’d find out Fox and Trouba were nursing injuries, it was very obvious. Is Mika injured also? He looked like it.

    I know all eyes are on the pre and post Nick Jensen but to my eyes he was playing 75% all year. Not nearly the same jump. Meaning that he never recovered from the first knee injury and for some reason kept playing through it as we were winning every night regardless.

    Concerning. Hockey “gotta play no matter what” attitude strikes yet again

    All our depth trades and rotation moves to get guys ready for playoffs were completely wasted when Lav and the guys decided to play hurt (and worse) instead of sitting out to let our depth pick up the slack.

    We rotated in Chytil and Wheeler who missed a vast majority of the season’s success, and never once rotated in Jones who saw some of the team’s successes near the end of the regular season.

    Hindsight is 20/20, but what a damn shame.
