THIS MUST BE A JOKE… TOO SMALL, ZERO OFFENSE, UNABLE TO CARRY PUCK ON A BREAKOUT, RESULTING IN RANGERS TRAPPED IN D ZONE AGAINST GOOD PLAYOFF FORECHECKING.. DO NOT FORGET, INJURED ALL THE TIME…. AND STOP WITH THE TOUGH AS NAILS BS… HE GETS FLATTENED BY BIGGER PLAYERS, AND GETS HURT, THAT MAKES HIM TOUGH…STOP THAT NONSENSE… TRADE HIM, HE WAS OVERMATCHED 3 YEARS IN A ROW IN THE PLAYOFFS… PLAYOFF TEAMS HAVE THE BOOK ON LINDGREN, FORECHECK HIM, AND HE WILL THROW THE PUCK AWAY.. THREE YEARS STRAIGHT IN THE PLAYOFFS, I WATCHED HI TRAPPED IN HIS OWN ZONE, UNABLE TO ADVANCE THE PUCK.. HE IS A ROAD CONE….
Lindgren needs to figure out how to stay injury free. He is ALWAYS hobbled at the end of the season.
I really respect Lingren but these last years have proven that he is too small and not wise enough to keep himself from being in positions where he can be hurt against larger players on the top lines. I think it's time to try Miller on the top line with Fox, and try Schneider and Lingren on the second line. Play Truba on the third line with Zac Jones.
I haven’t watched one second of the cup final. Screw both teams.
I’d love to keep him, but I wouldn’t pay him more than 3 million a season.
If teams got word we are offering Lindgren 4 x 4 I think a handful of teams would make offer sheets. I think at 26 and his style of play I am around 6 x 5
We may want to see what we can get for Lindgren, as much as I love him. His style of play just doesn't seem to conducive to a long term career. We may have gotten his best years already. Kinda reminds me of the track Girardi was on. I understand the sentimental value… But I would see what we could get if we shopped him
NO !!!!! TOO small as NHL defenseman….keeps getting hurt…..Great attitude but wont last long
Not sure about him. He is not going to age well and his play is not that great for a top defenseman. He stepped up in the playoffs but I feel like we can find a better defenseman for cheaper. Too risky.
Dump the crash test dummy please…
Girardi was a turn over machine too
Why do you guys cry over keeping some of these bums, chase after former Rangers, overpay for names on the back end of their careers and expect to see different results? How about we use our pipeline? Let there be a learning curve…you can’t cheat maturation. What good is our youth if we don’t let them play? Nobody gets better playing in the AHL.
Someone told you this was going to happen. Told you to write it down. “As long as Mika and Chris are on this roster, we are never winning a cup” selfish, soft and weak minded.
Tough, yes.
Smart, no.
Take care Ryan.
Looks fast when he’s playing alongside the slowest defender in the NHL…
Lindgren will end up with a five-year deal
Rangers need to be very selective who they deem a core player. The NHL is still a hard cap league.
Disagree. Ryan Lindgren sucks. Get Fox a real partner.
You just got finished seeing us getting pushed around and bullied by bigger forwards and defensemen and you want to give the injury prone, small and zero offense player an extension. Lmao
Use Miller as trade bait. Guy is to soft
An overtime loss is not "just a loss". Two overtime losses are the equivalent in points as a regulation one loss and one win.
Hate to say it but disagree with this one.
