  1. Try NOT PLAYING YOUR GAME NEXT SEASON. Damn Jekyll and Hyde team all year!! Find an identity and make it work. Bums.

  2. You didn’t show up no one showed up!!! THE ONLY PLAYER THAT WANTED TO WIN TONIGHT WAS IGOR THATS IT!!! Horrible effort!

  3. Just say it were a bunch of chokers year after year and it’s not gonna stop until half of this team get traded for real men who can play playoffs hockey

  4. I was hoping NY wouldve approached Montreal in the trade deadline & saw what it would take to get Anderson, Edmunson AND see if there was OR is will – going forward – to inquire regarding Suzuki and Caufield. What if – assuming Igor will want out OR Drury to get serious b/c – as was the case w/ his predecessor – time runs out and before you know it your north of 35 and then the time really starts winding down. What if – Igor, Panarin, Laffy as in HaHa, and Zach Jones for Suzuk – Cough – Anderson & Joel Edmunson. Dyland Gerand takes over between the pipes. Might be time to consider bumping K. Miller down to last pairing. He needs to figure out his game with some soul searching OR approach management and move up as a forward. I'd also like to see Mika Kappo Sucko & Lindy leave town for Scheifle and Morissey. HUGE SET BACK for NyR. All season long they had issues, from lines changes, to lack of clear leader, no NHL caliber Dagger man. I really believe the team needs to make some huge shakeups. They have to consider the futures of Kappo Kakko and Alexis Lafrenniere (lick your wounds they're NHL caliber, just NOT #2 & #1 Pick overall caliber, sadly), as well as make a choice on either or both Mika ZIbanejad and Artemi Panarin. The two simply DO NOT bring grit and battle to their game and it made the difference in the series against TBL in 2022 playoffs, and in this series against NJD. They need grit that guys like Scheifle and especially Anderson bring. They also need young talent that can execute, not just skate around forever and ever… Kudos to #NJD. There's a new problem in town (namely for the Tri-State Rivals NYR & NYI) – just like Marty for 20 years – it's #JH86.

  5. Why bother rooting for this team anymore?Had a clear path to the cup with Boston losing. And what do they do? They officially let the latest cup drought turn 30.

  6. Mika is accountable cmon 1 stinking goal in 7 games! He’s weak get rid of him and panarin and fire old fart Elmer Fudd Gallant

  7. Next year. Bring in Brennan Othmann least he'll shoot the puck instead of passing all the time and turn it over in offensive zone. Puck possession in offensive zone is the key and top 6 were awful.

  8. Congratulations New Jersey. Your team showed they cared more and it paid off with a series win. Rangers are an embarrassment.

  9. Clean house, this whole current roster will never go anywhere. Yall never had the heart. Yall gave up and it was such a pathetic and disappointing effort. Yall dont deserve the fans. Done with this joke of a team

  10. Come on Mika, don't be afraid to say how you really feel. Yea, the second guy was late just about every time in this series. However, when you did have support, who usually came out with the puck?

  11. Mr overrated Zibanajed Rangers are never winning with this fool, Kredier and Panarin as their top players a collection of softees, this guy is pure finess and when the power play aint going neither is he, I would move on from this fool already, good at piling up stats in the regular season come playoff time guy is invisible if he aint scoring on the PP. and this is a Star? LMAO Rangers took 2 steps back from last year and this roster needs a major shakeup if they want to win a cup next year.

  12. horrific playoff performance. invisible most of the series, say what u will about kane and panarin but mika was just as terrible

  13. Drury’s head should be rolling. The rebuild, give me a break- compiled rusty, pace-maker, unreliable assets. Gee, what a waste… And for those “fans” at the Garden- a bunch of money-bags showing little support for the team when is really needed. I guess both deserve each other.

  14. Rangers are not winning with this soft center as our #1. Rangers need a better passionate playoff warrior as a number 1 center.

  15. Mika you need puck handling lessons, you stunk up the place, you immediately lose the puck if anyone is in your path, straight line mika. Oh, you guys have no work ethic, you laid down tonight, lazy sloppy effort.

  16. I understand the team can’t win every game but when you’re playing in the GAME 7 and you are showing absolutely no effort, hustle or heart that’s where I have a problem!

  17. So to recap – these guys and Gallant decided after game 5 that Patrick Kane was the reason the team wasn't any good 5v5 and couldn't score 5v5 or on the power play. So they got Kane demoted to 3rd line and 2nd power play line. Kane then the next two games was by far the best offensive player analytically on the Rangers, and created more offense BY HIMSELF than the first line w Zib/Kreider/Tarasenko had, in both games. He was, it turns out, by far the best offensive player on the team, he just had been shackled since he got here by being stuck w Kreider, and then w Kreider/Zib. He cannot play w these guys. He can play Patrick Kane hockey w literally any other two guys on the team but these two guys – so naturally Gallant sticks him w them. These guys shut down the team's best offensive player for 5 games. And they got him thrown off the power play. Could have used him there tonight.

  18. you cant sell me a story line next year what? kids i want grit nhl nightmare for once suspensions injuries to the other tea.s

  19. One trick Mik. Your shot does not work in the playoffs. Overpaid, far from elite.
