Patrick Kane and Vincent Trocheck are among the many New York Rangers who didn’t get the job done in the Blueshirts’ first-round series loss to the New Jersey Devils. Igor Shesterkin is far and away the best player for the Rangers, and you’ll probably be even madder about the team’s playoff defeat when you look at Igor’s stats. Episode 819.

Coaching gets the best out of highly rated players. Laffy is 21, what ya gonna get a second round pick? Same with Kakko. Should be focusing more on the lack of coaching of these young players.
I think they will sign Vlad. He pulled his kids out of school and enrolled them here. I don't think he would have done that unless he knew something.
Again rangers fans kinda unfairly blaming Laff cuz just his draft status means he’ll be point per game he played well especially defensively also had a goal taken away which should count for something in this dudes dumbass list since he’s talking about 2 on 1s and shit where was pans tin and Mika if they are allowed to have shit series than Ladd is too and Jakob and Chetnik did next to nothing as well and I think they played fine too
Kids should get another shot with a different coach. We need VT to be resigned. He did good imo
I think Kane goes and they should resign Motte, Tarasenko or both. Have Kaako move up to 2RW
Bro your Kane take is so bad did you actually watch any of the games and I think your mixing up the back passes to no one that was panarin and Kane at least looked like he was trying in game 7 Mika panarin and fox looked like they were daydreaming
Nothing felt off with Kane maybe the voices in your head telling you to spew this nonsense is what was off
Kreider-Mika-Kakko
Lafreniere-Chytil-Senko/FA
Panarin-Trocheck-Senko/FA
The NYR's have been a 3rd place most of the season. I'm disappointed in the defense but moreover the fowards… and that's all season. I didn't think they'd make it this far.
Shesterkin was awesome. I was expecting great things from him, Vasilevskiy, and Sorokin; too bad that Igor was the only one who delivered.
The funny thing about those young Devils forwards: they all had fewer points than Jason Robertson, who also disappeared for long stretches of the series against the Wild.
Here's a good idea….. Trade away there SOFTEST, WEAKEST, Most SCARED Players for players that play with HEART & BALLS Like: Lemieux, Reeves, Fast, Hunt, Blais, & Brendan Smith. This will toughen them up… and makes perfect sense… Muahahaha…mwahahahaghh…mwhahahahhhgk! – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnMQUGd-XYk
Panarin and Kane should go……a couple of lightweights
Rangers need to trade Lafrenière, they just don't seem capable of developing players. Why not get some draft picks back to make up for their TDL moves. Could maybe get a 2nd and a 5/6th for him.
Laf has so much potential, would love to see him on a different team.
How can you not totally bash the highest paid winger in the league … Last year he was like 16th in points and was the only minus ….. He’s to soft for the playoffs.
Trouba needs to go. He is slow and is sloppy with the puck. Big hits don’t make up for it.
Now that it's been a few days its easier to see what this series was. The Rangers dominated for 3 games and the devils dominated for 3 games. The difference maker was game 3 which went to OT. When you look at it this way it's really not as bad as it seems.
The NY Rangers need a Rebuild.
motte should be back
Kreider is by far the MOST SOFT, SISSY-WEAK, HEARTLESS, PATHETIC, Hockey players I have ever seen. I just don't understand him. I am not talking about his net front goal's. The rest of his game is terrible. Does he not watch himself on replay of these games?…. His board Play is probably the WEAKEST & SOFTEST in the entire NHL. And I'm not even exaggerating. His stick & arms freezes in time in scrums & puck battles. It doesn't look like he's trying at all(except net front). He gives the other teams nice soft hugs along the boards instead of delivering any hits. It's the weirdest thing. You have to watch him on YouTube or DVR… and watch it on slo-mo. It's almost like he's not a real human being — and he is A.I. that has no soul — and has a dark magician over him holding a remote control fucking with him & us. And I'm not even trying to be mean or funny. This is after deep, careful analysis watching him.
Thanks
As I've said in the past, the difference between Hughes and Kakko/Laf, is that Hughes didn't have the "benefit" of David Quinn's coaching philosophy. Quinn squeezed all the juice out of them.
Fox is atrocious – him and panarin not built for the playoffs. Fox looks tired and lazy 100% of the time. Vlad and Kane way too much of a defensive liability. Need forwards who can grind and help the defense in the playoffs and backcheck. Some massive changes need to be made, blow it the f up. Tired of this team doing the same shit every year.
Kane was invisible aside from Game 2. He needs to go ASAP. We're stuck with Panarin unfortunately so we have to try and just get some more gritty playoff guys to make up for his inevitable playoff goose eggs. Rangers are way too soft and it reared it's ugly head this series. Someone needs to find out what the heck happened to Adam Fox this year, and Miller took a major step backwards as well. Not good, not good at all.
Igor played incredibly well,I agree,after that it goes down fast…
LaFreniere sign him to 10 million, he’s amazing, did you see that effort!
Zibanejad had one great playoffs last year but all other playoffs he was a bust. 30 years old, will lose a step soon…rangers have a lot of 30 year old forwards, never sign 30 year old forwards to long deals, 95% of time ends really badly
Who istop you talking to different players Laffy should not be on the third freaking line. He should be on the number one line actually both him and Kakko should be one and two. This is bullshit having them on the third line they don’t get enough ice time and they don’t get a chance to play up to their ability with top players. The kid line got the least amount of shifts & minutes, just horrible
Rangers should trade Laffy and Panarin. They need to get deeper and also sign Teresenko
Trocheck has always been a mid/ overrated player who doesn't come up big, he's a prefect fit for the rags. Please keep thinking he's a good top 6 center 🤣. Looking forward to Igor learning from Hanks cupless career and signing elsewhere, he's the only ranger who gives them a chance.
They played nothing like they did in last years playoffs soon as I saw them playing like it was a late November mid December losing streak I knew we where in trouble
