  1. Rangers played well today aside from the 10 minute sequence in the second. I hope Lav keeps the lines the same and doesn’t freak out because there is so much going right rn even if the results aren’t showing just yet. It’s crazy how much the defense improves when you replace a revolving door of anchors for the 6th dman like we had last year for Gustafson.

    Also Jones makes some crispy passes, we absolutely have to keep developing him and letting get stints of playing time through this season because his potential is really high.

    Someone needs to tell trouba to stop shooting fucking slap shots that are never accurate from the point. We just constantly lose possession or momentum in the ozone because they got blocked or bounce straight to the other team off the glass.

  2. darkgrayallalone

    That was much less fun than Thursday

    Hopefully they can bounce back

  3. Sjdillon10

    Literally all of us knew the 2 goals called back meant we wouldn’t score again. Took all the air out of our sails

  4. JPmoneyman

    Shots were 41-21, I know the game script kinda dictated Columbus sitting back and playing D for the 3rd period but I don’t hate the way we played. We created a lot of traffic around the goal and never quit on the game. Bad luck all night. At least we don’t look lifeless.

  5. serialragequitter

    omg someone fix their mic in this Fox post-game interview

    [Cuylle’s First Goal](https://streamable.com/x21mer)

    ​

    Spent most of the game trying to learn how to screen capture clips without them being so laggy. Finally figured it out, I think. Enjoy Cuylle’s 1st again

    Edit: How does one post a link but reword the URL? Like instead of seeing [http://stream](http://stream)….. I’d just like to have “Cuylle’s First” and make it so people can just click that text to got the link. I’m not sure if I’m explaining it correct

  7. Despite the loss, think we still played pretty well. Having 2 goals taken away from us in a pretty short stretch definitely hurt our momentum. Schneider and jones did not look good, hopefully Lindgren’s injury isn’t serious.

    Would’ve loved to have these points, but it’s game 2.

  8. toxicvegeta08

    We played amazingly.

    This wasn’t us taking basic awful shots we legit fired amazingly set up great shots vs them.

    My only issue is they outmuscled us(which few teams can do) leading to a lot of takeaways.

    Most of the goals weren’t much of igors fault but it does worry me if an elite defense is gonna make him go cold between shots. A lot of his best games involve him just being a God with a shot at him every 2 or 3 minutes.

  9. DanTheMortgageMan

    The fact that they didn’t just roll over and accept defeat says a lot. Hopefully they can keep that mindset for the next 80.

  10. I mean if they play like that every game they’re gonna win a lot more than they lose

  11. 32_63n-117_14w

    The team has turned into a lot better condition compared to last year. I love we are showing grit and fighting until the last second. The new changes are working and it’s understandable the players are gonna need some time to adapt to the new system and also experiment with different techniques

  12. Felt like we played well and had a lot of bad luck along with those two goals called back. Not a loss to be worried about, the big thing to watch is how the game Monday night goes

  13. jkman61494

    Every underachieving trope we see in this game happened. One of the weirdest games I can remember

  14. blueline7677

    To brighten everyone’s day we had some more prospects light it up today:

    Brody Lamb: 1G 1A

    Noah Laba: 2G

    Othmann: 1A

  15. Sean-Avery

    Agree with everyone pointing out how they dominated on possession and I loved the fight… but 3 goals on 42 shots ain’t it either. Esp considering Gustaffson’s goal was pretty flukey lol. Power play has to be better. I think they’ll be fine, just need to get cooking

  16. ItsHeadbangerG

    First and third periods were solid, second one doomed us. Defense reverted to a showing right out of last year, and Colombus was firing on all cylinders. Of course those two goals being called back didn’t help, and it surely impacted morale.

    Anyway it’s game 2 of 82, if you’re out here panicking already, I [implore](https://youtu.be/l60MnDJklnM?si=MB07SDQWBA2P-gub) you to reconsider. Lets go home and stomp the yotes.

    See ya Monday.

  17. Put up a good effort and got a bit unlucky offensively but still can’t finish like stretches we went through last year. It is alarming how bad our 3rd pairing was. Not sure if we can win consistently against good teams with those two on D.

  18. trappedinthedesert

    this certainly hurts our chances of going 82-0-0 this season

  19. elfinito77

    I am very excited about Bread’s play and energy level the first 2 games.

    Not sure if Lav said something to him or he just reflected in the off-season…but he’s playing with purpose to start the season…

    It’s early and lots of season left, and he needs to keep it up….BIUT, I am really fucking excited about his play these 2 games.

  20. JukemanJenkins

    Panarin and Lafreniere look very sharp.

    They threw more than 40 shots on net. Hopefully Lindgren isn’t out long term, but the focus should be starting the season off well at home against the Coyotes.

  21. HowardHughes529

    Seasons over. We lost a game.. in all seriousness, couple of unlucky calls didn’t go our way. I’m still stoked for this season. Boys look like they have potential to be great. Except zac jones- fuck that guy.
