I want a detailed explanation of how the Quinn defensive system is supposed to work and where it is breaking down. This kind of lopsided shot count cannot be the plan. Either the system is too difficult to execute or we just don't have the personnel who can do it. Whichever it is, there needs to be a plan B.Originally Posted by Blueshirts1926

I thought they were much better defensively tonight minus the brutal start. They had it on lock in the 3rd, which came at the expense of doing anything going forward but I wanted them to just focus on D for a while.
Was it vs the piles?
This is misleading. ADA had a minute less than Staal and they took 5 penalities where ADA and Fox don't play.
I'm pretty sure ADA was on the ice for the 2 ES goals against. He had 2G and was -1.

Kakko got 9:51 of ice. Brendan Smith was on every other shift in the 3rd.
Are we gonna have to start talking about sending Kakko down? What is going on here?

I think they should send both kakko and fox down.
I'm still going back and forth on Player of the Game; I'd like to vote for Georgie boy because of his solid effort, but he didn't get the "W" after all. Gonna go with ADA, even though he was minus 1000.
ADA is what he is, and will most likely lead the defensive squad in most offensive categories....including nose hair!
One thing's for sure though, I'm out of Jack Daniels!!!
The only positive from Kakko is maybe people will stop thinking that Finnish league is good. It's not. I've had it on par with Ontario Sr. A hockey since Jokerit left and the KHL became a thing. It's semi-pro.
Didn't Kakko open a can of whoop ass on Canada at World's?
I dunno, I guess? Nobody pays attention to that here.
World's isn't that good either, in all fairness. It's played at snails pace and the NHL guys that go over mostly go for shits & giggles.
What Kakko did was impressive, of course it was. But the fact that Finnish team was able to win it tells you something.
who was the board member that used to bang his wife between periods for good luck.
Quinn's decision making continues to leave a lot to be desired. i know he's grasping at straws to find something that works but almost looks like he's panicking with some of those line combos.

Side note, I was as unlucky as the Rangers

Oh come on Vodka!!!! Dude, I was banking on you, man!!! I even had to replace my toilet paper roll after reading your post last night!!!
You get repped for effort, my man!!!
Holy shit I was fucking mashed watching the game last night!! I did find out something very interesting though: all Quinn's coaching decisions make sense after a fifth of Jack Daniels!!!

Why Fox?
Just an aside here: Hajek had a pretty good game last night. At least I thought he looked pretty good.
I think he's been pretty solid after the first game and a half or so.
He gets beaten to pucks too often I think, but should get better there eventually.
