  1. I will rep anyone with the correct answer, and encourage others to rep correct answers as well. In the upcoming road trip: Dec 28 at Toronto Win, 2 points Dec 31 at Edmonton Loss, 0 points Jan 2 at Calgary Loss, 0 points Jan 4 at Vancouver, 0 points How many points (0-8) will the team accumulate (2 points for win, 1 point for loss in OT or shootout) over the four game trip? Total: 2 points
  2. I've seen in several GDT and elsewhere questions about what the Rangers' team identity is under Quinn. I'm encouraging those thoughts to be shared in this thread. Rangers are allowing 2nd most goals per game (behind only Detroit) http://www.nhl.com/stats/team?reportType=season&seasonFrom=20192020&seasonTo=20192020&gameType=2&filter=gamesPlayed,gte,1&sort=goalsAgainstPerGame Lundqvist is 30th in save percentage, Georgiev 39th in save percentage. http://www.nhl.com/stats/player?report=goaliesummary&reportType=season&seasonFrom=20192020&seasonTo=20192020&gameType=2&filter=gamesPlayed,gte,1&sort=savePctg Let's say we can get to league-average in goaltending with a combination of Lundqvist, Georgiev, and Shesterkin. That means some nights they'll pitch a shutout, but some nights we might still give up 4 or 5 goals a game. I see at least 3 approaches. 1. The Florida Panthers approach-emphasis on scoring and the power play. Defensemen pinch in offensive zone and emphasis is on attack. Cons: odd man rushes against, give up more goals. 2. The Ottawa Senators approach- emphasis on grit, hard work, and fulfilling your role - outworking opponent. Cons: difficult to maintain intensity for a 82 game regular season and postseason. 3. The Rangers Tortorella approach-emphasis on lock-down defense and shot blocking. Defensemen better not pinch in offensive zone and not make a play. Cons: sacrifice offense, physical grind on players. I don't see this team making the playoffs without better play from our defensemen and goalies. But given the 3 approaches, I think our roster is best suited to the Florida Panthers approach. We would need to continue to improve our power play. More and more of the players on our roster are offensive-oriented, and haven't shown the inclination to work in the defensive zone. There are many other approaches, so feel free to share alternative team philosophies that would suit our roster.
