You couldnt do any worse with knoblauch behind the bench...and maybe even alot better. Ide be down for that move right now.
-
Gd...how did we miss out on montgomery...may be mistaken but i recall him being an option even before we hired quinn? Team could be firing on all cylinders under him.
-
So...Gallant saying he was not happy with being outshot and wants to tinker the lines some more? Are you kidding? You could basically have a computor randomly generate the lines at this point...the guy has no vision. Does it occur to him that if one line isn't clicking, maybe they need TIME to figure it out...like as much as half a season if necessary? Bottom line is you need an actual vision for the makeup up of your lines that doesn't get shaken every time your team is not performing.

Alexis Lafreniere and the Rangers Reach a Critical Point
Jdog99 replied to Pete's topic in New York Rangers
As hard as it is for me to believe that a slam dunk #1 pick could be a bust, I will say that Kakko's athleticism/skill stood out alot more even in year 1 -

how does a laf for byfield trade look at this point? -

Jdog99 replied to Phil's topic in New York Rangers
hope this doesn't make him less hungry to prove himself? -
Alexis Lafreniere and the Rangers Reach a Critical Point
Jdog99 replied to Pete's topic in New York Rangers
well if he'll come cheap enough on his next contract, would be happy to give it another 2 seasons after this lots of fans were pretty much at the end of their rope with Chytil and then the promise started to materialize. never mind that he hasn't come close to meeting 1OA expectations, there could still be a very good player to develop -
Would be interesting to see him in that brendan smith 4th line role so we can consider have an extra D on the bench

GDT [RS #32] Rangers @ Philadelphia Flyers — Do Ya Get That, Tortsie?
Jdog99 replied to Phil's topic in New York Rangers
they should try key in that 4th line Brendan Smith role sometime -
Well...if you asked me after last seasons playoffs, I would've said Chytill should be given the a shot a the #2C rather than signing a free agent. As this point, you have to prioritize him over Laf, Kakk...Miller too if he doesn't take a big step by end of season. Then you may have 3 really good centerman you can plug in 'average' pieces around.

Total speculation from a relatively casual fan with not a single connection to an insider...but i think if Trotz was interested Drury would've already made the move (at least post the Chicago game). He doesn't strike me as gun shy.

Athanasiou Drags Trouba: 'He's an $8 million man with 0 goals,'
Jdog99 replied to Phil's topic in New York Rangers
Ive loved troubas hits in the past - important to keep the opposition honest. but this one did sorta come off as a hit for hittings sake - rather than the most ideal defensive hockey play...and he couldve hurt the guy pretty bad. -
Im all in agreement that the young ones have not been developed properly... I mean, what are the chances the rangers just happened to miss on two consensus 'cant miss' draft picks in a row?
-
Surely philly is tired of torts by now...gallant for torts? Not to win...just to punish the players

GDT [RS #26] Rangers vs Chicago Blackhawks — End the Pain
Jdog99 replied to Drew a Penalty's topic in New York Rangers
would be cool if Drury canned Gallant mid game and came down to the bench to coach himself at least it would make a statement -
At least hell come cheap like kakko
-
I think playing weak is more about team culture and style than individual players. So GG has got to be the first to go.
-
Just sayin...gotta have a back up plan in case...who would it be?
-
How bout if Trotz says no...whose the next best option?

Serious Question — is Anyone Surprised Where the Rangers Are At?
Jdog99 replied to goondman's topic in New York Rangers
Yea, im surprised. Personnel wise, this team has more high end talent than we've had the last few decades. -
Great...im happy to have laf bump either one of those guys if necessary (think panarin would do better). Old news, but its really ridiculous to have f'd with such a primier draft talent the way the rangers have with laf...especially when the team is not even winning.
