Sod16 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I know we've been depleted of late, but the article contains a lot of staggering stats. That a team with Panarin, Zib, Fox and CK has fewer 5-5 goals than Seattle may be the most damning. What's up!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's up is that the rest of the team is not really good. Kakko sucks, Hunt sucks, the entire 3rd line sucks and the 4th line sucks if its not Blais/Reaves-Rooney-Goodrow. The forward depth sucks. Miller (kinda) sucks, the 3rd pair sucks, our backup goalie sucks. There's a lot of sucking here unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 It was nice to see the Rangers basically shooting the puck without abandon in the Anaheim game, only to look dreadful against an average Kings team and average goaltender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 9 hours ago, G1000 said: I'm going to ask what I think is the critical question with Reilly Smith: Why the fuck is Vegas trading any of that Karlsson line out of desperation? Sure, Eichel's imminent, but Pacioretty is out for a while here too. They missed Stone for a month+. They already had Pacioretty out earlier this year. FAM's cap hit is on LTIR too. Based on the accruals and timelines and what-not, they probably need 5M in space to "activate" Eichel. Why aren't they just calling up the Coyotes and offering a pick to take, say, Dadonov? He stinks, he makes as much as Reilly Smith, and the Coyotes don't have enough contracts in the org next season to ice a team. LOL.. What's Dadonovs contract look like? He'd be an improvement over the Rangers RW dilemma. Jeez. It's almost as if they should have kept. ... ahh Nevermind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a top top PP and PK + arguably the leagues best goalie and defender in the league is often enough to make a team atleast "good".

Wanting the team to win and understanding that they have massive holes are two completely different things. Go look up Igor's PK SV% on the PK and you'll see why they're a top PK team. If you can't debate like and adult and leave the last line out then just toss me on ignore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Igor has barely played 50% of the games this season (21 of 37) so it's obviously not all to his credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Igor has barely played 50% of the games this season (21 of 37) so it's obviously not all to his credit. Last time I checked it took more than a good player to win, or Edmonton would have many more cups. The Rangers win when they get exceptional goaltending. Meaning if Igor or Geo are just replacement level on a given night, the team has no chance to win. If they don't score on the PP, they will likely only score 1 or 2 at 5v5. What do you think happens in the playoffs when the whistles get put away? Regardless, the fact that Drury is looking for a RW and defense just solidifies my point. Everyone can see this, regardless of the record. Tampa was the best team in the NHL wire to wire and got swept in R1, so the record is a nice to have but it doesn't mean there isn't work to do.

Jdog99 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 With Chytil starting to look good in a Top 6 RW role, the attention should be turned back to C depth, for 3C and/or eventual Strome replacement/insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
