Serious question.  Is Goodrow playing tonight?

He's in line with Laf waiting for the prime rib.

I think changes have to be made, but not sure what a new coach (assuming its Trotz) can do with this team. They just can't seem to play for a full 60

Who on this team is a Trotz style player except maybe Trocheck, Trouba, Schneider and Lindgren? our team isn't built for his style.

Kind of curious why you are pro-Gallant?

I’ll save that for a Gallant thread as I don’t want to get into the back and forth of him and derail a GDT. 
 

But I’ll say this: I do see why so many people aren’t a fan. He definitely has his flaws. All coaches do. His are rising to the surface here right now because of how bad we look.

Fox gets dumped away from the puck on the PP. No penalty. No team reaction. 

 

Maybe it's not Gallant. Maybe it's the locker-room.

They go after every loose puck, and seem to believe that every loose puck is rightfully theirs

They are very fast. Meanwhile Lafreniere can’t skate in a straight line.

This is some serious ass whipping. Embarrassing. .

Actually a new coach would probably help that seeing as they clearly don't respect this one.

Players coach, whose players seem to not want to play for him

[Lord Al]

Would you bring in Rick Tocchet right now as head coach?

There is such a thing as being too much of player's coach, and he's it.

And drafting. And coaching selection(s)

Lets calm down here. Everyone here hated Lindy Ruff. Like bad. Let's not act like he's an ideal choice that the Rangers should have brought in. They had him. They didn't and the fans didn't want him.

Curious as to what style this team is built for. 82 games, and the beach?

[Valriera]

Gallant was clearly the right choice after last year but not anymore 

[Blue Heaven]

Rangers need a shitkicker as coach, not another players coach.  Last 3 coaches have been players coaches....time to flip it upside down

They haven't played a full 60 consistently for the last 3 head coaches.

In all fairness, these players probably don’t want to play to anyone…

This team, mentally, looks fried.

Could be. Would any big name coach really want to come here?

Id bet no

[NYRangers93]

Just to make things even better Trouba’s cap hit is 8 mill each of the next 3 years
