GDT [RS #23) Rangers vs. New Jersey Devils — The Greatest Trick the Devil Ever Pulled Was Convincing the Rangers They Were Good

[Lord Al]

At this point the fans should start, Channing, fire, Gallant, or fire Drury or this is bullshit

Id bet no

 

You'd be wrong. This is about as great of a gig as any for any coach without a current role.

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

Yeah, that makes me feel a whole lot better.

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

Hard to tell when for some reason Vesey is now our featured player.

By then bedard should be coming into his own and we can afford to get someone good to play with him 

[Sharpshooter]

It could be less if they buy him out. Then think about all that dead cap space there will be for years!

Kappo Kakko: doing everything he can to ensure that nobody on the ice, on either team, is scoring.

If we had Bedard we'd play him as a 4th line checker so Vesey, Gauthier and even bring back McKegg so he can play top line minutes.

Double threat guy.

[jsm7302]

If Gallant has a job after tonight, I'll be floored. I said it before; we will know by tonight if he is sticking around. This guy is cooked. Time to move on.

[Sharpshooter]

Bedard would be Brad Isbister here or something.

[Blue Heaven]

Season can still be saved, but the time is now to make moves....STL won the Cup, they were in last place in the NHL on January 2nd.....STL fired Yeo on November 19th.

He'd be gone if it was me, but something tells me Drury is going to sit on his hands for a while on this one.

That is insane to mail in a season for absolutely no reason. Dude has lost the room and in order to recover they need someone calling the shots and holding everyone accountable.

[cupalife]

It's shocking how lifeless this team is.  No passion whatsoever.  No scrums, hits, fights, nothing.  They are just happy to lose.  Panarin and Mika got their goal and if they lose 8-2 they are happy because they scored.  

 

Who on this team is in that locker room getting into people's faces and calling them out?  Fox, Mika, Panarin, Kreider, Trouba?  Are we kidding here?  This is the core they have chose.   

 

Count the rink turns in period 3.  Guy rink turns once he should be warned by the coach.  Twice it's the bench.   Happens again scratch next game. Mika, Panarin, Kakko, lead the league in them.  Pussy ass poke checks instead of playing the body is a team skill.  

 

Honestly this team does need a rebuild. And let's not rebuild with guys under 25 who have demanded out of their drafted cities.  Entitled douchebags.  What do you expect?

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

Maybe, as long as one of them has a structure/system in mind to build the current players on the roster. I think @Phil or @Pete mentioned this couple of times previous threads and they are right….

Exactly how I feel. I don’t think GG is going anywhere until things really start to go bad. This is nothing. 

[cupalife]

Rangers badly need someone who can kick some ass in the locker room.
