Lets hope that horrible slide is behind them and they can focus on staying well above .500 and the playoffs.

Splitting Krieder and Zib has helped, even though Mika is still pretty snake bit. You can tell he is squeezing the stick and opting to pass first because his confidence is gone. Hope it comes back at the right time.

Huge contributions from 3rd and 4th lines in this last stretch that started during the losing streak. Edstrom is a very good player and uses his size well. He seems like a very smart player, with soft hands and surprising speed for his size. Nice to see these guys get on the scoring sheet and make a difference in the games. It seems to take the pressure off 1/2 lines, as they are the main focus of defense, and they aren't exactly lighting the lamp with consistency like before. IF Rempe can stay away from fighting and boarding penalties, he can be a good player.

The defense has looked better also, and when there is the lapse, Igor has been great. Last 3 games giving up only 1 goal that went off a skate.

Adam Fox looks like he is back to being that Leetch like crafty smooth skating keep the puck away PPQB smart player.
Miller is hot and cold, sometimes looks great, sometimes looks down. He has a huge upside, but his inconsistent play is tough to swallow.

I don't know if we are out of the woods yet, but I am cautiously optimistic.

Lets Go Rangers.

I don't buy that "they played good enough to win" BS from Sam and Joe and company. They were outplayed again, with zero fight for the puck.
They are back to playing the outside game, and way too much passing, which isn't crisp and usually leads to turnovers. I just don't understand passing the puck even trying to skate though the neutral zone with no pressure on them, into an area that has 1-2 defenders, just to pass the puck up? At least 5 times last night they had a chance to skate the puck into the O zone or out of the D zone and they pass it to a head man who is covered.

20 and 93 are playing better, but that snake is still biting them. We got a few days before Boston...they better come out refreshed and ready.

Another loss today.

I'm guessing there's more going on with this team than what we're seeing on the ice.

Sure as hell not seeing much going on while they're skating, or making believe that are doing that...

As a fan who had high expectations for this season, it's deflating.

Drury did nothing in the off-season to match up with Florida and the team knows it.
Mika seems scared or disinterested.

Time for the “ core” to be changed they have their window and never broke through it.

Kreider ( thanks for the years but he’s washed)
Mika to be fair has improved alittle since we got JT back but if they can move him for anything I’d do it. The cap hit is brutal though

k Andre Miller one of the most frustrating parts is he has potential but often does his stick checking instead of taking the body. He should be moved as he has value.

In the right deal I’d move Panarin even Fox who is a shell of himself defensively.

I would take guys like Scheinder and Borgen as my D men anyday. Not flashy but take the body play heavy and move the puck.

If possible they should move heaven and earth to get Brady Tkachuk. The guy is a human wrecking ball with offensive skill around the net.

Rant over. Lol

Things are going from bad to worse it seems.......Igor gives up 5 goals in 1st period last night.

What the heck is going on?

The single worst season I can remember. Last night was dreadful. Team has no heart. Can't get the puck out of their own zone.

They have no guts. Kreider been a mainstay for years and had a few real good ones, but he’s back to what he was, not even. Your top guys are supposed to show up every nite.
I don’t blame everything on the coach but he’s gotta go.

So does the “core”
Move Kreider, move Mika even if I have to retain half his salary, Kandre Miller is soft as they come most nites too. Fox is soft too.
give me defenseman who play defense and don’t let guys just walk around the net to the front with no repercussions.

I’d take a team of Will Cuylles any day over this bunch.

Laffy and Panarin too , if u got offered something good take it. We need a total overhaul.

Time for the “letter” to come back out to the fans.

I was at last nights dumpster fire. I can not remember seeing a worse played hockey game by the NYR.
I was actually there because a coworkers son is on the Flames, so we were there to see #27 play at MSG, and the kid scored the GWG, and that became the highlight for us, but boy watching my Rangers give zero effort sealed the deal on this season for me.

Bad loss today. Now 2 points out of a playoff spot with 6 games to go.

Needless to say, gonna be some changes this off-season.

Nail in the coffin. Lol

Guys couldn’t show up.

K. miller terrible as usual, soucy is horrific, all the other players don’t care either.

Another heartless performance and the wasting of yet another premier goalie in his prime!

As disappointing a season for any sports team that I can recall.........Dont even care if they make the playoffs....

Game is on TNT tonight, with Sam and JD calling the game like the old days.
Unfortunately, I will be at the game with work, so I can't even look forward to some "Oh Baby's"
Time for the rebuild......put JD back in charge!

they are officially dead and buried .

A coach who doesn’t address his team after games is ridiculous.

Drury and Lav need to go.

Drury had his shot to get them where they needed to be last few years.

Could have have guentzel for kakko and a 1st.
Does that make them beat Florida? Probably not but who knows all the games were close. And they were up 2-1.

Kreider, Mika, need to be moved at all costs. Kandre Miller needs to go to.

They need to do a lot . They’ll have cap space.
Just very disappointing.
