The dick sucking after Stamkos 2nd goal made me want to bash my head against the wall. Flukiest shit and non stop gargling on his cock. So annoying
Someone needs to teach Panarin to stop fondling the puck 100% of the time he touches it and shoot it. I counted at least 3-4 times when he could’ve hit the goalies pads for a great rebound or shot on net and he jerked it off and passed. He’s awesome with the puck but this will make him that much better.
Guys, that was a good goal. The puck was already pas He needs someone else on his line that will just shoot. He should’ve been playing with Mika and Kreider from the moment the puck dropped tonight. Your criticism is very fair though.
I texted my brother, a Rangers fan, during the game that Panarin in no Messier (not that many are or can be). At some point as team leader you have to take it on yourself, win or lose. but, ultimately, this game and series was more about what the Lightning can do when they are at their best, not a referendum on the Rangers who played them well.
for all the "promise" of kaako and alexis ... such high picks... they are currently just kinda avg nhl players. we need above average/star play from them eventually... am not all down on them... just that that is where they are right now.. imo great season
Really bummed how it all ended but also proud this team grew up and did some amazing things in the playoffs. So much young talent and youth continuing to develop, you gotta hope that this team can blossom into a contender again. Love the effort Igor gave, saved us so many times. Team was so gassed and sloppy the past few games. Really curious what the deal with benching Kakko was...makes no sense he isn't playing and Strome did for a few minutes. Strome's lack of defensive effort led to Stamkos goal early on.
The way Gallant is refusing to answer questions is starting to make me wonder if Kakko pulled a DeAngelo?
Doesn't seem like the type of guy that would do that. Make racist remarks and punch the backup goalie? Not sure we'll ever see that in a Rangers locker room again. Gallant is just a fucking moron.
Good season, fellas. Be proud. Tough ending last night. Felt bad for Igor, as that 2nd goal was just bad luck. Right after they tied it too. The future is definitely bright for the Rangers.
This team went as well as the kid line allowed it too. At times that was more than enough and at others it wasn't. Next season will be about whether Lafreniere and Chytil are ready to build on this season. Kakko is going to be a hard sell to the team. Lots of missed opportunities this year. I think the logical thing to do with him is put him on the 4th line and let him try to fight his way upwards.
NAH. AVG. somettimes good, sometimes making no difference at all. again. not DOWN on these high picks. still hopeful. but unless they become consistently above avg players they;re just among a long long list of draft pick busts (all sports all teams)
Off-season keepers == Copp, Blais, Kakko, Rooney and Motte. Have to let Strome go and sign somewhere else.
We have to keep Copp for sure. He was very effective for us, can play anywhere along the front line and cost a 1st round draft pick. I expect him to be a Ranger for years.
I would like to keep Copp. I like Vatrano and Motte, but I see no reason why you can't pick up the same quality of player at next year's trade deadline. I would like to get rid of Strome, Trouba, and Kakko. I'd like this team to finally add some real depth at center, something they have not had in almost 30 years.
A Good Read about the pending free agents and their possible future: https://nypost.com/2022/06/12/what-rangers-may-do-with-all-of-their-impending-free-agents/
Copp, Strome, and Vatrano are going to be gone. Strome and Vatrano for sure. Frank is just a pair of quick hands -- You can find another Vatrano at the deadline. Copp if the value is right, will be back, but not for 5.5M AAV like some people think he's going to get. Of all the trade deadline pieces they got, Motte should be the one they resign. He adds great value to the PK and is a fantastic defensive forward on a 4th line. He gets after it on the forecheck. The Rangers are going to take a big swing at a Malkin or a Bergeron on a 1 year 7.5M deal to go for it before they can really remake this roster when Trouba and Kreider's NMCs open up. Those guys won't take a 1 year deal. My guess is Kakko gets moved in a package for Pierre Luc-Dubois on Winnipeg. Kreider -- Mika -- Lafreniere Panarin -- Dubois -- Kravtsov Blais -- Chytil -- Goodrow Motte -- Brodzinski (or Rooney) -- Reaves
