I was at the Devils - Predators game last night and then watched the Oilers - Bruins game earlier today. Its freaking so obvious that Bruins, Devils and Predators play a very good system and hence have made POs in the last few years. These systems live and die on forwards playing their positions in the D zone and defensemen consistently clearing the puck - not even one unsuccessful cleared attempt. Oilers played exactly like Islanders, very poor job by the forwards playing D.

This team will not win anything without a respectable and proven coach, period. Our coaches in the last 20 years were a laughing stock of the league.

I dont blame Bailey and AMAC for playing inconsistently, I blame Capuano for giving them ice time.

Either has Boyle until he finally got proper coaching....
Fact is Bailey has not been developed properly, rushed into situations, and poorly coached. Besides Bailey, there's list of players that fall under that category

i agree. he was rushed into it and i think okposo was too which is why his development was stunted a little bit. kind of crazy he found his game and turned it on this well.

nino is a great example of a ruined prospect too. that's why i think you guys are when some of you say "why not play reinhart pulock lee strome and all the other rookies over the veterans".

Bailey has a ton of talent, problem is the kid might have lost his confidence with this coaching staff. Maybe or most likely he can build back his confidence with another professional coach or change of scenery.... He's still young!!!

he tries to be too pretty. he had a few glorious chances in the past 2 rangers games to shoot but tries to deke and do like a between the leg backhand pass across the slot.

Enough with the Josh Bailey was rushed... so now he is a bad player...lol.

The kid is now 24 yrs old... he just isn't competing hard.

People on here act like Bailey was the first overall pick...lol. (not all)

Lots of first rounders don't pan out.

Bold prediction by the duck rangers will go on a5 game losing streak with step not registering a point. The ranger blog will be complaining about sather and talk about blowing it up only to have dreams of the cup a week later when they go on a 3 game win streak. Here comes the duck is a dbag hate...

Bailey just doesn't have the aggression to be a good player.
He doesn't want to score or win he just wants to player, know what I mean?

Eh...imo, his problem is he thinks too much, and over-thinking paralyzes him.
