This is where I disagree.. Think the forward group is excellent. Defense is average, but Klein has been absolute garbage. Hank lost that game last night.

Need to get that right side defender and hope someone takes Klein. Hank needs to play just a bit above average and they will be fine.

Better hope Shattenkirk chooses the Rangers as a UFA, also that means the Rangers are going to re-sign Clendening. Because Girardi will be bought out most likely. And thus the Rangers still end up with the problem of not having enough RH D-men.

Maybe they can sign Shatty and trade from their forward depth for another D man over the summer

Or trade forward depth now, and sign Shatty in the summer.

Good, this team has no internal will. Should have rebuilt it last year.

this is the youngest Rangers team in 30 years, what else would you want

Lundqvist wasn't tradeable and never will be, don't give me the Henrik to Dallas garbage

I just did an arm chair gm on cap friendly. Even with a Klein trade and Girardi buyout, they won't have enough cap space to re-sign all of the RFA's

I just feel like its so much harder to do it now cause so many teams still see themselves in the playoff hunt so price tags are a lot higher in trades. In the summer they can deal with all 30 teams.

You know me too well.

But you gotta admit it's annoying. Lundqvist can't come up with a save and when he does, the team just bangs in the rebound because the defensive structure is trash. IDK what the answer is.

Hank can't win at the Bell Center, not the end of the world.

More importantly, how is dragging a goalie 5 feet behind his net NOT goaltender interference Who the (frank) did they call at the league? Sather?

Only thing I can think was Price was out of the crease?? At least that was the leagues rational. I figured it would be reversed for incidental contact even if its outside the crease.

half his body was out of the crease, he just made a save on a breakaway. For every time a goalie barely gets touched and the goal is disallowed, this was pure comedy, drag the goalie behind his net and still allow the goal.

I'm not saying it shouldn't have been overturned, actually thought it would. Goalie interference, kicking the puck and suspensions, you just never know. Its always a toss up.

You knew 2 losses in a row, 2 bad losses was gonna bring out the crazy. I admit, I'm pissed, Hanks struggles has me frightened no doubt. But the typical overreaction is just a new kind of dumb. At 14 games over 500 NO Coach is getting fired.
