Staal was literally standing at the boards doing nothing. Wasn't even near another player

I know. I don't love Smith not tying up Landeskog, but he can't cover both Mackinnon and Landeskog.

Valliquette saying the coverage of the 2nd goals wasn't bad. Everybody drink the kool-aid.

That has to be getting full.

Recap blog up

Pronman from The Athletic did a write-up on one prospect from each organization. No clue if any of you subscribe, but in case you're all cheapskates:

NEW YORK RANGERS: Nils Lundkvist, D, Lulea-SHL

I’ve watched a game of Lundkvist in the SHL this season and he’s looked fine, but unspectacular to me. That’s his game, though; he’s not a very flashy player and tends to get his value from being efficient with his feet and vision. He’s not getting a ton of minutes, but from what I saw, he was the quarterback on Lulea’s top PP unit and is getting chances to produce offense.

One other Rangers tidbit I want to add is about their top prospect Vitali Kravtsov. His KHL team Traktor, which went to the final four last season in the KHL, looked awful to start the season. Related to that, Kravtsov’s KHL deal runs through the end of the season, and this KHL season will end on Feb. 22. This opens up the possibility of Kravtsov coming to North America this season, depending if he’s traded to a KHL contender in the next few weeks.
