Serious question, what the (frank) is wrong with Torts? Like he seems to be a good guy when he's doing charity work and whatnot, and even the way he treats the press is endearing in an old curmudgeony kind of way. But then he treats his team overall and individual players like a psychotic (frank) under the guise of what.. being a hardass old school coach? How is scratching your new captain down the stretch going to help your team? How is scratching one of your best young players on and off all season (Frost) who has more than earned his spot making the team better? It's so bizarre.

Couturier has been kinda bad lately. The Frost situation will never make sense.

probably the reason he gets fired a lot because he always has a competitive team no matter how poopty they are on paper.

I mean he called Hagelin stupid in 2013 as the Rangers were getting beat by the Bruins. So yeah, I would say so. Also it seems like 2004 kinda didn't like him. As they celebrated With Cup, and left Trots out.

The Metro should be disbanded if the Cap get into the playoffs with a -20 to -30 goal differential.

People hyping them up, completely forgetting that they were riding shooting percentages and got exposed as frauds in the playoffs.

(Seriously, I HATE the Devils and the way they've constructed their roster. It's a joke.)

I feel like Winnipeg always give the rangers fits because of their transition game. They are very quick off the rush.

Kyle Connor especially I feel like always kills the Rangers.

Which may explain why Lavy is going with the same lineup as much as anything for tonight. The 3rd scoring two goals the last time and the hours that line spent in the offensive zone explains it well too.

Even half way through the season it was still “don’t worry they will figure it out and be at the top of the division.” And then this summer they will be picked to win the metro again

He used the word "dumbness" to describe him. Or was that someone else?

They'll get a goalie and Hamilton will be healthy and they will be the darlings again.

You can say the same about the Islanders and the amount of loser points they have that are keeping them in contention.

Either way, he didn't know how to use a team that wasn't specifically built for him.

You can love or hate what hes doing, but a Flyers team that was expected to finish as one of the worst in the East might actually make the playoffs.

Yes he’s been very bad all season and I’m not as worried about his absence as I would be about any other defenseman in our lineup (trouba included). Maybe he’s just got an underlying injury that’s been nagging at him and this time off will help him recover. Who knows
