2026 cup champs. You read it here first.
Are you doing any content on the IIHF
I only watched like 8 Ranger games this year but in each and every single one of those games it seemed like Trocheck was the only guy that wanted to be there. If he isn't named captain this summer what are they even doing? And i hate the guys since i'm a Devils fan.
No
How did Kreider finish the season with only 8 assists in 68 games? Did he forget that forward passes are legal in hockey.
I think a lot of shesterkin’s numbers going down is because of the awful defense that was being played in front of him this season (and I mean team defense, not just the defensemen)
Drury is just so bad. They have a much better head coach now but putting lipstick on a pig won't help. Millions of cap space sucked up until the end of the decade. This is exactly what the Caps did after their SC win. Signed too many already old guys for way too much and way too long and didn't get past the first round for seven years.
Rangers fan here, the short and sweet is that we just need everyone to show up. Watching all their games you can see between presidents year and last year the drop off on players "gaf" level was unreal low. Hopefully with all the trade drama behind them, next year will be different. LGR Blueshirts United!
I can’t wait til they’re mid for a few years, hallelujah
i don't want to see anyone go on the offensive side. But the D-men need to get with the program.
Tank for McKenna… then sign McDavid in free agency next summer 🤣
I am kidding but i see this team as a wild card team next year… at best
Hell ,I thought the Rangers were making the playoffs even in early April.
What they need is steal coach from Habs or something and find culture of nurturing talent.
All I have to say is 1 Stanley Cup in 86 years. And 30 of those years there were only 6 teams in the league. Tampa has existed for 34 years and has 3 Stanley Cup wins. Vegas in 5 years won a Cup. The Ny Rangers are a cash cow for the owner MR. James Dolan. Till this man dies or retires this streak will continue. Ofcourse this team will make the playoffs next season as Dolan mandates that, so he can rack up ticket prices. If not, Drury will get fired.
Sadly I have lost all faith in this team. If Dolan fired Drury I would have felt different but after last season's collaspe and Drury getting an extension I knew than this team is done.
If they stay healthy, anything’s possible next season.
Before the Season started my Cup prediction was Vegas over the Rangers. LOL. Oops. If they do make the playoffs which team who made it this year won't? Idk. I don't see Ottawa or Montreal missing the playoffs next year. I don't see New Jersey missing the playoffs either. But the talent is there.
backline effectiveness?
Everything Shannon says is correct if the judgements are based on the numbers on the board. I am a Fox apologist, but his lack of a complete game got exposed this year. Trocheck was nowhere near the team MVP, he really struggled on ice for long stretches this year. Laf, Kreider, and Mika looked completely disinterested for long periods of time.
This team needs to learn how to skate before they think about contending for a cup, and that’s ignoring the issue of them trying to move past or fix their internal malaise.
everything the Rangers accomplished last season was undone this season and it begins & ends with Drury & ownership.
he allowed his personal vendetta's to get in the way of his job, completely destroyed the chemistry of the team & the players quit on him. full stop.
so, of course, ownership fired their 2nd coach in a row (who got them to a Conference Final) & rewarded Drury with an extension, guaranteeing that no one of talent will be suiting up to play for this team anytime soon.
they're stuck with the players that, not only are in decline, but also quit on the team back in December.
but, hey, at least Igor got his money. 🤷♂
Talk about a team with some great players and little chemistry. I think the Islanders might have a better shot of making the playoffs next year if things don't change drastically.
