This still means that Sheary is most likely on top line or line 2. Embarrassing
Fire Drury
But what happens if Gabe and Brennan dont score hat tricks? Back to AHL?
They ain't making moves they keep rotating the same players around. Until they make trades it's going to be the same old rangers
It’s not just Drury. Sully needs to be accountable. The 5 forward PP scheme is a disaster.
Making moves is as wishy washy ,failure worthy ,as "Getting Looks ) is !!! just saying !
The main problem with the Rangers is ownership and management. Dolan is a jack ass. Drury / DREARY is a failure and Sullivan never should have been hired. Pete DeBoer was and is available and should have been hired. He has been successful everywhere he has coached. 4 different teams and they all advanced to the semi finals and 2 made it to the finals. Sullivan inherited a quality team which won 2 cups in his first 2 seasons and has been a bust ever since. Sullivan hasn't made the playoffs in his last 3 seasons with Crosby, Malkin, Letang, Guentzel and Karlsson.
good move, too bad it took management this long to figure it out
im on the other side of Sheary … I dont mind him being in the lineup, has a good motor and puts the effort in every night.. unlike some on this team. he just needs to be bottom 6
Problem is they will put Pereaut with Sheary. Ugg
Agree put Gabe on pp1 can't be worse..and Morrow on pp1 too
Its now a complete waste of money and time to see this lifeless team.
If you want to be "a fast in your face FU type of team",…call up Chmelar, Roobroek, and Mackay…sit those who don't care about winning…play hard with an edge. Stop the slow dancing doggie paddling scrums – drop the gloves and exact harsh retribution
Right now NOBODY is afraid to play the Rangers…in fact, bad teams look forward to coming here.
Could we possibly do any worse than the Tampa Bay, Chicago, Ducks or Vancouver 'games'?
Remember when Raddysh was leading the team in goals and Sully decided to drop him to 4th line? Knew we were in big trouble then.
Play them can’t be any worse
Absolutely incredible that Sheary still hasn't been sent down. He played in the top 6 constantly after Trochecks injury and did nothing. He gets put on the top line and does basically nothing. He is the softest most worthless player this team has seen since Darrol Powe. Not surpising though considering who the coach is. Only a moron like Sully would have 3 subs/ahlers (Sheary, Brod, & Raddysh) all in the lineup
Time to give sykora a look
I’ve had to sit through a lost season with the Giants. Now it’s close to being a lost season with Rangers. Give these young guys a chance. Play them every night for the next month or two and see what they can do. It can’t be any worse than what’s happening on the ice right now.
Now we can lose 5-1 instead of 3-0
What about this new kid line?
Othmann – Laba – Perreault
Maybe get Berard a little scoring touch. I absolutely don’t like sending him down, but when you’re losing like we are, you need to try something other than a guy with a goose egg. I too have liked what I’ve seen from Chmelar. Maybe I’m in the minority, but I’d take Chmelar over Rempe in terms of skill.
I’d like to see something along these lines
Miller Trocheck Perrault
Panarin Zibanejad Laf
Cuylle Laba Berard
Othmann Carrick Brodzinski/Raddysh
Could jumble those top 6(even Cuylle can swing top 6 role) and I know Berard is struggling but I still like his speed. Maybe insert Rempe when needed, I just don’t think he’s effective enough for our lack of scoring.
Also, keep in mind people, our assets have all depreciated heavily. Therefore Drury will want more than he can get for anyone. I wouldn’t give up a first round draft pick for any of our forwards besides Panarin for a playoff run if I’m other teams. Laf at the price tag is unfortunately at the moment too costly for teams to give up what he “should be” worth. Not to mention we have a somewhat poor track record of drafting/developing so how good do picks do us at this point. Igor is head and shoulders above anyone in terms of quality draft pick by the rangers since like 2014/15. Our next best pick since then could arguably be Schneider or Cuylle, in terms of value/draft position. We have struggled immensely in that department.
Great news. lol Making "moves". lol
The only move I want to see is to get rid of Drury, he has no clue.
Sullivan has to stop giving Sheary privileges and let Gabe and Otter play
Mika… Ballerina Laffy …. Othman (throw away line)
Pan… Miller… Troubling (eh)
Cullye…Laba… Perrault (yah)
Yeah… no B/S…no bleeping scoring!!
Oh ok, Gabe. I was expecting Drury to trade another one of our best remaining pieces for two mediocre bodies.
JT captain wrong bring on Vinney/.
Deck chairs on the titanic
Until Perreault shows he's willing to jump into deep end of the pool we'll never if he's a true NHL player or if he was just a passenger on the 'bus' driven by Will Smith & Cutter Gauthier at Boston College. This is probably Othmann's last shot at proving he's not a 1st round bust. Berard should have stayed with the Rangers. Raddysh should have been waived.
They have nothing to lose. Throw some responsibility and confidence in the minor leaguers! Can we find a diamond in the cesspool of a season.
Why send Berard down? Oh, right, because Drury the Clown won't dump Sheary or Raddysh.
Drury is BS. He'll give the kids 3-4 games and send them back down. The preseason was great when the kids were hungry to score. Shot a lot of times. Scored often. Hoping for the best from my most favorite team.
I agree both GP & BO should NOT be on the 4th line! Give them opportunity!
Messier for head coach or GM.
This team is toast. The window has closed. They have plenty of talent but can’t score.
Fire sale at the trade deadline. Scrap it.
Rebuild.
These two will accomplish nothing
Nothing matters until Drury is fired
Not players are wrong ,they are shows Drury is not GM
Not lot people know when Drury and Gomez was trade to nyr Jagr and all group was fired biggest mistake and same now Drury is looser
