[MERCOGLIANO] Shooting the puck was a big theme today. GG: “The biggest thing I found in two games is people didn’t want to shoot the puck. They wanted to keep passing it and keep passing it. You’ve got to put some pucks to the net, and then things open up. We didn’t do that enough.”

gallant reading game threads lol
I felt we’ve been saying this all year
“Ssshhhhoooooott!!!” -Random fan in the nosebleed seats
I’ve been getting 2015 pp vibes
Yeppppp that East-West shit that Panarin tries gets picked off 90% of the time. Absolutely stupid.
I’ve always wanted to experiment for one game as a coach a one pass policy. You get one pass once you enter the zone and then you have to shoot it.
Next theme: hitting the net
Its been a common theme for years. This team needs a healthy dose of selfish fucking hockey when they get an open lane to the net instead of making that extra pass.
Only the past 2 games that’s been the problem…?
Yes please! Gallant saying what we’ve all wanted for so long!
GG putting that vaunted analytics team through its paces, getting that real data.
GG follows our subreddit, confirmed
Literally been saying it all season, I doubt it’s going to change now. We have maybe two guys who are shoot first. The fact that shooting the puck is something they have to work on is unsettling.
Are we sure GG actually said this ? That doesn’t sound right ……./s
Just now, after almost an entire season is gallant coming to this conclusion….better late than never ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I was screaming.at the TV shoot thenpuck
That’s been a theme with the Rangers since the rebuild. Need more frank vatranos on the team. Let it rip.
If he wants them to shoot first why did he remove by far our best PP goal scorer who bombs it constantly from the outside
GG needs to bring in some consultants:
