To suggest the Panthers weren't vastly superior in almost every aspect of the game, is delusional.
The dude on the right has been delusional about it the whole series it’s wild
They aren't vastly superior. Panarin is the best offensive player on the ice and while he didnt score until the last game, the rest of his line was awesome. Igor is the best goalie on the ice and fox when healthy is the best defenseman on the ice... where the rangers fell short is a) they got nothing out of zibanejad. not only did they get nothing, he is usually a good 2 way player and he caused turnovers that directly led to goals. zibanejad gets eaten alive by any good center and it drags kreider, who has produced in the playoffs for 10+ years, down. b) The rangers got nothing from their defensemen. You can talk about trouba and fox playing hurt, but florida had 3 D better than the rangers best : Forsling, ekblat(spelling) and OEL. trouba was on the ice for what it seemed like every goal. and Miller turned it over a bunch of times and in game 4 in particular, it led to 2 goals.
@@jjcardillo the rangers "best" were completely shut down by the Panthers. You're not the best offensive layer on the ice if you are useless against the team you're playing. You essentially disagreed with me, then explained why I was right. 👍
@@jjcardillo On paper, no...but on the ice they are vastly superior. Total domination of play. Igor stops a sweep.
The panthers play a better scheme rangers have a better team
The Panthers also out-toughed the Rangers. Panarin doesn't want to be physical at all, Mika doesn't want to be physical either.
Don't forget Fox.
@@criddlexd I watched every game. What I noticed with Panarin and Mika is that unlike other players who hit back when they get hit, they never did this. If any of the Panthers were getting hit/bothered like Artemi, they would have given it right back.
@@criddlexd I can certainly agree with that assessment. I do think (and certainly hope) that Lafreniere will continue to improve next year - he really showed some good stuff in the. playoffs. I love Trochek and maybe with an improved Lafraniere who will demand more attention, Panarin will be ok!! Hopefully, a good big, skilled RW on the #1 line who is tough-minded would be enough to resurrect Mika and Kreids. Time may tell.
And what happened with Rempe? Not much......
@@criddlexd Refs had their pick game 1 lmaooo. Delusional.
Florida has a higher hockey IQ. Rangers made endless dumb passes and giveaways.
Florida plays a simpler game and has more physicality.
And lots of silly mistakes where they would just lose the puck for no reason or they would fail at receiving an easy pass. Their mental miscues were mind-boggling and I can’t help but wonder if it was because they were alway wondering where the next hit was coming from.
@JedWunderli welcome to NHL hockey 101.
That is exactly what happens in a long physical series when you are not built for such.
Even that novelty 73 got pounded into less relevance than he started with.
Rangers did that all season. It was a glaring issue during some games, and absolutely shredded other teams. They’ve played this way forever, I’m not sure what will change it.
What is this guy sal on? Didn't you say the Rangers were going to win the series? Ok, now admit you are wrong and please stop with your delusions. As a Rangers fan you have had a break from reality and it's embarrassing.
BT has good energy but absolutely clueless on hockey. Calling this ECF appearance pure luck is crazy. Ranger stars fumbled and FL was just tougher and better
Rangers are not built for the increased physicality and fewer penalty calls of the playoffs.
The game changes in April. Different rules (ie...more physicality is allowed). Great teams know this and have players that adjust. We were still trying to play highlight reel hockey, while Florida (and Carolina) were playing smash mouth hockey. We were lucky to even get out of round 2.
@@dumpybear8664 the only luck involved in getting us out of round 2 was having igor
sal said the rangers would win the series after game 5 loooool ha
The age old adage goes “the best goaltender” usually wins right? Shesterkin was clearly better than Bob and it didn’t matter. Sal is bat shit if he legit thinks the rangers would even win one game if the goalies were flipped. That’s how much better the panthers are than the rangers. It’s not close.
I specifically came here today to see what Sal had to say after his strong opinion that the Rangers will win game 6. 🤡
They lost in 6 games in the EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS, won the President’s Trophy and you guys think they should just totally blow it up?
Yes Floria was the better team. No they don’t have to blow it up. Just improve the roster a bit. They were close
You can't blame Drury for anything. The Rangers are in salary cap hell with their disgusting contracts from the past, along with the lack of cap raise due to the pandemic. It was financially impossible for him to make a huge splash at the deadline
Another weak performance for our top guys in the playoffs.
Sal, if you were a caller, you’d get cut off. Your fan hood is completely blinding you and making you sound like you don’t know anything about hockey.
Exactly right...
He knows nothing about everything…
Laviolette failure to adjust was a major part of this failure as well. Playing Brosinki and Cytl over Wheeler 6’5” and Rempe 6’8” made no sense. Florida was manhandling the lineups he ran out there. Especially in the elimination game all their grit was scratched. During game 1 Rempe needed to start a fracas at the end of the game to show they wouldn’t be pushed around. When Kreider, Zibanjed and Panarin disappeared because they were avoiding contact. He needed to play Goodrow, Cuylle and Rempe more. Instead he was just mixing up a variety of finesse guys which did nothing.
Wheelchair is washed up and Rempe can’t keep up with the play. This roster is terribly flawed. Drury is a clown.
@@timetowakeup6302 not terribly flawed , but flawed , needs more physical players
Florida was the better team just because you win the Presidents Trophy doesn’t mean you’re the better team. The Panthers were a top 3 team possibly the best team all year from start to finish obviously they have another round to play. The only reason why the Rangers were in the series was because of Igor cause this series would’ve been over in 4 or 5. The Rangers may have the better roster but the Panthers overall are a better team than the Rangers. That Canes series since game 5 should’ve let the Rags fans know that they were in trouble. The Panthers didn’t out work the Rangers they were just the better team overall this series. Once again Sal with awful takes as usual
That guy on the right has NO objectivity whatsoever...
This guy Sal is unlistenable and I am being kind. Take off your homer hat!!!! Goaltending aside, Florida is way better. If not for number 31 this series would've been a sweep. Florida was too big, fast, deep, plus unlike the Rangers, they never turn the puck over in their own zone.
This might be a hot take but how Florida played I think they are the best all around team in the last 5 years. When they play at there best I mean they suffocate defensively and they have 4 good lines that can score and I pretty great goaltender I could be wrong.
Panthers beat New York in every facet of the game but the rangers are a better team. Bald guy on the right is the worst type of delusional there is
Seeing as how you couldn't resist making it political.....
It was Winston Churchill who said, "If u r young and not liberal, u don't have a heart. If u r old and not conservative, u don't have a brain."

Now hockey:
The NYR are not, nor have they been, built for a Cup run since 2014.
To think they are better than they are is delusional.
Why?
Their two top stars, 93 and 10 have not been, nor will they ever be, nose over puck, crash the net players.
Cannot win when ur stars play the perimeter.
You guys finally say something that makes sense! Panarin has NEVER shown up when it counts, there is a few guys that just don’t have what it takes in the playoffs, but they have a great core so 4-5 moves, bring in guys that show up when it counts. Upgrade where they can. It needs to happen for them to take that next step.
100% agree. Something needs to change with the core three and the player with the worst contract of the three is Zibanejad who has 6 years left at $8.5m cap hit. Trade or buyout and acquire a 1C with size and toughness.
they have a lot of bad contracts. Zibanejad is not a #1 center, he gets destroyed by them. with Chytils injury, trocheck, while he did end up with a good year because he was playing with elite talent in Laf and panarin, is best served on the 3rd line. Trouba - takes the cake. he was on the ice for almost every goal allowed to florida.
We’re really talking about blowing up a team that lost in the Conference Finals to the team that is probably going to win the Stanley Cup? I get it was a painful loss but come on.
The only reason they are talking about it is because of the 2010s how we got to this same spot! Over and over and never broke thru history says we need changes but we don’t need to blow it up necessary but our details weren’t nearly as important and good as Florida.
@@anthonypastore8378 They need changes but they dont need to rebuild there a great team
You’re not wrong but the Goal is the Cup, if your core can not get it done it’s time to make changes. The Rangers are loaded with talent but they are soft
@@Grande79 absolutely! We are basically on the same page we are sick of watching these guys every year not show up and I think we need to retool more then rebuild but let’s make sure we lock up Igor with an extension now would be best in my opinion.
Sal is the 2024 version of the MadDog
The guy on the right is a BLIND homer. The Rangers got worked in nearly every game. Stars didn’t show at all. Panthers were the better team.
Hell no its the depth when teams target the top guys (which they have blame too). Trouba gotta be bought out. All UFAs gone. Im 50/50 on Kakko.
The Garden Party and run is now gone. Knicks keep guys due to injury the Rangers need tougher players. But for all. Never ever mention the Spring of 1994 comparisons ever again!!!! Announcers should never mention it.
@@jqight740 probably most annoying part of playoffs was that shit. Bcuz the most important thing that 94 had that we didnt was a real captain. That bum better be bought up
@@noiisserpmii you got that right. BTW I hope you aren’t annoyed. I grew up in the area which is North of New York City Westchester County and both the Rangers and Knicks practiced near by where I use to live there. I know this is hockey but when both make deep runs I just make the comparisons to the passion of the fans.
Now that is not a captin Trouba. Just bad with the penalties. This is going to be a real tough off season to bring this back again because you got to tweak this up with better grit players. Just toughening up Rempe is not enough. I won’t go into detail about the Knicks and opposite problem but they have suffered a long time had had it worse under the ownership of James Dolan who owns both the Rangers and Knicks.
@@noiisserpmii the 94 team was better all around. You had a real #1 center and arguably the best 2 way center in the league at the time 2 years from an MVP, you had a perennial Norris trophy guy in leetch. you had Zubov, who actually led them in points that year, and the rangers had the #1 PP. Graves was a grinder who scored 50 goals, and you had Kovalev who was the highest skilled player on the team as a rookie. That team was so stacked they traded away Mike Gartner at the deadline. Lastly, you had a bunch of ex edmonton and blackhawk guys who had either won the cup or been to the finals before rounding out the depth. It's apples and oranges to this years team.
THE CORE PLAYERS CHOKED....PERIOD!!!
I’m sick and disgusted . I’m just disgusted with my team . I really felt this year they could win the cup , and in the most important series to get to the finals , their stars just absolutely disappeared. Just disappeared . WTH!
The change starts with moving on from Trouba. You can't win a cup with an $8M third pair Dman, which is what he will be next season.
Sal = Cognitive dissonance
The Finals will tell you how far or how close they are to a championship. If the Panthers crush Edmonton then the Rangers aren't far away but if the Panthers get smacked around then they are very far away.
Florida should win 4 straight.
This is the problem with fans. They always based something on what the team did last. Every series is a different animal.
Jesus Christ overreaction Monday for 17 minutes? No thank you I’ll pass lmao
The youtube algorithm has brought me here and I feel this conversation depicts some interesting things that aren't discussed in other videos. In short, I'm a Ranger fan so I apologize in advance if my perspective comes off biased; even though I'm usually very critical of the Rangers to begin with.
I do have to agree that the 2014 (or whatever) Kings vs. Rangers cup series was tremendously different than this series between Panthers/Rangers. If I'm not mistaken, I think the Kings barely made the 8th seed (w/ traditional format) and caught fire with Quickie in the net and just outplayed every team. It was a landslide of a SC series. I wasn't upset over the loss, but it was a bummer more so for Henrik than anything.
One thing that I'm not seeing on these other "recap" videos is the fact that I think the Rangers lost their touch somewhere in that Carolina series, not exclusively when they played Florida. So much so, I was actually expecting them to lose that series entirely after Game 3. Despite that Kreider hat trick period which I'll call a fluke/miracle of a moment, Rangers beat themselves more than anything. It was as if they played shorthanded - blind passes up the boards in the defensive zone, losing 1 on 1 battles along the boards, and (most frustrating), dumping the puck in from the neutral zone and not winning those battles and just giving the opponent an easy break out, is what I've noticed consistently since halfway thru the Carolina series. I think the Rangers are a much better team than what they showed, but Florida is well polished engine designed to just conquer opponents and a deserving team for that matter.
Conclusively, the Panthers were the better team, no doubt about it. I would have preferred to watch a Ranger team that met expectations playing-wise and be beat by a better team, than what was displayed. The scoresheet really doesn't tell the story. Also, I hate Kaako. hehe.
I love when folks suggest players have to go like there’s a whole new roster of the perfect players waiting out in the parking lot ready to play. 😅
Mika,Kreider,Trouba,Kaako,Miller gotta go!!Bread maybe, but he was a lot better during the season.
They make a few good points, but these guys are mostly clueless.
I think Rangers fans are over-reacting wildly. NY had a great season. Top 4 in the league. They just got beat by a better team. Make a few small modifications and give it another shot next year. No reason to burn the barn down
Mika and two first rounders for Brady Tkachuk. End of story ;)
Hockey is hard to talk about cause teams win titles not 1 player...rangers didn't have the deeper better team...florida probably takes the finals to 7 last year as a 8th seed if they were a bit healthy at all and won the series if fully healthy
Laffy did not get enough ice time. Trouba must be moved---buyout half his contract and get rid of him!!
The big problem is cap space. You need to resign Igor but they can’t. Only logical way to free up cap is to trade Trouba and Panarin. $8m and $11m respectively. Panarin is elite but for $11m a year you better be able to make things happen on your own. Get rid of those 2 contracts, resign Igor, resign Lindgren & Schneider, and fill your holes in the top 3 lines.
One of the main reasons that Rangers did not play hard enough is conditioning.
@somatiful No! It's the lack of grit or meanness if you prefer. Kreider always puts on the breaks when he can throw big hits in the corners, Zibanedjad, forget about 'hit", Panarin hears steps when the going gets tough and turn over the puck to avoid being hit, Miller prefers using his stick than his shoulders to win puck battles despite his physique, Lindgren is a warrior but he's too small to make an impact in the corners, Fox needs to be protected because his game is not physical for obvious reasons, etc. etc.
I could go down the list and I would find only 2 or 3 players on the Rangers roster who are build for the playoffs: Trocheck, Goodrow and I would argue that Lafrenière seems to have what it takes as well.
I would have added Trouba in this mix but there are only so much spectacular body checks he can throw to make up for bad penalties, turn overs and bad decisions on the ice.
Gustaffson battled hard also in the corners and he deserves more praise for his effort. He has that agressive touch needed to win puck battles but he needs support from the rest of the crew.
That being said, what the Rangers need is not better conditioning. Nothing wrong with their physical condition. No team can spend 60% or more of the time defending and have the "conditioning" it takes to go the other way to attack.
That's why the average shift in hockey is around 50 seconds. I don't care what shape you're in, when you are chasing the game all the time you get tired.
No. What they need is "true grit" as a team.
What they need, if they can get it, is a player who will make the skill players taller and stronger while being himself talented enough.
What they need is someone like Brady Tkachuk. That type of player!
Time for a blockbuster trade of some sort!
I have the "solution".
You make a blockbuster trade with Ottawa to get Brady Tkachuk. In one or two years he will take the room and be the captain of the Rangers.
Now, all you have to do is 1) to give enough in return to convince Ottawa to make the deal and 2) convincing one or two of your stars to go to Ottawa.
The latter part is the toughest one in my humble opinion.
As much as it pains me to part from him (because he's very fun to watch when the going is not that tough in the regular season) I would consider trading Panarin for the pesky brother of Matthew. These guys have the playoff mindset and are a different brand of hockey players.
Panarin is great in the regular season but despite being a superstar it's his 3rd NHL team already. Let's make it four.
If the Bruins traded Thornton, Seguin and Kessel at some point- all superstars in their own right and 1st round draft picks- the Rangers could consider another splash like they did in 1975 when they got Esposito.
In my humble opinion, this is the time to think outside the box.
He won't say it in public but I guess that Brady Tkachuk would be very happy to go to a New-York team that would then become a real contender for years to come.
What the Rangers badly need is grit to make the skill players taller when things get tough. But grit with talent.
Think about it for a minute. With Gabe Perreault and Brendan Othman coming up and Lafrenière ready to take the next step you can spare one or two of your core players to make this happen.
I would argue that it can be done even if Panarin does not want to go to Ottawa. The Rangers have enough pieces to offer to make this deal if they want.
Time to think outside the box Mr Drury!
This is almost entirely on Peter Laviolette. The 1-3-1 "Lavilock" is a complete joke of a system. The HC demanded that his players fall back to the top of the circle before defending! All that did was give FL a clean breakout. Laviolette is coaching like it is 2004. The trap doesn't work in today's game, far too much speed and skill. The game has passed this guy by, he was a re-tread hire, typical of the NY Rangers. Drury's moves over the last 3 seasons have been an abject failure, he needs to go as well. This team has gotten softer after every trade deadline under Drury's stewardship. Everyone is pointing fingers at the players, and that has some validity, especially in the case of Trouba, but it all starts at the top.
Nothing is greater than a NY fan dismissing the team that beat them. To say Florida is not far better than the Rangers is wild. It only took him 10 years to admit the LA Kings were superior to the Rangers. Smh
The kings were superior but 3 of those games went to OT, and in all 3 the rangers had leads. There were also goalie interference calls that were blown that led to critical goals. Florida is a better team than the rangers, but not vastly better. Their style in particular is a very bad matchup for the rangers.
Drury completely failed at the deadline. We needed some playoff warriors that we lacked and he didn't get them.
Getting out worked doesn’t mean they wanted it more. Thats a terrible take. As a non biased fan of neither of these teams Florida was just a better and deeper team. That’s it. To say Florida wanted it more is lazy take.
Florida is far superior. The only reason this wasnt a sweep is because of NY's goalie.
this happened with the devils back in the day when they played their n-zone trap, defense first type style. its effective, it works in the playoffs. it frustrates the hell out of teams and its gonna be very interesting to see that style clash with edmonton who plays a completely opposite game. McDavid, Hyman, Draisaitl are all going to get worn down by the panthers style. its not that that rangers didnt work hard, it looks like that because of the system florida plays. they play a heavy game, they control the neutral zone and they collapse on the puck carrier in the d-zone. the rangers lost because they were not willing to change their play style and get dirty goals. he said it right when he said they are built like a west conference team, they are. they have so much talent that they get stuck in a mind set that every goal has to be pretty and tick tack toe style. it didnt take long for florida to figure out that Trocheck was practically the only one who was willing to get his hands dirty, so they plugged that hole and the rest took care of itself. another huge mistake, in my opinion, was putting in Chytil. he hadnt played all year, there is no way he is going to be able to catch up at this point, it has nothing to do with how good he is or how in shape he is. hockey is just too fast of a game to come back after all that time at this point of the season. and wheeler.......why? ill probably catch shit for this but i honestly believe they would of had a better chance if they plugged some spots with the wolf pack players they called up. those guys would have given their heart and soul in those games to make a name for themselves. one more thing, if you're gonna play Rempe, than have him do something that to get the team going. skating around like Frankenstein for 2-3 mins per game does nothing.
Hey you screaming smart-ie bold -ie in the glasses .You know what your rags didn’t do enough in your blind eyes ,because panthers simply didn’t let them!With their style they do this to every team ,so you can keep whining at your players as you want .Nothing will change it that Florida is much better team .Btw I predicted about 3 weeks ago Stanley cup final Panthers -Oilers ,here we go :)..who is the expert ☝🏻💋😄
As a New York ranger fan make changes get rid of the captain Kappo and Miller they all had time too show us something not happening
Last 3 years have taught us that the top 4 guys just can't bring it home. Keep panarin and trochek but we gotta trade kreider and Mika. Take that money and go after Jake guentzel and a nasty center.
When your example is from 2014 you know you have no idea what you are talking about. The Panthers have a loaded roster
The oilers will win the cup with the guy the rangers should have hired.
Panthers will beat the oilers in six games maybe five
They just went to the eastern conference finals y’all acting like they had a bad season
I dont think it was for lack of trying... they just didnt have it vs florida. They can't win those battles for 3 full periods a night. A period here amd there maybe 2
They couldnt hold up 60 minutes vs florida
Sal is incorrect. The panthers are a lot better because of their style.
Florida is the best team in the league!!! Carolina, with a slightly better goalie would be number 2. There is no shame in losing to Florida. We knew it would be an uphill battle. They were all close games (score wise).
Yes and we need a true number 1 goalie
The power play went into hiding
Zibanijed, Kreider...way too soft. Zibanijed avoided the puck to avoid hits...embarrassing. Kreider plays like he weighs 180 lbs. Gustufson, Miller, Trouba horrible on the boards and sloppy with the puck. Kakko???
The entire team rested on their regular season laurels...and got routed like Custer!!!
Panarin, Kreider, Zibanejad and Trouba are all north of 30 Tick, tick, tick.......
Wasn’t Tony Amonte that old wen he was traded in the cup yr?
Krieder is biggest softie player in the NHL 6'3" ..225 lbs and rarely hits...its like hes too humble to show off this aspect of the game...Miller is even worse, he works part time as a forest ranger going around poking (with his hockey stick) smoldering firewood /coals (due to his long reach) in case it might catch fire.
hey Sal ..do you still think the rangers are going to win? This is why they only win a Cup once in every 40 years...
We are not winning anything with Zibanejad, Trouba and the awful contracts they have. Therein lies the major problem.
I think you meant the 86 celtics in 85 lakers beat them. Hello from Brazil
Nyr need to turn matt Rempe into a Defensmen
The thought of "blowing up" a team that just won the presidents trophy is absurd. They just need to be smart. They gotta figure out all the player contracts first, and then find a way to add a few more gritty, tenacious type players to the roster for a deeper Cup run.
That's really all they lacked this playoff, when you break it down. If they weren't pushed around in the ECF, our guys wouldn't have spent so much time defending, and our top points guys and power play would've had more opportunities to make a difference.
Keep it together, but make the necessary playoff tweaks.
LFGR.
Why do people have no patience? Why arent people content will competitive teams?
I mean that’s what happens though when you start playing against the best teams in the league
Still to Knicks Basketbsll BT!
How is this guy not embarrassed with how much of a clown he’s making himself look.
Kreider has always been in an individual player. Not a team player. I've never valued him as many others do. Mika refuses to get dirty. the mindset is wrong. Going for Kane the way they were was ridiculous. They need size - not more speed.
Now that glen Sather has appeared to have ended his cancer spreading reign on Broadway, maybe Drury can succeed without the dark-cloud that is Glen Sather overhead. It cannot be under-stated how damaging, pathetic and myopic Glen Sather's tenure in NY has been for nearly quarter of a century.
Rangers need tougher players surround the scorers keep Krieder
Do whatever it takes to bring Brady on board
Why do sal overreact to every lose in every sport. When a team’s lose he acts like the world ending but when a team winning he says they a great team
Finding a way to trade for Brady Tkachuk would help Immensely. Also adding Pat Maroon and/or Corey Perry as UFA's are players who have had great playoff success . Tyler Johnson , Ondrej Palat are examples. A true 1RW. It was embarrassing in an elimination Game that Our 1RW was a converted 3rd line Center who never plays right wing. Was Blake wheeler unhealthy again ? here's a Man with tremendous playoff experience & success as a captain.Does all the dirty work in the corners and down low and during the season had excellent chemistry with Zibanajad & Kreider. Why Laviolette stuck with Roslovic for so long was a Mystery . Or even throwing Chytil up there inste4ad of in the middle of 3rd Line so You have 3 balanced Lines . Trading Zibanajad or planarian will be difficult to say the least . This narrative of under performance by the skill players , in Playoffs is three years old Now.l They Must solve a Right wing for first line . I would not trade Kakko either . To Me the traceable contracts are Chytil, Tuba Kreider & Goodrow . I dont see them trading Kreider and good Luck finding a team who will take on Tr4ouba's bloated contract .
The next captain should be Vincent Trocheck
Perhaps the emergence of Brennan Othmann on Varsity squad next year on entry level contract can fill the void on Zibanajad line and bring energy & tenacity . I know He's ready for the next step and another former #1 Pick, whose game they compare to Matthew Tkachuk would be great and great for navigating salary cap too. I do feel within reason I would thrown the kitchen sink at Ottawa to rescue Brady Tkachuk form the Senators would be closest to a perfect fit on top six that Rangers desperately Need !!
Ranger Fan for Life !!!
sorry about the Auto fill spelling but Im sure You get the picture !
They couldn't push more.. They Rangers were Sheep ,being hunted by Wolves
It is amazing to me hiw you guys even are talking about this. So little knowledge, or maybe its simply ignorance, of understanding Hockey. You wanted Drury to do more at deadline, NOT POSSIBLE. Cap space boys. This team can win. They need a right winger and a strong defenseman. Luck is such a huge part as well, and Florida had many luck bounces. The core is strong and I totally disagree with most of what you say here. What they simlly need is a change in Attitude. Brian Boyle said it best.....it is simply an Attitude that Florida has, they Rangers can, and need to, adapt to. Enough said.
This rangers team with panarin and mika reminds me of Gardner and amonte from the 94 rangers all finesse players but Keenan knew damn well he couldn't win with those guys on his team. That's why they got rid of em and put more toughness and grit on those rangers. Same thing applies to these rangers panarin and mika these dudes are not tough enough for the playoffs and not built for the grind. Total no shows especially panarin. Hot shot during the regular season 49 goals vanishes in the playoffs barely takes any shots no confidence no tenacity same with mika I'm starting to think he's pretty soft and overrated. Rangers gotta rid of these guys amd grab someone like tchachuck or something.
over reaction ...like every other team that gets that far and loses they need to make some changes yes but not "blowing it up"...Zib Panarin Trouba aren't going anywhere sorry.Buchnevich should have been the deadline target to fix that 3rd wheel on the top line.Roz was clearly not the answer
Oilers Fan...wink wink nudge nudge
Stop whining.
Guys teams like Panthers dont win every year…tampa wasnt that. Vegas wasnt that.
And the rangers do? 😂😂😂
@@grock5209 did i say that? I said the style they are talking about isnt the winning formula everytime.
