Let’s go Rangers. Beautiful game. That defense was phenomenal. Wow. Just wow. Panarin and Lafreniere scoring after the playoff performances. Good for them. Let’s go Rangers. Igor also Should have had a shutout. Dang
i was really unsure of what to make of this ranger team as the preseason looked concerning...but this opening game was a much different story. A more than welcome and pleasant surprise. i was one of the ones who didn't like that Gallant had been fired and i wasn't excited for Laviolette. I hope this means i was too hasty in my judgment and that i was wrong.
Laffy needed this start. Should boost confidence. I like him with panarin and chytil. It’ll help him get more points. A player doesn’t necessarily need to be getting a lot of points to be contributing, but it will help keep the haters quiet.
Vally needs to be a coach at some point in his career. He sees everything on the ice and knows his strategies. He would have done better than Gallant last year lol
Rangers come palyoffs will be an absolute JAUGGGERNUT!!!! strength of this team goaltending and defense this team will win games 2-0 will feel like a 6-0 shutout because the other team will have very tough time generating offense saw a glimspe of it in the final preseason game and in this game 2nd period with less than 10 min to play Buffalo had 2 shots on goal.
This type of game style will not be sustainable for the Rangers. They played it like a playoff game. Probably some extra motivation and energy being the home opener. Players were limping back to the bench left and right. The game was a lot closer than it looked on paper. Buffalo hit three posts I believe, and Panarin hit a post that ended up going in. Go Rangers but this Defensive style of die hard shot blocking will get you in the injury hole real quick.

That's the only word I can come up with as well. Wow...just WOW!!!
As a Sabres fan that was also my reaction 9 rows from the ice. Remarkable defense.
Vali, you are still one of the most amazing analysts in the NHL.
100% Were lucky to have him on MSG
As a Giants/Yankees/ Rangers fan, thank God it's Hockey Season!!!
Amen!
Ditto!
Laf should get an assist for Breads goal, he caused the turnover.
Lafreniere hustling! That's the type of play you want to see from your 1st round draft pick!
Vally really ragging on Gallant there haha
Great defensive structure, winning battles along the boards and face-offs. Haven't seen this in a long time.
The MSG broadcast team is so elite. We're incredibly lucky as fans.
The Rangers displayed physical hockey. Good defense and, the offense was on spot.....Keep that focus.....😮😮😮😮😊
Complete game win!!! The new coach is making a big impact already.

As usual, the Rangers win the Stanley Cup in October. Let's see how it goes over the next six-seven months, hopefully eight.
It's one game, but a very good game.
Yes don’t forget, you were playing Buffalo, they are terrible
doesn't it look like Laf should have gotten a primary assist off the Panarin goal?
