Great Video. As you said in the video, Mollie, it's that all of the opposing teams, after they get past The Regular Season, are playing Mika & Artemi tight, so, The Rangers are going to have to mix up the lines, especially, by putting Hard Hitters & Puck Handlers in with these guys. Let me know what you think
It's about time Mika and Kreider get blamed for no right wing working there. I cant imagine coming to the bench every shift and having my line mates talk to each other incessantly and ignore me. Worst job in hockey.
If it was possible I say Trade them both. They are the core and we will never win with the current core we have they do not have what it takes to get it done
@@shawnstadtler9865 Panarin has one year left after this upcoming, Mika has a NTC and Kreider has a limited. That being said, moving those players or not resigning Panarin is not a major rebuild as you say. The players I mentioned are the new core. If THEY were being moved I’d agree but they are not.
I really like Molly but can someone tell her to learn to stop growling at times when she speaks. If she's going to keep doing these podcast she really needs to listen to herself and see how much she does it
I really like Molly. That said the reason the giggles are upsetting is because it makes it seem like she is apologizing for her opinion. A man would never do that. As a woman I’d like to see her speak more confidently while keeping her amazing and infectious enthusiasm.
I think that Ryan Lindgren is A Good Player, but, I don't think that his numbers warrant him getting too much. Also, even though it's unfortunate, he's a player that gets injured a lot. Let me know what you think
Lets not act like the locker room is going to be dramatically effected if Trouba is gone. A: they are professionals and understand its a business. B: Game recognizes game and the players are not blind to Trouba's terrible play and constant unnecessary penalties especially in the playoffs. I'm sure they will be fine if he is replaced and that $ is used for a baller.
Overly exaggerated fan & social media bashing: of Trouba's defensive game. It's become absurd. Trouba was not on the ice for the back breaking goals against, in Games 5 & 6, against the Panthers. Trouba was on the ice for one goal against, in Games 5 & 6. Evaluate how those back breaking goals were scored, and who was on the ice. Of course, while everyone obsessively ignores the dozens upon dozens of strong, smart defensive plays Trouba makes every game: to break up and snuff out dangerous, high percentage scoring opportunities. Not to mention the dozens of vital blocked shots, from Trouba; which saves their asses. And if you actually believe Trouba is not a highly respected Captain and defenseman, in that locker room ( and around the league), you're delusional. Guy plays on a bad ankle, and the fanbase screams he's done and he sucks. Fox stinks up the place every night, in his own zone...even without an injured knee: crickets.....from the fanbase.
@@tbonet859 alright buddy if Trouba is so good why did they just try getting rid of him and why was he moved to the third line in the playoffs. Rangers could have went up 3-1 in the series but he was selfish and WAY out of position on the PK bc he wanted to hit a guy. Everytime there is a bad defensive break down I'm staring at Trouba 2ft away. Sorry but he is the problem and has been bailed out by Igor countless times.
I would make the argument that now that Glen Sather has handed in his keys to the building that they can officially rid themselves of his stench both literally and figuratively. His reign in NY for nearly 25 years has been an abject, total and complete failure from nearly any metric. Any educated season ticket holder could have amassed a record similar to Sather's if not exceeding it. One finals appearance in 24 years. One! Sather proved to be a one-trick pony and further demonstrated that without the shoulders of Gretzky and Messier on which to ride he was and is a below average executive with no ideas, nothing r=to offer and had no idea how to build a franchise outside of the one he built in 1980. Now that the tumor has been lanced, hopefully the body can recover. And Sather was a tumor on the organization. Maybe Mika & Kreider should get with the realization that despite the amount of time they've played together, they've won nothing. So who cares? If it were up to me, I would either move one or both of them or separate them and allow them to adjust to new lines. Keeping them together has not worked.
If you really think about it hard, the Rangers have drafted ONE decent forward (who has stayed) in the last 25 years: Kreider. To me the jury is still out on Lafreniere. He is still not producing any where near worthy of his pick. And I am by no means a Kreider fan. I think he is a below average player, with a terrible wrist shot, and who is extremely opportunistic. but to be fair he does put up numbers and recently started killing penalties (shocker there). And then think about ALL THE MISSES with the forwards who they drafted or the ones like JT Miller who they gave up on or traded away. It is absolutely mind boggling. And as a result the roster is a revolving door of retreads and overpays (moldy man). Bottom line-if you cannot draft, develop, and retain good forwards you will NOT win a Stanley Cup.
@@timothyehrler4325 Their track record with Dmen is terrible as well. Other than Marc Staal the Rangers have not drafted and developed an NHL Dman since what seems like Brian Leetch. Dan Girardi was undrafted, McDonagh was acquired via trade. Lindgren, Trouba, Fox all through trade. K'Andre Miller is the only dman in the top 4 right now who was drafted and he isn't even a natural defensemen which is not difficult to tell. I'm waiting to see just how they will blow it with Schneider. Also can't forget giving Zubov and Norstrom away for aging rejects.
Molly saying that the teams mindset she thinks is one of their best attributes shows how little she knows about this team and hockey it’s fairly well known the rangers are a very weak mental team and they kinda choke in big moments
You’re fucking high! They play the same if they are up or down and no matter what they are just too soft in the playoffs and they need some more scoring and another good puck moving defenseman
Mollie is insufferable with the whole rangers gotta realize lindgren is foxs partner… like yea so what if fox was playing with any other of the lefties on the team they would be a better pair what is up with people thinking lindgren is like this huge important piece for this team and fox lindgren had nothing to do with fox winning the Norris and fox woulda probably won 2 more if lindgren knew how to do anything besides block shots
Just atrocious coverage.. it's no wonder Drury has gotten away with doing such an awful job. We've got a GM throwing draft picks away like pennies in a wishing well, building some sort of fantasy roster.
if Drury was able to move Trouba we would most likely have Stamkos or Marchessault on the roster now..
Mollie is so beautiful,glowing..😍
Mollie is the best!

Send that heat over here to the UK. It's been more like autumn than summer lately. 🇬🇧☔

Kreider and Mika have their own secret language? Trade one of those two soft clowns and let them converse long distance.
If it was possible I say Trade them both. They are the core and we will never win with the current core we have they do not have what it takes to get it done
There will be a major rebuild after this season
Definitely not, look at the players signed, and Shesty and Laf will resign. Bad call
@@jnyfive5 Look back at my comment at the end of this season.
@@shawnstadtler9865 sure. It will be fun. Should we expect Shesty and Fox and Miller and Lafreniere and everyone to be traded or just everyone else?
@@jnyfive5 If this team doesn't do well this year it's over for the Kreider-Mika-Panarin core. The players you named will stay.

Kakko was on a line with Nick Bonino most of the year lol
A playmaker that wins board battles is what Chris and Mika need
I think drury screwed that trade of trouba he does not have sathers hand to hold anymore

That was three years ago.

Learn the game. You have tunnel vision.

Drury has proven to be a Sather acolyte time and time again. Something like 25 draft picks traded in 3 years. Atrocious.
If you really think about it hard, the Rangers have drafted ONE decent forward (who has stayed) in the last 25 years: Kreider. To me the jury is still out on Lafreniere. He is still not producing any where near worthy of his pick.

Its incredible isn't it? The know-nothings they try to pass off as quality analysts and commentators.
You’re fucking high! They play the same if they are up or down and no matter what they are just too soft in the playoffs and they need some more scoring and another good puck moving defenseman
Thanks Islander fan
Kreider can’t score if Mika gets pushed around like a squirrel, Mika is the playmaker, you know, the CENTER.
Watch us win this year, lolololol
Mollie is insufferable with the whole rangers gotta realize lindgren is foxs partner… like yea so what if fox was playing with any other of the lefties on the team they would be a better pair what is up with people thinking lindgren is like this huge important piece for this team and fox lindgren had nothing to do with fox winning the Norris and fox woulda probably won 2 more if lindgren knew how to do anything besides block shots
Trade Mollie Walker for a bag of pucks!
Mika and Kreider are soft AF. Break em up already
👍👍 friend
Try Kakko with them and let him figure it out. Like Alexis was allowed to adjust to playing right wing. Kaapo has the tenacity on the puck.
Just atrocious coverage.. it's no wonder Drury has gotten away with doing such an awful job. We've got a GM throwing draft picks away like pennies in a wishing well, building some sort of fantasy roster.
