Matt Zerella posted:https://twitter.com/CavanaghSju/status/1599810667451539470 I don't see anything happening to Drury people are speculating Gallant is on the hot seat because he hasn't been able to address the recurring issues and I guess people feel like he's passing the buck to the players to fix it I still think they woudl have been fine if he had stuck with the lines with Kakko on Zibanejad's right and Laf on Panarin's line While Vesey hasn't been completely terrible on that line with Zibanejad I still think it's far less effective than it was and could be again they basically went from "very good analytics but unlucky results" to "panic and put bottom six players in the top six and now get lovely analytics and lovely results" e: Dolan taking more of an interest in the Rangers lately is bad news though e2: I also still think the lack of progress from Kakko and Laf is fair to point at Gallant at this moment and another big reason why he should have let them grow on the top two lines. These guys again just aren't being given consistent roles and the ability to develop into certain spots and are the first ones to be hosed with whenever he wants to mess with the lineup.

https://twitter.com/koshtorontosun/status/1599837922680635392 Its Conor Timmins time! And Robertson stays up on line 2. Too bad Aube-Kubel was waived because Aston-Reese - Der-Arguchintsev - Aube-Kubel would be a hell of a line.

It would be cool to see the Robertson/SDA pair grow up from the Petes>Marlies>Leafs. Could be fun as an offensive super sheltered 4th line or even just the PP2.

Growing up, there was a year or two where I became a Red Wings fan, just to upset my Leafs loving family. Unfortunately, I think I started to be a Leafs fan again just before the Wings won their Cup, so I didn't even get to experience a win. To think what could have been...

^^it's saying that the Rangers got too perimeter oriented on the attack? can't wait to get hosed on again by Jason Robertson's little brother tomorrow night I seem to recall that the Leafs played the Robertson / Hintz / Pavelski line pretty tough earlier this year, maybe this is the one when the older Robertson breaks his streak

Starsfan posted:^^it's saying that the Rangers got too perimeter oriented on the attack? I mean basically yeah they stopped generating good scoring chances. the "eye test" bears it out IMO. The top two lines were able to cycle and attack and create chances early in the season. They got very unlucky with a lot of poo poo and maybe if it kept happening you could say there's some flaw in things but the coach mixed up the lines and has stubbornly stuck with them even though the results have been even worse. His excuse right now is "we have our own stats and those lines gave up a litttle bit more than the current lines" which like ok if you're talking "give up less defensively at the expensive of a bit of offense" but the reality is that they've just sucked out loud all over the ice and that excuse doesn't hold much water. and once again I'm getting all riled up about how Laf and Kakko just have no role on this team and how these coaching staffs (Quinn and Gallant) are coaching them to be role players but also role players that the coaches don't trust and therefor those guys are producing like role player and getting worse as the season goes I wouldn't be surprised to see them ask for a trade at some point

"X amount of coaches haven't trusted the player, it's not the way the player is being coached it's the player" see: the Dallas media on Denis Gurianov's ongoing role on the team Like.. yeah all of these coaches have come up in the same culture under the same kind of training and they all basically agree with each-other on what is important and what is not important. It's not a surprise when multiple coaching staffs in a row that are "different" all treat a player the exact same way and the results for the player don't change.

well and in these guys cases it is a bit different than you usually get with top picks. There was already top offensive stars in those main roles on the team so yeah the high picks didn't get forcefed big minutes like others might. Where the issue is I feel like is there hasn't really been a focus on trying to develop them into the role of "future stars of the team" it's always been "supporting role of the existing stars" and "first players to get bounced down the lineup when the coach gets antsy" Again neither of these guys has ever seen a minute of power play 1 time (well that might be exaggerating but not really, they've never officially been on the 1st power play)

Martin Fehervary is on IR after getting his shoulder/arm injured by Lucic, and Darcy Kuemper’s brain is hot. I know old team is old and will likely get injured a lot but it’s not only the really old dudes like Backstrom and Oshie getting hurt. Connor Brown tore his ACL, Fehervary is hurt, Kuemper got elbowed in the head, Orlov got hurt for the first time in his career, etc. It may be a blessing in disguise because even if healthy the roster isn’t good enough to win in the playoffs, so maybe it’ll force some changes this offseason/TDL. But it still stinks seeing all these dudes go down with injury.

High shooting percentage but you expect "well maybe more icetime with good players and the percentage goes down but number of shots go up etc" Hughes had 20 and averaged 5 and a half minutes more of icetime (though I didn't split out PP time from those numbers) Something is just hosed this year

Levitate posted:https://twitter.com/RLuker12/status/1599429419608969217 I think this is a dumb take from Rob. The ratio of high danger chances vs scoring chances only matters if the number of total scoring chances stays constant. That said some quick adding and division to make averages - The Rangers went from creating 32.46 chances/60 in their first 15 games to 31.15 in their next 10. The drop off is significantly worse for High Dangers going from 13.66 to 11.4. Of course this type of analysis isn't really worth much if there was also an improvement on the defensive suppression side, but I don't have time for that right now.

If you wanna look at a guy who came through and did well you can look at Buchnevich but a huge difference there is that the coach finally decided to trust him and keep him up on the line and give him lots of opportunities. And he did great and is a very good player That hasn't been done with Laf and Kakko for any real length of time at this point

Both Laf and Kakko probably shouldn't have been pushed into the NHL during 1.5 hosed up covid seasons. We all bitched about the OHL/AHL rules for Othmann but this extra year he's spending while dominating is probably a good thing for his development (and its great he's not involved with the current shitshow), It's also clear that Gallant has zero gameplan/system other than play Fox 35 minutes a night and hope Shesty bails you out.

Gallant pulled the same thing with Hunt last year and it was miserable. Yeah as much as I think it's the wrong decision with what this team needs to do with its young players, Vesey has played alright. It's just...you know it's Vesey, you'll never get anything more than this "alright" play. Versus developing a young player with high upside into something better These quotes from Kakko are just...blah quote:There was a rightful fascination with reuniting the Kid Line of Lafrenière, Chytil and Kakko, which provided such a noticeable spark on last season’s run to the Eastern Conference Final. But as Kakko said last week, “it wasn’t the same” this time around. (playing with Kreider and Zibanejad) quote:“I think I played my best hockey I’ve ever played with those guys,” Kakko said. “In the corners, I can stay with the puck and create chances. With Mika and Kreids, I did that a lot. That was our game and they trusted me with that.” quote:The constant back-and-forth, being yanked from one line to the next without any consistency, is taking its toll. Making matters worse, multiple players have indicated those moves are being made without any communication from the coaching staff as to why.

I guess this is one of those symbolic games they give a hot Marlie as a carrot to everyone else toiling down there and nothing will come of it unless he blows the doors off (he won’t) I suspect Keefe has realized that someone needs to score in the bottom 6 because if/when one of the big 4 forwards gets injured (assuming Matthews isn't still playing through some malaise) it will be even harder to keep holding onto one goal leads for dear life. I will give Keefe credit for zero regulation losses in the last 10 considering the defense he's been given to work with, which would also imply giving credit to Dubas for the baffling goalie choices somehow working out so far.

No. Just think how you’d feel if he was getting paid 7m AAV instead. I’m still mostly happy with how that went. I just wish Lou had traded for him instead. Even retaining 50-60% would have been great (for MN).
