Sportsnet said " well will get to Head coach Huskas after game thoughts after the break." Then after the break Here is the Oilers starting the 2nd period.
Proving once again that consumer AI is a pile of crap. (For that matter so is the one at Microsoft Azure. It doesn't even know its own structure. Garbage.)

A win tonight would be absolutely massive for our playoff odds after the Blue Jackers loss last night. If we defend like we have been we should win easily. We're due for a couple goals after last game.

Winning again would be downright decadent

Game 69. Our lucky night
Quote:
Win the game you dumb #######s
Quote:
The Rangers have no excuses tonight and on Thursday. Calgary played last night in Toronto. The Leafs are playing the Avs Wednesday night at home. The Rangers game will be the Leafs 3rd game in 4 nights.
Quote:
Calgary had to play last night and travel and their backup goalie is playing. There’s really no excuse to not win this game.
Need to get their #### together.

Gelinas and Huselius 2 goals each. Regehr decks Laf open ice. Rangers lose 4-0.

The real Miikka. Two i's and k's.

Mika is into EDM while Miikka was jamming out to Finnish death metal before every game
Kadri rocks Fox’s socks
Quote:
Fox is ass. Falls down, overchases, and is standing behind the goal line on a net front goal. Idiot.

f*** you, Fox
f*** you, Panarin
Quote:
Top 4, PP specialist. Nowhere near Makar, Heiskanen, Hedman, Hughes, Dahlin, Josi, Werenski, … you get the idea.
Quote:
Fox is dogging it. Him and Laf can’t lead this team shirking responsibility. McDonagh and Callahan would never.
Quote:
Rangers inability to cover or clear the front of the net is astounding
Quote:
Maloney went off on him on the radio.
Quote:
Maybe don't leave a guy open in front
Quote:
How exactly do you end up behind the goal line when the puck never goes behind the goal line? Only one man knows.
Quote:
Fox was practically in the bleachers on that play
Quote:
Our brain farts in the defensive zone are impressively bad
Quote:
Rangers handling the puck looks like they’ve never held a stick before
Quote:
We f***ing suck at the very basics of the game.
Quote:
You play with flames, you will get burned
Quote:
Lol, 4 flat footed Rangers around the net
Quote:
Rangers just standing around while they put the puck in the net
Quote:
Hit the deck there why are you reaching with your toe back like that lmao
Quote:
Trochek with his hand on his ass in the defensive slot.
Quote:
I mean that was a weird bounce, but who were they even defending on that goal?
Quote:
It was coming. Flames want it more than us right now.
An Earned Reputation
Quote:
I was laughing at the Rempe for captain jokes earlier today. Now I’m starting to think he’s the only player who seems to consistently have some jump on every shift
Quote:
Right in front of the Ref no ####ing call but let’s get Rempe for whatever that was
Quote:
And yet they’ll hit Remps with a major for giving a guy a dirty look…
Quote:
Rempe tax
Quote:
Imagine if Rempe threw that nutshot. He’d probably get sniped from section 400 by Parros himself
Quote:
Matt Rempe can’t skate, and guys who can’t skate lead into the boards and checks with their arms/elbows out. He is always going to get penalties because of this.
And…PP goal.
Coronato Snipes on the PP
Quote:
The #### were they doing? (I ask for the 700th time this season)
Quote:
No me gusta el hockey
Quote:
Coronato. Pride of Huntington
Quote:
Rangers score then promptly suck ass.
Quote:
Second goal tonight Trocheck is in no mans land.
Quote:
Thats whats so funny about how awful they are defensively…the vast majority of high danger chances against they’re in perfect position defensively to prevent chances net front and leave to cover empty space or have numbers to easily defend a rush and decide to double the least dangerous option, leave a guy wide open, and have zero concept of taking away passing lanes
Quote:
Of course I tune in for a goal against right off the bat.
Quote:
Coronato has a Seth Jarvis thing going, poor guy.
This period has been horrendous. Love how this team thinks they can sleep walk into the playoffs
Quote:
Look out guys Mika’s angry!
Quote:
Mika yelling at the ref for missing the call instead of the guy who slashed JT in the nuts perfectly describes this team’s mentality
It’s comical at this point
Quote:
Which team played in Toronto last night?
Quote:
Sloppy hockey. 16-6 shots for them. Do we even have a coach ?
A Hope and a Prayer
Quote:
Rangers need to start passing the puck with some purpose. So many hope passes.
Quote:
So many giveaways
Quote:
This just isn't a good team. Any potential playoff berth will be short lived.
Quote:
All the flames do is skate hard in straight lines and the rangers are having all sorts of trouble with that
Quote:
Why don't they pull up and curl towards the boards, they ask themselves. We do that all the time!
Quote:
Don't skate in a straight line or anything guys, wouldn't want to totally shock Calgary players into heart attacks.
Quote:
What the f*** do the rangers even practice? How is Panarin behind the net with the puck and there’s no support on the boards? We don’t need two guys standing around the f***ing crease.
Quote:
It’s pretty obvious…they practice the high flip into the neutral zone, wrapping pucks around the boards, getting their stick to the wall to deflect wraps out of the zone, loafing passes into traffic entering the off zone, and staying out of the middle of the ice
Quote:
The backhand shovel pass from the boards into the anticipating defender for an odd man rush in the other direction is sheer perfection.
I can call it before it happens and my wife asks if I'm rewatching an old game.
"Yes... Yes I am."
Quote:
I love watching how this team can't make simple plays, like a basic zone break out or stringing together 2 consecutive passes, but when they actually have a scoring chance they're always trying to make the perfect play.
It's so infuriating.
Quote:
The rangers are so flawed at the most basic fundamentals of the sport. Spacing, puck support. It’s why can only score off turnovers or odd man rushes.
Quote:
This team f***ing refuses to show up unless they're playing a good team that they're unlikely to beat. It's maddening. There's no reason we should be this badly outplayed by this garbage Flames team.
Quote:
Why shoot when you can just pass it one more time?
Quote:
Our passes are so bad no one is actually sure who the intended target is
Quote:
Normally I don’t make a big deal about effort but you can see the difference between a team that is playing with max effort and the rangers who play slow, predictable, and no intensity. Losing every puck battle, no puck support, always settling for a high risk play instead of making things easier for their teammates.
Quote:
They’re playing like they’re smoking the pot. Don’t love it.
Quote:
If we’re not going to hire a coach who can handle the modern game, then get a hard ass coach to beat the fundamentals and a work ethic into these guys.
Quote:
calgary will get to 30 shots before this ####ty team gets to 10
Quote:
You could do a Sesame Street count episode with our turnovers tonight.
And you know how I feel about goalies, I'm just saying, from their perspective, it doesn't seem good.
Quote:
What the hell are you doing Vaak?
Quote:
Why are you hitting people into your own goalie? Dumb f.
Quote:
Vakaneinen is such hot garbage. Are Soucy and De Haan really worse than this dude?
Quote:
Igor’s teammates hate him more than Snowblind
Quote:
Igor with 5 monster saves on grade A chances to start the game but when he inevitably gives up a goal because the Rangers are a bottom 3 defense in the NHL the morons of this sub will bitch that Igor never bails the team out anymore.
Quote:
Holy ####ing ####, if i had a dollar for every time a defenseman pushed a player into shesty this season id be a ####ing millionaire
A Serious Lack of F’s to Give
Quote:
THEY LOST THE PUCK VS A 1V5 FORECHECK WITH THE FORECHECKER STANDING STILL.
Fox literally skating in sand.
Quote:
Jesus. Boy oh boys per minute are off the charts.
Quote:
how do you get outshot MORE than 3:1? clearly they don't give a f***
Quote:
As ####ty as they are playing, if you do not come out for this 3rd period with a fire in your belly for Igor, whos getting chirped by Rasmus ####ing Andersson, and after youre getting absolutely embarrassed on home ice for the upteenth time this year, then there is no salvation for this season lol. Stop trying to ####ing blindly chip the puck out on your backhand when breaking out, exit with some speed and heavy forcheck. This is horrible
Quote:
"cross ice pass broken up"
Dont play that drinking game if you value your liver.
Quote:
Seems no one knows what their job or positioning is
Quote:
That might be the worst power play I’ve ever seen. Honestly speechless.
Quote:
that's what a no contact PP looks like. Panarin doesn't want contact, Zibanejad is leaking between his legs, Kreider is collecting disability benefits as we speak and he refused to admit he needs to sit and laviolette won't take his useless corpse off the power play.
Quote:
I've never seen a team just care so little in such big games. I'm legitimately shocked at how unprofessional this group of motherf***ers are. All season long they've had games like this. All f***ing season. They just look like they don't want to win or make the playoffs.
Quote:
NYR look like I did the first time I went from Rookie to Pro in EA 20 years ago.
Quote:
Are they intentionally passing the puck to Calgary? Because it looks like they are intentionally passing the puck to Calgary.
Quote:
I think I’m at the point where I actively dislike half of this roster.
Quote:
Even Joe sounds pissed at them. He can't take it anymore
Quote:
Blow it up.
Kreider is done. He needs 22 mins a night to show up on the scoresheet but he’ll do absolutely nothing with 19 of those minutes.
Zibanejad still has game to offer but he is so fragile mentally and can totally collapse into a scared puppy at any moment. Force him to waive his NMC and let him pick his destination.
Try to package Lafreniére+++ for Brady Tkachuk.
But really they need another top 3 D on top of that. They’re closer to picking 1st overall than to winning a Cup. The team has no identity. Are they a skill team? They’re not quick enough to use half of their skill 5 on 5. Are they a physical team? Only occasionally when the fourth line, Miller or Cuylle are out there. Are they a defensive team? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. What are they??
They’re the team watching the Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens leapfrog them into the playoff picture.
Yikes.
Quote:
It’s the most toxic team environment I’ve ever seen so it’s not surprising. Crazy that we removed the people we thought were “the problem” and we’re just as bad without them. It’s almost like this is a fish rotting from the head that starts with Drury if not Dolan.

The future of this team is on the shoulders of two Americans right now. I'm excited to watch them, so let's hope we keep them signed and happy. (Plus we get to add Parekh hopefully next season!)
If you’ve ever watched a game at MSG, you’d know that Rangers fans suck. The level of entitlement rivals Oilers fans and Leafs fans. F the Rangers and their fans

Sharangovich is an abysmal hockey player this season. Like absolutely embarrassing. He better be struggling with his return from injury because otherwise.....yikes.

I actually thought that was one of his best games. He actually bodychecked someone.
