it's so funny the Ranger hatred around here, if Skjei was literally on any other team people would be freaking out about him

it was two bloggers opinions...relax

I'm not saying he isn't good, just saying you are a little overzealous

I'll never bring up his 4 playoff goals again. They were 4 lucky shots. Never happen again.

are you 12? there is a difference between saying his shooting % is unsustainable and an evaluation of his overall play. fyi. no one said he sucks. at this point Slavin IS better than Skjei based on any criteria you care to use. aside from being a fan of the team he plays on. As his Werenski. can it change? sure it can. IMO, Slavin and Werenski will always be the better players.

I think you meant under.
I'm not talking about this forum. I mean that you rarely hear his name when talking about top players. Personally, I don't know where he slots in. After Karlsson and Hedman I think there's a bunch of guys who are right there. But, I watch just about every NY game and I can say without bias that Mac does everthing at an elite level.

3-2 can be rounded up to 4000 times, yes.

It's too bad McDonagh wasn't in that 2009 series. Because we'd have won and you really be wrong
