I still don’t think most people understand that wearing a mask is to protect others, not yourself.

The water droplets suspended until air can still land on your eyes which are mucous membranes so even the best ‘N95’ medical grade masks are not effective at preventing infection for the wearer, but are effective at reducing the potential infection to others.

Again I read that the virus is smaller than X, which is a stupid arguments. The virus is traveling on water droplets that are thousands, if not millions of times bigger than the virus itself.

Wearing a mask in public places is a show of respect for other people. Wearing a mask protects others, not yourself.

The same people who are against abortion because “every life matters” are the ones who are adamantly against wearing face masks to potentially save someone’s life. Pretty hypocritical if you ask me.

Anyone in true fear of returning to work because of the virus simply needs to go to a doctor and get a note excusing them from work for whatever time period due to anxiety. You can’t lose your job or pension from a medical condition.

This virus is just beginning to get bad, the worst is yet to come. Ideas that it will be better in a few months and schools and sports venues will be safe are ignorant. If everyone would have taken precautions, worn a mask and social distanced from the start we could have been in a better spot today. But people didn’t, the president convinced stupid people that it was a hoax and no big deal, and we are dealing with the fallout of that now and for months to come.

The people yelling the loudest for things to reopen and for sports to continue are the ones who didn’t do what was necessary for that to happen. And we all suffer for it.

This country has passed the point of containing the spread. The virus will continue until a vaccine is available. In my opinion Sports will not happen this fall, schools will not reopen. There will be attempts to do so, but after the ramifications are felt they will be reversed exactly like Texas and Florida trying to reopen too early and now closing down because of it.

The NFL will try, because of the amount of money involved, but after athletes start dying, they will close down. The other sports leagues won’t even attempt a regular season until the vaccine is available. I don’t know what to believe about the timeline of when a potential vaccine will be available. My guess is somewhere around the end of the year or beginning of next year. But what I do believe is that due to our lousy leadership, life will not return to normal until the vaccine is fully distributed.

Agreed a little bit. If their power play doesn't suck next year, he'll see a further bump in point production, and he produced at a 55 point pace this year.

If I'm not mistaken keenan is 10 years older and hasnt been an nhl coach in 11 years?

Lindy ruff just got hired last week to a head coaching position after being continously around the NHL coaching circles for decades.

Your team hasn't been the worst team in the past decade.

So your logic isnt really using " my logic "

I blaimed goaltending as well, and some "experts" posted how they shouldn't be blaiming the goalies . 🤔

Not taking age into account, but probably I guess...

Keenan has coached over seas in the KHL and won their trophy. so tell me where is the disparage here? last coach to get us to where we wanted to be both votes yes right? the Rangers the youngest team in the league and their defensive coach didn't do poop, I'm struggling here what's to want?

I mean, I heard the same thing, he's pissed and wants the team to be better, but hasn't requested anything trade wise, of course that could change in time.

Well, they have been losing $$$ for a decade right?
If we’re gonna suck, might as well lose less $$$

Hopefully they don’t go too extreme

We just need to start winning games
Getting that playoff $$$ will help a lot I’d think

Your future looks bright as a Rangers fan.

"The rangers the youngest team in the league and their defensive coach didnt do sh!t"

There's your answer . Young team

Regardless , he just got re hired again with the 6th most wins in nhl coaching history. Should lock down his hall of fame ballot. I'm gonna start working on the speech.


Hired for one of 31 jobs on the planet.
Must be for some reason?

"All I can say is don’t forget what happened to this franchise when Chris Drury and Danny Briere left. It hasn’t been pretty."


I wish we had 90 points seasons, there would be hope then

That's the point, and they have the pieces to build around. They just need to do it right. Getting a taste of winning, cures a lot.
