Top 3 lines are a lock I would say all four lines are a lock at this point. There’s no chance he breaks up that fourth line to give Zajac playing time especially for what he has bought so far besides a couple of decent games. Good to see the Nelson line playing some good consistent hockey. Hopefully they can keep it up but we’re going to need some scoring from that first line. Can’t depend on only them and the Pageau line to deliver the one or two goals most likely needed to win. Should be interesting to see how these lines perform in the playoffs.

Well the Beau Bailey Nelson line has done very well I think Komarov is the best fit for theb1st line and I tlreally like the palmeiri pags wally line

They will almost certainly be extremely expensive.

Cheapest ticket to get in the door for Saturday's Devils game was almost $300

I’m hopeful that Palmieri, Wahlstrom, and Pageau continue to play well together but one good game doesnt do it for me hopefully Palmieri can continue with what we saw last game. Hopefully Nelson’s line can keep the way they’re playing. Hey if Komarov plays well in the playoffs on the first line great but let’s say I’m just a bit skeptical.

I wish trotz threw Beau up there a month ago and called it a day with the chemistry him and Barzal had in the past. I wish it at least got a look but Beau has been good where he is so it’s not the easiest call. One good game and eight points/one goal in 32 games most of which were on the first line doesn’t make me think he’s the best fit for the first line but I would be ecstatic if he proves me wrong in the playoffs. There’s not much to work with...

I’ll stick to what I’ve been saying I expect to see a much better team in the playoffs then we have been seeing recently but that’s not based on us having one good last game.

Tickets for the Saturday Rangers game were even more expensive than that.

I was down on LI Friday night for a Saturday soccer game and looked up prices for poops/giggles and thought that was an error. $300 for Devils game

They made the POs?
Maybe we should give Barry and Lou a little more time?

He the best fit they seem to have currently but as soon as they can fire him into the sun when Lee is back I'm all for it

I thought the series were starting this weekend not games 3 and 4 at home. The two home games should be next week Tuesday or Wed I would think as Boston still has 2 games left

If I recall Cappy has either coached or been an assistant for one or two of the World's teams in the past, still funny though
- eichiefs9

I think Torts was picked to coach one of the Olympic teams and he selected Cappy as one of his assistants. Shockingly, the USA finished without a medal.

Crappy has been selected as an assistant a few times. I've never understood why, but other coaches say he is well prepared. Maybe he is good at analytics, but sucks at game plans. I have no idea. I just hope he coaches the Rangers for the next 25 years.
