Can we not have Ray Ferraro on the national broadcasts during Rangers games? Guy clearly hates the team and will put a dig in every chance he gets. It's as bad as Milbury.

Not for nothing but these guys are superstars and they have had almost 20 minutes of PP time and in 2 games and they havent produced a point yet. Im not talking about pixie dust or instant magic but they have shown nothing at all.

I still have some hope but Kane hasnt shown any kind of dazzle at all either.

Terrible game, Igor human, Panarin is terrible and Kane for over 20 minutes of ice was invisible.

TJ where is that chemistry?? All I see is some water and dirt, which makes mud!!

- Brukie

Kane has been here for TWO games! What’s your problem? Geez sorry he didn’t get a hat trick today.! Considering the circumstances I think they played a lot better than anybody thought they would (including me!) so do yourself a favor roll up a big bone and chill thr (frank) out!

Have you seen anything that might hint that they have played well together?? You would have thought that with all the hype it would be just a little bit better. But to produce nothing and have more turnovers than chances isnt a step in the right direction.

I mean you guys had a tough offseason. It sucks just being short of the playoffs and not having the best odds for beard.
All good with me bud. You still golfing (well during the summer )?

- bonzo11

Yes golfing lots. Just got back from Arizona. It was awesome. Any of the other mafia crew still on here?

He’s past his prime and doesn’t play defense/back check. When ur the superstar of your team (like he was during those cup runs) but the rest of ur team is responsible defensively you can get away with it. When you have 3 guys (Kane/Panarin/Tarasenko) that all play like that, it’s a problem. Did u see the way boston hustled back in their own zone and took all the space away? That’s y they’re so affective, not bc they have 3 guys sitting up top waiting to cherry pick and break away

You could be right I’m not going to give up on him after two games though.

When does it get to a point though where it clearly isn’t working with Kane and Panarin on the same line and on the PP? It was kinda pitiful the way they played today. Everything is to deliberate and predictable. The next 4 days are going to be very beneficial for them and get a little healthy here and work on plenty of things. I’m very concerned with the simple fact that anyone watching today could tell you exactly what was going to happen when either one of them has the puck. They look soft and unbalanced throughout the lineup just looks off. Like we have lost our identity. Obviously we know losing Lindgren and Miller are astronomical loses to any lineup. Just my thoughts…

Trochek needs to C PP2, Chytil at C on the PP is almost a guaranteed lost faceoff.

Sadly not. Beer was banned for good. Ray left completely. Rib is still around lurking as is realitychecker but very rare you see them. I think they may be in the nucks thread mainly.

Were the courses nice out there? I haven't been out in some time. Didn't get to play much last summer

Since his 4 Goals & 1 Assist 5 Point night at Carolina 3 weeks ago to the day, succeeded by his 2-G & 1-A in their next game's 6-4 win at VAN. on Feb. 15th, Panarin has scored just 1 Goal over the last 9 games (3-5-1).

In the next game's 5-4 shootout win Feb. 17th following the win at Vancouver, Panarin recorded 2 Assists, which ultimately became the Rangers' final win of their 7 game winning streak that started Jan. 27th vs. Vegas at MSG.

This makes the Rangers (2-5-1) overall in their last 8 games starting 2 Sat's. ago with their 3-2 OT Loss at Calgary.
Coincidentally, over this 8 game downfall, Panarin has just 5 pts., the equal recorded in his 5 pt. game Feb. 11th at CAR., but in reverse (1-G & 4-A).
Equally disappointing, Panarin has a (-6) +/- rating in this 8 games span, which includes a (-3) in today's 4-2 loss at Boston.
His also pointless line mates today struggled; in Kane a (-2) & Trocheck a (-1).

In the two games to date with the Panarin - Trocheck - Kane line:
Panarin has 1 pt. in an Assist & a (-5) rating.
Trocheck has 1 pt. in an Assist & a (-2) rating.
Kane is still pointless, with a (-4) rating.

Four game days rest with 4 days of practice better work wonders immediately with most current of concern prior to their game in about 2 hours, the Penguins just 8 pts behind now, but with 2 Games In Hand on the NYR going into their 6:00 pm start at FLA. That along with having 3 head to head games within 7 days against us starting next Sunday at Pittsburgh.

We made moves to get ooo’s and ahhh’s out of the crowd, not to win a cup. Waste of picks. We made our move with Tarasenko, should’ve went for “playoff” type guys after that.

I have a feeling your only getting a 2nd round pick
- SouthernRanger


with the next four days off will be good for the rangers...the coaching staff has to figure out the best way to use 10, 91 and 88. Its tough coming in with all the emotion of leaving a team you have played 16 years for with all that success and then come to NYC with all the hype and get thrown into two games.

Kane seemed tentative and in a fog trying to figure things out. 10 and 88 forced it to each other numerous times leading to broken up passes and turnovers.

Those guys will get it together and explode down the stretch...you will see some great plays from them.

However do the rangers have enough to get past the big bad and very good Bruins. Not sure any team does this year. For gawd sakes they are 33-0-3 when scoring 1st goal and held opponents to 2 or less goals in 41 games.

They should get better when healthy but they are not good defensively from the defense out.

Kane hopefully gets better but after tarasenko I would’ve traded for orlov and asked about Wilson who let have been available. That would have been a more complete PO team
