Its so odd, we had the right kinds of players, but screwed the pooch on everything else related to them.

We ran into a buzz saw last year in the ECF. Drury’s fascination with getting rid of 2 veteran leaders caused chaos on this team. It cost him to panic sell Kakko, and who knows what else. I hate this man more than maybe anyone that’s been a part of this organization in a LONG time, maybe ever.

Drury hasn’t been great but the blame is squarely on the players. They are a bunch of emotional losers who aren’t even trying. Grow a pair. You’re getting paid millions. Get them all out of here

Islander and Ranger players should shake hands. both team soft in every way.

I’m not absolving the players of blame. Trust me, I think there should be a fire sale. Fox should go, Panarin should go, Kreider should go etc etc. But Drury has butchered our future and has made some really dumb decisions that have set us back. I don’t understand how more ppl on here aren’t enraged at how he’s handled this team and trades.

This is what happens when players have 7-year contracts with NTC or NMC and are too comfortable. It takes a lot for teams to be able to change the mix. I feel for the coaches.

I would be 100% on board with Panarin and Fox both getting traded with 50% retained to maximize the return.

Fox 50% retained???? Massive haul.

Islanders must have been sympathetic to the Ranger woes with their lopsided loss

NMC are a killer, ask us about Mikas bullet proof contract.

(frank) it, clean house, Fox, Panarin, Mika, CK20, Miller. This team will not win a Cup.

At this point I'm rooting for losses, potential trade dealine firesale and draft capital. I think Drury has proven he wasn't ready for this role.

Trouba/goodrow made sense and am happy we got out of those contracts. Kakko made absolutely 0 (frank)ing sense though. One of the few having a good year and doesn’t even get a good return. No reason to trade him at all. That was my breaking point. (frank) Drury.

Yea Kakko was one of the few that would be able to get a forecheck going and protect the puck down low. Nobody else on this team wins battles below the hash marks. It’s one of the many issues I have with this team. Drury didn’t do himself any favors with that one.

I hope the next rebuild they do it right, burn it to the ground and start fresh!!

This rebuild was ass backwards

I guess the hawks were right after all. You were told panerin is useless in the playoffs…you thought you raked the hawks in the kane trade. Your window closed three years ago

Panarin, Trocheck, LAF, Cuylle, Berard, Carrick, Fox, Schneider and Shesty are the only players Id keep and burn the rest of it down.
- aecliptic

You should dump panerin

What are we supposed to do, give the coaches 1yr contracts and just have a revolving door since thats all the patience they have for coaches…?
- aecliptic

Your problem isnt coaching, dude

Drury is a moron for what he traded Kakko for. Idc what anyone else thinks, he’s an idiot. Kakko was not the problem and once again he got fleeced in a trade.
- nyrangers9479

Lol… what exactly did you expect.. a first rounder? You guys crucified the guy but now hes worth a lot. Jokers.

Anyone lose their drunk uncle this morning

All the kakko hate is unjust.. he played against men!!

Where did you find Drury?

If u followed along on here I never crucified the guy. Was always a big supporter of his and he was finally justifying that this year.

Rangers wouldn't have signed Igor long term if they were planning to do a rebuild. This will be another failed re-tool that involves softy Panarin & a defensive bunch that lacks any hockey IQ

santa came early

The angst level on here has been turned up a notch or two I see. Sometimes you just have to accept that we had our shot(s) at it, and it didn't turn out. When you get to the final 4 five times in twelve years, odds are you win one championship at least. Didn't happen for us. Let's not all act like this year was going to magically be the year it happened if not for Drury asking Trouba to accept a trade and playing hardball with Goodrow. We all have eyes and can see what we lacked the past three years when it came down to it.
