Adam Fox is clearly banged up. The Rangers now have an opportunity to close another series out quickly and allow him more time to recuperate. I don’t think that can be understated in all this.

Rangers have to figure out how to channel the last 12 minutes of that game into the rest of the postseason. That was a different team.

Shesterkin deserves so much better than this. Dudes in tears on the bench, played his heart out all series. His teammates let him down.

It’s absolutely crazy to say, but we just watched the best Rangers’ regular season ever. Like ever.
Now they need to have the greatest postseason in franchise history.

Panarin no goals. Laf no points. Zibanejad 1 goal. Kane a liability. Chytil and Kakko disappointing. Miller played himself out of a big deal. Fox with a bad game 7.
Don’t even know how to fix it. If you fire Gallant I don’t even know who you hire. Never been more ashamed

The Rangers cannot give Igor Shesterkin 14% of the cap on his next contract. You don’t want to lose that caliber of goaltender, but the Rangers have had the luxury of incredible goaltending and haven’t constructed a proper roster because of it.

At the end of the day the Rangers hit multiple posts, including Trocheck’s in the shootout, while the Leafs score two of their three goals of pucks that deflected off bodies. Bad bounces, great battle. Rangers get a point.

The Rangers have introduced so many more looks and options to their power play. It used to be Panarin & Zibanejad on the flanks and Kreider deflections. Now they interchange and utilize the bumper. They lure you in and expose what you leave open. It’s extremely efficient.

I, for one, don’t see a world in which trading for Henrique and Vatrano but losing Kakko solidifies the bottom six. Have to find a way to keep Kakko while acquiring the help needed down the middle and on the wing.

Obviously, you feel terrible for Chytil. The reality is, he is not coming back before the postseason. Drury cannot wait for the deadline to make a move. First move I’d make is sitting down with 93,20,8 and saying you are the leaders and you need to be better.

Two things can be true at once:
Goodrow was much better in the playoffs than the regular season.
You can’t pay a fourth line forward $3.6 million, especially when the analytics still didn’t favor him at his best in the postseason.
#NYR

With the salary cap likely increasing to $83.5 mil,
#NYR
will have slightly above $68 mil on the books.
That leaves around $15 million to retain RFAs Miller, Chytil, Lafreniere, Gauthier, Kravtsov, and sign a backup goaltender.
I think they can do it.

I have stated on
@RangersIcedBrew
that I am not as high on Kakko as most, but trading him, a young player on a team with aging ones, would not make sense unless the package includes an established top-six player in return under the age of 28.

- David Quinn immediately shuffles lineup, puts Johnson up to pair 2, splits up best pairing in Fox/Lindgren, and scratches DeAngelo!

A terrible game, but two points. Shesterkin was huge in the third, OT, and shootout.
P.S. Kakko first in the shootout when you have Zibanejad, Panarin, and Kane might be Gallant’s biggest head scratcher to date.

I’m taming my Chytil expectations, but that would be amazing. I think you put him 1RW and let him play with 93 and 20 if he can come back. You can’t rush him back if he’s not fully 100%.

Trade thoughts: I am fine with the trade as long as there is a corresponding move that replaces Leschyshyn as well. This cannot be the final move. Motto’s great, but need one more piece.

Gallant strikes me as the kid who has too many new toys so he’s trying to play with them all but he’s forgotten about his favorite old toys in the process.
Zibanejad has 19 PP goals he should be playing the majority of a PP.

It’s not on the coach, it’s on the players. You’re up 3-2 now in a series you led 3-0. Win Game 6, come out like you realize Game 5 was unacceptable, and then the rhetoric will change.

At the end of the day, 1 championship in 83 years forced the Rangers brass to go all-in. They acquired the wrong pieces and had the wrong coach in place. It didn’t work, and now it’s back to square one.
