  1. Better announce the lineup soon. It’s the only way we know Krieder is playing
  2. Kids night in Buffalo. Kakko and ALF each score. 2 for ALf, one for Kakko, 3 point night for ALF, Rangers win 5-3, EN goal by Strome.
  3. Do NOT get my hopes up like this! I thought this was going to be "Boyle skating with team for first time...."
  4. At the very least I should be able to know he’s playing lol.
  5. Love the announcers saying it definitely went and yeah, referee at center ice seeing that lol
  6. I do agree about the age sort of. However, I think it’s also important to keep in mind that the third, fourth, and fifth youngest teams in the league are Columbus, Colorado, and Philadelphia. There is only so much of a leash we can give because of the age and have to start figuring out where is it we are going wrong from. The only things those other teams performing much better with their youth is are a better more experienced coach and or better leadership. Experience doesn’t just mean you progress. It’s not a direct vertical graph. There needs to be positive experience. Personally I think playoffs is a must this year and I don’t understand why it’s not looked at as a must. At some point there has to be positive progression and experience and this team has been gifted a lot of boosters that should have catapulted progression a lot more than it has. We cannot regress this year and a fringe playoff team last year should be a playoff team this year, not toiling amid the bottom and flirting with lottery picks.
  7. That would have been cool to get a Lundqvist of :(

  9. These poor poor pro athletes that are being labeled as can’t misses because growing up their whole lives they dominated wherever they went, had media attention that they thrived in, and did tons of interviews making sure their Gatorade sponsorship bottle was pointed in the right direction for the camera to see. God I feel so so so bad for them.
  10. At some point you take off the kid gloves and stop with it being “a process.” We have guys that are in or approaching a prime in Panarin, Ziby, Strome, Kreids. These aren’t fringe guys approaching their primes. They are impact players. Fine, they are underperforming. It’s not Quinn’s speciality....he’s about young guys. Okay Kakko lights out? No. ALF lights out? No. Howden ? No (not the same but still a prospect..) We should be much further along at this point.
  11. In the past, with many younger teams, there was a mix of energy + guys who showed from prior WINNING experience the path less taken for how to actually get it done. You need that guy after a bad shift to turn to and say “I got this” even if there wasn’t an immediate response. Just someone to calm the ship or take the reigns. We have no one? I mean who is that guy stepping in here? Shesh let’s up a bad goal. It is what it is. Who stepped up there? We run around like a decapitated chicken. I’m sorry. Again. We should be much further along than we are. This is a stacked talented team. We make it easy to play against.
