K'Andre finally threw a hit...except it was on his own team mate and will probably end the career of Chytil. If that elbow in the chin of Chytil was thrown on a Shark player it would probably have been a major and match penalty. Still not sure why Miller brought his elbow up on that play.

Aren't players self aware enough to know they aren't playing their best or making way too many mistakes? Don't those players WANT to make the playoffs for the chance at the cup? How can we do that if the newer guys dont get their time to shine? Even in his prime, how did anyone see Mika as someone worth investing in for the long run?

they just are not good from miller to mika these r supposed to be your better players. they should be rebuilding instead. laviolette blows please with this guy

That game was baaaaaaaad...

This game was actually so hard to watch. My family turned it off bc the Rangers had no energy anywhereeeeee in this game. So disappointing. Give the 3rd/4th liners more time 😩

Hi Derek! It was quite embarrassing. My personal conclusions coming from this game: (1) Line changes were some kinda "one shot to nothing" (snooker), Lavi had to do something getting Zib rolling. It didn't work, so please go back to the original o-lines and give Zib a kick in his bum. (2) Currently the d-lines are a mess. They really are. The pairings don't fit, so please go back to Miller/Fox, Schneider/Trouba and Mancini/Jones. (3) Lindgren has to be the healthy scratch. No excuses. I don't care about his contract at 4.5m. He's such an uncertainty factor like...(4)...Miller, who's not playing consistently enough to be a Ranger long term. Maybe a trade could be necessary. Dunno. (5) If Shesty has a bad day like yesterday, the team's showing a confession of failure. Not acceptable for being a so-called cup contender. They have to bounce back against Detroit and also show some strength against the Jets. The least what we are waiting for. Think of the people paying 150 bucks for seeing this crap in a home game. :( I'm really angry. Keep up the good work, Derek, all the best, Dennis...LGR, nevertheless!

Mika is a no show that line is a liability

Losing hope for these rangers 😩

Love your show. Any chance you can cover the Knicks too?

Proud of Volpe for stepping up after the baserunning gaffe. One game at a time! 💪🏼

I'm not able to watch every game, but your videos make it so easy to know what happened and have takeaways for when I watch the next one!!

Rodon is simply awful. So predictable that he would give up all those homers. Just killer…especially when our bats have no spark. We’re in trouble boys

Kiermaier not on the WS roster. Rojas took Lux spot. Lux terrible against lefties.

The only reason Yankees were even in that game was Cole’s pitching and Stanton. Tonight you have a really good lefty, but the Dodgers are elite hitters who crush lefties. Barring a lifetime achievement by Rodon tonight you’re in for another crusher. The Yankees are built around Judge and can’t win without his bat. Ohtani is just a bonus to the Dodgers. They can win without him. They can win without Mookie. They can win without Freddy. Why? Depth. Where’s you Edman? Kike? Muncy? Lux? Your B guys who come up clutch.

L.A. are on a mission...😮😮😮

Feels like a must-win tonight. What a gut-punch 😥

Hi Derek! Afer the great disappointment versus FLA, this is a huge enlightenment for the Rangers. Perfect deal! I'm very happy. :) Thanks for your statement, take care, Dennis

Go New York Rangers 🟥⬜🟦

Schneider and fox need to be a pair

Miller has looked pathetic so far this season, he looks incredibly lazy and has done nothing but give up terrible turnovers. Mika and smith line is a liability defensively

thanks derek. weak effort. we win with rempe in the lineup. period

Rangers simply spanked Montreal... Keep the focus Rangers... L.G.R.!!!!!

Great game

Hi Derek! Thanks for the show, great analysis as always. Yeah, the occuring d-line situation with an oversupply of healthy and (!) good players seems to become an "issue" in the near future. Lavy shouldn't scratch Mancini and Jones, in my opinion. But surely you can't scratch a 4.5m Lindgren as well, even though I doubt his efficiency compared to those young guns in the long run, sorry. But I'm so happy that Smith and Carrick show up as major improvements on the team, which gives me a very good feeling for the cup run. I'm waiting for the ECF-backlash on Thursday, hopefully the Rangers will have their (small) revenge. All the best and take care, Dennis

the dodger's are better than the yankee's also....it doens't mean they'll win but if they get good pitching they'll win...they have 1-9 not just ohtani, betts and freeman...but both hernandez's, smith, taylor, edman, muncy, all those guys are patient get on base and hit well. will smith is the best catcher in the playoffs and calls a great game...but it could be close depending on the pitching.

2017 probably the most recent when Astros beat Yankees in lcs and faced dodgers in World Series

There is pressure in the Yankees too duke... NY homer 4:38

Dodgers won the world series in 2020.... It counts because they got the pennant okay... Ridiculous

Great analysis

You know baseball. Dodger fan here. Let the best team win brother

This game would have went so differently if Detroit could bury their chances. Nonetheless, I was satisfied with our effort, and did a good job killing off their power plays. Of course I want more than just Panarin's line to score, but that doesn't concern me. We've had scoring up and down the lineup in previous games. Quick also looked good, he still surprises me. Hope we continue this energy for the next game and get a win in Toronto.

Nice to see everyone loves Panarin again - until the playoffs. Either way. Panarin gets this team to the playoffs. The supporting cast has to step up too. If this team cant win without Panarin getting over PPG - there is a problem.

Grest game

Great video as always

looked pretty good, puck movement looked good while being seemingly less turnover prone passes then last year. Only one game but not a bad start. Trouba and miller consistency this year is going to be the key and staying healthy with the youth with see from camp could serve us well.

We are back!

great opening night LGR

Gritty victory. Cole is a choke.

Can’t wait for Saturday. Can’t underestimate KC, but believe in our Yanks. Let’s go baby 👏

The head coach should be fired. After he found out that Gano had a groin injury he should have gotten a back up kicker. The special teams coach should be fired for not having his punter practice extra points kicks, and also not reminding Gano not to be chasing anybody because of his groin injury. The guy who attempted to kick the extra points should be sent home for such a poor attempt. Gano should be traded or expelled for being an idiot, knowing he had a groin problem, out there chasing the kick returner. They all are a bunch of idiots.

If I might ?! - The choice of Jersey herein ..... would go over better BEFORE THE SEASON ..... Now it looks sad. The Yankees need a tune-up .... the GIANTS need an OVERHAUL !!!

Boone is placing his career in the arm Clay Holmes? It’s hard to believe. I’d go with Gil. He’s a strikeout pitcher. THATS what you need as a closer.

HE WILL BE GONE BEFORE HE BECOMES A UFA..

YOU ARE CORRECT, HE IS GONE.... NOT BECAUSE OF THE CAP, BECAUSE OF HIS SMALL SIZE, INJURY HISTORY, LACK OF OFFENSE, AND INABILITY TO BEAT A FORECHECKER ONE ON ONE.. GM RURY IS SMART.. WELL DONE... RANGERS DO NOT WANT HIM, 3 PLAYOFFS IN A ROW HE WAS TRAPPED IN HIS OWN ZONE.. IT WAS PITIFUL

ONE YEAR DEAL? AND THE WAY THE CONTRACT CAME ABOUT, LINDGREN WILL BE TRADED. LINDGREN CAN NOT MOVE THE PUCK AGAINST PLAYOFF FORCHECKING.... LINDGREN KNOWS HIS DAYS ARE NUMBERED...HE GETS HURT TOO MUCH, AND HAS ZERO OFFENSIVE UPSIDE... WELL DONE BY GM DRURY, ONLy STEP LEFT IS TO TRADE LINDGREN,,,

Jazz welcome to the Yankees. Please don't let them change who you are, they have a habit of doing that. You do you! They made you shave and take the name off your back and that's their rules. Fine, now you complied, now you play hard and be yourself!!

Lindgren might go bye-bye with Trouba. What do you pay Lindgren...3.8 or 4.1? Is he worth it?

Go Noo Yorck Yanciez!!!!!!!!!!!!! -Love from all 17,360,000 of us in Guatemala!!!!!!!

Smith was a near non-entity for Pittsburgh. He played perhaps 2 weeks of the season and then was MIA. Perhaps he will rebound......
