J.T. Miller is a nice addition to a team going nowhere !! He can be the catalyst for a new philosophy and line-up. This team needs more aggressive and gritty players; Some things don't change with an organization. As long as I have been a fan, this type of player has been in shortage to the Rangers. With Edstrom out, Rempe becomes the only player with size and a men streak. Cuylle is a nice piece, but his game is limited. It is time to look to the future. This team is more the one that lost last night, and NOT the one that beat Boston. Igor is being wasted, and his play is affected. Realistically, Shesterkin is the best piece to assure a strong haul. This team has too many Reilly Smiths: Solid but medioce.

They should trade laviolette for a broken stick and a used jock strap to be named later!😂

Something is just off this year with this team. The want and the effort just is not there. I don't want to see them waste cap space or lose good future prospects for a few rentals and get knocked out in the first round like they did two years ago

I don't want to see the Rangers target any players at the trade deadline because that will not solve the problem. Some Rangers fans are in denial about what the real problem is. The real problem is coaching, specifically Laviolette & D coach Housley. Did you hear Dox say twice in the postgame interview how the Pens are a well coached team? Exactly! Sullivan is a way better coach than Laviolette. As Boyle said a few games ago, the Rangers pass the puck laterally way too much, especially the D. And speaking about the D why was Ranger K'iller out there on the PK when the winning goal is scored by a guy uncovered in the slot. K'iller has no conception of the distinction between narrow vs open focus that Dmen need to know. He engages in so much puck watching(not the only one btw) & Tomassino was right in the spot K'iller just left watching the puck instead of opening focus to who is in front of the net. Detroit gassed their coach & suddenly they have won 7 straight. Laviolette's days are numbered & I hope so are Drurys.

Given the Rags lost to an AHL roster in regulation last night, maybe they shouldn't buy.

Time to move on from the boy band, get rid of Kreider and Mika bring up Othman.!trade 55and Reilly too

Sure...If the Rangers can pick up some deals at the deadline, go for it. Honestly though, they really don't have much trade capital left. (Maybe Riley Smith. I don't see them getting much at all for Lindgren) I just hope they don't fuck up their future. Not trading Othman is a good omen.

The only plan this team needs is a membership plan to the golf course. Embarrassing.

This is what happens when you don't commit to a total rebuild.

Without a doubt a new generation of Rangers needs to be influxed into the organization

Notice Kaliyev - who was playing well - is a healthy scratch... wonder if he's part of some pending trade.

They are prospects...rangers don't need anymore smallish euro trash players

Othmann sucks.

We would be lucky to get a wild card and first round exit at this point so trading Othmann for a rental would be retarded so I predict we do it.

It doesn’t matter this organization ruins prospects. Berard better remain here. How about not spoiling shit drury? U forget Sather was our gm forever long. Whata jerkoff 🤡 u r

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Bringing in rentals at the trade deadline is a waste of time & resources. Copp, Kane, Tarasov, Wennberg, Roslovic etc. Where did that get us? Nowhere. Build in the offseason instead & get assets we can lock up.

If they trade Othmann, not renewing my corp season tickets. This team has given up it’s future enough. Othmann should of been up here on this team last year. It’s makes no sense to keep him down in Hartford. I know he was hurt this year, but he is not hurt now. BRING HIM UP!!!

Give us an example of any team getting a legit 3C for a 5th or less. Any team, any time . I cannot recall any. Please look and let us know if you find anything

The Rangers are back. They’re making the playoffs. They’re better than Carolina and Jersey. You’ll see next time they play each other. They’re not selling anyone. Rangers are in a better position by not being on anyone’s radar. They’re climbing the standings and have a chance to not only make the playoffs but get to 2nd or 3rd place in the division. Then you have a series against Carolina. Rangers always beat Carolina in the playoffs. They’re a much better playoff team than those guys. All the rangers need to do is run these lines until the playoffs Kreider Miller Zibanejad Panarin Trocheck Lafreniere Drury is going to find a 3C. They could go a different route to spread the wealth as well Panarin Trocheck Lafreniere Cuylle Miller Trade deadline pickup Kreider Zibanejad Smith Moving smith is a mistake. He’s won a cup in a 3rd line role which is where he’s going to end up when they get to the playoffs. The point is that the rangers have most of the pieces required to make a run this year, so they’re going to go for it. They’re not going to throw another year of kreider away. Panarin is getting older. Kreider is too. Zibanejad is. Now they have miller who is still in his prime but on the other end of his prime years. They’re going to go for it. I’d say trade Lindgren for a better partner for fox, but fox isnt going to like that. That leaves us with needing a 3rd center or a right wing, and at least 1 LDs, maybe 2 to replace vaakaneinen. Rangers have the team to make a run, so they’re going to get in and they’re going to go for it. Look for JT Millers no prisoners mindset to run off on a lot of guys now. He hunts out there. I can see the rangers beating Washington. I can see them beating Jersey. I can see them beating Carolina. With JT Miller and possibly 1 more piece, they can beat Florida. They’re in a great position here to sneak in and make a lot of noise. I say you go for it because this team is getting older. They have 2 cracks left after this one before a big retool comes into play.

Larry Brooks is just speculating, bu next year this team is going to need a LD and if we could find a young LD who would be here for the long term I would consider it.

To me, dish lindgren and smith at td get what you can mabey you make the playoffs mabey not , we're a quick out anyway . Retool this offseason al la Washington and mabey we can do something next year.

100% agree. Really looking forward to seeing prospects make this team

Get Buchnevich + a pick to take on a bad contract

i rally hate seeing all these prospects and draft picks being jettisoned to go after rental type players or aging veterans. bringing me back to the late 90s and 2000s when we were in that deathspiral of buying overpriced journeymen because "this was the guy who was going to turn it around" and it never happened.

Good morning 🎉

Do not trade KAndre Miller. You will not replace him with anyone better. And he will continue his development in a more prominent role. He will be an ideal partner with Fox next season.

K Miller is a big man that plays SMALL. He is really soft. I thought Edstrom played well with Rempe and Carrrick. That is a STRONG tough line.

Edstrom is such a sad loss because, to me, he is even more valuable than Rempe

Kakko, Chytil, Mancini and K'Andre? All the pieces we thought we were going to build into the next generation are gone or on their way out. I know Key has had a bad season but he's still under 25 and you can salvage him. Adam Fox has scored 3 goals, 2 ENGs and has plenty of bad plays that led to turnovers or goals and no one wants to move on from him because he can rebound, come back and find his form. You trade Key and you're scrapping a kid who has more upside than any other Ranger D-Man in the barn. Kakko and Chytil leave and immediately land running and making great plays all of a sudden. Why is that? Why do kids seem to struggle and wilt in NYR and if given a chance somewhere else they flourish? No one wants to trade or thinks trading Laf is a good idea even though he fell off a cliff as soon as he signed a new deal. I think it's fair and right to question whether or not to trade guys like Kreider and Mika after the season they have had because everyone knows that they are what they are and they're only going to decline in utility and production. dumping Key feels premature to me. I'd keep him unless someone is offering something truly remarkable but no one is.

We have a 3rd line center-BRODZINSKI

I would hate to see the Rangers do with K Miller what the Buffalo Sabres constantly do - They get good young players who quickly wilt...Bufalo trades them away...they then excel with a new team. Think Jack Eichel, Sam Reinhart. K Miller has the size, speed, skills and youth to be great - but most would agree he doesn't play up to that potential. They should do with K Miller what happened with Igor, or what Rempe did - either a vacation away for a few weeks or a Summer program working privately with select outside coaches.

Not trading Miller so tired of this narrative

Keep Miller. Young, affordable and still growing-reaching prime years

I think most of the commenters here agree, K'Andre Miller needs to go. He's simply not living up to expectations

I think Edstrom could indeed be a third line player & has some upside offensively. I fear that Drury & Laviolette are very committed to K'iller & that could be an issue because trading him is essential. For me, I'd love to trade him in a package to the Sabres for Bowen Byram, a D I've always liked. I heard Jonny Lazarus say the same thing on TV & I was like RIGHT ON JONNY!

Eddy Is so underrated

1st 6-10 weeks is the season for Edstrom. Shame. The chemistry between Edstrom and his linemates was building.

Last night his hard forechecking lead to goals and has helped mika get out of his slump too

I'm not a fan of the square peg into a round hole philosophy. The fact that they have to HIDE Zibenejad on the wing is a JOKE. Talk about getting a pass. Nobody is willing to talk about how drastic this guys decline actually is. 22/23 - 90 pts 23/24 - 70 pts 24/25 - 35pts in 53 games on pace for 50ish pts and even worse a current -24 Same thing with Fox. Not a number 1 defenseman. But nobody looks the problem in the face. They refuse to see any wrong with their golden boys. Too many players are miscast for their roles and the coach won't change a thing.

Miller is not good defensively. Watched him in Van for 5 yeats.

Looks like we still need a first level line wing cause Mika isn't the answer there either 🏒🍸

Vancouver already made another trade after the NYR, and got a very good defensive defenseman (Marcus Pettersson)

3C Luke Kunin from Sharks

You are completely wrong on Miller being a good two way player sorry.

If you watch the Canucks play since the trade, it is night and day. The clouds have parted and the sun is shining. I love JT, but when he is in a foul mood EVERYONE is in a foul mood.

mancicni is gonna be great that kid will ignite any team he is on

Poor Johnny Brodziniski, finally gets his shot at 3C and the NYR are like, nah we good fam.

Dorrington is not anywhere close to Mancini. Why’d you Mancini was the reason the trade was held up via Dreger TSN. Drury finally gave in to the Mancini demand. Branstromm was scratched and waived, despite minimum cap hit. He’s also been waived by OTT who drafted him. Basically, these two are just throw in. Mancini was the target acquisition. Chytil and 1st was already set to go. Even though you might consider Chytil damaged goods, he’s not afraid of getting hit again and is playing like he’s challenging for 1C while E.Pettersson is trying to figure out things. Some concussed players are able to come back and finish out their NHl careeers.
