Having visions of the summer of Drury/Gomez, except, you know, not a total disaster

Maybe the Rangers can get an NHL-quality season out of Conor Sheary (he signed a cheap deal with them) but then again, maybe not.

The note on Dolan is interesting to me. I don’t think Drury is going anywhere, but the players are going to throw him under the bus. We’ll see how Dolan interprets that

Rangers out of a playoff spot, giving up leads and playing poorly against a team worse than them, Sam and JD on the call

Yeah, it’s 2000 all over again baby

Share the link, so when the Rangers are losing 5-0 after the first period tonight vs. Leafs we can get some relief

Here's another way to look at the Shesterkin contract. Based on projected future salary caps, what would be the equivalent cap hit THIS season?

Here is how Igor Shesterkin's contract projects to compare to those of Sergei Bobrovsky and Andrei Vasilevskiy. Reposting with complete information.

Anyone telling you that Shesterkin's contract is prohibitive to building a cup contender is completely ignoring reality.

This also screams of Drury saying β€œlook at this great player I acquired, now he’s part of MY core going forward”

I’d rather Borgen get this deal than Lindgren

Scrolled back and found the #NYR team RAPM chart from 11/23/24 to put it side by side to now. All tracks to what I posted yesterday.

5v5 offense has slowed, but 5v5 defense has improved a bit. Power Play generating a ton, Penalty Kill also improved and benefitting from strong goaltending.

Utter domination by the Rangers last night. One high-danger chance against is unbelievable.

J.T. Miller really isn't the kind of player a team should want. Even in his prime, he was a very volatile player who relied heavily on shooting over basically anything else. Over the last 5 seasons he's bounced back and forth from ~replacement level (not shooting well) to good (shooting well).

On Ryan Lindgren:

"I wonder about Detroit. Is he that big of an upgrade, though? That's the question I'd have to ask. And I don't know how big #LGRW is gonna spend..." #NYR
