  1. Rangers deserved it as a huge rangers fan they are a embarrassment, hughes mocks them every game and they do nothing , let him skate everywhere nobody hits him and lets him do what ever he wants , the rangers are soft ,period , drury has done a. Bad job bringing in toughness and grit , but this starts and ends with sixe and great D and unfortunately the rangers dont have it

  2. We're giving Valiquette way too much air time with this.
    Even the other guy in studio with him was basically "ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO SAY THAT, STEVE?"

  3. Maybe I’m wrong, but i always assumed good goaltenders like Shesterkin study tape on the team they’re going to play. That way they can see what moves these players will make on breakaway/ shoot out type situations. So good offensive players have to constantly come up with new “razzle dazzle instagram hockey” type moves to fake out the goalie. Hasn’t this always been a thing?

  4. I'll never get pro sports teams getting embarrassed. You're at the highest level of competition. Don't like that Jack tried to score on you? Play better and don't give up a breakaway.

  5. I can't believe how much steam this is getting. I think Vally used some wrong words here. I think his intent was to state the Rangers should be embarrassed to show no emotion in letting Jack Hughes get away with clowning on Shesterkin…which Jack has EVERY right to to as any other player in the league would do if the roles we're reversed especially in rivalry games! The true ''embarrassment'' here is the Rangers themselves. Soft, and lacking leadership from top to bottom especially in this veteran core and being as frail as a 10000 year old mummy at the least little locker room issue that arises while completely folding on itself when things stop going their way. Zero accountability for horrible efforts that are so bad, the players should have to pay fans to watch! Hughes has every right to taunt this lifeless bunch.

  6. Lifelong rangers fan, jack hughes was just being jack Hughes. Thats what i expect from him.
    Rangers lost. The rangers are the ones who lost it, the devils had some good looks but would have been stopped by a competent defense.
    It aint that the devils won, its that the rangers lost.

  7. That breakaway was so clean.
    Hughes could have stood there and stick-handled in front of the goal for another 3 seconds before the Rags caught up to him.
    That's really what Valiquette is embarrassed about.

  8. rangers are stinko ! we went from decent start to season to garbage in a matter of 2 weeks ,
    we have no grit , and shitsterkin is not good but has no help from defense, devils , caps, carolina way ahead of rangers.

  9. Jack and the devil are not embarrassing the Rangers they doing a good job of embarrassing themselves and if they felt they were being embarrassed and do something about it

  10. Just another product of our latest generation… IG, TikTok trying to make the net buzz with his move. What is sad is when guys like this are left alone to do their magic all game long. Hit the guy once and guaranteed he will stay far away from you.

  11. Hughes is not that type of Player. The Ranger defense are lacking confidence so they are playing inconsistent Hockey so what are the chances of scoring against Igor? the kid did everything to score so what it is expected from all players.
