  1. Game after game it's the same mistakes. What are the coaches doing? He's obviously out of answers and making things worse by mixing up the lines. There's a reason why coaches in the league are on a carousel.

  2. Maybe some intermission adjustments to the team when you see the fact that you’ve been scouted and you know the scouting report must say makes the last second pass through the middle of the zone so clog up the middle of the ice with bodies and sticks, and you continue to let your players make passes through the middle of the zone instead of rotating behind the net utilizing the defense on the blue line Taking shots out while crashing the net. We literally have two players going behind the net when a shot has taken instead of crashing the net for the rebound. Too many bodies standing still in this offense except for the puck carrier not enough moving pieces makes it predictable and that’s exactly what it looks like. To me it looks like our team is getting outcoached every game. The true statistic is last year. We won the president’s trophy with only four more points than Gerard Gallant first year, however we gave up 22 more goals and 10 more goals than his last year. This coaching staff has really done nothing to change much about this team statistically. The average age on this team is a little bit over 27 years old. The systems that we play is the same. I feel that this Coach has really capitalized on the momentum that this team had going into last season. If we want to make a fundamental change of play and committing to the neutral zone and defense zone, we need a completely different system Coach. It could not be more apparent than it is right now the longer it takes for the organization to see that only means that not only are we going to be looking for a new coach we also will be looking for a new general manager. If the horses are not getting the cattle to the ranch or slaughterhouse on time, it’s not the horse’s fault it’s the Cowboys.

  3. I only wish the slackers and underachievers had to face the press and annoyed fans after these atrocious losses. Rangers have degenerated from Presidents Trophy winners and conference finalists to food for bottom feeders.
    The only thing I fault coach for is not sitting as healthy scratches those who either cost us games or don't even try.

  4. The little details are lacking (not getting the puck deep behind the goaltender, F3 not being responsible, lack of communication), that doesn't fall on the GM, that falls on the coach. We need you to turn this team around and instill in the players the drive to be great and pay attention to all these details that contribute to winning. Figure it out Lavi.
