Its very hard to believe that byers/moore/jessiman couldnt do better than sjostrom and hollweig. this team is never gonna go anywhere playing such mediocre talent. finally before i have a stroke renney/pearn should be canned, shooting from the point on a 5-3 is a complete waste. how does a playoff team go 0-11 on the pp over two games....ill keep rooting for them but god i wish we had been like the pens before/after the lockout and finally gotten a high draft pick and gotten a player like malkin (but would renney let him play the point on the pp or would he even be on the rangers yet if we had him)? as bad as prucha has been all year (part his fault part renneys) would have much rather had him out there then shanny, sjostrom, dawes or hollweig (who better never play for us again).

I do not think he deserves to get fired but he is far from a the best in the nhl. the pp has sucked not olny this year but last year too. if hes such a great coach how come he cant fix it. how come he doesnt know when to take a time out. when you are down two goals you do not call a time out with 2 minutes left. the reason this team is back into a respectable position is that we actually got players who play and do not suck. Jagr could have been another lindros or fluery, this time we keep all our young players. i give him credit for that but i do not think he is one of the best coaches in the league. he has been outcoached a number of times this season and all series long. joejoe i disagree. he is far form one of the best coaches.

Big time. All of them. I don't mention Mara and Backman because they are not supposed cornerstones. The power play has been an open sore since day one, and no one has had the will or the balls in the coaching box to force either personnel or set up/design changes. Hollweg took a penalty in the Montreal meltdown that cost the team dearly. Tonight he did same. Obviously no coaching has made any impact on his understanding that actions like that are intolerable. And yet any fan who has the audacity to suggest that perhaps the current head coach might possibly not be the best man for a very big job is routinely called a moron. Stupid is as stupid does, Gumps.

Jagr did all he could and i love him for this but he can only do so much. King had to be better this game... the rangers did not deserve to win that game.

Renney wants shots on net from the point with guys in front. but Jagr wants the puck to him on the right halfboards, because HE wants the assists, and he wants to fancy dan it on the perimeter. there is one person to blame for the piss poor PP setup, and that is jagr. the Ranger PP setup is what JAGR wants, remember the verbal sparring last year between him and Renney over that?

Hank - unacceptable game. Jagr - monster, but it takes a series like that to win Stanley Cups, not a game. Shanny - just go away, sorry. Straka - Finish!!!!
