What is this pining for Kreider?

They sucked with his lazy ass last year, too. I couldn't give a shit less what he does with Anaheim - I guarantee you he's not backchecking or hitting anyone there, either.

I wouldn't call pointing out a stat as "pining"

The Rangers have the 32nd ranked PP in the league. Chris Kreider has more goals in 9 games than the Rangers PP has in 14. That is not pining, that is factual information. I'm not suggesting that they should not have traded him or lamenting that he is gone. However, in a post-game interview last night he was asked what is different, and without hesitation he said "I'm healthy." Change of scenery might also play into his current success. Regardless, I don't think it's out of hand to bring up a former players' success in contrast to what the Rangers' most significant weaknesses are at this time.

Trocheck can't get healthy soon enough

Raddysh on the first line is terrible. I don't care that he leads the team in goals. He's not a first line player. He belongs on the 3rd line or maybe 2nd and give Laf the boot.

Another year

of constant juggling of the 1RW spot.

Sigh.

Maybe this is finally the offensive breakout they have needed

I agree 100%. Saying he was lazy while ignoring that he was injured is unfair and misleading. There is no doubt we miss his goal scoring this year

to play the balance of home games on the road.

Seriously though, another solid game on the road.

Noah Laba continues to impress and nice to see Bread and Laffy find the back of the net.

He was a one dimensional player long before he was hurt

The lack of hitting and backchecking didn't just start last year.

Quick continues to be the perfect backup

The ageless wonder...and most of you thought he was cooked threw years ago
