Wow, Brink was already called up by those losers? Guess it makes sense being they're out of it.
 
Fox flat out refuses to shoot. If he’s not gonna shoot get him off the PP honestly.
 
And that Zibanejad one-timer just doesn't work alot. They need to make some plays down low on a 5/3 but Kreider going to the box took that away a little.
 
Sounds nuts but I’d like to see Fox off the pp next year. He just doesn’t shoot the puck.

Yes. The PP that has been struggling lately might need some injection of new blood. God forbid. Are you really ok with Fox having passed up at least 4-5 good shooting attempts on that 5 on 3? Plus, it could also help him to give him a little less ice time and rest him up a bit heading into the playoffs with 2nd all but locked up.
 
Al try using fucking common sense for once instead of just looking at stats which is what you always do
 
The power-play is getting worse because teams know fox doesn’t shoot and it’s becoming predictable
 
For the month of April, including tonight’s game the Rangers are 2/18 on the PP with the 2 coming against NJ. That’s an issue. Sorry for giving you facts.
 
Someone just needs to remind Fox how crafty he is with that wrist shot catching goalies off guard and creating juicy putbacks if he doesn't score. Panarin same thing. They're both great passers but get a little bit of tunnel vision at times.
 
Not to mention actually committing to developing Kakko and Lafreniere by putting them on the first pp unit
 
Omfg..yes let's take fox off the pp...let's have zero playmakers...no fox..who leads the lead in pp assists...let's sit zib so laf and kakko can learn how to score on the pp....2nd best pp in the league ...they are horrible...horrible
Why bother watching this team?

How many shots has kreider deflected for pp goals from fox?

Are we going to go with 5 forwards?

Yes let’s go to the extreme. God you’re idiotic sometimes. If Fox isn’t going to shoot on the PP and the PP is struggling and he’s looking worn down or like something is off with him (all of which are true), then YES. Take him off the PP and give him a rest heading into the playoffs. I’m not saying take him off forever, but get him off and giving him a breather isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
 
C'mon Al nobody said that, but they just need to keep it a little less predictable and it would be off the charts.

Yeah those black and white stats are horrible and shouldn't be used as any indication of what this team can do.
Aren't you also the one who wanted miller sent down...trouba to be bought out?
 
I can't fucking believe Kakko managed to put two pucks into the net tonight with such little time on the PP....In Fucking Credible.
Fox off the PP, no. Not going to happen barring injury. all you fucking arm chair coaches....

This. ALL OF THIS. Al just goes to the extremes. Must be super stressed at work right now. Hopefully it calms down in a few weeks for him.

A bunch, I'm not saying take Fox off the pp, just balance it out a little more with shot/pass. Keep the same guys out there.

Who are you going to replace him with?
Another forward? Miller? Trouba?

The PP is struggling. Fox isn’t 100%. Cutting down his ice time heading into the playoffs so he’s fresher isn’t a terrible thing. Once in the playoffs put him back on and hopefully the PP can get back to what it was. That’s all I would do. I wouldn’t bury him off of it and never put him back on it like someone else said.

Trouba yes. I’m ok with a defensive dman out there. Like I said, 2nd place is locked up. Give Fox a break on his ice time. Let him be fresher going into playoffs and then get him back out there on the PP.
 
the playoff games will be tighter. You won't get many power-play chances. Shoot first should be the mentality on pp in the playoffs.
 
I fully agree that Fox is clearly off....but i think it's got to do with his legs...not his shot or lack there of.
I am a proponent of sitting him for a couple games to be fully honest. But if he is playing and the Rangers are on a PP there is not a chance he isn't out there for it. It's just not going to happen.
 
He will get a game off in the last week I'd think. A few of the main guys should going into May.
