NYR/CAR 1/28 Review: Well, At Least They Didn’t Lose a Heartbreaker This Time – Blueshirts Shutout, Embarrassed & Exposed By a Real Stanley Cup Contender, The Highest-Paid Forwards (Mika & Panarin) Absolutely Atrocious; Trocheck & Kreider No Better, Lateralette Keeps Pissing Points Away with Maddening Line-Up Decisions, Fourth Trio = Best Line, No Accountability, CZAR IGOR Gives All; But Can’t Win If You Can’t Score, M$GN & More

Greetings and salutations everyone and welcome to another blog here on BlueCollarBlueShirts.com. Well, at least this one wasn’t a heartbreaker.

Heck, the game was over at just the 56-second mark!

Ugh.

As we all know by now, the Rangers, who were the worst team in the league during the final six-weeks of 2024, pulled a 180 once the calendar flipped to 2025.

(After Tuesday night? Then they have now pulled a 360!)

Outside of a January 4th loss to the Washington Capitals (7-4) and the Blueshirts had seemingly turned it around a bit throughout the month, as they hadn’t sustained another regulation time loss until three-weeks later, when they lost last time around, that gut-punch 5-4 loss to Colorado (January 26th).

In addition, and the Blueshirts, who have sustained multiple losing streaks throughout this season, hadn’t lost two in a row in 2025 either.

That all changed on the evening of January 28th.

Without question and this 4-0 embarrassment, as doled out to them by the hands of the Canes on Tuesday night, was pretty much like any other loss from the end of 2024 – and where at their worst – their rock bottom – the Rangers only won four of nineteen games – and where all fifteen of these losses during this stretch were of the regulation time variety.

In short, then Tuesday night was beyond brutal – and even more so when you consider the fact that many of the teams that the Rangers are chasing for a wild-card berth – the Canadiens, the Bruins and the Lightning – all lost too.

Making matters worse than that?

The fact that the Islanders were able to throttle the Avalanche, 5-2, as Lou Lamoriello’s team are now 2-0 in the Tony DeAngelo era – and where the former Rangers’ defenseman picked up an assist in the victory – which also means that DeAngelo scored more points than every Blueshirt combined on Tuesday night.

And speaking of the word “points,” then the Isles, with a game in-hand, are also only one-point shy from the Rangers in the standings too:

As you may have noticed, then I’m publishing this GAME REVIEW blog way after the fact.

Between working back-to-back double-shifts at the real j-o-b, coming off of the flu and just feeling deflated after watching Tuesday night’s tilt – then in a rarity – I favored sleep over the Rangers!

But had they beaten the Canes – then I’m sure that a feeling of jubilation would have propelled and inspired me to write once returning home from work at midnight.

Instead, and the Rangers’ pathetic performance just drained and exhausted me to no end – and where like Mika Zibanejad on a power-play – I just crashed once returned home.

But hey, I’m here now – but I also won’t prolong the pain for you either – and where for some of you – perhaps this pain is already numbing – as we’ve endured such Rangers’ induced agony many times over this season.

Heck, let’s face it – we’ve endured a ton of hurt throughout our Blueshirts’ fandom!

I’ve brought up this following fact/stat a lot throughout the years:

CZAR IGOR, and ever since his NHL debut from January of 2020, leads the league in most one-goal allowed games.

As it usually goes, then the Blueshirts’ defense has an early brain-fart, the other team scores and then CZAR IGOR goes on to shut down the opponent for the next 58-minutes or so.

Reader Chuck P. did the research for me after my last blog posted (the loss to the Avalanche) and reported back that during this season, the 2024-25 campaign, and the Rangers have allowed nine goals within the first ninety-seconds of a game.

Tuesday night marked the tenth instance of such an occurrence.

(Another stat for you fact checkers? Then I also believe that the Rangers have given up the most goals within the last ninety-seconds of a period too – empty-netters excluded. Someone get back to me!)

The Rangers, in their biggest litmus test yet, especially even more so with Mikko Rantanen and Taylor Hall now in Carolina, once again allowed an opponent to score early – and as Andrei Svechnikov did at just the 56-second mark following what else – another dreadful defensive display from “The Breadman” himself – and another freshly baked turnover too.

In other words, and against a team that you really don’t want to find yourself trailing against, and the Rangers were already down 1-0 before most Blueshirt backers could place their bottoms on their seats at Morgue $quare Garden.

Following the early goal allowed and this game soon felt like any other contest where CZAR IGOR saves the day.

For the next 38-minutes or so – and it was the CZAR IGOR SHOW – and especially during the second period when the goaltender made a bevy of jaw-dropping denials.

You could feel it in your bones – as despite the Rangers’ inability to score, then CZAR IGOR was going to will them to victory until they were able to.

So much for that.

With just 31-seconds remaining in the second stanza and there was Andrei Svechnikov again – this time laughing as he scored his second goal of the game – as just prior to the goal – and Trocheck muffed a breakaway in the most insane way imaginable.

What at best could’ve been a tied 1-1 score heading into the intermission – or at the very least – a game still featuring a one-goal deficit; instead, the end result was a net positive two for the Hurricanes – ergo, their now 2-0 lead as the two teams headed toward their respective locker rooms.

The Rangers, now down by two, and where every point in the standings is precious, just gave up when the two teams took the ice for the final frame.

It only took two-minutes and thirty-seconds for the Canes to put the Blueshirts out of their misery – and where Carolina doubled-up their goal scoring too.

Sebastian Aho only needed 64-seconds to put his team ahead, 3-0. Come the 2:30 mark and Seth Jarvis put on the finishing touches with his 4-0, bad guys goal.

The next 17:30, the final 17:30 of the game too, saw the Rangers doing their “Terry Schiavo On Ice” routine – as there were no signs of life – sans one lousy Zibanejad breakaway – and where of course – he didn’t score on it.

Zibanejad, who is now 1-11 on breakaways this season (and the one scored was against an empty net) – and where it feels like he’s 0 for 67856756786785785678578567857855 too – remains as the biggest albatross and anchor on his team.

Hell, he’s the freakin’ Titanic.

Furthermore, and with his inability to ever capitalize on these wide-open holes – and it makes you wonder how the new father ever impregnated his wife in the first place – as he never scores on the ice anymore.

The Rangers’ recent winning streak, now a thing of the past, can now be looked back upon with hindsight – and where really – it was CZAR IGOR and the fourth line who did a bulk of the heavy lifting throughout it.

That didn’t change on Tuesday night – but it’s also what I’ve been saying for years on this site:

“While it’s great for [insert random fourth liner or the entire line here] when they are the best players on the team, it’s not great for the team themselves. The top stars must show up!”

When it comes to CZAR IGOR, then you could argue that the soon-to-be highest-paid goaltender, and despite his excellent showing in this contest, was once again out-played by the competition.

But of course, and the Rangers also let Frederik Andersen off of the hook too.

Andersen, who feels like he goes on the injured-reserve for six-weeks following every other game played, had his best game of the season on Tuesday night – which only leads more credence to the adage – “THE RANGERS’ WAY!”

While he didn’t face a high volume of shots (22 saves), but when he was called upon, then he made several big saves throughout the sixty-minute affair.

The Rangers also made it easy on him at points too, including Trocheck failing on a breakaway, Mika doing his daily acts of nothing, Lafreniere missing nets, an 0-3 power-play, a three shot on goal third period, and of course, Kreider being unable to put a puck, one inch away from the goal line, into a vacated net.

Providing more proof to the lack of a Rangers’ effort in this one, then, and if you can recall, when the Blueshirts posted their best wins of the season, in back-to-back victories against the Devils and Golden Knights, then Lavy’s Lot blocked 22+ shots in each of those contests.

In a game where the Rangers were in their own end throughout – and against the heaviest volume shooting team in the league too – and they only managed a meager seven shot blocks.

Carolina more than doubled-up this output, as they totaled fifteen shot blocks of their own.

It’s a little stat like this that’s most telling.

Fox, Schneider and Borgen blocked two shots a piece.

Matt Rempe was the only Rangers’ forward to block a shot – as the FAT CAT primadonnas couldn’t be bothered – and where if it wasn’t for CZAR IGOR, then guys like Trocheck (-2), Lafreneire (-3), Panarin (-3), Zibanejad (-1) and Kreider (-1) may have finished with negative ratings of -10 or worse.

Also after Tuesday night?

Take a gander at this:

Here is our 82-game mantra, which is also known as my 33-word daily disclaimer, that I post on this site after every game played:

“WHATEVER THE RANGERS DO FROM NOW UNTIL THE TRADE DEADLINE DOESN’T MATTER. THEY CAN ONLY BE JUDGED BY WHATEVER THEY DO FOLLOWING THE DEADLINE AND BY WHAT THEY DO IN THE 2025 PLAYOFFS!”

In other words, fifty down, thirty-two to go, and then the real hockey, the only games that matter, begin.

But at this rate – will the Rangers even be there for the real hockey?

I wouldn’t bet on it.

In case you missed it, then here’s where I last left off – the Rangers inventing another new way to lose this season:

NYR/COL 1/26 Review: Rangers Suffer Worst Heartbreaker & Bad Beat of the Season; “Mental Mika” Bails Out “Breadman,” Fourth Line Out-Plays FAT CATS Again, Humongous Colorado/Carolina Trade Terrible News For Blueshirts; Tony DeAngelo Now on L.I. Too, What is Chris Drury Waiting For; Still No Return of J.T. Miller, Big Billy Borgen Re-Signed; AHL Trade Made, M$GN & More

After taking their most heartbreaking loss of the season on Sunday afternoon, then come Monday and the Rangers returned to practice at their training facility in Tarrytown, N.Y.

Nothing changed at the practice – as Laviolette is hellbent on using the same five-players on a power-play that’s immensely struggled all-season.

Heck, I even made this comment on Twitter/X following the practice:

I can’t understand why this clown head coach has an undying devotion for the dry haired hippie. Lavy owes Mika nothing – and Zero Z. has had the worst stretch of his career under him. They have no history. Tell Mika to waive his NMC & take a hike to Vancouver. #nyr https://t.co/IFm9WkSmXZ

— BlueCollarBlueShirts (@NYCTheMiC) January 27, 2025

How prophetic come Tuesday – but then again – anyone with a functioning pair of eyeballs could see that Zibanejad belongs nowhere near any power-play quintet these days.

Come Tuesday morning, game day, and the Rangers held a lightly attended optional practice – and where only the non-regulars of 2025 – Jimmy Vesey, Jonny Brodzinski and Zac Jones – put in the extra work.

In his pregame remarks, Laviolette was asked about Doghouse Jones, where all the head coach said was that he wouldn’t send his trade-seeking defenseman down to Hartford for conditioning – and where he even added, “we need him here.”

I guess having an ass to fill a press box seat is very important to the clown head coach.

As far as anything else, then the Canucks had scouts at M$G on Tuesday night – and where you were just hoping that Zibanejad would go off, as a way to boost his value.

Following the game?

And the Canucks’ scouts may look elsewhere before GM Patrik Allvin trades J.T. Miller.

Here was Laviolette’s line-up for the fiftieth game of this 2024-25 season:

FIRST LINE: Panarin/Trocheck/Lafreniere

SECOND LINE: Cuylle/Mika/Smith

THIRD LINE: Kreider/Chytil/Kaliyev

FOURTH LINE: Edstrom/Brodzinski/Rempe

FIRST PAIR: Lindgren/Fox

SECOND PAIR: Miller/Borgen

THIRD PAIR: Vaakanainen/Schneider

STARTING GOALIE: CZAR IGOR

BACK UP GOALIE: Jonathan Quick

HEALTHY SCRATCHES: Zac Jones, Jonny Brodzinski and Jimmy Vesey

I didn’t see a second of the M$GN pregame show, as I arrived to the broadcast just as Sam Rosen was belting out, “OH JOE, THE MIAMI HURRICANES JOE, CAM WARD JOE!”

Okay, he didn’t really say that – but you would have believed it had I said it did!

In reality, Rosen & Joe Micheletti just told us how dangerous the Canes were – and it’s all the same old stuff that you already know – they shoot a lot, Andersen can be good when he’s healthy, watch out for Aho & Svechnikov and in a new wrinkle – watch out for Rantanen too.

GAME REVIEW time – and our shortest of the season to boot – as there’s no need to relive this horror for any extended amount of time.

However, then if you want the full play-by-play of this game, then check out my Tweeter/X feed over at https://x.com/NYCTheMiC

FIRST PERIOD

Just 56-seconds in, and Panarin, who has a lot to thank Mika for (another atrocious Zibanejad season deflects attention away from him), turned over the puck, gave up on defense – and bang – 1-0 Canes after Svechnikov’s first of the contest:

— Sportsnet (@Sportsnet) January 29, 2025

And just to show you how bad this game and effort was – and this goal, again, scored at just the 56-second mark, held up as the game-winner.

But don’t worry – Zibanejad will never lose his spot – whew!

Admittedly, the Rangers did settle down after this, but of course, CZAR IGOR bailed them out many times over too.

Following another turnover from Panarin – and Rantanen almost scored his first as a Cane – and as he almost did at just the 4:15 mark.

At the 6:02 mark, a rare Ranger highlight from this fiasco:

Riley Stillman – making his #Canes debut and playing in his first NHL game in 655 days – tries to make an early impression, taking on Sam Carrick. pic.twitter.com/sh7zsk3LiW

— Walt Ruff (@WaltRuff) January 29, 2025

This Carrick fight win was more about Stillman tripping than anything else – but more important than that – and it was another example, of many, of Carrick trying to jump-start these bums.

Furthermore?

Who deserves the Steven McDonald Extra Effort Award more than SAM “I DAM AM” Carrick?

Previous top contender, Will Cuylle, has dropped off a bit – and where of course – his decline/regression began the day when Laviolette saddled him with loser Zibanejad as his center.

Andersen, who didn’t have much to do yet, made his first pair of tough saves on a Trocheck and Lafreniere attack, and as he did with 12:47 remaining.

After that, and just 45-seconds later, Chytil had a breakaway and in turn, Jordan Martinook slashed him. Despite drawing the penalty – and Chytil didn’t take a shot – opting to pass to Kaliyev instead. Carolina then immediately touched up after the turnover and the Rangers’ power-play began.

As usual, and the man who should be deported immediately went wide on his first shot attempt while on the power-play. Immediately after, and Trocheck, the real 1C on the team, hit the post.

In a response to this meeting of iron and rubber, Rosen shrieked, “SAVE BY ANDERSEN” over the loud dinging noises reverberating throughout M$G.

End result?

An 0-1 power-play – but don’t fret – Lavy continued to use the dry-haired hippie bitch on his next two man-up attempts!

Down to 7:20 remaining, and as he did whenever he was out there, and Rempe led a rush into the Canes’ zone – and where without even looking at the stats – then I’d imagine that the fourth line spent more time in the Carolina zone than any other Ranger line.

This particular play led to Rempe shooting the puck – Edstrom getting a piece of it – but Andersen making his best save of the game yet too.

But again – the fourth line is making things happen – which is more than I can say about the other three trios.

I should also add here that when Lavy started hitting his line blender at the start of the third period – and it was this fourth line that was the only forward group that remained in-tact.

Come 4:49 remaining and Lafreniere, who can be a penalty machine on some nights, cross-checked Svechnikov – and where really – interference could have been called here too.

As Rosen was telling us how much the Canes’ power-play sucked, how their mothers have disowned them, how Carolina should be sent to Guantanamo Bay, etc – and I really felt that the Canes would score here.

However, and thankfully too – and the Rangers were able to overcome this Rosen Reverse Curse.

During a 3 x 2 odd-man rush with 1:40 remaining – and Lafreniere, like many other Blueshirts on this night, turned over the puck.

Another scoring chance blown.

We remained at 1-0, bad guys, through 20-minutes.

Here’s what I said at the time:

1-0, bad guys, after 20. 1P Thoughts:
— Another Panarin turnover leads to another early goal allowed for CZAR IGOR.
— This could be another game where CZAR IGOR, who leads the league in one-goal games since his debut, gives up one after a Blueshirts’ brainfart and then shuts…

— BlueCollarBlueShirts (@NYCTheMiC) January 29, 2025

SECOND PERIOD

Following our usual question of “SECOND PERIOD, WHAT DO YOU LOOK FOR HERE JOE?” (“Blind Canucks’ scouts Sam!”); Rosen & Micheletti then lamented about the Canes’ tough road schedule.

I’m telling you – and you can go back through years of this site too for all of the proof – but no one has loved the Canes from day one as much as Sam & Joe – which is why it was fitting that these two were welling up with tears when Rod Brind’Amour honored Rosen earlier in the day (more below).

As the Blueshirts weren’t doing much of anything, this then led Rosen & Micheletti into talking about all of the league’s top stars – including Rantanen – and where it was telling that not one Ranger was listed among the conversation.

But they weren’t wrong in their omissions either.

It was during this second period where CZAR IGOR really carried the team – but such heavy lifting was never to be rewarded.

Just 2:24 in and CZAR IGOR robbed Robinson from point-blank range.

After that, and Ryan Lindgren, who previously almost laid-out CZAR IGOR in a game against Florida (Sam Bennett), did so once again:

Lindgren has already hurt Igor this year. #NYR pic.twitter.com/TjbrKcKdpE

— David 🏒 (@DaveyUpper) January 29, 2025

CZAR IGOR, who missed time earlier this season after a play like this, was able to continue.

Heck, he even connected on a homerun pass right afterwards, but Chytil was unable to finish with his backhanded attempt against Andersen.

Right after that?

Then CZAR IGOR robbed Robinson once more, this time on a tic-tac-toe tap-in try.

Another monstrous save?

When CZAR IGOR denied Rantanen on a 2 x 0 rush.

Take a look at CZAR IGOR:

Igor keeping the Rangers in this game. #NYR pic.twitter.com/9Z2doqTUUV

— David 🏒 (@DaveyUpper) January 29, 2025

Come the 9:42 mark, when Jarvis interfered with Borgen – then this game could have very easily been 4-0 by then – and rather than as the final score.

The Rangers, now on the power-play for the second time, didn’t do anything.

Zibanejad, always looking to “one-down” himself, immediately fell down once the power-play began.

DEPORT.

However, that wasn’t the biggest failure on this particular man-up advantage.

Instead, Kreider, all alone and with nothing to do but just push the puck one inch forward – somehow pushed it right into the left skate of Andersen.

Had he lifted this puck, pushed it an inch either side or done anything positive – then this would have been a tied game.

As you all know, then I’m not a Kreider hater by any means.

Heck, I’m a KREIDER SUPPORTER.

But not even I can defend this.

This was inexcusable.

And had this puck went in?

Then Kreider would’ve tied Camille Henry for most PPGs in franchise history (116).

Once the power-play finished going 0-2, then this is when Sam & Joe spent the next five-minutes raving about Brind’Amour – and his brood too – as we then saw this:

Rod Brind’Amour gave Sam Rosen a personalized jersey before the game with the kindest message 🥹

The Hurricanes broadcast gave Sam his flowers too pic.twitter.com/KD9l5m1Ygq

— B/R Open Ice (@BR_OpenIce) January 29, 2025

After a bunch of “OH JOE’s,” and “Sam, Brind’Amour is a fabulous man,” Miller and Chytil then had a 2 x 1 odd-man rush – and despite Chytil being wide-open – Miller forced a tough shot – and one that went wide too.

Micheletti temporarily stopped praising Brind’Amour in order to criticize Miller here.

While I have no problem with Miller shooting – as this team seems inept in this department – but if you’re going to force a shot – then at least put it on net so Chytil, or whoever else at the time, can go in for a rebound.

Down to 2:41 remaining and Lindgren took a lazy and undisciplined cross-checking penalty, as he went after Aho at center ice.

The Rangers’ PK, for as elite as they are this season, blew two scoring chances here.

After Mika and CK20, the BFF, couldn’t connect on a 2 x 1 odd-man rush, we then saw this – and where afterwards – all you could do was groan and shake your head:

Not a smart play by Trocheck, goes back the other way and now its 2-0 Canes #NYR pic.twitter.com/w3P4f3HeTX

— David 🏒 (@DaveyUpper) January 29, 2025

Trocheck’s blind pass for Miller led to a turnover and just as the Canes’ power-play had expired – there was Svechnikov to beat CZAR IGOR.

2-0 bad guys.

You could argue that this was the turning point of the game – and it was – but let’s face it – the Rangers weren’t doing anything right either.

After all, the game-winning goal was scored with 59:04 of play still remaining.

Brutal.

2-0, bad guys, through 40-minutes.

Here’s what I said at the time:

2-0, bad guys, after 40. 2P Thoughts:
— In a game that really could be 5-0 Canes, it’s only 2-0 – and where #NYR have blown every chance possible.
— Kreider should have scored, Trocheck messes up a breakaway – so disheartening.
— I’d love to know the stats on what team…

— BlueCollarBlueShirts (@NYCTheMiC) January 29, 2025

THIRD PERIOD

The clown head coach began the period by hitting the line blender – but such a tactic only led to two more goals allowed.

(Kreider/Chytil/Panarin was a line, while Cuylle/Trocheck/Smith was another.)

With the Rangers needing a goal in the worst of ways, it was Aho ending such an unrealistic thought:

Sebastian Aho – Carolina Hurricanes (17) pic.twitter.com/PMYaf30ppI

— NHL Goal Videos (@NHLGoalVideos) January 29, 2025

3-0, bad guys.

Zibanejad, who didn’t have a minus next to his name yet, was hellbent on getting one, as up next featured the loser that makes me miss Petr Nedved every day doing this:

Seth Jarvis makes it 4-0 and Carolina has silent MSG#RaiseUp pic.twitter.com/QyyZuiOCvQ https://t.co/TDPzjwClkO

— Joseph (@HockeyJoseph10) January 29, 2025

4-0, bad guys.

And what was Miller thinking here too?

He abandons Jarvis, thus leaving him wide-open (after Mika’s turnover and weak defense – don’t forget that) to double-team Martinook of all people?

BRU-TAL!

Now down 4-0 – and all I was left wondering was – “when does the WNBA Liberty season tip-off?”

That’s where I’m at!

Once the Canes had this game in the bag, then they were more than content with dumping-and-chasing, while also routinely stunting the unmotivated Blueshirts at the blue line.

Down to 11:51 to go and Aho took a penalty that he probably regretted (it wasn’t necessary) as he hooked the Swedish-Iranian Rangers’ power-play terrorist.

In another example of the Blueshirts just giving up and giving their middle fingers to every fan who paid insane money to attend this game – and they didn’t even record a SOG during these two-minutes.

But don’t worry – Mika was still out there.

Whew – I was almost worried that Lavy would hold someone accountable!

PERISH THE THOUGHT!

After Rosen and Micheletti had a riveting conversation about the beards that Brent Burns and Jalen Chatfield sport (but Sieve Vagistat’s beard was never mentioned) – then Zibanejad wasn’t done just yet embarrassing himself.

Here’s the worst player in hockey, with 3:40 remaining, failing on another breakaway:

Mika is 1 for 11 on breakaways this season. #NYR pic.twitter.com/H9qLKi0Y4u

— David 🏒 (@DaveyUpper) January 29, 2025

4-0, bad guys, your final – and where praise the hockey gods – this team is off for a few days – as I need a timeout from them too.

Here are the post-game interviews – and where the two lover boys, Zibanejad and Laviolette, really came off as clueless and out of touch, as both praised the first two periods (scoreless ones) and only felt that the third period was bad:

Up Next For The Rangers: An off-day on Wednesday, followed by a pair of practices, then a Saturday late matinee in Boston (3:30PM).

The Blueshirts will then host the Golden Knights on Sunday (6PM).

Lose these two games – and you can kiss the little chances that this team has of making the playoffs goodbye.
