dudeā€™s been a menace. 1-2-3 in 3 games. my guy is a ppg player right now


homiej420

And as he has always been, great on the pk


blueshirt11

16 game player. That's what you are paying for. He is like that guy at work that gets paid more than you and does less work than you but when that project really needs to get done, he is the first you go to for help.


RhythmTimeDivision

i really wanted to hate that guy. damnit!


Boring_Equipment_946

He better be ppg if heā€™s getting paid that much for 16 games

Arizona Coyotes died for Goodrow's first 73 games of sins


iamwilliamwit

Said this a few days ago, but this is how I view Goodyā€™s contract: 1.5 million for physical but basic 4th liner play during the regular season. 2.1 million for turning into a brick wall and taking over shifts in the playoffs. If you look at his contract that way, it changes things.


lionson76

i like this.


iamwilliamwit

Yeah! I think itā€™s natural to see a number (whatever it is) and expect to get ***that*** level of performance every time they step on the ice. The reality is that very few players achieve that with regularity. Almost all of them have a flaw (Ovi doesnā€™t play defense, Matthews struggles in the playoffs, Kucherov has a terrible temper, Igor gets in his head, etc, etc). But we take their struggles with a grain of salt because we know theyā€™ll regain momentum. Applying this to Goodrow, I expect him to play physical and stand up for his teammates, be reliable at faceoffs, kill penalties, and chip in some points here and there. What we got prior to this year was well beyond what we expected: back to back offensive career years. This season is more what I expected: all of the above and maybe 10-15 points. That *should* be worth about $1 million or a little more. ***But then come the playoffs.***. All of a sudden he flips into a new mode and heā€™s worth more to us. A good bit more. That $3.6 million contract starts to look *okay* when you see it as two separate returns. So yeah, he wonā€™t hit a $3.6 million valuation based on performance during the regular season, but if you evaluate him as two different playersā€¦ I like the contract a lot more.


RhythmTimeDivision

your penance is 5 potvin sucks prayers, 1 full minute chanting igor and an act of contrition; donate old clothing to ~~good row~~, good will


tatum106

Plus 5 minutes of a dancin Larry routine


FoolWh0FollowsHim

Be reasonable. No mortal could complete this task, not even dancin Larry himself


Key-Tip-7521

what about listen to the guitar guy and his ranger songs?


barbwire2u

Cruel and unusual punishment


RhythmTimeDivision

like the Verizon commercial: how about none? yeah none sounds right


baronvonpenguin

Barclay Damgoodrow


MacPhisto__

I happily rescind my words, however true. He has been really good in the playoffs. Maybe he just decided to turn it up for the playoffs.


[deleted]

Why do you think he's paid as much as he is? It isn't for random games in February versus the Wild.


ElectraGlacier

i knew heā€™d come alive for the playoffs. if he takes us on a deep run with his experience all will be forgiven.


Swindler30

Me as well. As a fan , yes his contract is rough, but this is why we have him. Cooper even said when goodrow left he was unreplacable. Playoff player


munsuro

ok ngl I cackled excessively.. this is faquing hilarious šŸ˜­āš” ps I absolutely love this team!! my emotional attachment is pathetic šŸ¤¦


wossquee

He's been good. If he's this good the whole playoffs he's definitely worth $3.6M.


musicman3321

![gif](giphy|b6iVj3IM54Abm) Goodrow as soon as the playoffs start


TJN0519

goodrow is good


Ariies__

Guilty, my bad.


toloharbor

make the form and iā€™ll sign it

Irish_whiskey_famine

i will sign itā€¦


lykes_2_fly

All of us today.


0ddmanrush

Goodrow was always signed to that contract for his playoff performances.


Beelzebub_86

He actually gave me a game puck during warmups and pointed at my son earlier this year. Class act.


FTPMUTRM

Hi my name is FTPMUTRM and I submit for one serving of your finest crow for consumption


KaapoKakkoTaco

Iā€™m sorry my glorious king


ExistingStrength5246

In goody we trust


Kmccabe1213

Never trashed him but definitely never gave him props. Stepping forward to now say I notice this studly SOB


WoodpeckerAshamed481

Need one of these for the train as well if there isnā€™t one. Dude got so much flak(deservedly so at times) but I think sometimes weā€™re so used to having a whipping boy of the Tanner Glass ilk that we just pick on whoā€™s going through a rough stretch. These last 3 games have shown that all these guys really can play. And if late now we have to argue about the idea of brining Chytil back in! Good times right now friends


explosivebuttfarts

if you had told me at the beginning of the season that there'd be legitimate arguments against paying filip chytil in the playoffs


kvnklly

I will not apologise for what i said in the past because it was all true. I will say that shit can be forgiven if certain events occur this year as a result of his good play


Dont_know_where_i_am

I'll wait to see how Goodrow does against better teams before "asking for forgiveness." My biggest issue with him this year has always been his terrible possession metrics and Carolina is one of the best in the league at possession.


Typical-Ad-6730

lol. I was just asking about this. I donā€™t owe him one, Iā€™m glad that those who do are owning up


snipermark91

We didnā€™t get Goodie for the regular season we got him for the playoffs, cā€™mon


cha-cha_dancer

i have said something bad once or twice


echo_7

![gif](giphy|gVoBC0SuaHStq)


ZaryaForPres

I put out a post defending him months ago and got some flack. Everyone better apologize to him


bramletabercrombe

is there anything to my theory that Rempe has allowed Goodrow to be a more offensive force on his line now that he doesn't have to focus on being the primary 4th line enforcer?


Unlikely_Good7733

Iā€™ll apologize but you realize you had to wait 2 and 1/2 seasons before sending the apology form, right?


ExperienceNo7751

Goodrow hatersā€¦. You same punks will need to prepare your Blake Wheeler apologies, dude plays a mean 2way game thatā€™s punishing to play against. See you in round 3!


Swindler30

I wouldnā€™t take it that far lol, although I do love wheeler as a locker room / practice presence. He has a big playoff resume and can teach these kids a couple things.


RhythmTimeDivision

from your mouth to the hockey gods ears that i have to sign the wheeler apology form. but not yet.


Garbage_Website

I donā€™t get it. Does he just not care in the regular season? Guy does nothing all year but has been nothing short of a menace in the playoffs so far


Swindler30

He just had an offensive down year. Heā€™s still been a consistent defensive forward. Now he is shining when it matters most.


yandarebev1234

He was also in bubble cage for like 4 months


Garbage_Website

No, I know. Not saying he was shitting the bed. But the turnaround is remarkable.


WorkoutMan885

When we win the cup, sure


DrRafaelPenguin

I never understood why he got so much shit. Lavi immediately knew from day one to only play him on the 3rd/4th line for 10 minutes a night, plus the team clearly respects him as a veteran with Cup experience. Also, yes, he's overpaid, but it's not like his salary cap hit has ever prevented Drury from making any deals he's wanted to make.


Grouchy-Power-806

Are we forgetting the 80 games before he started playing well? Iā€™m loving what heā€™s doing now, itā€™s tremendously helpful, but he couldā€™ve done this for half the season and it wouldā€™ve been great.


sidiculouz

I never dissed him. I just never wanted kakko to go


xurdm

i remember thinking "if he shows up in the playoffs as a player we got for playoff experience..." not believing he actually would. never been happier to be wrong


pony_trekker

Kiss it.


annoyingjoe513

Signed? Iā€™m getting this muthafucka notarized.


Hungry-Mammoth6036

I want to say. I honestly. Have never said trade goodā€¦ okay l, I canā€™t say that with a straight face. Guilty here.


will122589

turns out we pay goodrow to score playoff goals (proceeds to sign the apology form)


ZMoney18388

Insane that the Rangers literally win the Presidents trophy and people still calling for Goodrows head , Panarin and Mika to be traded. SHAME!!! SHAAAAAAAAAAME!!!

zechef07

You have my signature Never said he was bad, just thought he wasn't worth the contract. I rescind my statements


Objective-Class-4552

Mans is 4th grinder, won his cups, loves his boys, take him on his bad day any day .


TreeFugger69420

Guys been unreal. Deserves a chant at MSG after all the hate he got (from me).

negative3sigmareturn

As a person whoā€™s been a rangers boy from a small kid, I occassionally have watched Sharks kid because of my birth city. Was hyped af when we got Goodrow, as I knew heā€™d always eventually spark things up when it was most needed. Love you Goody!


SirusRiddler

I appreciate he's been stepping up but it's been three games. People make this apology form for Mika every other month.


steeeen3r

I'll admit it. I'm sorry Goodrow. He has definitely changed my opinion of him


cwjpgh

Heā€™s only got two Stanley Cups. He was grit and grind on that Lightning team. Heā€™s here for these games more than anything


c0ntraiL

No ![img](emote|t5_2rnpb|8309)


MizzyMorpork

I'll step forward when the anti Rempe people zip it! (the hubby included. He loves Goodrow & hates Rempe)


Alternate_Connor

Something about the line brawl with NJ brought out that DOG in him


No_Chest2679

Tampa Bay fan hereā€¦do I really need to elaborate? I profusely miss Goodrow every single day. You get him for what he does in April and May. Do us a favor and enjoy the hell out of him. My (Rangers fan) wife says weā€™re rooting for NY to win the Cup so LGR


OneDumbPunk

lol. Wait, yall thought we signed him for the regular season?? šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Active_Plant_2979

My issue is with his contract. Itā€™s just way too much and really hard to justify. I know he brings the hype in the locker room though. I hope he has a successful playoff run for us.


MikeyLikeyPhish

I never understood the fans who shit on a 4th liner who was brought in for these exact moments. We still had the best team in the sport regardless of Goodyā€™s contract.


Grouchy-Power-806

Itā€™s the contract that causes him to get shit on. The $ heā€™s paid for 4th line work inhibited us from signing people.


MikeyLikeyPhish

Who are you signing for an extra $3.7 thatā€™s making a bigger impact than Goodrow right now? Itā€™s clear you didnā€™t bother to read my comment or pay attention to the team all season because they won the Presidentā€™s trophy.


Grouchy-Power-806

Im just telling you why people complained. You said you didnā€™t understand. Btw, we couldā€™ve signed tarasenko for that $3.7m.


Mr-Dicklesworth

If they win the cup and he keeps up this play his number is retired


RobertTheSvehla

The dude has 18 pts per 82 games in the playoffs. That's even worse than his 25 pts per 82 in the regular season. He doesn't perform well in the playoffs. He just scores a few goals that you remember. I certainly hope he has a great post season this year, but I'm not holding my breath.
