"Quick is a liability", "K'Andre Miller is awful": Blueshirts fans frustrated after NY Rangers lose 5-4 in OT to Montreal Canadiens

NY Rangers fans were left frustrated after their team lost 5-4 in overtime to the Montreal Canadiens on Sunday. Patrik Laine scored the game-winning goal at 3:20 of overtime, securing the Canadiens’ victory after they had trailed four times throughout the game.

Jonathan Quick, who made 33 saves for the Rangers, was denied his 400th NHL win for the third consecutive game. This milestone would have made Quick the first U.S.-born goalie to reach the mark. Despite his performance, Quick's inability to secure the win in this game left some fans feeling disappointed.

The NY Rangers’ official X account shared the game’s final score, and it didn’t take long for fans to react.

"Quick is a liability in this team" One fan expressed frustration at Quick's performance.

"Get rid of K’Andre miller the guy is awful!" Another fan said, criticizing defenseman K'Andre Miller.

"Good to see Miller and Kreider on the ice for that goal! Great job! Two big mistakes from Kreider in the OT. If Kreider isn't 100% yet, which he clearly isn't, then sit him." a fan mentioned.

Here are some more reactions from fans on X:

"That 3rd period we looked tired and didn’t seem to recover. 3/4 points on a back to back with travel? I’ll take it." a fan wrote.

"That effort, or lack there of by 20 and 79 on that game winner was shameful" another fan shared.

"Stop putting miller in high leverage situations i am on my hands and knees begging" a fan pointed.

"While the team has gotten much needed points, they still rely on the tenders way too much; Quick really deserved this win, while the Rangers didn’t even deserve the point." a fan wrote.
