Rangers Captain J.T. Miller Unleashes After Bruins Blowout: “This Should Make You Want to Puke”
The New York Rangers’ locker room was filled with grim faces and heavy hearts following Saturday’s 10-2 drubbing at the hands of the Boston Bruins. Not one to mince his words, Rangers captain J.T. Miller expressed his disgust with the performance, describing it as “as bad as it gets.”
Miller’s Blunt Assessment
“The only thing that matters now is this should sting,” Miller said, his usually jovial demeanor replaced by a stern expression. “This should make you want to puke, and then respond tomorrow and the next day.”
Miller’s blunt assessment was echoed by assistant captain Vincent Trocheck, who lamented the team’s recent slide.
A String of Setbacks
The Rangers’ third consecutive loss kept them second-last in the Metropolitan Division, tied on points with the New Jersey Devils but having played two more games. The Rangers’ struggles this season have been well-documented, and with each loss, the pressure mounts.
In net, Jonathan Quick yielded six goals on 20 shots before being pulled for Spencer Martin, who didn’t fare much better, giving up four goals on 14 shots.
Miller’s Call to Arms
Miller, however, was quick to shift the focus to the team’s next game. “The only thing that matters is a response,” he said, his eyes burning with determination.
And respond they must, starting Monday night against the Seattle Kraken. You can catch that game streaming on Sportsnet+ at 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT.
