I think you’re confusing consensus #1 with generational, two very different things. What a miserable existence you must live to go out of your way to troll other teams fans. Who are you mad at?

Don’t waste your time with him. He has been doing it since the draft. He is still bitter the Rangers have Laf

There's no way in hell this team sustains a 7.7% shooting percentage, eventually it has to start going in, as long as the rest of their game maintains they'll start collecting points, right now it's frustrating as all hell I know, everyone wants more production out of Ziba, Laf and Kakko , if we are not in a spot to make a push at the deadline I'm sorry but I'd probably look to move Buch, he's gotta be the next man up with the amount of youth on the wing, guys still coming in like Kravstov next plus he's due for a raise

Who knows if Kravs want to come back. It seems his last interview he is content on staying in the KHL.

He’ll come over this season or next. He’ll def be in the top 9 for sure

[quote=Kooleus]LA views Byfield as an exciting young prospect.

You guys viewed Lafreniere as some generational
So did alot of people outside Rangers organization definitely sure fire 1st pick at very least but I in your hockey genius mind 13 games is enough to label someone a bust gotta do better then that if you wanna troll a thread Skippy.

If were not ready to fire Quinn, then we have to strongly consider moving on from David Oliver and maybe Greg Brown.

Is this rationale Vin making an appearance?

You’re right, Buch could be the odd man out next year in the top 9. I could see a package including him, Strome and Jones or Nils or Robertson for a center, a good top 6 one. After the expansion draft

Oliver is on the hot seat for sure, he runs the PP I believe

You guys should go back to Jan's mock draft. I represented LA. After he picked Lafreniere I was happy to select Byfield and said that in 5 years we'll all look back and realize that Byfield was the better player. Haha. So not everyone was sold on Lafreniere. I even posted ridiculous trade offers, that we're all rejected, simply to show my point of how absurd the Lafreniere hype was. Oh well. 99% of people here have watched him 13 times plus a few junior tourneys. I'm sure you guys can spot talent...

Ive been saying it for a year that Buch is likely the odd man out because of our RW depth and because of the raise he will likely get that may hurt us in the long run.

I can see the Rangers trying to make another run at Eichel which will cost us a bit more.

Tore down an over paid veteran group that he signed.
Shattenkirk?
Vladimir N?
Jack Johnson?
Trouba at 8 mil?
Brendan smith?
Spooner for 2 at 8?
ADA?
Fast walked away for nothing?
Draft Lias Anderson?
Gave away JT!

Always digging out of a hole; need leadership!

Ok, I agree.
Why don't you (frank) off for another 4.6667 years and then we'll talk.
The amount of passion you put into trying to prove how smart you are on this site is nothing short of sad.

I kinda disagree with you on this. We got completely blown out on the Mcdonagh and Miller deal. Howden isnt living up to his potential and Names never had a chance. The Stephan trade blew up in our face. The fact that Anderson and Kratsov bailed and the way KK, Howden and Laf have been utilized have me questioning if DQ is the right guy for the job. Yes Fox, Mika and Buch have played well under him but these players are older and not teens. I know Fox was a Rookie but he was also 21.
- Brukie

Respectfully disagree.
If Nils Lundqvist continues to rise and becomes a top pairing defenseman ( very possible ), then the trades with Tampa suddenly look much better. Too early to call...

You mad bro? Go eat a pizza Tony.

If Laffreneire was in the AHL he probably have 8 goals by now, we will have the last laugh LA libby!!!!

Larry Brooks is a liberal beta male and still runs with the Miller story what an asshat. Where’s Boyle to cave his face in which would possibly make him a lot less ugly.
- disorca

Right because unfortunately too many people think ADA as a racist is true. The whole story was made up by a lib writer Adam Herman from the lib site BSB. He has since disappeared and hasn’t even had the decency to apologize for the made up story.

From the outside looking in CK20 would be the obvious choice. He has tenure, speaks multiple languages and seems well respected. Would there be someone better? The only people who would know is in the organization.

This team lacks a leader, direction and an identity which is something that is sorely needed.

Some people thought this team was going to be a contender instantly. Impossible, you have to learn to lose before you can win. Losing these one goal games sucks but it also increases pressure. Trying hard to get the tying goal. If you are losing by more than a goal, its tougher to manifest that pressure situation.

The defense looks so much better which is a huge step forward. Once the forwards figure out how to score, maybe we can get a good push for the playoffs but in this shorten season, it will be very hard.
- Brukie

No way, he talks the talk, but he doesn’t walk the walk. He was non existent on Friday night. He disappears way too many times.

- TommyGTrain

Thats ok to disagree. Nils could become a top pair D but look at what we got in return for a top pair defense man who has gone on to win a Cup and a solid second line center.

Names, Howden, Hajek and the first round pick. Would you still do that trade now??

We got crushed on that trade. When your trading your best player in McD you need to get a top prospect back, we didn’t. We got their 4th best prospect in Hajek and 5th or 6th best in Howden. We needed to land one of Foote Raddysh Cernak or Cirelli who were their top prospects at the time. Instead we walked away with their middle to bottom end guys and the great Vlad Namestnikov. Getting lucky on Nils possibly doesn’t mean we didn’t get crushed.

When I look at LAF and his struggles putting up points it reminds me of Svechnikov. He was playing in the top 6 from the start and looked out of place his first 12 games, 2G 2A and went 8 in a row without a point. LAF will be fine just needs some more time. No camp really hurt him in my opinion.

Then why did he steal the puck from that african-american player? Why did he vote for Trump? Nuff said.

That's not a quality response.
You should take your time.
Go waste more of your life trolling Tanner on whatever site publishes his tripe nowadays.

- Kooleus

Well for starters Miller's agent said the puck thing wasn't true and for the Trump thing it's because we still live in a free country where you can support whoever you want, just like how we all would have supported your parents if they had chosen to have an abortion.

- Kooleus

Ooooo I get it now, it’s the whole if u voted for Trump your a racist. Gotcha. And it’s been written about numerous times that Deangelo and Miller had a great relationship. Miller’s agent even came out and said the the stories between the two were fake news, but keep reading what fits your false narrative.
