I think it was said multple times 1 or 2.

Tuch helps his line Cozens can hold his own... But after that no one on offense has any kahunas

Guys that skate hard & forecheck are more valuable to winning games than adding someone to “tussle after the whistle”
That barely matters- if at all

There a big difference between being tough,
and being tough to play against
They aren’t necessarily correlative

Just a matter of time until he's 4C.
- Lunaion


Asplund apparently couldn't handle 4C .

Too tiny perhaps?

Facts are stronger than capitalizing written emotional opinions

Ryan Reeves playing 10min a night is absolutely not why the Rangers won games last year
There isn’t a correlation
It’s laughable to even suggest it

Would kill you to admit he's been one of their best players so far?

I have been saying for years the Squad needs "Team" Toughness up and down the roster, that means everyone finishes checks, everyone throws fists if they have too. We don't need a goon on this team, those days are over.

now if you can get me a Tom Wilson, Marcus Folingo, Maybe Reeves I will listen. At least they can drop the gloves and score for you.

- hehateme


Agreed with team toughness...no backing down. Learn it now boys.

Now if you can find me younger versions of those guys you mentioned, I am all for it.

I didn't say we need tough guys for the 3rd time... We need guys who can play as well as bang bodies.

We currently have 5 guys like that and 3 of em are on D

U specifically mentioned “tussling with Tkachuk after the whistle”
Bringing someone in to do that doesn’t matter in terms of wins & losses

I don’t wanna be your friend
Or Washed Ups friend either

I have friends in real life & idgaf about random old men on a message board

A 10min a night 4th liner doesn’t make much difference at all, and that’s a fact
