Cuylle jumping up to the 3rd line is cool. Kakko and Laf are where they should be. I’m sure none of this will last but let’s see

DO YALL WANT A BOXC posted:seems cool. first line is gonna rule. second line who knows. hope Laf has some jump in his step and Chytil keeps his steady good progression. third line is very strange. fourth line seems cool, but Vesey was a very good 5v5 player for most of last season. i wouldn't be surprised if him and/or Pitlick get time on the second line if Laf doesn't work out. Pitlick seemed to have some good wheels and Panarin likes little forechecking guys so he can be lazy. I actually think Panarin-Trocheck-Wheeler could be good if Panarin likes playing catch with Wheeler as much as he did Strome. And Trocheck can try to just dig. With Laf in the top six it’s the only option but defensive-play superstar Blake Wheeler on a shutdown line is def strange. Cuylle and Trocheck will do great in that role so I guess best case scenario Wheeler can let them do that and just focus on keeping the puck under control/set up dirty knock in goals. He lost his wheels but he still has a great pass. It could work. But I’m prepared for lots of juggling.

Reaves is incredibly tradable, there are always like 10 teams at the deadline who has gotten the “get tougher” order and will give up assets for him. It’s a pretty low risk contract except for the fact that you have to put him on the ice.

Good Soldier Svejk posted:That Corey Perry is still in this league (and likely gonna get into the hall of fame on the first ballot) while my sweet, gentle boy Phil Kessel is not Apparently he still wants to play but i like to think Kessel is one of the guys who is more than happy to go play golf/gamble and ride off into the sunset. I mean he is the reigning ironman, won his cups, made Steve Simmonds look like an rear end in a top hat (more than usual), what else is there to do?

ThinkTank posted:The NHL already walked back the pride tape ban. The right decision of course but drat talk about a self inflicted gunshot wound. Did anyone think for a second how bad it was going to look when they were inevitably going to punish a player for using pride tape?

Levitate posted:One of the worst “kicking motion” calls I’ve seen in a long time It was just bizarre, they made the right call immediately and somehow there was enough evidence to overturn even though from every angle it was a textbook legal deflection off a skate. Like zero movement. Obviously no effect on game but it was a sick goal and a real shame.

Well his lower body seems solid enough for a knee on knee but thanks for letting us know he can’t fight because he has a doctors note! Next time make sure he brings it straight to the school nurse.

Matt Zerella posted:I was nonplussed when they signed him this summer but he fuckin rules. Everyone was going "Wheeler at that price is a great signing!" when we should have been saying that about Gusty. I’m surprised to see he has bounced around the league so much. Maybe he falls off a cliff or just gets leapfrogged by younger talent but man he has been great. And for a guy advertised as classic puck moving d-man he has been really good at getting back to break up plays. Just solid instincts. Edit: also dying thinking about the last few guys NYR has put on that 3rd pairing - Nemeth, Tinordi, Harpur (who I shouldn’t mention less I summon him like Beetlejuice) WeaponX fucked around with this message at 18:45 on Nov 9, 2023 |

Mr. Kite posted:There are a few surprising teams on that list. Were the Rangers supposed to be good? Besides a couple of disgruntled Devils fan, yes the Rangers were expected to still be contenders. There core is still intact and includes arguably at times, the best defenseman and goalie in the league. They aren’t a young team anymore but besides Wheeler and Trouba, everyone getting significant ice time is in or around their prime. Or like Kreider, has done a good job aging gracefully. This year Drury hasn’t put any absolute disgusting plugs in the lineup for no reason. And the classic “new coach” boost has been very clear. There are red flags out there but if they keep banking points without their 1D, 2C, and both goalies- then the sky’s the limit when healthy.
