Surprised how Mika gets a pass around here, our top center is as pointless as he is useless.

I feel the Rangers are playing as well as they can. Look at the roster that we have. I think we overhype our players. We are exactly where we should be. Yes, the shots are not in our favor, but we are only down a goal against a real good San Jose team.

This team is trying. We are just not skilled.

80% of the players in the league woulda been in a scrum there but seems like people were confused he did that lol.

Guess he has some credit around the league, and from refs too. They just sent him on his way like a scamp. You never see that, lol.

I wasn't convinced, but I am beginning to believe you are right. All of KZB have been total trash so far, and especially with regards to Kreider could be moved. Zibanejad with his NMC and Buchnevich hasn't done enough to get a long term deal wouldn't shock me either.

This is a golden opportunity for a lot of players.

Some are going to seize it and stake their claim to be here for a long time.

Others are going to play themselves right off the team.

So with Kreider looking neither particularly fast or particularly strong on or off the puck is it possible that the league has 'caught up to' him with regards to his playing style etc? Was he just ahead of the curve in terms of where the game was heading and as more players have come in who play a similar way his point of difference has eroded and he's almost just a 'run of the mill' player moving forward?

Kreider needs a competent center that going to equally put in the hard work.
While he does disappear for stretches, unless he does the heavy lifting, Zib is a complete zero

I haven't given him a pass. I think he has been ineffective in his role as a 1C. He is better suited as a 2C, and even then he would be a below average 2C on a strong team.

Probably intentionally.
 
It's like everyone forgot Ziba and Kreider each take two 20 game vacations every season

If you cant hold them all accountable than dont do it at all. Let's put it this way, if you're working in a corporation with a team to get something accomplished, you fell behind on the deadline, and you have actually been better than some of your colleagues but you are written up for missing that deadline [none of your colleagues were]. It would make no sense. If that doesnt make sense we can just agree to disagree and I am fine with that.

I'm just not overly impressed with Quinn thus far.

Multiple times people pointed out that you literally cant hold everyone accountable in this specific manner at the same time. I kept reading past it bc I was like "k it was awhile ago, I shouldn't bother responding" but seeing you defend such a incoherent thought repeatedly for so long got me. You're wrong. If you cant figure out how to respond to the counter point then move on

Third line, but what does that matter towards Chytil? We want one of the best skill forward prospects in the league playing on the fourth line without PP time? You are happy that Vesey and Fast play top 9 but Chytil is on the fourth line? I certainly don't like it.

The comment I replied to said something about this isn't a rebuild anymore because Chytil is on fourth line this game. Howden, also a rookie center, was on the fourth line and Chytil on the third previously. Then Howden started producing so they switched. It's still the same dedication to a rebuild, it's still two rookies in the same spots, they just switched so the current hot hand is playing more. That's fine imo. If either are going to be on the fourth line for games at a time they should be sent down imo but I don't mind it in short spurts.
 
That's the problem of a team with too many character guys. No one is selfish enough to shoot, no one is selfish enough to pad their own stats and forget about the team's struggles. We need to draft a few delinquents and problem children in the next 2 years.
