None of this would've happened if we just traded the stupid pick!
Forget Quinn, I blame Gorton. We could've been sitting back and enjoying Lundell's season in Finland if this damn organization had an idea how to draft and develop!

Dunno he's been pretty good but no luck on a few things (has setup a few good to great chances per game for linemates that haven't gone in)
In some ways this is the "downside" of having a top prospect that you don't have to put into the lineup for heavy minutes every night. They get less icetime so less pressure but then when they don't stand out all the time because they're getting less icetime then everyone freaks out.
To me he basically looks like a kid who is on the verge of breaking out but has to take that step on a team that's also kinda finding itself early in the season. Let's not discount the lack of training camp and preseason either.

WHY WOULD WE WANT TO DO THAT??!??! It is far better to continue to believe that he is not developing/stagnating/being ruined.

I'm not worried about the stat sheet when his all around game has been pretty good.
Maybe he needs to be a little more unselfish but when you put up 70+ apples in your last year in Junior...hard to say no to him setting up his teammates.

Sry we missed out viewing his name on 3 Rangers and 14 concept jerseys hanging up in one guys closet too.
At least we Laf rotating between line 3 and the bench.
He's two strappin a blue backpack like its the first day of middle school. Same backpack he was wearing on the team IG of the players arriving to MSG on opening night.
It's the god damn National League.

If you are talking about the pics of them getting on the plane , I think it’s a rookies only thing. Laf and Miller both have backpacks while the others dont. That’s my guess. Regardless Idk if it’s worth getting upset over haha

Is there anything more corny in sports than making rookies carry all the bags or making them wear a backpack or something stupid
It's nothing harmful it's just f***ing dumb

It was with the Mets a couple years back.
I mean, I wouldn't call it 'hazing' but it was a stupid rookie thing
Yea, when its 'hazing' its like hello kitty. When its a rookie being a rookie its Jansport.

Can't wait to see how he looks with Zib and Kreider. They to me are perfect linemates for him if Kreider can adjust to the right.
