Around the NHL - Part XLIII

[GoAwayPanarin]

Jovo in shambles

 

[ReddestRum]

Celebrini has more skill sniping with his backhand than anyone on the Rangers not named Panarin shooting forehand. Funnily enough, only two Rangers have more goals in the season than Celebrini.

 

[LokiDog]

Celebrini is gonna be the next big center. Not saying McDavid/Mackinnon level, but he’ll be above all the other 21 and under high end centers that form his peer group, including Bedard. He’s going to be one of those very complete guys too. Somewhere between Hughes flash and Barkov responsible.

He’s currently point per game and getting better/more consistent as he gets acclimated. 22 games, 11 goals, 11 assists, -3, 69 shots, 50% on 300 face offs. Those 69 shots in 22 games would rank first on NYR with 3.29 shots per game, above Bread who’s at 3.24. I’d move every player who has touched a NYR sweater in the last decade for him.

We’d ruin him. We can’t have nice things.

 

[Profet]

Must be nice having a future.

After wrecking us, Del Gaizo on waivers

After wrecking us, Del Gaizo on waivers

Didn’t Cuylle beat him up

 

[will1066]

Didn’t Cuylle beat him up

Yeah, I meant him being a pest, and he did facilitate Luke Schenn's rabbit rebound chance.

[NickyFotiu]

im pretty sure every one of his 6 goals is on the PP and iddentical

Well AO probably has 350 goals from 1 spot. They still count

 

[McRanger92]

Bettman & Bezos having Brooksie leak the Tkachuk trade rumors so they could capture the fallout for the league sanctioned documentary. My eyes are open, are yours?

 

[and 99 others]

I hope everyone is prepared for a 2 goal night from kaapo kakko on the first line with matty beniers and jared mccann

Should have gotten 12M after his Vezina, amirite?

 

[Row I Goon]

I wish him no ill fortune. However, as with many of the Rangers alumni, I am already prepared for him to score against us in his first return to the Garden.

The NHL site is soooo bad

What do you mean? That's literary gold right there. People used to win awards for copy like that!

I like it actually. Kraken + Kakko = Krakko

Francis said the Kraken intend to give Kakko a chance to make an immediate impact, playing him in their top six forwards and giving him power-play time.

"We'll see what the coaches want to do there, but he's played 300 games but he's still only 23 years old. So we just think there's the potential for upside, and that's why we made the deal," Francis said.

Imagine giving your young stars the opportunity to succeed.

I'm actually shocked it didn't read "Kaapo Krappo"

For your health!

Ron Francis was a great center, more offensively gifted than Drury, so I'm gonna believe what he says more than Christopher when it comes to offensive upside.

Drury's legacy as a player was being clutch in the playoffs which clearly has not filtered down to Mika and Panarin.

 

[will1066]

Does Kakko try to make an early impression and try a Michigan?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Werenski has 11 goals already
