Which literally no one has ever done. I've never met a single person on this board who is opposed to more youth in the lineup. I'm really not sure how you could even think that was the case.

Let's please relax on the young guys. The played 18-20 minutes against AHL players they all played on the PP got offensive zone starts. If any of them make it none of them will be on the PP they will play against NHL D men and most of all they will play a forth line roll and maybe play 7-8 minutes a night.
It's great that these young guys are playing well but let's not get carried away.

Calling Derek Stepan
We are spending way to much time in our own end. We need to create more on the offensive side. Please get healthy kid!!

I just joined the forum after lurking for a few months and this is the first thread I went to. Counting the hours until he's back in the lineup.

Change is good.
Stepan will settle things down
The a Rangers are really missing his presence in the defensive zone. He will calm things down when he returns! Hurry back kid!!

Did we think Stepan was this important ?
When I started the last thread about Stepan I had no idea how important he is to this lineup. We are so bad in our own end it's not even funny. I really believe that he will bring back the calm to this team when he comes back.Thoughts......

Stepan is a loss yes, but all 6 of our D are playing like ass garbage every night.That's nothing to do with Stepan.
It's clear it's the defense that's bringing us down not because Derek Stepan is out of the line up. Our top line has been amazing but not enough through out the line up and the defense is terrible. Guys look flat and kostka is awful he needs to go NOW.
The narcissism he displays and outright misrepresentation of the status quo (in order to make himself look better) is a bit annoying to read through. I suspect he got tired of the ridicule and now just messes around a lot of the times.
It;s like ok there's a slight bit of evidence to back up a statement you made but
A) it was a common sense statement that most people already agreed with
B) It's not even enough evidence to assert anything yet

more like 4 out of 6 every night...
Staal has been the best, but even he's had some off games...
One game its McD and Klein playing well, then another its Moore and Girardi playing well, then another it's Staal and McD playing well...
just everything is off

Im not saying Stepan being out doesnt hurt us, but we were just as bad defensively beginning the season last year with stepan and our top 6 D men in tact

Our top 6 wasn't intact. Both Callahan and Hagelin were missing from that lineup.

Not to mention they are scoring goals. Stepan's RH shot would be beneficial on the power play right now, but other than that I don't see his absence as being part of the problem thus far.

Don't kid yourself, centers are a HUGE part of a team's D-zone coverage. Losing Stepan effects every single defenseman on this team.
