Hey! People eat McNuggets. Clearly they will eat anything. A crack gummy bear is cute, and tasty!!!
They picked the consensus players in Lafreniere and Kakko. IMO the biggest mistake was letting Gallant coach the team. He screwed up all the young guys because he refused to give them good minutes. They needed a coach who could/would work the young guys into the lineup.

It dosen't mean a whole lot. Blues weren't going to keep that winning streak for much longer. No NHL team can.

The fact is the Rangers had several top tens in a row and missed on all of them. Just because the S calls experts say a guy should go in a certain spot doesn’t mean that’s correct. It’s up to the GM to make the best selection in those high slots. And obviously the Rangers’ GM (don’t know who it was tbh) missed on all of them. That’s bad.

That was such a unique goal by Byfield. Haven’t seen something like that.

Blues are the club no team wants on round one. Dallas is shaking in their skates. The Fatass predicts Dallas goes out in round one. Eeeorr!

Is Byfield the player worth drafting high and patiently waiting for to develop? Kopitar is getting old. Byfield is sure looking like he’s the young player to push Kopitar out the door. This is exactly what the Rangers missed in their drafts. No young guys to push out the older players.
Coaches will always play their best guys (coaches want to win). They will only play their best guys young guys ahead of the older players if it means a better chance of winning. Byfield looks like a guy the LA coach will be playing ahead of Kopitar. A natural progression to the younger (better) player. Rangers don’t have that.
I think this is the year the Kings win.

You're right, it should be Minor Call of the year!

...nice to see the Kings admitting that goal should have been disallowed and Byfield should have gone to the box for 2 minutes or less...

Yes, he was drafted knowing that he was viewed as a high end talent that was going to take time to develop to eventually supplant Kopitar. Having him spend time alongside Kopitar for a season plus benefited him.
