he playing so slow and depressed passivating stuff. when he rewarded with asspoint tonight before goal he takin speed and hands rolling like from guitarman in madsolo frontstage after backstage jam not taken and so. but remember all this by he not given any huge amount of icetimes and PPopportunities going by and teammate doing them as e sitting at bench sucking his hand like after goal that was not a counted when opponent takin wiseman advise and protesting at it. after this may there no more deepler depression and thinking starting . no points for kakko and no points for grinderlafresque not either to come as their icetimestime not there a being. sorry. wasted year for kakko . if he play longer points will come how bad he anyway playing. but i see if he really trying he looking good. but he may suffering from unpointed games of his. and he see other younggun at other team getting many many minites at games an forth. may i suggesting walking around whole manhattanland if no point at game. then maybe trying harder even if minite at game at small levels. how long manhattanwalk around is? 5 hour?

Kakko has angered the hockey gods.

They demand a blood sacrifice.

Reaves must drop gloves and draw an opponent’s precious fluid to appease their anger.

The gods will then reward Kakko with their blessing.
 
First game I saw with the Rangers this year and Kakko has the same problem as he has always had, not daring to shoot. He tries to deke the goalie when he should be shooting. I don't know if this has been the case during this season, but it has always been my pet peeve with his game.

At this point it’s expected.

When you have zero points on the season your confidence is at zero level
 
It's a totally different situation from Laf. Kakko is playing well and getting chances, but he's just snakebitten. I don't like him with Strome. Strome is like the ugly kid who hung around the best looking kid in high school. He gets some residual trim and doesn't like anyone trying to move in on his position.
Serious question, how often do we see Strome making plays that put Kakko in scoring positions?
 
He has zero confidence but it’s very hard to gain it when your line mates are playing monkey in the middle with you.

I honestly don't think he looks unconfident at all yet. Who can say for sure, but his body language since October is night and day from last 2 years.

Strome has definitely been a problem but I think most of us said that last season and after a month he took off and played much better.

Agreed, even on his cancelled assist, he was one on one with the goalie and then he overstickhandled and overskated behind the net.

Gotta be more decisive and quick.
 
Kakko looking really good last night after a shitty prior game. Able to see him in person can get a better idea with his play away from the puck, and thought he was where he needed to be and had some good plays. Just has to keep it up. Had his 1st point but was taken away on a right call by the refs. So cannot be upset with that. Friggin Strome was literally on Knight’s lap for that goal, lol.

Laf on the other hand, looked meh, and has become a liability out there, a decision needs to be made. Gallant should consider healthy scratching him.
 
I feel bad for him. Sam and Joe did him dirty last night too broadcasting that he was crying on the bench after they disallowed that goal

Like how about you keep it to yourself and not broadcast that to the entire world

Joe was definitely making a joke...maybe not the best joke about a struggling player but Kakko was not actually crying lol
 
He also got robbed on a rebound in close by Knight..kid is snake bitten at this point.

The lack of production is frustrating but the plays are there. He needed a few games to get back after his injury and he looks good out there.

Aside from a couple of tap-ins, Lafrenière has been invisible. That worries me.
