looking like a fine young defensive winger. Not sure if he can put it all together offensively. No shame in this though. depends what the market will deem for the kid these days. Blueshirts should hold on and hope it clicks one day.....just my dime store thinking
bern repudiates the win now, whine constantly crowd, for whom OP is a cheerleader.

The kid is both coming along while being semi-miismanaged.
He is learning certain fundamentals at NHL level.
Also had to get his conditioning up from rookie yr where he went directly into pros as an effin teenager.
However, now that he is where he is, idiot coach Quinn is not doing anybody any favors, or any good [other than Howden].
KK is a beast.
He is potentially a driver of play.
He is not a generational guy who does it all by himself.
As I have said:
formula:
driver of play + facilitator + scoring finisher
can = a successful line.
The line should be:
KK + Kravtsov + Panarin
THAT will work, if it is given a real chance --- beyond Quinn.
