[LOFIN]

Is kravtsov really in Russia? Wtf

Chelyabinsk. Today.

Don't have a cow, man.

He was at traktors game today

 

[Fitzy]

Would guess that one of Gauthier/Goodrow takes the 2RW position.

Of course if Strome has some sort of 'clearance' it could change a number of things.

 

[CLW]

Kravtsov really screwed the pooch. The Rangers would have loved nothing better than for him to knock it out of the park and dominate in every game he plays in. Instead he runs off at the first tiny bump in the road (counting after he returned as a reformed character after running off after hitting the first little bump in the road the first time).

 

[jay from jersey]

Is it possible Krav comes to the lineup?

Not from Russia, odds are he never wears a ranger jersey ever again

If Strome is cleared, I'd put Chytil on that RW.

Lafreniere Zibs Kreider
Panarin Strome Chytil
Blais Barron Goodrow
Hunt Rooney Reaves

it's a solid lineup. Even when Kakko comes back I'd drop Chytil to 3RW and Goodrow to 4LW. I hope Goodrow is not forced into the top9 just because of his contract.

 

[Fitzy]

Well Duhmet I agree but I think you can do Goodrow-Barron-Chytil if it comes to that and Barron forces his way in.

Blais will be just fine on the 4th when everyone is healthy

 

[WojtekWolski86]

He's been here for a couple months and already hates the media

I think Blais deserves it more than anyone to be in the top9.

I think it's extremely unlikely we see Goodrow on the 4th line anytime soon.

I'd like to see Blais jump start Strome + Panarin 5 on 5. They need someone to cause havoc on the forecheck so they can east west in the zone.

Which is quite the eat crow statement because I laughed at the thought of Blais on that line after the trade.

 

[KevinFinnerty]

Kravstov pissed me the hell off just now finding out he went to Russia. WTF is wrong with this kid instead of working his ass off to get back in the lineup he goes to Russia to get coddled. I’m Russian and I hate that he did that shit.

 

[duhmetreE]

I think it's extremely unlikely we see Goodrow on the 4th line anytime soon.

I agree but it makes sense. His strengths are still realized there though. Play a strong cycle/forecheck/grind it out game at ES. PK. be leaned on late game with a lead

 

[Harbour Dog]

Lol, Kravtsov doing all the classics. Looking forward to the 'change in work ethic' bit again; that one slays.

 

[NYRangers0723]

Kravtsov really showing how dumb of a decision it was

Agreed although I’m starting to think he just wants out of NY regardless

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

I thought the LTIR was seven days with IR having no minimum requirement?

IR = 7 days
LTIR = 24 days or 10 games (whichever comes first)

 

[SlingshotVv]

Kravtsov really shot himself in the foot here. Here ya go, first top six call-up, hop on a line with Panarin three games into the season.

but no. Had he even reported to HFD? Whoever advised him on this should be fired.

 

[LORDE]

Kravtsov really showing how dumb of a decision it was

Didn't take long did it?

Although many (all?) felt this was a dumb decision from the start.

 

[LORDE]

Is it possible Krav comes to the lineup?

Not on this continent soooooooooooo... this is going to sound like I'm done with him but...

-dial tone-

 

[Rangerfan4life90]

Kravstov would have very likely been the callup, ironically.

 

[Daves a mess]

Kravtsov really showing how dumb of a decision it was

Epic stupidity from this guy. He needs a spanking. And not the kind that @EdJovanovski may offer.

Can't believe Millstein didn't send a car over to Chuck E Cheese and smack Vitali with his own cotton candy.

 

[tomobson]

Kakko was losing too much weight playing on that second line so he needs a cheat week. He's better when he's bigger.
