Impressive 7-4 win by the Rangers over a very good Saginaw team. Nice to see Missile with a good bounce back game.
I do agree about where the Rangers could finish, but I'm still on board on trading Swick and Ando. Unless you have a team that's somewhat projected to make it to the 3rd round then at least do a soft sell...never ever buy to enhance mediocrity. Which has been an issue here for too long.You know, we’re doing pretty good so far this year. I said early on that in this western conference, in what is a rebuilding year, we’d have to try really hard to miss the playoffs. It looks like that may be the case.
I was all about missing the playoffs or barely getting in. And we still might be in that boat. But instead of a lottery pick, or a pick in the top 5 or 6, it wouldn’t be all that bad to finish in the middle of the conference, give someone a rough go in the 1st round, and draft in the middle of the 1st round somewhere. You know, about where we selected Reid and Romano?

Agree, 100%. If we are going to make a little noise in the playoffs, by saying that I mean, take a team to six or seven games in the first round. I think we need to do that after having sold off Swick and Andonovski.I do agree about where the Rangers could finish, but I'm still on board on trading Swick and Ando.

Hopefully Chrenko reports next year. But make no mistake, Pobezal will also be a valuable piece for this team next year should he report. If this team is to be top shelf in 26–27, it stands the reason that we will be very good next year also. Looking back on the 07-08 season, the last time we hosted, the year prior (Steve Downie year) was a very good team that went deep in the post season. That run went a long way in the development of our 07–08 team.Chrenko 2007 is who we would much rather prefer to come over vs Pozebal 2006. If both come great but getting that 2007 over next year would be huge for mem cup year.

A deep playoff run next year will only strengthen the development of this team for the following season. Pobezal will hopefully contribute to that.
Next import draft, we should draft an 08 player. Then hopefully, Chrenko and that player will be on the roster in 26–27.
