Kitchener Rangers 2024-25 Season Thread, Part II

[OnlyUpFromHere]

Seriously?? They got rid of the candy apple guy??

That blows if true.

Yup, gone are the days of the Oktoberfest stands on each side of the rink... which also included the fresh beer nuts.

Believe the regular concession stands sell beer nuts now, but not the same.

Brampton and Ivankovic are currently struggling, does Parsons and Andonovski for Ivankovic and picks make any sense?

I could get around this for sure.

Hope you weren't expecting the beer nut guy too....

Catching up on some of the action form the weekend. We got to sell, this Knight team feels inevitable.

Time to sell our best players to the next most likely team to stop them so they can't win again (am I being petty? Yes, of course, but the only thing I like more than seeing the Rangers win, is seeing the Knights lose).

I would consider that deal, depending on the picks.

However, as good as Ivankovic is, and projects to be, there is always an element of risk involved, in putting all your eggs in one basket on a goaltender.

If this were a 17 year-old forward or defenceman coming back in the deal, and that player turns into Nick Lardis, that’s great, but if he does not, and turns into only an okay or just a bit better than ok skater, he still plays in your lineup and helps if he’s a middle six forward or a fourth or fifth defenseman.

But if you go all in where the goaltender coming back is the essential part of the deal, and he winds up being just OK, can you even start him if you’re contending?

No, and an informal protest is being planned because of it

I believe the protests are backed by the local Dental association!

Some times you need a little bit of pettiness in your life. This is one of those times.

Doesn't sound that great of a deal if Ivankovic is struggling.

Just the beer. Act like a nut after I drink it.

 

[bobber]

I have to ask. Who is Ivankovic? Haven't heard much about him.

17 year old goalie for Missy. He is projected to be the best 17 year old in the league. As a 2007 would fit in very nicely with Kit plans to host the Mem cup.

17 year old goalie for Missy.

Aha, Brampton!
