KK….former #2OA, in his 6th season….career season highs of 18g and 40 pts, 2 years ago, trending down….massive BUST. They should be happy with the draft picks lol…

Wow - for some reason I thought he was a 2nd round pick, not 2nd OVERALL.

He really has been underwhelming in that case.

Edit: I think he should improve playing for Seattle. But they do indeed have a lot of middle 6 forwards on that team.

Thank you blue jockets really did us a solid

 

[StrikingDistance]

He hit 40 pts once! 2 years ago lol….bust. This is just another PoolParty-type guy…

Good trade for Seattle right now of course..they are a bad team with cap room and ice time for mediocrity.

It’s addition by subtraction for the Rangers. Bust + malcontent=untenable. I expect some more moves to be honest.

Welp, bookmarked your post. Let's see how he does in Seattle. The pedigree is there, maybe under utilized, or whatever...I don't watch enough Rags games to have any insight on how he's been treated except the last 2 weeks. Maybe square peg - round hole over there?

You know it has to be bad if he went public with it. Given what has transpired over there, I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt.

The Fall of NYR has been enjoyable for sure...

6th season…his benefit of the doubt has expired.

Rempe ejected for an illegal check to the head against Dallas. Jumped into it too

First game back up. Good job you oaf.

 

[Random schmoe]

That was a mind-numbingly stupid hit by Rempe. It would so obviously be boarding to begin with, and then he put the elbow up on top of that.

 

[trick9]

For Rempe, the end is near. 6-8 now and the next time it's double that. Time after that it's 20+ and KHL-bound likely.

 

[DWGie26]

This is great! Of course Rangers fans are saying it was a hockey play, and that NHL hates the Rangers. The whole shit-show is just fun to watch!

Kings lose 3-2 to the Predators today.

They won't be happy coming into Washington tonight.

Oof

Interesting that they started Kuemper instead of saving him for us.

Oof

I "miss" the countless Leaf fans bragging how fast Matthews would hit 900+ with countless 70+ goal seasons disregarding the fact that he had missed more games than Ovechkin in 1/3 the time

When you think about how the Chicago fans roared Ovie's name when he hit 800, even as he embarrassed their team, it's clear real hockey fans know and appreciate the magic of his run. Those Leafs fans are just so jealous. They have the biggest market but no nice things.

He can go straight to LNAH and fight other goons. I doubt any KHL team would sign a player only good for injuring others.

The Rangers are godawful. The East seems to be full of really mediocre teams this year.

Kochetkov (goalie) is the only player with 2 points in the NYR CAR game

everyone whines about Wilson but don't pay attention to the fact that he changed his game

rempe is nothing but a 4th liner who just hits dirty.

Wilson was always a top 6 guy. Remke was never.
