Will add my thoughts on the guys coming up this season in a bit, but I figured I'd get the ball rolling

How is this draft supposed to be? I know it's early but what would you guys say. Weak? Good?
I believe Ekblad is a RD, so that fills a need, especially if they don't want to commit the money to bring back Girardi.
Reinhart is a center although I don't know if he projects to that position as a pro.
Both needs of the organization at this point in time.
We won't be bad enough for a real shot at the top 3, it's just not what the Rangers do. But if we really continue our bad play, we might have a chance at the 5-10 range. I really hope we can grab Leon Draisaitl. He has size, he can score and he plays LW, which is a big need (even more with Richards bought out next season). And most importantly he's German, so that might increase interest and exposure for the Rangers over here![]()
What league is he playing in this season?
What league is he playing in this season?
Playing for Prince Albert of the WHL.
Don't know where people are getting this "we won't be bad enough to draft top 5." Have you seen this team?
WHL. But if the LW is a positional need, I'd suggest Michael Dal Colle is a better option than Draisaitl. If Dal Colle is available when you pick. He'll go TOP 5.
Yes, but I just can't imagine this team with Lundqvist, Nash and that defense (on paper) really challenging for last in the league. And really it's just not Rangers style. They hardly ever suck bad enough. One top 5 pick in 47 years is a testimony of that.
too similar to michael dal zotto for me.... same number of letters in the name. i feel bad juju.
pass![]()
Well, in a perfect world they sell at the deadline so they wouldn't have those players. In a perfect world....
