Uh-huh. Not going to start believing much from the sudden onslaught of new Russian Ranger fans on this board. Spare us.

it's okay cause it's all just the way it should be
Have any of the Rangers beat writers asked about Artemi's "non-roster" designation? I know it just dropped like during the Penguins game or something. Personally I just assumed he was quarantining.

It's not NYR fans it's Panarin fans or just those who follow Russian players in NHL. This topic in General Hockey Discussion was closed pretty quickly so people went here, on NYR board, to find any information or just read what people in America think about it. That's how I got here for example. But you can believe whatever you want. Red Scare is real.

Very funny, you're quite the memester, good sir.
Only I never said that I'm a Rangers fan, I follow the team mostly because of Artemi. Although I've got quite attached to a few other players over those 1.5 years. Like Fox and Lindgren.
What does being in Non-Roster mean? It doesn't seem like it frees any cap space.

If by "read" you mean "vehemently defend Putin" then sure.

Doubt it with how hard they backed him at first. Imo they wouldn’t have done that if they weren’t sure about it then
I mean, considering it’s pure western media biased Russian government bashing party here, seeing some people who actually are Russian or live in Russia providing here a different opinion is actually a breath of fresh air.
For those with binary thinking maybe it looked like this. For me it just looked like people just tried to refute ridiculous notions that Panarin's life or his family are in danger because of Putin. I did it only in one or two posts I think and then it became obvious that it's pointless. Anyway, I couldn't care less about Putin I just want to know why Artemi still isn't playing and not even on the roster anymore.

It's not when a simple response of "he's probably taking time off to care for his family" is met with "There's no reason to, Putin wouldn't do anything and you're all typical brainwashed westerners." I'm sure everything isn't as black and white as it seems but don't take us for complete idiots either.

Non roster this year usually is about covid protocols.
For example
Stars’ coronavirus outbreak complicates the team’s roster management ahead of season
Penguins' Sidney Crosby: Placed on non-roster list

No, a team needs to be over the cap to utilize LTIR "cap space." (more accurately go over the cap)
K thanks , capfriendly confuses me cause it says rangers have 4 million in space but with bonuses that’s not true right ?
Teams can lie about basically anything but they aren't allowed to lie about Covid stuff. They have to disclose it if it's covid related.

Plus it been reported by more than one source that he's skating on a regular basis. I'm not sure Covid protocols would allow for that.

Fresh? More like a rotten stench from a graveyard. Anyway, what about Panarin - any news?
There must be some truth behind the accusations if they deny him to play for so long. Should have kept his mouth shut anb not have critisized Putin's regime, huh? It is so easy to manipulate useful idiots in the west after all.

Something tells me Putin has a lot more to deal with and worry about then some random hockey player in NY

It has nothing to do with NY and he is not some random hockey player. I guess you live in USA and has no clue when it comes to Navalny, mass protests, Panarin's criticism of Putins's regime and his uniqueness in that regard? And why Putin has to deal with him if he can delegate this? In fact, that is a pretty trivial situation. Public figures in Russia who speak against Putin's regime have been besmirched and persecuted for decades. Nothing new here, Panarin was wrong if he thought it's safe to crutisize regime from across an ocean. He was mum like a fish in Russia and got too bold in USA. Now it's time to pay.

#26, the sickest of 'em all.
I would have to agree with this point for sure.
Like, I dunno. We just need to wait and see what arises. It's so easy to speculate.
My mind went to something relating to the leave/asking for the leave. Maybe they initially wouldn't grant him time away for whatever reason or some dispute relating to the duration of his absence, and he said I'm doing it anyway. But that doesn't jive with NYR releasing a statement saying they fully support him..but then again what team wouldn't release a message saying they support one of their players (unless there was some overwhelming evidence of something).
