Player Discussion Pavel Buchnevich: Part VI

[SnowblindNYR]

On pace for 69 points in an 82 game season. I was frustrated with him earlier this season but he's been great.

Beginning of the year, I was like Buch on the PK? That will be a spectacular failure. Wrong. In fact I feel like the effort needed to be successful on the PK he has kept in other areas of his game. If he can keep shooting when necessary vs the overpassing Buch there should be no one mad with his play. He has been a bright point in a mostly dark shit season.

Still waiting for the first forward we drafted since Tony Amonte to actually hit 60 for us in a season

Nice.

Buch's American pseudonym is Paul Buckner. Tongue in cheek play on Bill Buckner.

I got that, I just didn't know who Bikk Buckner was. I thought maybe it was more than just translating his name into "American"-styled.

Thx mate.

Has really turned himself into an all around contributer. No he's not the ideal player you'd want on a good first line, but once Laf and Kakko take the next steps he could be a killer secondary threat. That's if they decide to re-sign him of course

how much is he gonna cost ? Oh boy

 

[Bread4Life]

I love him. His game is upgrade. Wanna to see him in Olympic Team Russia (or USA), esspecialy at PK.

Buchnevich coming into his own as an all around player right as the Rangers are gonna have to trade him is just peak Rangers

Players coming into their own around the age of 24-25 is pretty normal.

Will he be the first American forward to hit 60 for us?

If we can maximize his value in a trade that's not such a terrible thing. With all the money tied up or soon to be tied up in wingers he still seems like the odd man out.

That's what you want to happen to an asset (opposed to after trading). I love Buchnevich and successful teams need players like him, but he might end up being the 'Loui Eriksson' part of a very good trade.

Remember how much this board hyped him when he was like literally our only good prospect?

Steven Fogarty is still #1 in my heart, damn it.

IIRC, Duclair was number 1, or close to it, after he had that amazing D+1 year and I think JT Miller surpassed the GP requirement for prospect status. Hayes and Skjei were on there too, followed by a bunch of forgettable players.

not bad for a 3rd rounder. Also got Duclair in that same round, he didn't do shit for us but seems to be finding his way the last 2 seasons

Believe it or not, most of the guys from that first list have played in the nhl for an extended period of time. But I remember it was a 2 horse race with buch and duclair until the later was traded for yandle. Everyone said buch would be the more complete player. They weren’t wrong
