[I Eat Crow]

Great idea by Buchnevich

Another great pass by him.

 

[Loff]

Buch is Gretz now.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Buchnevich has turned into Gretzky

 

[will1066]

Staal: I better give the puck to Fox

 

[offdacrossbar]

Isles appear disinterested

Same as brett howden

Brendan smith does nothing for me

Wayne buchnevich in da house

 

[PuckLuck3043]

The Rangers top 2 lines are going to score - A LOT.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Fox looks really good.
Howden hasnt taken advantage of his linemates.
Lemieux needs a new stick
Morrow looks ok too

 

[Kords]

Kakko needs a better Center. I hope my son Fil fits the bill, cause I don't see it yet with Howden. Also Buch is living his best life with Panarin and I love it.

 

[offdacrossbar]

Buchnevich has turned into Gretzky

Haha i just wrote the same thing

 

[will1066]

Buchnevich has turned into Gretzky

I went with Adam Oates but ok lol

 

[Kovalev27]

i've seen more 1-timer setups in this game than i've seen in the last 10 years of watching the Rangers

Looks like NHL94 out there

 

[Fitzy]

So if that top line starts to click the next step is finding the right combinations for Kakko and Kreider.

Howden looks alright tonight but there's still the case that Strome might start the season as the know-what-youre-gonna-get 2C.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Zibby has been the weakest link on that line so far
Buch looks great

 

[Fvital92]

Staal: I better give the puck to Fox

Smart guy.

 

[Machinehead]

Why is Brett Howden?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Buch looked amazing that period. Mika was fighting it, but if Buch can look like that, this can be a top 5 line in the league.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Kakko needs a better Center. I hope my son Fil fits the bill, cause I don't see it yet with Howden. Also Buch is living his best life with Panarin and I love it.

Right now to me atleast Strome might be the best option if Chytil doesnt make it his.

 

[Leonardo87]

Buch taking on that 1RW spot like a champ. Loving it.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

He's above average for sure, but that's not a big part of his game.

Yeah no biggie. Hence why I want him on the first line with Panarin and Zibby, he’d be a monster in the offensive zone.

 

[will1066]

Fox is impressive AF

 

[FireGerardGallant]

"Buch isn't the right choice for Panarin and Zibs"

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

I’m disappointed in all the hate on 48s stick. I think it looks marvelous out there.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Why are people sh!tting on Howden? He's what a whole 21yo? He plays a solid yet unspectacular game. He's a good #3 center.

 

[Levitate]

Would like to see Kakko with some vet linemates...that said he's setup at least two fantastic chances that his linemates couldn't finish.
Howden just doesn't seem to be doing much out there, Andersson is doing more and he's centering scrubs. Kravtsov still looks like he is moving at KHL pace sometimes. Some good plays, some little bit slow plays, would also look better with some more strength eventually.

I like Fox...he's such a different player than someone like DeAngelo even though they're the "same type" of player. He reads and sees things so well and is so patient while DeAngelo is more up beat push the pace quick decisions and keep the other team on their heels. I think in theory there'd be room for both of them but I'm not saying it'll happen.

I would like to see namensikov get a chance. He can play center
