If the condition of the first is winning the cup then i wont care. But from all we have heard a first isnt in play.
My guess is it will be a 2024 conditional first, the condition being ECF or SCF. It would look really bad for Chicago if they didn't get the potential 1st next year.
What I like here is that kids line (as well as the new 4th line obviously) stays together at least initially while Gallant can try to figure out best combinations with the vets. Personally I’d change centers while keeping these wingers duos.
Very true....we likely are also one hit away from disaster striking us. There will undoubtedly be an equal amount of running at Adam Fox/Shesty/Panarin and likely not always clean hits ....likely some late high ones at every chance.....one good hit by Devils Wood or McLeod would be worth giving up one PP opp if it means Fox/Shesty gets hurt ......they by far are much easier targets then Hughes in all reality . Make no mistake about it...that will be the early Devil game plan .
I really doubt any team can handle losing one of its biggest players from a dirty hit. Thats not unique to the Rangers. And having a guy like Reaves doesn't prevent those types of hits from happening. Not much we can do if other teams are head hunting.(Except punish them on the PP)
Who cares about how it looks for them? It's been reported many times that a 1st isn't part of the deal.
This is just wrong. Did you watch the Calgary game a few weeks ago? Rangers are as physical or even more so than most teams. They can play any style that is required. The Devils are tougher? LMAO. When things get serious come playoff time this team will be a nightmare to play against.
But if we had Ritchie, Bjugstad, and Domi we'd be so much better than Kane and Tarasenko. But Tom Wilson!!! /s
They are too small to be instigating that type of game, if they wanna play that way they'll get their ass handed to them. They'd be smart to just use their speed.
