It’s the right call.
I think some of us (including myself) were optimistic that he could come back this year, especially if he focused on building additional strength for those impacts. But this quick a set back I agree shut it down.

Ugh poor guy should probably not play again
Teams gonna pay out his contract though so just get healthy
This opens up room to make moves

What does this happen to do with Zegras exactly? They have both scored roughly the same amount of points and one is getting paid 3.5 mil more than the other. I will say it again for those in the back. Zegras is overrated, soft, and expensive and not what this team needs.

Seems all but certain that there will be a deal for a center.

Drury should be on the phone with the agent's for Bergeron and Krejci to get them both to come here.
Only bright side is that if gives the team clarity on their cap situation for this season. Give Chytil all the time he needs and hopefully he can play again one day.
Both guys will only come out of retirement to play for Boston.
You brought up stats....and so did I.

Yes, and that's worth the 5.75 mil. I thought the only person wanting that was Edjo. He likes soft players.
Yeah but people love that stupid lacrosse goal! That lacrosse goal in MSG equals more money for Dolan!
Kreider did it within the last couple seasons and almost scored IIRC.

And I was talking about Zegras specifically, why I don't want him, and this boards infatuation with him. I mentioned nothing about Kakko. You for some reason brought him up.

SHOOT THE PUCK ALREADY!!!!
Sorry -- I'm not giving up Othmann for Zegras.

The right and obvious call with Chytil. Make sure you can actually live a normal live first, think about hockey second.

It's all so tiresome
Terrible. Not just for the team but obviously for him and his health.
You brought up stats and I brought up the guy I put in the trade proposal for Zegras. Its all related. Zegras is a C, which the Rangers need now, and he's a local guy which doesnt hurt. Kakko has scored a couple goals since returning, and the last two goals have been meaningless goals in garbage time. They could both use a change of scenery.

They can probably fill the 3C role internally without giving up assets. They have some pieces available in Hartford. We already saw them struggle on the PK yesterday. Chychrun scored in about 6 seconds off a lost faceoff. They don't need a star player. Just some guy who can be responsible defensively and PK. Sean Monahan would be totally useless here. He's not great 5v5 and he won't get the PP role.
Enter Nick Bonino.

I wasn't even responding to your post. Just a general comment about this boards infatuation with him.

Better off. This isn't minor. Go back to Czechia, rest, and train again in hopes of returning in seven months from now. You'll know over the summer if he can play again. Helps them now know what they have. $5.2M, about, to add a center and wing. Two targets I am eyeing are Monahan and Sprong. Both cheap rentals.

Because he’s young, skilled, a center, a Local kid and rangers fan, and most of all, he might actually be available which other young skilled centers are not.
Monahan would be an awful fit.
So would tarasenko.
Honestly Henrique is the only rental forward who is kind of a fit.
The FO should let the next month play out before doing anything. If this team can’t put it together they shouldn’t be adding at all.

So what does this do for us cap wise? Since hes been on LTIR since November 2nd does his entire cap hit accrue towards cap space since that time?

I could care less if he's a Ranger fan and local kid. He's expensive, soft, and awful defensively. I don't give a shit if he can do the Michigan. We need a defensively responsible, hard nosed, competent 3C, who won't cost nearly 6 million for the next 2 years. Pinto is also a local kid. I would much rather go after somebody like him.

I wish Friedman just kept his gigantic mouth shut about Monahan and the Rangers because now you're gonna have to read the most insane Habs fans mock trades for the next 40 days.
