I mean I’m more interested to see what he can do than see Brodzinski and Pitlick out there. That’s the bar. It’s a low bar

Ehh I’m not seeing it.
Adam Clendening hype was worse.
Edstrom is a serious prospect as evidenced by his callup. That’s a lot further than most sixth rounders get.
Hopefully, Chytil will be back soon. The Rangers are a better team with him than another player acquired before the deadline.

Depends on how the rangers value kuzmenko. My sense is he's a one dimensional shooter/scorer. But I'm not very familiar with him. A first and Perrault is a fair price to pay for a young top line player, for sure. But is kuzmenko that guy?

I would consider it. Over 8 years that's a 6.25 hit. Real nice.

NHL rumors: Rangers, Flames discussing possible Kaapo Kakko trade
The New York Rangers and Calgary Flames are reportedly rumored to be in discussions about a Kaapo Kakko-led trade.

Well i doubt this. Anybody know if this dude is serious? At the bottom it says he covers the Mavs and MLB. I don't trust it but it's something to discuss.
And interesting it's the Flames...
Maybe the author visits our little corner of the web, like Larry.
Pretty sure the article is sourced from a BS site that sources it from an even more BS site. GarbagioNHL rumors: Rangers, Flames discussing possible Kaapo Kakko trade

I doubt the Rangers are shopping Kakko. He’s young, cheap, fast, defensively responsible, and they are already very thin at RW.

Kuz is not an established top line player. He's also not young. He turns 28 next month. His first season was last year and he did have a great year with 39g and 74pts. This season he has regressed tremendously to the point where he's been a healthy scratch recently.
Giving up a first let alone Perreault for him, just go rid the team of Goodrow would be a terrible move.
Why would we load up on Hanifin going into the playoffs? He has 8 points in 27 PO appearances. Doesn’t look like a postseason performer to me.

Are we talking about the same Kakko? I agree he's probably not on the block...yet. However, he's never been accused of being fast.

Giving up 2 first round picks for a guy being benched obviously seems dangerous but why exactly are you saying it is awful? The guy does have some impressive hands. He undressed Vince last season with a through the legs move. I know he is basically a no contact player but I do not know much about hi outside of his highlights.
I do not know if they are actively shopping KK but if he was asked for in a trade I'm sure he would be available for the right price. His trade value has not grown in his 5 years. If anything it has declined.

I have a hard time believing they are trading Kakko to Calgary. My reasoning is they aren’t a fit for us in a mid season trade. Kakko coming back improves us, our record with Kakko and without him is surprisingly noticeably worse since he’s been hurt.
Do I want hanifan? Sure. But I doubt the rangers, being number 1 in the league, are about to trade both Kakko and Lindgren to acquire him. Lindholm shouldn’t cost Kakko either.

Did anyone actually read the article...the supposed trade is Kakko AND Schneider for Tanev & Ruzicka. LOL.
AND a 2nd rounder from us

I read it. I literally wrote “I have a hard time believing they are trading Kakko to Calgary”
Unless you are agreeing with me. In which case I’m glad we are on the same page lol
Untouchable means for no price. Laf I would agree with. Chytil and Kakko I'd disagree, those would simply be selling low, and I'm against that in principle, but selling low on andersson got us Cuylle.
I actually dont think Kakko is as bad as some posters are screaming. I think he's an upgrade on wheeler for the first line.
I think Chytil should go back with panarin, and that should balance out our 3 lines fairly well.
Heavy hockey isn't just dumbasses tho...
We have plenty of heavy. Trocheck/laf/trouba/miller/lindgren/wheeler/cuylle/Kakko (when he gets back)
are all players who have games that thrive in the playoffs.
Perry is an absolute shitheel who I dont want part of the team (and I'm not even considering what ever issues have him stepping away from the hawks at the moment).

The guy that got kicked off one of the worst teams in the league for his conduct?
Yeah sounds like a great addition
I dont even care about that. Perry has one skill, and thats agitation, he's terrible defensively, he's terrible offensively. He's worse than goodrow and bonino. end of story.
