I jinx players.
Kakko is ranked 2nd in fantasy over the last 7 days in my keeper league lol
Laf +?How can the Rangers acquire Dylan Cozens and Owen Power from Buffalo?
i'm not implying kakko is better. to the point at hand, we shouldn't trade laf and schneider for miller. that's insanity. this team is not in a position to compete.So f***ing what???? Do you want a list of high profile players that scored less in that minuscule season window??? Are going to explicitly say what you’re trying to imply now that Kakko is better than Lafreniere or better than those players too? I don’t get the purpose of this narrative (and yes that’s right - acquiring Kakko and him getting points hasn’t helped his new team - also in a small sample size)
FINALLY!!!i'm not implying kakko is better. to the point at hand, we shouldn't trade laf and schneider for miller. that's insanity. this team is not in a position to compete.
the bigger kakko thing is - we shouldn't have traded him. we shouldn't be trading anyone under 25. Borgen is a good player and a decent asset, but unless we're going for it... is he really a build around piece?
so to answer your Q - so what? so we shouldn't trade laf for a 32+ year old. so we shouldn't have traded kakko for a UFA 3rd pair D and some f***ing shitty picks. it's just bad business, and my hope is that seeing him flourish elsewhere will precipitate a change in how business is done.
also, maybe some of you will stop being so bitchy about when young players don't meet your personal expectations, and you'll appreciate how important it is for organizations to properly develop players and people. not you though, @effen, i know your mind is made up!
Whatever they get could be used for something else, or we call up some guys from Hartford and get to see what they got.Jones and Vesey have not even been in the lineup and they probably only bring some low draft picks so I don’t get how you conclude that trading these two would make the team more fun. What am I missing?
You move for Cozens the idea is for him to be the franchise's 1C which is a HUGE gamble. He's never played more than 17 minutes a game before. He'd be at 20+ here.How can the Rangers acquire Dylan Cozens and Owen Power from Buffalo?
Nah, it was going nowhere in New York. The issue was the timing. Either should've done the deal during the summer, or frankly in the summer of 2023, or tried to hold on to him until TDL.the bigger kakko thing is - we shouldn't have traded him.
Only if he suddenly remembers he can move his feet.Laffy at center. It could solve a lot of problems
Messier made the switch in 84. 23-24 years old
kakko has 10 points since the trade, laf has 4. but we don't care about that, just that nyr have a better record.
it's not about the player, right? it's about the team success

Garand is the cost controlled backup for the next five years. He may even have periods where he becomes the starter for long stretches.Trading with Vancouver feels much more likely to have JT involved, but I have no interest in including Schneider for an over 30 player
Chytil, Schneider, Garand, Berard for Pettersson
I refuse to pay 70 dollars a year for a reskin of a game that hasn't improved since 2005Oh we are trading Laf now?
Please go back to your NHL 25 games.
Where is the rest of this post? How can you determine it would be more fun without knowing what they would get back and quite honestly 2 of the guys on the list are not playing. There are about 6 others at least you left off that have totally sucked this year. The fun only starts when the players... and I mean everyone starts playing better.Man...imagine how much more fun this team could be to watch with 4 simple moves.
1. Trade Jones
2. Trade Lindgren
3. Trade Kreider
4. Trade Vesey
They are likely going to keep Smith and Borgen. Truth be told, they probably keep all of them cause we are the Rangers and hockey is stupid here.

Larry is high as balls on something.Uncle Larry looking like he fired up the gravity bong before that episode!
it's referencing your opposition to the idea that rangers are organizationally deficient in forward prospect development. it's good natured, i respect your opinions.Sippin coffee and catchin strays catching up with work emails on a Saturday morning...
I have no idea what you're referencing here btw.
Oh. Yeah I mean every org is full of good hockey men from Saskatoon and Moose Factory and they all have the same ideas about development because hockey's been around for 120 years and it's been 200x85 for much of that.it's referencing your opposition to the idea that rangers are organizationally deficient in forward prospect development. it's good natured, i respect your opinions.
If you’re taking the time to post and argue about the construct of a hockey team, you’re basically bitchy by nature no matter what side you happen to take on any particular issue. Myself included.i'm not implying kakko is better. to the point at hand, we shouldn't trade laf and schneider for miller. that's insanity. this team is not in a position to compete.

Imagine Jones made this pass. Hughes was right back on the ice a minute later activating in the offensive zone
