You think Huska would have played last night if anyone thought Georgiev could’ve handled it? Georgiev doesn’t have something to do with that shared view?

He's just not very good, I wouldn't have allowed 2 against Chicago even in my wheelchair.

sorry i think this is 100% silly and made-up
enjoy the cynical conspiracy theories, and personal judgements, if you like,
but that is not how teams or coaching staffs make gametime personnel decisions
and while fans love posting players have no trade value, that ain't realistic either
a 25-year old goalie w >100 NHL games will find takers
anyway, playing Huska was the right move,
it was a tough back-to-back given 830pmET start > flight > 7pm

anyway, i only really came here just now to mention that
Kinkaid and McKegg both out of Covid isolation
Kinkaid is up, McKegg is active, and Barron/Huska back to HWP

this part is the conspiracy theory, fun spin to spew maybe, but nonsense
"This org fed Huska to the wolves in order to preserve the scintilla of trade value Georgiev regained this week."
It is beyond delusional to compare Kaako (and Lafreniere) to Kane and Toews, who were studs from day one. It was an easy decision for Chicago to not trade the Calder winner and his center teammate who finished 3rd the same year. Obviously. Kaako and Lafreniere are not this.
A better comparison is Edmonton with Yukopov and Nugent-Hopkins. Would you have traded one or both away for the Datsyuk of 2013? I certain would. And Yukopov and Nugent-Hopkins were better than Kaako and Lafreniere have shown so far.
If Kaako and Lafreniere become busts, and I'm not saying they will, I'm hoping they won't, I want them to be great, but if that's what they're going to be, doing nothing, and letting them lose what value they have left, is the worst thing the Rangers could do from an asset point of view. Not saying a trade just for the sake of it, but it has to be thought of just in case they're two Yukopovs.

speculation about past shoulda/woulda/coulda's isn't one of my vices
with 2 full games within 25 hours, nested within this very busy stretch of games,
no matter what goalies were available, changing starters was the easy, obvious, smarter move
losing that one was no big deal, it was just a Wednesday in early December
Back to back in less than 24 hours and arriving back in NYC at 3am. Maybe an injury? Then the rangers would really be screwed. I don't think many coaches would have played the same goalie in this back to back situation. Maybe towards the end of the season and the team needs every win but not in the rangers current situation.

Saying we should have gotten MacDermid is just a bad take imo
3 mins played in a monster blowout and half of it was spent chasing around a player who didn't want to fight him

Dude does that thing have rims from an Escalade?! So many customization options on one of these sites. You must have had some insane mods installed in that bad boy to compete with Shesty's lateral movement. Unless you also have a personal hover vehicle which would be f***ing sick.

Buzz killington here but watching Tik Tok videos, especially with voice overs, make me want to grind my eyes and ears out and live the rest of my life like Hellen Keller.
I thin’ you will be able to shoot a lot higher at the deadline. Unlike most teams, the Rangers will have a ton of cap room to add pieces. If the team looks as viable at 60 games as they are now, it could get very interesting.

It sucks for Huska, but it makes sense that Georgiev got the Hawks where we had a greater chance of winning with a non-rookie goaltender in net.
If every point matters, then that's the way you have to go.

If you want to trade Kakko for one of the best forwards in the world, I’d probably omit “what, a 2nd/3rd liner putting up 0.5 PPG? 0.6?” when you’re calling teams.
