Rangers Recall Zac Jones and Tim Gettinger from Taxi Squad

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Why have the last 11 days felt like 2 months?

Pleading for someone to post up an early GDT

I imagine we’ll still be talking about Buch in 2034. It’s only like 12 years away.

Hell, 12 years ago we had guys like Redden, Avery and the ever promising Enver Lisin. Guys we still talk about.

Listen, some of us are still pissed they passed on Bossy for Duguay and DeBlois. It will be a long time.

A long time.

Man, I didn't know this and I wasn't even close to being born.

But I'm pissed about this too now.

Waive Georgie

King!

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

The gift that keeps giving

His friends call him "Jonny 'Simplex' B"

 

[BBKers]

Would Vilardi for Kravtsov straight up interest either party? Or is Vilardi now seen as a winger?

Well, I guess I was wrong @Kords

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

I'd rather trade for Kupari if we are dealing with LA. I like Vilardi, but I don't think he brings what we need.

Chytil can't even produce on the 3rd line. Why are we promoting him?

A fair question to ask would be "If we switch Chytil and Strome, would Strome still produce?".

 

[egelband]

And then Buch probably would not have been traded and everyone’s happy. Except Krieder is scoring all these goals in CO… and I’m sure there’s people who would ream management over it. Hahah. Sometimes it’s just about making the least terrible choice.

Oh. Can we please not send this thread down the COVID opinion toilet again? Hahaha.

Kreider beasting for Colorado would really drive me to eat my heart out. Yuck.
Can’t really argue too much with keeping him I think.

 

[pld459666]

Karlsson at 29 years old and a shade under 6 per for 5 more years after this one concerns me.

His effectiveness is going to be a concern in short order

 

[egelband]

I mean that’s his best friend on the team off ice too. Again not saying it’s right or wrong but they need to evaluate if they want Strome or the mystery box.

I think that they don’t have to necessarily keep Strome but the situation has to be handled sensitively. Not terribly concerned, just saying.

Yeah...and honestly, like why?? What would have happened if the NHL went the NFL way? The WJC is going south too. ONE person without symptoms test positive, and the entire team can't play.

 

[pld459666]

Robertson over Schneider on the taxi squad.... interesting

RD is on lock.

LD behind Lindgren and Miller is less so.

Jones and Robertson make sense

 

[IronBloodedLion]

Strome has produced in the past without Panarin.

Chytil shows skill, but that’s about it. It’s frustrating to see him make plays but not finish. At some point you have to start cashing in.

good chance Chytil gets traded unless they decide to give him 1 more year to breakout

he’s still young but I never understood why he didn’t start in the AHL. I think Barron will he better for it

He's proven it throughout his time here, it's not a question at all.

The problem is that everyone here overrated him, people ignored the fact that he lacks vision and hands for creativity, he has speed and height, a decent shot but he doesnt use the players around him near enough and has zero interest in slowing things down to create something. Having said all that, that just described a nice 3rd line guy, and thats ok

And that's a talk Turk needs to have with the kid. If he can focus the rest of the year on FO and becoming a defensive pest, then the amount of offense he does provide is adequate for a long term 3c. Plus his salary is right in the wheelhouse. It's better for NYR to figure that out before they trade him or re up his contract. See if he can fill that role, because 2c isn't looking like reality.

 

[leetch99]

I wouldn’t mind seeing Robertson-Lundkvist for a game or 2

Robertson and Jones likely be included in a trade and Schneider for sure won't be . This is in part a preview of sorts for them . That's how I see it . But...nobody really knows .

 

[NYRKing]

Remember when Kreider was all tools no toolbox? Well, this actually fits Chytil to a T. He has size, speed and skill. At this point it’s painful to see his lack of production.

 

[NYR Viper]

I would be very interested in William Karlsson if he was actually available.

A long time.

Oops! Typical Rangers Lol

Krieder was making impacts the first full year he was here. He had more goals in his first 2 full seasons that Chytil has had in his entire career. What does Chytil bring in terms of skill? He lacks vision and scoring touch. he is also a minus 27 for his career while a guy like Kreider has always been a plus player. Chytil has no tools and no toolbox. These comparisons are way off.
