So apparently word is that Kakko is going to be scratched for game 6,

If this is true, it makes me think his time with us is over and we trade him,

What would a Kakko and Nils offer look like to get a center?
 
Or we should fire our moron coach.... Cause... That's f***ing idiotic.
No, no, no... Listen, in this series you cant win by dominating play. It's gritty players like Reaves that win the games. Look at the work he did in his first 2 shifts in game 4. Absolute brilliance! The way he got smoked by Bogosian twice, causing a goal and a penalty just set the tone for Rangers to do their thing in games 4 and 5.

Wish the bottom 6 could be
Reaves - Reaves - Reaves
Glass - Reaves - Reaves

After reading your first sentence I thought you were going to be the EdJovo of Reaves. Phew

Completely brain dead and indefensible if it happens.

Would be some real galaxy brain shit to break up the kid line after already cutting their minutes. After the stretch of Canes G6 to Tampa G2.
 
This is not the face of a player being scratched tonight. It’s the face of a guy who is about to score.

You're on drugs if you think someone is trading you two 1sts and a young top 6 center AND another piece for a soon to be 31 year old one dimensional winger that won't go to the middle of the ice who also has an 11.6aav and would control IF a trade could happen with his nmc. Come on...

I’m quite sure if Panarin was on the open market his return would exceed Eichel’s.

First of all he can't be on the open market with a nmc and him actually wanting to be in my as opposed to eichel who wanted out, and secondly why would a 31 year old winger with an 11.6m cap hit return more than a 25 year old center w a 10m cap hit?

Cause Panarin is substantially better and likely to remain an elite player for a while?
 
What do we do with Copp? Re-sign or let go to UFA or re-sign & trade or trade before deadline for some small return?
 
So anyone that tried to defend the idea that kakko wouldn't want to sign an offer sheet this summer with another team might want to rethink that after he was scratched tonight. I think both parties may need a fresh start at this point. Kakko for dach and both teams move forward.
