I thought Wall really showed something. Should be the starter in HFD, but there's Kinkaid and Huska too. But I think they need to really develop Wall. He was great in college and had a bad first year in HFD. If he's back on track that could be very good for the club.

Been sayin it since he got here, he needs to create a niche for himself in the bottom six or he isnt making the team. He isnt offensive enough for top 9, isnt reliable enough for bottom 3.
I vote that the title also add that the team is also undefeated when Kreider doesn't dress.
I'd say play, but he doesn't play when he plays either.

After Wall's performance tonight, I'd be shitting my pants if I were Geo right now.
Wall settled the whole game down.

I agree on Laf. I feel like he just needs to play far more aggressive. Get those feet moving a lot more. He's got decent size and strength. He needs to show opposing teams that he's willing to dump and go get it. Until then, they're not going to give him room in the middle of the ice. We need to see more gogogo from him. and less hesitation and playing angles.
he had a similar regression before a monster finish to his college career too. He looked great tonight. Huska is going to be the odd man out but really Georgiev should be on a tight leash this year. There are other options
Happy to have Barron and Cuylle waiting for their chance. No reason in a year or two they can't make the jump for bottom 6 work to replace guys like Reaves and Blais while making peanuts.

I do think the Rangers in general really tightened up the defense too.

stars: gauthier, reaves and lundkvist.
honorable: kakko, schneider, hajek. Yes, Hajek settled down after a bad d-zone read on the one of early goals. After that he was really quite good.

We've got Kevin "The Hands" Rooney and Greg "The Leg" McKegg. 1 more leg and a torso and we can summon exodia.

I voted for
3. Kakko for actually standing out positively in a game where they collectively got shelled.
2. Nils. This was a tough matchup for him and he still pulled some straight up wizardry in the OZ. He made 3 plays that were better than the ones he got points on. The apprehension is gone and he still scares the shit out of me defensively but this was against a full NHL roster who played one of the league's best lines.
1. The Hands. No explanation needed.

Gauthier is Schroedinger's Cat right now or Gallant's Goat. He's driving the net, putting pucks on net, skating with purpose but simultaneously having no impact on the score sheet on both ends of the ice. He'll continue to get chances and ice time and looks but eventually he'll have to add some playmaking or finish on his chances to stay relevant with so many kids and vets pushing.
