For all-time New York Rangers, where does Zuccarello place?

Is he traded in 10 days or given another 5 years? Might make a difference.

2 words... Bun Cook

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

A career 50-60 point player who’s been here for about five years.

Hopefully not too high.

 

[Crease]

Top-30 ish?

I think he's a bit further down. He's 27th all-time in points, and that's a metric that weighs against goalies, defensemen, and pre-WWII forwards.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Top 100

 

[Irishguy42]

Top 100

Top 1,059 in franchise history.

 

[Machinehead]

In height?

 

[SML2]

Come on guys. This is an original 6 team. Nobody outside of Stan Fischler can honestly answer this question.

Top-30 ish?

For perspective, when we did the HFNYR Top Rangers project a few years ago, Gretzky was the 10th ranked Center and Jagr the 10th ranked wing. Zucc doesn't come close to top 30 in my opinion.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Bottom half of the top 100

That was a really fun project.

Have to judge him by the success of his teams and how far they went. He was technically part of the 2011-12 squad. I'd put him in a category with players like Duguay, Hedberg, Pavelich, Don Maloney, Jan Erixon, Pavelich, and even a guy like Turcotte. Somewhere in the middle of those guys based on production, longevity, and team success.

It was a fun era of Rangers hockey the late Torts-early AV era. Probably the second best era since the 1967 expansion. 1. 1989-1997 2. 2011-2017 3. 1967-1975 4. 1978-1986

[ReggieDunlop68]

Top 30?

HA!

 

[Idlerlee]

Somewhere in the top60's, which isnt a bad place to be in considering how old the organization is

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Top 30?

HA!

Maybe he's top-30 in the salary cap era. But that's about it. Top-100 all-time

Def in top 15

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Def in top 15

I could probably make a case for Kreider, Stralman, Zibanejad, Staal (Had 8 great years on defense) and guys who, despite not playing for that many years, were better players like Nylander, Prucha (30-goal season, man), Shanahan. But yeah, Zuccarello is in the top-15 in the salary cap era. Top-100 all-time
