Morphinity 2.0 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 It's really amazing what an influx of confidence can do for a talented player. It doesn't always work, but putting him with Panarin to boost his confidence was a fantastic move that has paid dividends. He's really proven to be a talented playmaker. He's obviously got a great hockey sense, so it's good to see it square up with the rest of his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keirik Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Strome has been our best reliable forward all year. Too bad we didn't lock him in for 3 years. Been a bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 A former fifth overall pick who has all the confidence in the world and playing in a perfect spot. I think it's safe to say he's found a home here. He's been even better this year, still looking good when Panarin was out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirtyONE Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I wish he could win a faceoff, but yeah, I mean you're not gonna get much better production than that no matter who's playing 2nd line center. Do the Rangers actually have a center ice problem? Not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do the Rangers actually have a center ice problem? Not sure. Nope. They only have a checking or 4th line center problem that can win faceoffs in big defensive spots.

Phil Posted March 31, 2021 Author Share Posted March 31, 2021 Nope. They only have a checking or 4th line center problem that can win faceoffs in big defensive spots. Eh, I'd say they still have no idea what Chytil is, but they definitely don't have a top-6 center problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 I'm with Phil, not sure about Chytil yet. But very happy with Strome and Mika. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Glad they went with what obviously works. Somehow someway, this dude fell into a great situation. The Rangers had no plans to use him in a top 6 role. If Andersson doesn't shit the bed and they don't stupidly deal Namestnikov before trying him in a top 6 role, or if they decided to keep Hayes, I don't think Strome puts it all together.

I don’t think they know but if ziby and Strome are 1/2, and they had an actual defensive/faceoff c for a 4th line, just let Chytil develop untouched in a kid like/energy line role until we know exactly where he is.

After the slow start, he's been magnificent! No complaints from me with Strome....he's a good 2 way center and a good playmaker!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should spend the whole goddamn summer practicing faceoffs. It's literally the last hole in the 1-2 punch, and even then, the wings are so good at getting the puck back.

Keirik Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Just sign a Luke glendening . He’s a ufa this offseason coming off an under 2m cap hit. He’s regularly 55%+ in the faceoff department, is a bottom 6 guy, kills penalties, blocks shots and hits. 31 so he has some experience around the league without being too old to play the game. Just that alone would give some structure and u hope he knows a trick or two that helps others in the f/o circle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G950U using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk I think we need to stay the course with what we have talent wise and just add the complimentary pieces that allow our talent to focus on being the talent they are instead of trying to fit into 5 different play styles at the same time. Am I usually asking for big names here? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrooksBurner Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Great stretch for Strome. He deserves a lot of credit, but I sell high if the opportunity presents itself though. Especially if it is ultimately a means to land Eichel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYR2711 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Eh, I'd say they still have no idea what Chytil is, but they definitely don't have a top-6 center problem. The only problem they have is that they won't be able to keep Strome after next year when his contract is up. And then the bigger issue is who steps in at that second line spot?
