Gotta stick with Chytil as a RW on the top 6 for a while

Don't know much about this guy, but i think there's generally an unwarranted bias towards external 'solutions' when its more of a coin toss as to whether it'll turn out to be an upgrade over what can be utilized or developed in-house. So at the very least you should not give up too much in these cases.

He still looks better than last year...holds on to puck for longer, makes a good play here and there. Sure, wed hope for a hell of alot more, but the potential is still apparent.

Yeah 189 points in 142 games as a NYR.... How dare they gi r him his spot back lol 

the PP is just better with Zibanejad there. Panarin can be just as effective on the other board.

why the f' did they give Zibanejad's spot on the PP back to Panarin...stupid.

whats with Byfield...shouldn't he be NHL ready by now?

Strome a f'n turnover machine on that PP

how come the camera man kept cutting to georgie after that sh*t goal...i mean, sam and joe didn't say anything about it...but the camera man is like ...."f that, that was a shit goal, im going to keep showing that asshat hanging his head in shame".

its hilarious how many open net bangers Laf gets...and just about all he gets...but he's so good at it, one day we may need to stop joking. I mean, what if he turns into an open net bang it in specialist, with like 25+ plus of them one season...you'd have to consider that some kinda crazy skill, or knack, rather than luck.

Another game that to me just shows the rangers have the pieces to the puzzle - just need to figure out how to put it together consistently and efficiently.

feelin a 5 goal game from Mika...

Jesus...can they stop taking Mika off that PP wing when panarin comes back...its fn rediculous at this point...he's a monster in that spot, and it gets him going 5v5

I like Blais and thought he was playing some very good hard hockey when he went down.  That guy is gonna be a gamer in my opinion.  I hope we give him another deal and keep him.  I like guys with Stanley Cup rings and experience in that locker room right now!

Except...have u seen the numbers buch is putting up? Hard to feel good about letting him go and signing goodrow at this point 

Kakko seems like a good fit next to Kreider-Zib...would just give that some more time.

Would like to see chytil next to panaran/strome or kreider/zib.

If he cant make either of those work than he truly is a dud.

If longevity is going to be an ongoing question...seems like we have the perfect contract in place. And theres plenty of time to work on a contingency.

There are always going to be teams that only start putting it together and get hot in the last quarter of the season - who become cup contenders. So no need to seel our fate at this point.

A few things need to fall into place before they can be considered contenders.

At the very least u need Zib and Panarin both in top form.

And you need more production out of Kakko, Chytil, Laf

Zibanejad needs to retain that left board spot on the PP when Panarin comes back. Not sure why they ever switched that up.

helluva pass by kreider...good his stick stayed in tact

theres like a 50% chance kreider breaks a f'n stick when he's flying down the wing with the puck

jesus...where the hell did that snipe go till now...

For whatever mistakes Hajek made...i thought he flashed some skill a few times

holy shit...Makar is freakish moving along the blue line

Having that 8M not go to waste is huge.

Thought all the captain talk before the season was bizarre...but hes earning it now.
