I just remembered that he had a very strong start before hitting a wall. Not sure what happened, maybe just got lucky or maybe lost his confidence after a good start.

lol Alex, I will take "200 games or bust" for $1,000. Name this player https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=63016

So if we are not getting a 1st and don't really have a backup in place, why are we trading him?

Del Zotto?

Howden had 9 points in his first 14 games

I guess I was wrong: https://www.blueshirtbanter.com/2020/8/20/21376846/where-could-the-rangers-other-first-round-selection-end-up-rangers-draft-picks-2020-hurricanes-skjei

I think it is also lost on people that we need Wall to show he can be a backup before we decide to get rid of our very good backup. And by that time Georgiev's value should be a mid 1st rounder.

If they trade Kreider it will be several years from now when Laf establishes himself and we got other LW prospects pushing for jobs and the trade will likely be for picks/prospects.

Trouba did not praise him.

or a good pick to draft a pretty good center. trading it along with ADA would be a lazy bad move.

https://www.foreverblueshirts.com/tony-deangelo-takes-exception-to-criticism-of-brett-howden/ Tony DeAngelo @TonyDee07 He’s become the focus of criticism because people have zero idea what they are talking about. He’s a young, talented hardworking player that is liked by everyone in the organization. Plays hard, both ends of ice and is SO young still. Take Brett Howden everyday of the week! Quote Tweet Vince Z. Mercogliano @vzmercogliano ? Aug 19 The NY Rangers feel strongly that Brett Howden took a step forward during the restart, but what does that mean going into 2020-21? And why has he become a focus of criticism for some fans?

exactly right, I was wondering why they were yawning.

If that was true he would have been sent down to Hartford.

That is his floor.

both Dallas and Calgary are lower ranked so one of them wins and if Islanders finishes off Caps then we are at 22.

With Carolina eliminated the lowest their pick will be is 23?

I agree, but unless there are some injuries I think expectations are we are making the playoffs next season.

all depends how the season goes if they have a strong start and then lose 10 in a row he is likely to get canned. Quinn is like Howden, not really bad, but not really good and you know you can find an upgrade over him and don't have to look too hard.

Howden might have a break out season this season coming up, I would wait and not rush to trade him unless some team really wants him.

what do you expect 50 points from 3rd/4th liner?

2 year @ 4.75 mil

I don't really get why we are searching for one when Strome is here for now. Are there any rumors that we are trading Strome?

Lias couldn't touch Howden's production in NHL so Howden is better so far. 9 points in 66 games vs 42 points in 136 games.

Howden was truly one of the very few bright spots of our playoff cameo appearance. 9 goals 10 assist in 70 games playing mostly with 4th liners or worse is not bad.

Howden is 22 I am willing to give him another chance. Especially after solid 3 playoff games.
