Dunny Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 I'm not about to call Cody McLeod a good NHL hockey player, but I have to say he has been effective at times. If you watch his couple shifts last night it's pretty clear to me that the Islander Dmen were keenly aware of his presence on the ice and were attempting to shuffle dump ins quickly to avoid the 225 pounds of insane Scotsman honing in on them. His fight was BS, he didn't want to fight and because of that apprehension he took a licking but I'm pretty confident he could turn the tables on that no name scrub given another opportunity.

Ranger Lothbrok Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 I've actually liked him a lot TBH. He's representative of the overall battle level of this team. Scrappy, hard-working and overachieving but having a good time doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LONG LONG LONG TIME FAN Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Too bad for Cody. He had a role which many " fans " had little appreciation for. Hopefullly the NYR can find an adequate replacement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pws85nyr Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 I think a replacement of similar mentally makes sense, and Belesky makes the most sense to me. Scored 2 last night for the pack and seems to have recovered from his pre season injury, where I thought he played well. Completely agree with the comments re McLeod though. Was starting to be less of a burden and more impactful in the right way, albeit still not much.

Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by TapatalkI would love to see Beleskey on the 4th line. Not to have him fight, just the physical presence and give Andersson someone to pass to that will be able to make a play. I love joking about McLeod, but he has done what he's been asked to do and I think he adds that character that JG talks of.

Dunny Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 I'd prefer Beleskey, too. But I kind of like McLeod now. Either is a good 13th when you need the nuclear option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sod16 Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Given that McCleod was leading the league in fights, it would seem that most teams are getting along without a player of his ilk in this day and age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Tied for team lead in goals over the last game. Not an insignificant loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Amazing what a win streak can do. It can make people think McLeod isn't a terrible hockey player. It's going to be so much fun when we lose a couple games or have a questionable hit on one of our players so we can debate if it's because AHL McLeod's presence is missed.

josh Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 I didn?t realize he landed a punch. I figured he tore a ligament in his hand or dislocated a finger trying to hang on for dear life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBrowningPI Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 We're left to wonder how long his goal scoring streak would have lasted. Sent from my SM-N900T using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N900T using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk It's safe to assume he just needed that first goal like Chytil. At least a 5 game scoring streak.

The Dude Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Not a fan. Happy that someone else will get a chance. I think he's won one fight since joining the Rangers. He stinks and I don't like him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
