Phil Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Brett Howden was injured during the first period of Tuesday?s game vs. the Philadelphia Flyers, and he is reportedly going to be out of the lineup for a while. Once he undergoes an MRI the Rangers will have a more definite timeline, and who the team promotes from Hartford ? if they even choose to do so ? will likely give an indication of the severity of Howden?s injury. https://www.blueshirtbanter.com/2019/1/30/18204065/nhl-new-york-rangers-report-brett-howden-is-going-to-be-out-of-lineup-for-a-while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josh Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 hi Andersen--1st round bust Should be Holland or Letteiri based on recent play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 Should be Holland or Letteiri based on recent play. Also, likely role. I've got no interest in fourth-line winger Lias Andersson. Just bring up Letteiri, Holland, or Meskanen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Holland has been noticeable. Last year of his contract, give him a few weeks, maybe someone likes what they see and offer a late round pick Probably be Beleskey or Brickley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slobberknocker Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I don't get how guys like Howden and Anderson are getting a tough time from this board. did you guys expect the next Sid? I dont believe anyone can with certainty say what they are at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Well, we can say they aren't very good at this moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont believe anyone can with certainty say what they are at the moment. I dont think we've been too hard on Howden. Some of these things have been said about him from the beginning. Its just more apparent to the everyone else, except Quinn - which leads to more comments. I dont think anyone is, or should be "done" with either 20 year old, at this point. The same people calling Andersson a bust are also dreaming about 20 year old college players, so its more of a preference of personnel, rather than calling out a guy for not producing, which, I mean, you can. With being the only high draft pick the Rangers have iced in 20 years, he comes with the highest expectations, whether its fair to put those on him, is a different discussion, but can be frustrating, as a fan.

Gravesy Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 It’s probably not all bad for Howden to get a little break. He’s been drowning for months. Hopefully it’s nothing serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCCP Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 he looked much better playing wing last night. had couple of chances. My hopes went up for him and came crashing down fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlairBettsBlocksEverything Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 he looked much better playing wing last night. had couple of chances. My hopes went up for him and came crashing down fast I thought he looked pretty good on the wing as well. Depending on how serious the injury is though, I'm wondering if maybe it's best to just shut it down for the year, heal up, don't risk injury, have a productive summer and come back to camp fresh and ready to earn some ice time again.

4EverRangerFrank Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Kid looked like he was making a go of it last night and could have scored early - that would have boosted his confidence. Unless he?s skating in a week or two save it for next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatfrancesa Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 There is still 30plus games and almost ten weeks to go. Way to early to shit it down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
