[brooks] If Rangers "don't believe [Andersson] can handle more," Why is he Here?

[Kevin]

Maybe some teenagers just aren’t ready to be on an NHL second line and throwing them into it just might hurt them more than help them. I’ll continue to trust the coach has a pulse on the situation this early on into the season

 

I'm with you. Nothing that Kakko has done, nor what I saw in preseason with Krav and Chytl, makes me think they earned more than they are getting. The flip-side is that Howden hasn't either yet he deploys him routinely.

[Dunny]

Does anybody else not think that making profound decisions based on a two week training camp is dumb?

 

I've never really understood it. Maybe it's just the baseball on my brain.

 

Plenty of teams take other routes with their young guys, banishing them to the AHL isn't the only option, especially when there is no alternative.

 

We'd be 2-9-1 just the same with Kravtsov and Chytil playing 12-15 a night here as we are with dressing three guys from the Corpus Christie Ice Rays.

I think it's really hard to judge anyone playing with Kreider and to a point, Kakko. The former because he's playing like shit. The latter because he's figuring it out.

 

Strome with KK... Shit

Strome away from KK... Much better

Howden with KK... Shit

Howden away from KK... Don't even notice him (which is probably what you want from him)

 

I'm going to watch him a little more closely when I can.

 

My guess (and maybe hope) is that Quinn isn't results driven, he's "make the right play" driven. He may feel the results will eventually become if you trust the process.

But would Chytil and Kravtsov be learning certain lessons about the compete level necassary to play in the NHL?

 

It's also pretty clear to me that they're coming up once they inflate Strome and Kreider value enough to move them. I think they move both pre TDL.

Maybe, why wouldn't they be, they'd be playing here.

 

If they're here they're going to get chances to move up, etc.

The demotion to the AHL was about will, not skill.

[Dunny]

Yeah, he wants people to work to exhaustion, I get it.

 

Really smart stuff, seems to be working well.

This is what makes it impossible to have a conversation with you LOL.

 

Look at the A...Cheats gets it, Krav doesn't.

[Dunny]

Who, or what, are Krav and Cheats?

[Vodka Drunkenski]

Took me a couple of posts to figure out Chytil, not going to lie

You're crazy if you think I'm always going to type "Chytil" and "Kravstov"

 

Cheats and Krav work with voice-to-text.

[Dunny]

WTF is voice to text?

[phillyb]

It actually makes sense that Pete is using voice to text; I've noticed a lot of random small errors in his posts lately that can only stem from the phone (or whatever you're using) not hearing one properly.

[Ozzy]

"Hey Siri, what's the score of the Rangers game?".... "I'm sorry Ozzy, the average size of the male penis is a lot bigger than yours!"

 

My talk to text is right on the money... :rofl:

hahahahhaha

I don't let my Siri see me naked

[Ozzy]

I don't let my Siri see me naked

 

CC, my Siri is rather sarcastic. I tried other voices and dialects but she's still kinda mean! I actually used the English accent to make it sound like Elizabeth Hurley, and I get this:

 

"Hey Siri, How do I look today? ...."If I were you Ozzy, I would shave my ass and learn to walk backward!"

 

:rofl:

[Albatrosss]

u must've gotten your iPhone for free. Siri likes to get paid

I've got 2 kids now. Don't have 2 hands to type.

Thanks! I named her Dunny.

Congrats and godspeed. One is more than a handful.

It's a whole other world. Moving from a double team to one on one is game changer.

My wife and I just had our first last week (boy). I can't imagine not being able to double team. Godspeed to you.
