Valriera Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 11 minutes ago, CBrowningPI said: With getting Kane the NHL East Frenzy article says "the Rangers have arguably the best top 6 in the NHL". I can't remember ever hearing that. Best Top 9 - and it's not even close with Kane in the lineup. They already arguably have the best top 9. Top 6 is closer, how can anyone say a top 6 with McDavid and Draisaitl doesn't win there. I can't. But our Top 9 as a group is already terrifying and this just makes it worse for everyone else. For me, and I hate to say it, but with this move you have to split the kids up. The 2 lines of: Kreider-Mika-Tarasenko Panarin-Trochek-Kane is soft as all hell. I would try to split the kids up to add some jump/size on each line and try this or something similar: Laf-Mika-Kane Panarin-Chytil-Tarasenko Kreider-Trochek-Kakko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the issue is the recall, not acquiring Kane. I'm no expert though, just what I see on social. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s on a lot with Biz and Ryan Whitney on the podcasts. He’s a lunatic Ranger fan. Gretzky called him “the Ranger guy” during a picture he was taking with all those guys, so that nickname has stuck.

Hopefully it's done soon and he can make his Rangers debut at MSG on Thursday night vs. Ottawa. He can go up against Gauthier. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 I'm just nervous about the cost. That Jeannott guy brought back a huge return. Are we OK with a future 1st going to Chicago? Me kinda no like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tampa hasn't had anyone physically intimidating for the most part in the top 9. They've had pretty big boys who could be effective at playing a grinding style of hockey on their 4th line though. Rangers kind of mimicking this approach to be honest. Too bad they have a coach who doesn't properly weigh the importance of sound defensive structure above all else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And tarasenko looks like hes more comfortable with panarin-tro Tarasenko, when acquired, made a lot of sense because he was more of a shoot first guy. I like him with 93 and 20 because, as we saw with Vatrano last year, he’s a sniper. I’d rather him up there, putting pucks on net off the rush. Kane and Panarin, though both playmakers, had a knack of turning one another into shooters back in Chicago. I’m hopeful that will happen again here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
