Nice to see him take the shot. Any of these bozos on this team would've tried to make the pass to the covered teammate hahahaha
Tambellini had his 10th last night. On a poor AHL team, if he scores 15-20 goals as a rookie, that is a fine season. About what I expected. Morrison had a hat trick last night in the WHL. Doing OK after a pathetic start.
Looks like we have at least a few prospects down below and overseas to look forward to. I think our use of the limited draft picks we've had has been good considering. We just need to get them some more draft picks to work with.
2 more Buch goals from yesterday for your viewing pleasure. Can't wait for this kid to get here. Interesting he's a lefty shot on RW. Dump mentioned that about trying Kreider there recently. Worth a shot to get him scoring more. https://www.sny.tv/rangers/news/pavel-buchnevich-had-two-goals-yesterday-watch/163210656
I love Buch on his off-wing, he's had most of his experience there. I'm not sure Kreider's game translates very well to that. Your hockey IQ needs to be a little higher since you will have the puck in a playmaking position more often.
Hopefully he's not scared to come to NA anymore. That's a little bothersome. I wonder what his cap hit would be..maybe 1m?
This team badly needs him. The two players to really watch are Saarela and Graves. Both have huge upside and as usual, the morons who are anti-NY are completely ignoring them. Saarela might be one of the top 30 prospects outside the NHL right now. At one time he was considered a guy that might go 1 in the draft. Rangers f'n stole him. Basically, he's Duclair who can play a lot more defense. So, despite being stupid and trading Duclair, they replaced him quite easily.
He'll just block me again because he knows he'll never make the MSG and he'll be shoveling shit in Missouri.
Graves won the AHL hardest shot at 103.4 mph. Not surprised. He won it in the Q at 100 mph. In other words, he added 3 mph. If he adds another 3, no telling his ceiling. He's quickly becoming a freakin stud. AHL All-Star. 103 mph cannon for a shot. The ceiling is high.
Saarela has 15 goals, 8 A in 37 games in the Finish elite league. Huge year for a player that young. Another reason Stepan is expendable.
right so talking about a prospect making a current number 1 centerman expendable is a huge reach don't ya think
Not really. I'd rather look to what could be here in two years and plan ahead to have a spot for him then have $6M tied up in an average player and one we can't move either. And he's only a number 1 center cuz we SUCK at center. He's a second line center on most teams easily.
