Kakko's looked good so far, playing on the top pp. Not sure what happened with Panarin going to the locker room. What's up with Al Trautwig he dosen't seem healthy.
Yeah, I guess he is playing...I haven't been watching consistently...guess I am missing his shifts...good to hear he's playing well! Hopefully Panarin is OK.
You can see the high level skill with Kakko and Fox. Trouba was awful on defense all night. His pinches were terrible. Andersson looks like a new player. He was great.
Hughes looked very impressive. He finds open areas. Then again, the defenseman out there for the Rangers other than Staal will probably never see the NHL. It's a long year. He almost got his head taken off on one hit. Lundqvist to me is done. I don't see Hank keeping his starting job this year. However, the team let up about 10 odd man rushes. It was pathetic. One positive note was Howden. The player nobody seems to talk about. He was good. Chytil was much better in the faceoff circle.
Chytil back to being 3 w 12 l on draws. If that is what he does, he can't take draws at the least. Didn't see the game. Looks like I didn't miss anything but Shesterkin getting peppered.
Shesterkin was VG in the net, as almost every goal was on the D. Trouba and Chytil look like crap early on.
Well, I don't care about the pre-season other than kids trying to win jobs. What I do care about is the fact that Trouba and Skjei got paid a ton of money and they better not suck in the regular season.
