I wouldn't expect too much. He's playing on a Pack team with shit talent up front. I wonder if he'll get any real playing time.
Thank God. Kravtsov is not what this team needs going forward. In 3-4 years on another team out west, he might become something.
It would make sense to get some pick for Blais since they won't be bringing him back next season. Kravtsov either. Rangers need to put more emphasis on speed with their forward prospects in the next few drafts. They are a slow team up front for the most part. Lafreniere actually skating the rest of the season like he did last game would help a lot. Makes me think I was right on with the fact that Lafreniere can't stand this coach and rightly so. He's a fucking idiot developing young forwards. However, he wasn't doing anybody any good, especially himself not skating like he's capable. Have to think somebody got in his ear. Maybe his agent.
It's uncanny how you can get in the head of these young players and enlighten the board with their innermost feelings of coach hatred. Laf's development speed falls somewhere between paint drying and grass growing. He needs to play like he did against the Panthers every game, he's the key to postseason success.
