If Roobroeck makes the team next season that will give the Rangers 3 players 6'7 or taller. I think Drury is confused. This isn't the Knicks. It's hockey dude.
Finally a prospect in Laba whose skating won’t be an issue lol I like how he pulled away from a defender with a few strides. Dump, please tell us again how skating is not important in these days NHL
I never said it’s not important but you over fucking emphasize it every goddamn player. K Miller skates like the wind and he’s a fucking idiot. Nobody gives a shit how fast you skate if you don’t know what to do with it and your hockey sense is dog shit.
Roobroeck with 2 more goals. Looking more and more like a steal. The family talent is there. His brother will be a super high pick next season. Perhaps it took our Roobroeck some time to figure out how to use his 6'7 frame. 18 goals and 31 points as a 20 year old on that crap team is quite good. Lord knows we need a center. Now if we could just get a coach in here that could develop young forwards. Drury has done a decent job drafting. However, it won't mean jack shit if he hires coaches that can't develop talent. Not sure he will be back either.
Our farm system fucking sucks. Years of not acquiring extra draft picks. Trading them. Gorton fuck ups. Dreadful. Drury's returns in deals have been poor at best.
The farm system has sucked for over 80 years lol They don’t give a fuck in improving it or they have no clue how to implement one. Honestly, there are maybe a handful of teams in the NHL that have had a good farm system consistently.
Roobroeck another goal last night his 19th. Laba 1 G 1 A. Big brawl in that game. Henricks the GW goal in Western Michigan championship win. Glad to see a team like that win the whole thing. Henricks is 6'5. If we suck at hockey our team can play basketball soon.
Pack finished their season. Roobroeck scored his 20th goal in a very impressive season. He has a shot to give us that 6'7, 6'8, 6'9 NBA fourth line next season. Laba had 1 G 1 A for 5 points in 11 games which is not a bad AHL introduction. Sykora finished with 30 points, -23 and was a major disappointment. I see no future for him here now. McConnell-Barker had only 15 points but was a +3 on a crap team. Hopefully, he can take a big step up next season.
