The is still the king.
Growing into a real exciting team. Great to watch this group mature as the season goes on. Three rookies on defense! That's crazy! |

Did you see Staals parents ( they showed them a couple of times on the NC feed) they didn’t look to happy!

Assuming this team is learning and maturing, one could surmise they should be better by the second half of the season, and they are setting themselves up for a run for a playoff spot. |

There it is. Mr. Tradeforwinnow. You are on drugs. This is not a playoff team. They have given up absurd amounts of shots and scoring chances almost every game. They are also going to sell off at the deadline. Believe it. They aren't going to lose a player in the expansion draft or UFA for nothing. That would set the rebuild back big time. Players like Fast, Kreider, with the help of God Smith and IMO DeAngelo and Georgiev will be moved. DeAngelo and Georgiev will be moved for a specific young talent that the organization doesn't possess. Like a Cozens. |

| You moron, gawd if there was ever a picture for stupid in the dictionary it would be you. Nobody said anything about "trading for win now" but you. No one is saying players won't be moved at the deadline again but you. Now follow if you can read and comprehend, the Rangers are in the same position as last year at Thanksgiving, last year after which it went to the dogs. This year they can and will continue their ability to win games. The defense is something young clubs deal with as a season progresses and it will get better. Only a moron like you thinks coaches wave a stick and young players and systems instantly get better. Its a process and again only a moron like you can't see the improvement from the start of the season til now. At this point in time the Rangers are in the playoff mix, they will continue to be all season. So relax your laughable wet dream of Cozens and a first for DeAngelo, Fast and Andersson, which again only a idiot like you would make. Players are going to get moved out, just not in fantasy hockey trades you dream up.

Goalies are still saving this team & winning games. The team relies on the goalies too much. The D still sucks. They can score, the O is not a worry, the D is a major problem. |

I agree but the defense and team defense will come around, as young guys get the experience. Its important to remember Skjei and DeAngelo are the only holdovers, and were not staples last year. Its a very young group Quinn is dealing with and including the number of young forwards its a job. Its all about establishing a level of defense that will sustain. I think people forget other teams are good also and are going to get their chances no matter how good the Rangers are defensively. Very seldom in today's NHL does the other team get totally shut down. The important thing as they go through the growing pains is win. |

I'm not looking for Playoffs this year. If so, that's a bonus. I think playoffs next year is a reasonable expectation, & 2-3 years away from a really really good team. I would actually prefer another mediocre year & another Top 10 pick. I don't think the team is so bad to get into the Top 5, but I wouldn't mind another Top 10 pick that turns into a solid NHLer. |

I’m hoping they battle every night. If they do that they could sneak in. They will be able to do one more good selloff by the deadline for what will probably be the last infusion of draft picks for awhile. By the deadline guys like Chytil, Lemieux, and Howden up front should be able to replace a Kreider and Fast without losing much game in the transition. The defence won’t change much unless DeAngelo gets moved and I don’t see that without there being a viable replacement in place to finish the season. He’s a Rafa so the Rangers still have the hammer with him for next year. |

He’s a Rafa so the Rangers still have the hammer with him for next year. But Tony D will have arbitration rights, and if the points are high (on pace for 24 goals 64 points ), so will be the reward. The same can be said of Strome (on pace for 78 points ). Considering Kreider, DeAngelo and Strome from a cap perspective, the Rangers will only be able to keep one.
Agreed Eddie, and I'm saying it has to play out by the trade deadline, to sit here in November and have a plan written in stone is premature on the Rangers part. First they have to see where this season is going, who is or isn't a catalyst, and I have little doubt if the season goes well anyone or all of those three will have a significant impact. If one or more of the three doesn't have a significant impact then its a easier decision of keeping any of them. Its going to be some tough, tough decisions come the deadline if Kreider continues his recent jump in his game and DeAngelo and Strome just continue their excellent starts. I think Gorton has been doing a nice job of weaving this group together and have to have the faith he will do the right thing, whatever that turns out to be. |
