A bit of intelligence goes a long way here.. 10000 drunk fans who didn’t care which guy they got since both were hyped. Let’s take a moment and think hard about what their response would be. What would yours be? Same thing 🙄

Hilarious. We'll give you the 10 yrs, if it makes you feel better ok lol. We all have "random names" as draft picks, most don't make it btw.

Why can't I possibly think that?
Kreider and Panarin would be 35+
Zibanejad, Strome, Goodrow, Trouba would be 33+
Kakko and Lafrienere haven't developed yet
Rangers also have a bad cap situation

Devils have a younger core and their young played have actually shown signs of progression

And one was clearly more hyped than the other one

So did you want us to not be excited about getting the 2nd overall pick? 🤣🤣 good lord man. This position you are taking is petty

The video is about the Devils drafting Hughes at 1, not the Rangers drafting Kakko at 2
Why are Rangers fans CHEERING when the Devils drafted a player fool

Cause it meant we were cheering for Our pick Einstein.

Ok. This is very simple. 10000 people got together to get drunk and celebrate which player we got. We expected to draft Kakko and we’re excited to. We knew Hughes was 1OA. People gather to get drunk and have fun, get that??

Again. Stop typing. Think again. Then don't even reply. lol

Shouldn't you cheer AFTER you make your pick Einstein.

Your pick told us our pick. End of story. Easy really...

So celebrate after you MAKE your pick. Kakko wasn't on the Rangers until AFTER the Rangers made the pick.
Why are Rangers fans celebrating after the Devils selected the better player? All that video is showing is that Rangers fans were happy the Devils took Hughes.

We knew we were getting the other.. if NJ drafted Kakko there would have been the same response. You are way over thinking this, like way over thinking. 😂

Maybe you don’t remember the draft but there was a clear 1st/2nd pick pairing and it would have been an utter shock to see someone else in the top 2. So we aren’t talking about players as of today, but going into the draft. 1-Hughes 2-Kakko with very small chance it would swap..

Didn't matter if it was Mini or Mickey Mouse (no offense...) we we're "obviously" cheering for "the other guy" lol. We get it, you won first pick and flipped a coin, we chose the other. It doesn't mean we want to hear about your temporary, one & only slim advantage ooooovvvvver and ooooovvvver lol. Hang the cape up for a while

Maybe I am over thinking it but it’s very very strange to be cheering when your rival team drafts their franchise player for whatever reason
If it’s a random team like the Coyotes then i get it but your rival team is completely different

So for you we are rivals, we see PIT/NYI/PHI/WSH as rivals way before NJ comes to mind. When NJ had Brodeur it was more so the case but even then it was more so just a good team/goalie to play against. It’s just a divisional team like BUF&TOR are, they don’t have a rivalry in proper sense either. Just “divisional team”. Maybe brodeur and Avery had a rivalry

No way you're serious about that. Basically everyone knows Devils and Rangers are big rivals. Stop lying to yourself

And found another angle of the 2019 Draft video

Rangers fans booing Brodeur but cheering when Hughes gets picked....

Ya, Brodeur days was decent rivalry but that’s it man. Maybe in 5-10 years it can be a real rivalry

So you're using recency bias to determine rivalries? That's pretty dumb

😂😂😂 it’s from 2013, what a joke. That’s literally battle of 2 of the best goalies/ Avery vs Marty. Those ranks are that year specific and aren’t relevant today. But clearly the NYR are living rent free in your head

You specifically pulled up a ranking that is recency bias. So that’s just as dumb. Find an article today that shows we are somehow the leagues top rivals outside of this dumb Hughes/Kakko debate. <— only NJ care to talk about that btw

I literally pulled up the first ranking I saw and the article doesn't even mention the Hughes/Kakko debate



Talking about the Rangers = Rent Free ??? Am I not allowed to talk about them?
Jack Hughes living in Rangers fans head rent free, with Rangers fans trying to say Kakko's better

No idea what fans have said that but it sounds like some high school bs. Hughes is better than Kakko, not concerned about arguing whether or not you best player is better/worse than the 7th best on our team. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I hope Hughes scores 100+ points for you guys for the next 20 seasons. I hope his brother is as good as Quinn. Then we can build a rivalry 😃.
