Kakko is fine, his tires are just pumped so hard by fans and certain media (See Jeff Marek) and Chytil is good. Schneider is fine as a 3RHD, but is being pushed up when Trouba plays down. As far as Laf....his flashes are just that. If he's not scoring, he's not really doing much, and he doesn't score much. I've never been impressed by Kravtsov. Rangers are running out of prospects that have any level of impact ahead of them. Othmann might be it.


All that said, GG has a season left....it's his MO.

I do feel the game is moving away from Lafreniere cuz he doesn’t really have the explosiveness to consistently be a menace on the forecheck or transition, he most thrives off making quick touches on the zone entry and cycle, and on the forecheck he is most successful as F3 where he can come away with the puck and play it to the pinching D. But that heavily requires for his linemates to be equally capable in terms of reading plays & battling physically, which cannot be achieved playing alongside Goodrow or Vesey cuz they don’t have the vision or puck control.

So overall, Laf is a very limited player but still, I felt if GG was open to developing high-pedigree guys, we would see better output, cuz he insists on complimenting them with these grinder types when lots of high-end talent has been available for low cost these past few seasons like Milano, Tolvanen, Rodrigues, Domi, Strome that can read the game at a similar level at a similar level. Sometimes breaking out is a matter of opportunity, I don’t think that’s been fulfilled in NYR.

No not at all.
Move on little guy.

better trade for the rangers would be laf for guentzel. This post is a joke

I don't think Lafreniere has that much value at this point, tbh.

Fiction can be Fun!!... Finkle is Einhorn.. Einhorn is Finkle!!!

Drury's only bad trade is buch so far.
