<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GenericUsername489</b></div><div>Are you telling me that you would rather see promising young players than 31 pts. in 248 games Michael Haley?? You're crazy!!!</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mvp13</b></div><div>A possible reason for this - as I've now been informed - is the Rags only have 4 games in the opening 15 days. Maybe they are sending Krav and Fil down to get some games in during this weird opening schedule. I still don't like it, but that does make some sense, at least. I'll wait for the press conference about it and see if Coach mentions it</div></div>

Haley is a 13th forward that won't get playing time.. in terms of Chytil and Kravtsov-- it makes sense to have them in the AHL.

Chytil:
- He is absolutely atrocious at faceoffs
- Bad in the defensive zone
- Horrible pre-season performance

Result: he needs to learn how to play center in the AHL. The rangers could only use him at wing, but they need him to be a center long term. Give him a year to develop at the position in the AHL.

Kravtsov:
- Played well enough in preseason to play top 9
- Due to rangers current roster makeup and predictions, would be playing a 4th line role
- Rangers have to build up the value of Strome (rfa), Namestnikov (UFA), Fast (UFA) who are most likely gone by the TDL
- You have three top 50 prospects in the entire NHL in the AHL between Chytil, Kravtsov and Sheshterkin (arguably top 25). With the additions to Hartford, they should no longer be a bottom feeder. Let Chytil and Kravtsov build chemistry together and they could be in the top 6 come trade deadline (if kreider/strome/namestnikov are traded).

Result: Better to get top pairing minutes in AHL while adjusting to the smaller rink size instead of 4th line minutes
