How's Ryan Ellis been? - cranford93
I think he is looking good from what I have read about him but I havent noticed him during the Avs Pred games this year so I dont know first hand.
Edit: As just mentioned above, apparently invisible but I keep on reading about how good he is going to be |

Yeah, because if there's one thing Nashville is known for, it's offense. - GOODPLAYA20

Why? What are you scared of? His hair? - Cptmjl
I think it might be because of his career high 27 penalty minutes a couple of years ago |

They most certainly are, I'm so finished with Sather. That's what took him this long, to snag an average 29 yr old dman. - pcjr307
kevin klein is a good player. nothing special or flashy, but neither is girardi or staal. |

You said he'd develop into a top 20 offensive dman. On a team that makes the Rangers look like the 1985 Oilers... |

He is such a bad man that nobody even bothers to mess with him. |

Not a bad top 4 on paper - DDM-Coga
We had to have some D lefties...Jones, Weber, Kleiner, Ellis, and Barkley and 4 assorted Joe-Bobs in the AHL who will be pushing the bigs in 2+ years....all righties
Hopefully, Coach Housley will get hold of DZ and push his play. |

it was mostly a joke based on how all young rangers players end up doing amazing after we trade them...but i do think MDZ will turn into a really good player over the next few years. nashville has 2 defensemen on pace for over 40 points at the moment too, and the rangers have only scored 6 more goals than them this entire season. so they aren't as offensively inept as you make it sound. |

I wonder how many people's initial reaction was "who the hell is Kevin Klein? The actor?"

he's not a fighter but he hits hard and plays physical. he doesn't take stupid penalties either. |

I gotcha. But Nashville plays a very defensive-minded system. Like Torts' system on steroids. And DZ's biggest issue was turning the puck over every 2 seconds. I think there's more risk for Nashville then there is for the Rangers here. |

i think we will be pleasantly surprised with klein. he plays the right side, is capable of playing 20 minutes a night pretty solidly, and is physical and tough as fack. this could be a precursor to making girardi more expendable via trade or FA too, because i think klein is basically girardi lite only tougher and on a very affordable deal.
i wouldn't wanna get in a fight with this dude
- rangerdanger94
The mohawk was more for playoff hype than anything else. He inspired a lot of the guys to get one as well. (Note Hal Gill with the Klein-hawk sitting next to him) Klein is a really good locker room presence and a solid stay at home defender. He's vastly underrated.
Btw, this was on Monday:

Good luck to Klein. We'll miss that Klein-hawk. |

Sorry we only have fruit punch...
A good grab for both teams but I think Del Zotto blossoms with Nashville and the trade favors them in the long run. |

more risk for sure, but i think MDZ will figure his game out and his potential is obviously higher than klein's. klein is what he is at this point and MDZ could turn into a stud. my gut says MDZ will make the rangers end up regretting this trade in the long run. |
