Forwards are going to have to pick it up a bit this year. Lose some points from the back end with Yandle/Boyle gone. Like the defense better this year, offense needs to step it up though.

Nash will have a big year, Kreider will net at least 25, Hayes will remember what he is supposed to do on the ice playing with his pal, and Z will pot 20.
Goal scoring problem solved.

Nice line you've put together.
Shame Kreider is going to regress, I expected more out of him because of the contract.

I loved Kreider, but I am convinced he was put on this earth & the Rangers to torment me.

I would love to see him hit 30, and if he did, we might see a Kreider worth way more than what his remaining contract is worth. Dude needs a confidence building breakout year.

Hank should get at least a B-... Advanced stats back up fact D was terrible. I think Staal stick to eye had a huge impact on his performance and shows why maybe McIlwrath should play more. With Skjei penciled in we should stop talking about getting puck moving D and focus on some of the big boys we have that can clear the crease. Stick to eye would've never happened if Staal wasn't getting overpowered in front. Would be nice to have Holden and McIlwrath in there and maybe teams won't have so much freedom in our end. Still will get offense from Skjei and Macdonaugh. Added team speed this year will also slow down other teams.

I think Staal's ankle surgery last summer affected his play this past season more than the eye, but whatever, hopefully the first long summer in awhile was the tonic Staal and Girardi needed to get themselves going

one thing about the fancy stats people, they think Girardi and Staal have ALWAYS been bad, not just this past year, it's a load of poop

You know what they say:

If at first you don't succeed, repost the exact same thing word-for-word a few hours later.

Not televised. The way the rink is set up just doesn't really allow for it.

Sometimes they do a webcast. Usually just get highlights after, though.

Pete V will be streaming it on Facebook Live from his cell phone. All we need to do is figure out what the "V" stands for and we can all friend him on Facebook.
