UPDATE: Chris Kreider, Jacob Trouba, Ryan Lindgren and Brett Howden are all out tonight. Artemi Panarin (maintenance) is also not skating this morning - jimbro83
How many spots can we go up in the draft if we lose out? |

I thought about doing it to you but I was so mad that Zib and Fox basically straight up (frank)ed me I didn't care anymore. Also losing Ovi and Stamkos didn't help. I got hot just in time to totally poop the bed. |

I think in the 2022-23 season, if the kids developments continues, the Rangers will be able to compete for the cup. That's not to say they'd be favorites, but I think the hopeful plan would be to make playoffs next season, get some experience, and then the window on contention would open the following year. - SkjeiStadium
Once in the playoffs, they have a punchers chance. However...
- Theres a serious consistency issue. Some how no 2 games or 2 periods ever look the same. Every game almost seems like youre seeing a different team.
- Whenever they had back to back games against the top teams, they just cant seem to figure out how to game plan and adjust. Whether they won or just barely lost the first game, they almost always lost the second game.
- Even against the teams we should beat, with every next game played rather than beating down a bad team, these teams closed the margin every game. By the third game against, were sitting on the edge of our seats trying to understand why game 1 was a 5-1 win and game three is a 2-2 tie and were being outplayed in the 3rd of the 3rd game against a bottom team. If we cant do this against them, we sure as hell cant do it against the big boys.
- Shesty. He has his own consistency issues. The playoffs are so much about having the hot goalie. |

I didn't think it would actually work as I was over 50 points behind. Figured it was worth the chance. |

Just spitballing here:
What do you guys think about Trent Frederic of Boston? Big , young, mean and physical player that is still on his ELC. In a small sample size, he is actually good at faceoffs too.
Boston has had a screaming need for scoring all season and they have some cap space opening up this coming offseason. Perhaps we offer Kreider for Frederic and some pieces?
Kreider would likely approve of a trade to go home, we get younger and meaner and we actually clear some needed cap space for the future. If not Kreider, then perhaps Buch or Strome? WIN/WIN |

5 pts in 38 games this season and i just don't like him. i'd pass on that. agree that we need some snarl but he's just a poophead |

Were back on the Frederic trades.
I think Boston really likes Frederic, not sure how that would go down. |

Agreed there's definitely consistency issues. To your second point, I think there's some recency bias. 21 times this year the rangers played a team back to back. They were 9-12 in the first games and 12-9 in the second games. In series where they lost the 1st game, they were 8-4 in the second game.
If you want to focus on "top teams" i removed the devils and sabres games from those numbers above. Without those series, the Rangers played 15 back to backs. They went 4-11 in the first game, and 7-8 in the second game. In series when they lost the first game, they went 7-4 in the second game.
This tells me two things. One, they did a decent job most of the season in bouncing back from losses against the same team in the next game and getting the win. When they won the first game, they had a very hard time sweeping the series. Including the whole division, they went 4-5 in second games when they won the first. Removing the devils and sabres, they went 0-4 in those games.

The Rangers fall right into the position they are in the standings. They were better than the teams below them and left wanting to the teams above them. I know that is an over simplification but for this year it tells the truth.
I truly believe this team needs to remain mostly intact with some small adjustment.

I am not worried, Kreider didn't demand a no movement clause to just say nah nevermind trade me one year in |

#NYR Kaapo Kakko says he feels like his game is so much better than last year.
"Not that many points, of course everyone, forwards like me, want to score some goals and get some points... but I think my game is getting so much better than last season." |

I think he's right. He controlled the puck at an elite level this year. It didn't translate to points but he was way stronger on the puck and much more confident. He's a little like Nash in that he doesn't have a very strong shot so most of his goals will come from forcing his way to the front. Hopefully he can work on his shot this offseason so that he's a threat from the outside which will hopefully open up the inside a bit more for him. Either way I think the points will come |
