Heres an idea.

Chytil, Zib, Kreider
Panarin, Strome, Kakko
LAF, Goodrow, Gauthier
Hunt, Rooney, Reaves

if they want to leave Goodrow at center, then I could see Chytil on the top line, but more so Laf likely to get another shot

they can call him back whenever they want, he is on loan

Thanks! - they should suck it up (both sides) and do this immediately

if you look at for fights only- but that 4th line has really been controlling play and cycling well. He leads the team in hit by a mile

Yeah well his hustle on the last goal in the Devils game shows he isnt a good forth line player, 4th line is to shut it down, if you are gliding with a minute to go in the game, you dont belong out there.

I know its a big IF - but are they allowed to recall Krav from the KHL or does he have to stay there until April?

Like Rick said, they can recall him at any time. Whether he reports is another story.

Though I think if they recall him and he refuses, he will be suspended in the KHL. Could be wrong on that.

Thats been the only time I saw that from him. Once transgression shouldn't get you chucked

I doubt the Rangers will recall him, they know his stance, they loaned him so he can play and boost his trade value. I dont see him coming back unless he has a change of heart but I think that ship has sailed already

I agree. Wishful thinking but stranger things have happened.

he would report if its to the Rangers and not Hartford

I think you're right and I assumed as soon as he ran back to Russia he was done for good with NY.

I still think Kravs is a Fukin idiot for leaving. He literally would’ve played 2 games max down there.

The guy skates like cold honey. Yes I know that hitting opens up the ice but the forth line hasnt produced and you win games with goals, not hits. Yes they produce momentum to but they need to put up a few points also.

I am not sure Drury wants to set that precedent. I also don't know if Kravs is even amenable to coming back.

not an idiot- he is 21. I have a 21 year son and you are an idiot by default

Of course he’s immature. He should have an agent and parents to guide him. Somebody to be rationale with him

I have a daughter who is 2.5. I get it I was 21 before. Different scenario when your child is a professional athlete vs an idiot in college or wherever

- airjan23

I think Kreider is much better on his natural left side. Leave laf alone. The third line should help him grow this season.

4th line has been good but Reaves has to do something. Fight someone to swing momentum.

You think the lack of fights so far is because no one wants to challenge him?
