Lias Andersson with one of his best pro games last night

2 goals and 1 assist and was 2nd star of the game

maybe the Chytil treatment will work for Lias??? We desperately need another C...

This is not ideal:
Vitaly Kravtsov will play for Traktor’s VHL affiliate Chelmet Chelyabinsk this morning. He skated just one shift in the last two KHL games. #NYR

yeah, this is worrisome for sure

i hear what we want to trade off all the time : varies some but using situations we all know about on the players & team and using finances now & later as well as skill level of team now & where it needs to go to be a top contender ...

WHO DO WE WANT FROM THE TRADES EITHER BY POSITION OR BY NAME ...

We all want grade A talent in return ,either proven or on the brink of reaching that level, I realize for that to happen we should be prepared with 3 for 1 deals that targets the talent & gets it..

We Need a top wing for a top line (Kreids /Buchny ) 1 or both out

would you trade Kreids for Anderson (CBJ) straight up?

Buchny is 3rd line skill at best

Need a top D for Trouba : trade A dA- Georgiev +

Krastov sounds like a ??? never know ,dosnt seem engaged when playing

using our stock we can round out deals to get what we want & need

how real do you think Johnny G. in Cal could be traded ?

who is our targeted players , i know the positions needed ,But who???

Kratsov and Lias back to back busts?

it would be terrible if that's the case

but with Kravstov it just seems as though he's immature head case, it's not that the talent isnt there

I know I was an ass when I was 19

CK20 nor Buch alone will net us a top line winger. Top line players are rarely available for trade.

IMO Buch is better than a third liner. I think he isnt a bad 2nd liner.

The Rangers probably wont be trading for any defense since they have a few solid prospects waiting in the wings. Even with the loss of Staal and possibly ADA

VK sounds like a 19 throwing a temper tantrum. He has less trade value than JP on the Oilers. I doubt they give up on him so soon.

After spending the last 18 months acquiring picks and prospects I doubt the Rangers will be trading them away. The Rangers will have the usual suspects on the block CK20 along with Fast, Staal and Smith. Quite possibly AG also. We have log jam in net that will have to be resolved.

I highly doubt that Johnny G will be traded. He is having an off season along with the whole Calgary team. Its not all on him.

This is a rarity for sure,...

I agree on all points!

Pretty much agree with the exception that when Buch plays with passion, he is a 2nd liner, which is too far and few between

Kratsov and Lias back to back busts?

Way way way way way too early to say that. Kravtsov may just need to some time to re-adapt and get acclimated back to playing in the KHL, after coming in partway through the season.

Tony B. gets a 2min minor for crossposting Mr. Tanner!

I think Kravstov has simply lost his confidence. He came to U.S. early, worked out all summer here, worked on his English, and when he didn't make big club it shook him. The game that always came easy to him now requires work and commitment in order to advance. He is young and immature and I am sure in time he will turn it around.

The skill that we saw on display in training camp is still there. Hopefully the light bulb turns on shortly.

In Game 28 between the Montreal Canadiens (MTL) among us and the New York Rangers (NYR), the Canadiens emerged victorious with a score of 2-1. The Rangers suffered a loss in this game, and the outcome was determined by a late goal.

It is stated that CK20 (likely referring to a player with the initials CK and the number 20) and Buch (possibly referring to another player) would not be enough to acquire a top-line shell shockers winger. Acquiring top-line players is challenging as they are rarely available via trades.

Farewell Kotkaniemi, an extraordinary theme that classroom 6x encapsulates the bittersweet departure of a talented hockey player.
