agree to disagree
eventually they will give him a shot there ESP if Zib cannot be had for affordable extension
Kakko - Krav - Panarin
that's the line I'm pulling for

I believe Barron is projected to at least be tried at C.
could be subject to who else is on the roster, but expect they will kick the tires
I guess. I just don’t see it though. If they were going to groom him as a C, he would be Anchoring his own line in Hartford as a 2 or 3 c so he could learn the position and start refining his skills. It’s very telling to me that they stuck him at wing and want him to get his minutes there. Especially if he gets a cup of coffee with the rangers this year, no doubt it will be at wing
They are the youngest team in the league in the division of death, they are4 points back of a playoff spot and with the exception of opening night, have been in every game. There should be no fire sale.
Which is totally fine because no one in buffalo wants to trade Eichel anyways so lets cut this dance short shall we?
We can put it hold until the end of the season and revisit it. It’s not going to be up to everyone in Buffalo when the Sabres fail to make the playoffs again, and their captain, who is already playing disinterested hockey and dragging his feet defensively forces a trade. Then we can revisit the situation. Sure
Sure when the Sabres fail to make the playoffs again our GM's can talk it over on the golf course since the Rangers aren't sniffing the playoffs either so the condescension was kinda pointless in your rebuttle. I'm sure Jack will be chomping at the bit to force his way onto another non-playoff team smh....
Rangers are in a turning point of a rebuild. They are the youngest team in the nhl with a top 3 prospect pool and depth at almost every position except center. Injuries might have cost us our shot at the playoffs, maybe not but the rangers are far ahead of where buffalo sits now. I’m sure Eichel would hate to have Panarin or LaF on his left and kakko to his right . I watch a lot of Sabres games. Eichel looks likes he’s had it. These 2 franchises are at far different points, even if both miss the playoffs

Honestly who knows. Might not even be eichel. Could be barkov. I’d imagine it would be Zibby, prospect, prospect, 1st. It’s nothing I see happening until offseason at the earliest. Maybe at draft

He’s been pretty solid this year. Trouba and Miller are our number 1 pair

This was always going to be a development year for the Rangers and I don’t think they should overreact to a poor season. Rangers get lots of bad money off the books this offseason.
Smith, 4.350
Lundqvist, 5.500–>1.500
Shattenkirk, 6.083–>1.433
13M in cap space is going to help a lot with shoring up depth and defence. This year is important as the young players get to see what they need to work on and management figures out which vets should stick around

Pointless in hindsight but imagine if they took Dach/Stutzle instead of the Laf/Kaakko. They'd be a nightmare to play against down the middle for the next 15 years

There is not a single GM in the league, including the ones in Chicago and Ottawa, that would have taken Dach over Kakko and Stutzle over Lafreniere.

Prove it.
Dach wasn’t even the consensus 3rd best player in the draft that year. Everyone has Hughes and Kakko at 1 and 2 and some had Kakko at 1.
Did I hurt your feelings? Didn’t say it was for sure, just said I’m not sure Chicago would’ve went for kakko. Didn’t say anything bad about him either.
So how about you prove it.

No feelings hurt here. I think you made an outlandish statement and should back it up with some facts.
Here are some facts.

No but you should look up what the word consensus means in the dictionary. It’ll help your understanding.
