Player Discussion Will Cuylle

[will1066]

I really like how he is pushing defensemen back, as he trucks down the wing, AND has the ability to stickhandle past people for added measure.

 

[Larry Singet]

I don't think this player exists in the league right now.

Not gritty yet but young playmaker = Gabe

 

[Draft Guru]

I remember watching this documentary when he was drafted. Found it again today, so thought I'd share. We got a good one.

Awesome. Thanks for sharing, Hadn’t seen that one.

Nice to have a young player with grit and skill. As bad as the Lias Andersson pick was at least we got Cuylle out of it

 

[Gordon Bombay]

Not enough pages in here. I've been very happy with what I've seen out him. Guy plays a game that will play anywhere and against most teams. I think 3rd line is gonna be his floor and we may get a really good 5v5 2nd line player out him.

Also hearing his name makes me wanna smoke a Kool

 

[Black Tank]

He's been an outstanding rookie and his style of play with speed, physicality and good hands along with defensive awareness means he'll get ice time and points. Very pleased with how he's turned out and hoping for the same with Othmann next year.

 

[rangersfansince08]

On pace for like 20 goals and 13 assists. Would be a great season for him

 

[Vitto79]

Good thing Lias was a baby

 

[GENESISPuck94]

Dubi was better, IMO. But, doesn't matter. Cyulle is a good one.

 

[NYRKing]

He’s been such a tremendous addition thus far. It’s great that he’s solid one on one, hits big, and can drop the gloves, but the offense is there. He’s got soft hands and a good shot.

Try to find something similar for LA.

 

[NYR Viper]

Different players for sure. Dubinsky was scrappy but not at all in the same league in terms of fighting as Cuylle is. Cuylle, I think is more overtly physical than Dubinsky was but of course Dubi was mainly a center in NY

 

[bhamill]

Dubi was aggressive and scrappy, a “middleweight” as far as fighting goes. Cuylle is a wrecking ball and more of a HW. Dubi’s good ~50 point seasons are within reach as well. If he ends up on a line with more gifted players Dubi’s highs are surpassable It’s a pretty good comparison.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Nothing that Cuylle does is overwhelming amazing but he's solid to above average at everything across the board.

Very Jesper Fast esque in that respect but he has the added advantage of being 6'3" 210 with a bit more zip than Quickie. His one real stand out ability so far has been forcing opponents into making decisions with the puck that they'd rather not make. Next step for him is to own the paint and there have already some glimpses of that coming along.

Hs also seems very good at not getting baited into scrums that don’t benefit the team, or penalties. Kmows when to mix it up and when to let it go. Very calculated, doesn’t let his temper get the best of him… but regardless of him saying he patterns his game after Wilson. For a rookie he is really impressive.

I know tonight was Lafreniere's night but this kid didn't stop all night. Should have had a goal. Most impactful Ranger Rookie forward is how long?

This kid is a f***in PLAYER.

 

[Uglybstrd]

He could have had two more goals this season, but Toronto f¤cked up twice.

 

[Black Tank]

It's not often that you notice a third line rookie but holy shit Cuylle seems to be involved in big plays at least once a game. Just keep it up.

He really Is carrying that 3rd line. He and Chytil will be fun to watch. Who knows Kakko might milk off of the hard forecheck by those 2.

I keep thinking about how good that line is gonna be when Chytil comes back. Cuylle-Chytil-Kakko is going to be a pain to play against.

 

[NYRangers0723]

This is exactly the type of player we needed. One with snarl but skill. Refs robbed him of a goal

I'm calling them the Kid Line and there's nothing anyone can do about it.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

I love how he rag dolled Fantilli after that scrum. Kid has an edge and not afraid to show it.

And that was totally a goal.
