Perennial Norris caliber defenseman signed for sub 10M AAV until age 31. Chris Drury Masterclass?
I said Fox is the worst skater ON THE TEAM. Staal isn't on the team. And no, Lafreniere is not a worse skater. He has more straight away speed.did you just start watching hockey today? jesus christ I mean Marc Staal still exists
for f***s sake Trouba and Lafreniere are easily worse!
then read the second line sirI said Fox is the worst skater ON THE TEAM. Staal isn't on the team.
Laf is a better skater. Much better straight away speed.then read the second line sir

Norris nominee notwithstanding he proper shit the bed in G7 vs the Debbies for that opening goal. Love the kid to tears but when he screws the pooch he really splits the thing open.
My only issue with Fox is that he has a habit of slowing down/ stopping his play to throw his hands up and complain.I'd add that he needs to work on his skating. He's the worst skater on the team. He's the Derek Stepan of defensemen.
That one of the worst defenders in the NHL is being nominated for the Norris blows mine.Karlsson’s out of nowhere rebound season being a historic one still blows my mind.

Karlsson's year is genuinely one of the most inexplicable rebound seasons of all time, That dude seemed cooked, for years, and then he puts up 101 out of nowhere. Insane.
Anyway, Fox was better at defending people, which is a fairly important part of being a defenseman, so Fox is the best overall of the three, but Karlsson is winning, and I don't even mind.
People out of their minds thinking Fox doesn't deserve to be a finalist. Get it together.
Even Fox makes mistakes. In his case, I've already overlooked it considering how consistently good he's been outside that game.Norris nominee notwithstanding he proper shit the bed in G7 vs the Debbies for that opening goal.

Fox is rediculously good, imo he plays too many minutes, there's basically no need of him on the pk.This fanbase is ridiculous sometimes. For years I watched Keith Yandle and Marc Staal fumble the puck at the blueline and lose possession, thinking if only we could control the puck at the blueline, we would score so many more goals. Now we have that guy and he's being torn down.
People need to get it together. Fox is unreal. All defensemen make mistakes, it's the hardest position in this league.
Oh, we 100% did. It's very telling that our best player is only on our team because he insisted on playing here after being drafted by Calgary and traded to Carolina.I mean the only reason it's affordable is because of the RFA years. But I give credit for management realizing early on that this kid was the real deal instead of waiting until he was 26 and then having to give him 8x13 taking him to 34 instead.
That said I hope he spends his whole career a Ranger. The most important piece on the roster right now. As I've said a couple times, maybe we lucked into him a little bit, but if we'd taken Fox 1st overall in the draft, no one would be disappointed. His success counteracts Lafreniere's failure.
gonna maintain till i'm dead that Kreider played that worse. I saw what Fox was trying to do, it just massively backfired. Kreider had an easy chance to get the puck forward thanks to Fox winning the battle and he just........didn't.Norris nominee notwithstanding he proper shit the bed in G7 vs the Debbies for that opening goal.

That’s his mom’s opinion. She wants him on PP1 too, and for him to get 20 minutes a game.Lafreniere being a better skater than Fox is the take of the year. Thanks for coming out, everyone.
Fans associate skating with "on a scale of slow to fast where does he rank..."Lafreniere being a better skater than Fox is the take of the year. Thanks for coming out, everyone.
