Me too. It shows me Quinn has his eyes open and his head on straight.
(Or, that he agrees with me )

Vince is on top of everything. He has been a revelation.
(I like Larry and Carp too, but Vince seems to be bulldog).

I'm enjoying a playoff team (ok, a team in the playoffs). I'm not going to sweat a 19-year-old's emotional swings.
I hope VK can find it within himself to be satisfied with being a Black Ace in the playoffs in the world's top league in his career of choice.

I don't like "unfit to play". Sounds yucky. Even though it probably means they turned an ankle or need a filling.

Alright, I'm gonna say it. f*** Trouba's dog. For real. With his bs piercing eyes and shit.
Kravtsov better realize quickly that this isn’t about him. It’s about the team and he needs to earn his way up to the team. I loved what he did on the ice when he got back to Hartford but every time I read an interview I hear an extremely immature me first kid that seems to always have an issue with what the team is telling him. JD said it just recently and I agree it’s about maturity with this kid. No other way to slice it.

These two are on the opposite ends of the physique spectrum also. Now they are lumped together in a big general category.

There is a lot of Kovalev in Kravstov. Who else would think a 2+ minute punishment shift was a reward? I could see Krava thinking that way. I still hope there is that much game in him too. He embarrassed too many guys in the KHL as a HS student to be mediocre.

A leaner and quicker bull is still a bull!
I can't wait to see how his development curve goes over the next 6 months. He has the potential to explode onto the scene as a genuine threat on every shift!

hockey is so fast on ice yet looks so much slower on camera b/c you know how to follow the game. On the flip side, that’s the problem with hockey. Too many viewers don’t know how to watch it so they lose the puck/play.

I assume they way they watch it is by looking at the screen.

back before HD you just kinda had to watch the players twirl around the ice and assume the puck was in the pixels somewhere
Great to see those clips. The Rangers are no longer the blue smurfs for sure. Crazy all the forwards and dmen (especially younger guys) that are already over 6'2" and over 200 pounds with some skill. Now just keep maturing and maybe develop a little snarl to their games and this won't be a team that gets pushed around so easily.
I know its not that they are all going to pan out to the top of their projections, but having all of those draft picks and prospects we've been working on for the last few years all on the "NHL ice" together (Kakko, Kravtsov, Miller, Chytil, Lindgren, Howden, Gauthier, Shesty, Fox) sure seems like the start of the pay-off.
