When reading this I thought that this guy praises Malcolm a bit much, but I would rather have him under contract than Stajcer IMO.

The article also has more insight on Tolchinsky and a little blurb about Spelling going to Denmark.

Enjoy

Prince Jeff?

 

[Joey Bones]

He's on an AHL contract right?

Prince Jeff?

Exactly my thinking.

Lol hyperbole much?

Hank is a once in a lifetime talent... watch him enjoy him and tell your kids about him when they are old enough. We are never getting anyone as good as him ever again.

I disagree somewhat. I do think we can end up getting a top 5-10 goalie long after Hank retires. But a goalie like Hank? I can agree there. It'll be a longtime before we get somebody like him ever again.

If at all. I wouldn't say it's Jeff Malcolm either.

It bothers me that a lot of fans don't realize how good he is... He is already imo the greatest ranger goalie of all time and its not really close.

Crap like this makes me feel like I should start a blog.

I like this kid but this is absurd. Lundqvist had won every individual award in the SEL by the time he was 23, Malcolm is 24 and only has one good NCAA season to his name.

Is this going to be like that Chad Johnson thread?

AND NO ONE BUMP THAT THING, I WILL BE PIZZED!

But your reaction would be Legend.... ary.

Henrik is a once a century goalie to a franchise.

With a cup, rest of career here, he can be the goalie of the franchise's history for at least the first century.

Great, we can stop worrying about the Lundqvist window now. Consider it open for another 15 years we'll just get this guy to step in at some point.

Calling Prince Chad.

The writer doesn't compare Malcolm to Hank anywhere in the article.. He doesn't say he's going to be the type of player Hank is, he just states that he views Malcolm as a better prospect than all of the other G prospects we have in our system and can quite possibly maybe be Hank's successor (which I don't personally, but to each his own). No reason to overreact about this.

 

[Poozer]

I doubt Malcolm will make it to the NHL in a starting role, I've seen him play a number of games at Yale... it just seems doubtful... and to compare him to Hank is absurd.

Jeff Malcolm is the next Mike Dunham

Jeff Malcolm is the next Mike Dunham

The most sought after piece of NY real estate is the 22 and a half square feet behind Mike Dunham.

I remember the Rangers' "Hockey's Different Here" ad campaign all too well... Thinking that we could spend our way to a Stanley Cup playoff berth in 2003-04.

 

[Machinehead]

There will never be a next Lundqvist. On the off chance somebody should surpass him, they will be the first [enter goalie dude here].

LIRL.

Malcolm's had one good set of 5 games. If Ben Marshall put a little more force into his pass, it's very likely Minnesota eliminates them in the 1st game. Bjugstad maybe showing up for once would've been the nail in the coffin.
