[MysticLeviathan]

ok not bad

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Good #. Now it's time to earn that big money Kappo.

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

Great bridge deal

 

[JohnC]

But why the f*** did it take so long??

 

[duhmetreE]

What I've been saying for a minute. He wasn't better than Chytil and is a winger.

He was .42 last year, get it right

What I've been saying for a minute. He wasn't better than Chytil and is a winger.

And we are cap strapped.

 

[Rongomania]

BEEEE-A-UTIFUL.

 

[mas0764]

0.5 ppg on a fully healthy breakout season coming. At least.

 

[usahockey22flyers]

Great deal

Actually did the Rangers a favor not breaking out yet. lol. But now it's time to take the next step forward.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Good deal for us, i think a short term deal is what's best for everyone. This deal should motivate him to work to be quicker, if he wants to get paid on his next deal he's gotta put the work in.

 

[LionsHeart]

That’s a good deal. If he breaks out this season it’ll be a great value. How much space does that leave us? Can we resign Motte too?

 

[Vitto79]

Great bridge deal

A few hundred K less than I thought

 

[NYSPORTS]

But why the f*** did it take so long??

it’s July.

 

[QJL]

Only if we trade Reaves or Blais

 

[Mr Bojanglez]

good and potentially great deal.

 

[Rongomania]

So many sweet reasons for this kid to break out right now. Just do what you did in the playoffs during the regular season. He easily could've walked out of the PO's with 10 points. They were on his stick for sure.

 

[BBKers]

exactly what I said. Hmmmm

 

[JohnLennon]

Damn, lots of hate online for Kakko. Didn't he just turn 21? I know he hasn't shown crazy development in the league but sometimes things take time. Has he not shown any glimmer of hope in three years for some Rangers fans to be so down on him?

I think this is a great bridge contract with potential to be a huge bargain if he's able to take the next step that I believe he can take.

 

[duhmetreE]

with a 22 man roster we have around 800k in cap space

He needs to show more, but some of the hate he gets is over the top. There’s a segment of our fanbase that’s impatient, but this is a definitely nut cutting time for him.

That open net he missed in Game 1 vs Carolina, in which they lost in OT. They did win the series in 7, but it'd been better to win it in less than that. Less wear and tear as they moved on to play Tampa Bay.
