Mr. Preachy
It's safer to assume he makes the team as opposed to assuming he doesn't make the team, yes.

with Covid, keep him safe and away from everybody but the Rangers.

Just put him CT with Miller at this point. Have him begin working out with Prentiss and living with Marty and his family.

He can always go back if he doesn't. And unless they changed the rule due to Covid, once he plays in the Q, he isn't eligible to play in the NHL until his season is done, except in an emergency, but that only ever happens with goalies.

He can’t play in Hartford. He’ll be in NY, where he should be.

That was my thinking as well. Hopefully not another case of “I can make it off talent alone.”

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that he made this decision after the lottery. Think the Rangers wishes are reflected here.

I don’t actually think it’s lazy. Think Kakko’s world tour before coming to camp was detrimental to his rookie season. It’s a long 82 games for a rookie, no need to make it any longer. Rest is good.

By CT I meant do what Miller is doing right now. Living and working out with NHLers not playing for the Wolfpack.

I wasn’t aware that’s what Miller was doing. Hence the confusion.

He’s not even drafted and he’s already holding out.
You clearly don't know @Thirty One
He's proven all that he needs to prove down in the Q. He's in the NHL when ever they start up again.
to me this is a no brainer for him. the Q season will start like 10/1 and the draft is 10/9. all that could happen is he gets hurt before the draft. smart to get drafted and then talk to the rangers about what he should do...hopefully by then we have dates set for next season training camp and then working with the rangers they can determine if its better for the kid go play somewhere for a few months or just get ready for camp

I can’t tell if you’re serious. I think you are. You really have it out for this kid eh? What’s the deal?
I'd get his ass down to CT or where ever and have him start training with the guys the second after he gets drafted.

I think Mark Messier should call him and tell him if he wants to win a Stanley Cup In NY he needs to learn to play center and dominate from the middle like Mess did when he was a kid.
Too good too much vision and strength to play the wing because you don’t like to defend. Puck should be on his stick as much as possible. Maybe his skating used to hold him back or his consistency. Those aren’t weaknesses anymore. Make the switch
