@Surrounded By Ahos I think ol' Pavel Buchnevich is overanalyzing things just a wee bit on the main board.

That last GIF of Rod had me literally laughing out loud.
They are trying to spin New York’s lack of depth as a positive. I give em credit for trying that hard.

The rod gif was the only possible response. What dumbf*** would think that Rod would put Staal on the fourth line? I made the same face when I read their post.

Rangers fan here - most of our board likes you guys. The Hurri-Karens thing is just light hearted. I actually think the Canes are one of the most universally liked teams on our board, everyone seems to think you’ve got a good group that’s fun to watch. I’m anticipating a good series.

LIAR...he's 100% certain someone here suggested Geekie 2C / Staal 4C and even if was 1 person it means Canes have no continuity while Rags do! Explanations of how good depth works (changing lines, testing chem, reward/demotion, matchups) BE DAMNED

You could make an argument for Fox being the 3rd best defenseman in the series, behind Hamilton and Slavin, but that's pretty debatable. DeAngelo has an argument to be made that he was the Rangers' best defenseman this year, and though Trouba had a bad year, he's been a very good player historically, as well.

That's stupid. If you gonna put your scoring in the top lines, the opponent's gonna know it and assign best defense there.

Are we sure they're not trying to fool us?

The best strategy is to give your superstars limited minutes on the 4th line. That way, they take everyone off guard and score lots of points.
