[Bleed Ranger Blue]

Depth is more than just names and bodies.

Im just really concerned about fitting (insert 2014 mid-first round pick's name here) into the lineup with all of that depth.

See, the bar is set so high for Rangers prospects that if they are not catching the eye of an anonymous poster on HF, they are no good.



You have essentially said nothing. They may or may not succeed, really?
So you don't have any definite opinion on the prospects except you think it's foolish for others to have one?

You need to reread his post because that's not what he said. Personally, I agree with him on kreider and miller.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Let's face facts, our current roster is not so wonderful.

The Rangers could ice the Canadian Olympic team with Hank and Quick in net and you'd say they're not so wonderful. Your opinion on the Rangers is rendered useless by your unbelievable negativity every second of every time you're on the boards.

 

[Kwayry]

I think its quite clear I have a very strong opinion that out of Kreider, Miller, Fast, Lindberg, Kristo, Mashinter, Yogan, and Bourque, plenty of them will never see consistent NHL time. So, yes, I think your opinion earlier of saying "OMG how are we going to fit all these guys into the lineup" is nothing more than a big waste of time.
I'd ask you to mark this post so we can evaluate in 2 years, but something tells me you'll be pushing the same fantasy about the next crop of draft picks.

You are a slippery fella.
1- Why did you bring Mashinter and Bourque into the discussion? I never mentioned them. But you love the straw man, you must be related.
2 - You want to mark this post and come back in 2 years to argue what exactly? Based on the slippery statement you just made, you will be hiding behind what "plenty of them" mean.

And for the record, I didn't say

"OMG how are we going to fit all these guys into the lineup"

You need to improve your reading comprehension. This is what I said.

The Rangers will have a good problem next season. I know it's a long way off

Quite bit different, isn't it? But something tells me that you don't get it.

 

[Drewbackatu*]

The Rangers could ice the Canadian Olympic team with Hank and Quick in net and you'd say they're not so wonderful. Your opinion on the Rangers is rendered useless by your unbelievable negativity every second of every time you're on the boards.

So, do you still think the roster is wonderful?

 

[Eye of Ra]

how has fast been playing so far?

 

[Blue Blooded]

how has fast been playing so far?

One of the few bright spots TBH. Was good against Phoenix and one of the few who managed to not look like the worst player in the history of the sport against the Ducks.

Yep, we are loaded with talent!
