Confirmed with Link: Ryan Reaves to NYR for a 3rd

reason #41 why Reavo is awesome

The point is you can make the same arguments for every team's top 3 centers.

Ok, and?

The Rangers aren’t aiming to be just any team. I’m mimicking the best and they usually have great center depth. We need a couple more to get there, for once Strome is gone and Zibanejad declines. You need these guys in the system like yesterday, cause they take 2-4 years to develop; or, you are overpaying like with Eichel. These centers should have been added already, since they haven’t, it needs to happen, like, now. The next moves we make should be adding young centers. More important than a single other grit player.

There are exceptions, of course. Following the rule is a better bet though.

Let’s get Carrier from the Knights next. He is the type that can use more of.

This is so silly. A third is not some incredible asset and Reaves brings a handful of things this team is lacking in. People make this about Wilson and then point out how it’s all about Wilson.

Even for a made up quote, that's very poor grammar.

Obviously not many know the story about Drury having an enforcer on his team during the little league world series win.

They all played like they were 5'6 instead of 5'2

 

[LetsGoRangers2021]

So, that means Johnston is happy Reaves is a Ranger which is contrary to the prevailing narrative, here.

haha… are you trying to sound intelligent on a message board? My point in the post was a joke saying that the more Johnston was on the ice, the better it is for us. Jfc man….

You fail.

Tbh did not like the trade when it happened. However warming up a bit. Rangers need some leadership and think that is what is getting undervalued. Seems like a good funny dude with some great leadership qualities.

Sorry but the players that were added is for a reason and each one of them know/ play an important role.
This team had no heart beat whatsoever.
The skilled players will be able to play much more freely just knowing that other players have their back.
This is what's needed in playoff hockey. This isn't basketball.
Hockey is a grind..

This player has awesome character. That matters especially during tough times. Fans will love this whenever MSG has him mic’ed up. Seems very enthusiastic

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

I guarantee he's going to pants Dave Maloney at some point

I don't care if Ryan doesn't throw down, he's a beast of a man. Not a bad skater. He can do some heavy work taking the body only.

Looking forward to watching him play.

 

[Levitate]

I think it's kind of meh to get him but as long as he's 4th line duty only and maybe not even full time in the lineup then whatever. I have a feeling, especially with the extension, this is more about providing "protection" for the Rangers young kids as they mature

If he's constantly in the lineup getting key minutes and we're tearing our hair out why we're watching him get caved in statistically while a good young crash and bang forth liner is constantly sat then I'll be annoyed

I watched that last gif like 50 times. Wilson obviously has someone else in his sights and- oh no!

Read up on Bass Reeves. Ryan's great-great-great grandfather was 10x more badass than even he is.

Read up on Bass Reeves. Ryan's great-great-great grandfather was 10x more badass than even he is.

I read his wiki page saying he killed 14 criminals and assumed this is some famous historical figure who just shared his last name, then I scrolled down and sure enough he’s actually his great-great-great grandpa LMAO

I think we’re going to like Reaves a lot.

I recall a night when Buch hit Bergeron and the Bruins spent two full periods chasing the kid all around the ice after that hit....and it was a clean hit....the same exact hit Bergeron hurt Mika with and nobody did a damn thing . This was needed.....and the Bruins ....Caps....Isles bitch slapped us when they felt like it as did that McLeod kid in Jersey and Morin in Philly . These were/are needed moves .

Amen.

I love this kind of hammy stuff. Funny and a little disruptive. Reminds me a little of Scott Gomez but actually funny idk. Good energy for sure

everyone loves him

he seemed to be close to Tarasenko too... wonder if that means anything.

 

[duhmetreE]

I'll say it...

Reaves replaced Buch as the resident meme/clown.. He's better at it too.

 

[chosen]

So Ovechkin’s immune to getting hit? Why don’t you try again.

Ovechkin hits and doesn't care about getting hit. You're not going to intimidate him.

 

[chosen]

When Reaves hits him the same he won’t be retaliating. Isn’t that the point!!!!!????

See I can use punctuation the same genius.

Apparently not. Thanks for the laugh.
