Lias to Hartford, Gettinger recalled.

Thank God. Get him away from this scrub coach and to a real coach.

JD's next move should be going after Cozens and getting rid of that Russian fuckface Kravtsov. Kravtsov might have a higher ceiling but at least I'm confident Cozens will be a better shape, Dubinsky at worst.

I'm going to give Kravtsov the benefit of the doubt this year, being he's still 19/20 and showed he was willing to come over early to train and learn the language. If he feels he needs the comfort of one more year at home to help mature then so be it, but next year there is no Russia clause so he'd better be ready to go. Hopefully they have weight rooms in Traktor.
Gettinger sucks for the most part but with Zib coming back it's pointless to have Andersson on the 4th line. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't play another game in a Ranger uniform before being dealt.

 

[kreidertime]

Nah. I have to believe JD and Quinn already have made the move of Knoblauch in their minds next year. I look at Quinn as a sacrificial lamb at this point. I think they are just going to wait for exit interviews to which I'm sure he will get destroyed by the players. That loser Ruff has to go along with all of Quinn's staff. Let Knoblauch pick all his coaches. AV of course never leaves as long as he wants to work here. He's a genius goalie coach. Andersson will flourish under Knoblauch. You watch. In about 10 games he will get his confidence back and start producing. He will be a big part of our future. There are way too many pussy forwards on this team. Andersson was relentless in the pre-season in front of the net and in the corners before Quinn stabbed him in the back to play inferior talents with his icetime. Andersson will stay. Quinn will go.

Interesting situation coming with Georgiev as he will not be waivers exempt in another 8g, so will they keep him up or bring up Shest who's done great down there?

 

[kreidertime]

Not sure how that all will work but I'm pretty sure they will want to go with Shesterkin and Georgiev down the line. Unless Huska, Wall or Lindbom just blow them off the charts. I've said it for over a year. There is going to be a enormous 4 prospect for one proven NHL, high level young player coming. There are just too many prospects that there isn't room for here. Especially in goal and on defense. I highly doubt the organization will trade Lundkvist. To me, DeAngelo is a guy that will be used in a deal. They aren't moving Trouba. There only righty d man with size. They aren't moving fox. DeAngelo is probably the guy they move.

 

[Ranger71]

Rykov activated by Hartford and Day sent to Greenville.

 

[kreidertime]

Thank God

 

[Ranger71]

Sounds like Toronto is interested in Georgiev, as are a few others I'm sure. Tough call as he is only a few games from passing waivers eligibility. Do you just keep Shest in Hartford this year and figure things out in the offseason or consider trading AG now?

 

[kreidertime]

Ideally I think they want to go with Shesterkin and Georgiev next season. Maybe they know Hank will retire.
