Rangers vs Kraken game 9

[NYR Fan]

The FO issue is on Drury IMO. It was a big need, and he decided to ignore it. I think that plays some role in their puck possession issues also since they lose FO's all the time and never start with the puck.

Overall I still think this is a flawed team when it comes to being a lock playoff team, and being a legit contender. They can make the playoffs but no way are they a lock it in for sure. I just don't see it.

It can't be disputed that the Rangers have made little to no effort to develop Kakko and Lafreniere as cornerstone players. Lafreniere's line is a fucking joke. Thus why there is little to no hope that this team will ever be a serious contender. Barron was by far the best faceoff off guy in the pre-season. How was he rewarded? Useless pile of shit McKegg plays over him as well as Hunt. I expected more from Gallant who had a reputation as a good coach. This is where if we had a real GM he would solve the problem. He would trade McKegg, Hunt and Gauthier immediately and give the coach no other option but to play Barron.
