    Laf needs to look good playing with 2 very skilled linemates or the clock on his time here actually starts ticking. I like Cuylle-Tro-Wheeler a lot

    Not a fan of Vesey being a scratch, IMO he’s easily better than Pitlick. Admittedly that’s a nitpick, besides that these lines are perfect.

    This is the best roster we can construct. Maybe swap Vesey in.

    Ideally Othhmann looks great in Hartford and earns a spot with the big club allowing us to move out another vet for picks / prospects.

    I wouldn’t mind signing Kane for some RW depth later in the season

    This lineup with Patty Kane and hopefully Gustafson and Trouba playing to the best of their abilities *could *be* a contender

    Huge moment for Lafreniere in his career and tenure with New York, and that third line could produce huge. Would rather Vesey on the 4th line than Pitlick

    Rangers top 3 lines on paper are sick. The top 9 could easily be in the top 5 of the league.. key word – “could”.. Need to put up or shut up this year.

    I like the lines, but someone is going to need to have a sit down with that 2nd line and have a chat about shooting the puck more often.

    Here it is. 4-5 Years of begging the team to play the god damn kids we finally get it. Let’s see how long it lasts.

    Laffy can’t get away from No D Fil; that line will be giving up primo scoring chances; hopefully they will pot a couple

    I don’t know why but i love Cuylle-Tro-Wheels. If only because it means we don’t have Goodie or Vesey on the 3rd line. Both good players but shouldn’t need to roll them with offense in mind.

    Lines are pretty much what everyone’s been asking for so, here we go folks

    I….honestly love those lines. Now can we keep them together long enough to develop some chemistry. I’d love the line blender to be a thing of the past.

    I LOVE the fact that Lav has Chytil as 2C instead of Trochek.

    Now just replace Trochek with Kakko on PP1 and the lines are perfect
