Could Othmann make the Rangers' roster this season? | Package him in a trade? | Discussion

[@firesiderangers]

I'm sorry about my camera quality i dont know what happened here lol

[@edwinrivera5695]

The kid deserves another chance to crack the lineup.

[@bawags8366]

Othmann better crack the line up if there is any chance to fill the huge hole at RW.

[@goaliecoachmike]

He’s ready & we need speed out there!

[@Hockeistguyalive]

If Kreider and Mika are taking up spots on this roster, all of this means nothing.

[@Hockeistguyalive]

Not giving the kids a chance and keeping players on this team because of NMCs is the reason why this team will NEVER win a cup. I’d turn this organization around by using common sense.

[@loganreifsnider3182]

As much as I want Othmann to make the lineup, it does make sense for him to stay in Hartford as long as possible. If he can replicate or do even better than this past season he's gonna be ready to go

[@jfphotography69]

The reason Wayne Gretsky was traded was to help expand the NHL, which it did.

[@DylanMucc1n1]

All I gotta say is that I’m not excited for the first half of this season, but we’ll see. Lgr

[@SamWesting]

Let Kakko make it or break it on the 1st line. Don’t let Othmann languish in the bottom 6. Much better off in Hartford getting top 6 & PP minutes w/Perreault.

[@1rtt1]

Yes and trade Laughreniere while you can get value in return.

[@alhirschen6099]

Need to trade for a defenseman that other teams forward will think twice turning their backs to them to play the puck in the corner.

[@MottoGS]

Congrats on 2k subs

[@firesiderangers]

🎉

[@loganreifsnider3182]

Mika line should not be the top line. Trocheks line is our top line. Kreids and Mika and Smith should be 2nd

[@Agentsmith212]

here is the problem about nyr development. why do they need to be a perfect product before they get called up? if the player deserves it, create the spot.

[@rman52]

Makes no difference. Othman will be beaten up by Florida if they get that far. They need toughness on both lines. And an agitating tough leader like Tkachuk.

[@JohnnyReno71]

10- 16-13 1st line 20-93-91 2nd 50-72-24 3rd 26-22-73 4th Unless they bring another player

[@loganreifsnider3182]

Would still like to see if we could trade for Dominik Kubalik

[@lancemartin1836]

Same dude, would love to see kubalik in a rangers sweater, he’s also a UFA rn so we wouldn’t even need to trade for him. Probably won’t happen though, rangers management is asleep at the wheel

[@piptampa1811]

So, based on these posts, unless you win the Cup, the team is a loser. Best record they ever had, but they didn't;t win the cup so they are losers. Last year we saw some of the best hockey we have ever seen but they didn't win the cup so they are losers. A bounce here, a missed post there and we are in the finals. But they are losers. Got it.

[@collinalcabesFSR]

The only thing people will remember from this year is who won the cup but i do think they had a great year with a lot of positives to build off of going into next season

[@stephenarrigo5679]

That is correct...The overarching goal for EVERY NHL organization is to win the Stanley Cup...Anything less is a disappointment.

[@1rtt1]

If they don't, I say fuck this organization. Been a fan since 1976. And have watched them get rid of talent for schmucks for way too long. From Rick Middleton for Hodge to Brian Leetch for who?? on to 2019 first round pick back to Winnipeg along with Pionk for Trouba, LMFAO. This kid has shown he can play, has desire and gumption. I still say trade Lafreniere while you can before he becomes a Manny Malhotra on a grander scale. This organization is pathetic. And I'm an ass for rooting for them.

[@geneparadiso6258]

They suck

[@mikefreeman3975]

I'd still like to see KK back on the top line, with Mika & Kreider, for at least the first 30 games. Make it work, finally, as KK is a puck control, back checking, solid D RW Mika and Kreider require.

[@dock_yard1149]

But the main problem persists. Kreider AND Mika playing together at even strength. On the PP -- OK. 5 on 5 -- no magic there. A lot more lineup shifting should be considered.
