Rangers Claim Kaliyev, Domi Fined, Chiasson Retires, USA Wins Back to Back

[@FirewagonHockey]

Chiasson stuck at it and never went overseas despite not being an NHL regular during the latter half of his career 👏

[@davidtuttle7556]

Key role player who scored a key goal in the SCF for the Caps. Fare thee well Alex.

[@user-iz3gv5vo6b]

He must have the most (or nearly) successful PTOs of any player in the NHL.

[@stanschmenge1965]

not sure what the number of games is to qualify for an NHL pension or if hitting thresholds of games gets you a better pension, but that may have been a factor in him sticking it out.

[@HarrisonHollers]

As an American, I LOVE THE BOOING! The American players seemed to revel in the attention and “hate.” While it made the crowd even more energized and leads to better hockey on the ice! Despite what people say in their attempts to criticize these various hockey tournaments, putting on your country’s jersey and representing who you are means something!

[@lrba5524]

I think i've said this before, but I think the max fine should be decided by % of cap hit with 5k being the max for a league minimum player. This would reign in guys like Wilson (or whoever the dirty, but also good player is these days) while also not unfairly threatening guys getting called up for physicality.

[@SnowMexican69420]

[@seanpoulton2446]

He’s such a hard worker too. It’s great to see it pay off

[@RRaquello]

Domi & Hathaway have a history. Back at the beginning of their careers they had a fight that didn't go well for Domi (when he played for Phoenix and Hathaway was on Calgary). Domi ended up injured and missed a couple of months. I don't remember what the injury was, but he was pretty bloody at the end of the fight. I don't know if he was thinking back that far, but I wouldn't be surprised. Plus, Kailyev becomes the second Staten Island player to play for the Rangers, after Nick Fotiu. He wasn't born here but grew up here. Still, that's nothing because Columbus has two Staten Island players right now at the same time (Aston-Reese and Labanc).

[@MarkCMG]

Thanks for the video! Good info, details, and insights!

[@kylec10]

I wonder what would have happened with Kaliyev if he didn’t get injured in preseason. I wish he could have got an opportunity this season, as he has a great shot and could have helped our crap power play possibly.

[@seanragsdale5636]

I thought Finland was gonna steal it with how their goalie was playing in OT. What a way to win it tho for team USA!

[@peter8367]

happy for kaliyev

i hope arthur can figure it out in NY. bummer it didnt work out in LA. GKG!

[@oscarmurillo4067]

2 things we have learned from the 2025 WJC: 1. This defending champion US team was the first defending champion that proved they were hungry for more. 2. This has to be a wake-up call for Canada because next year is the winter Olympics, and how they are developing is not good enough.

[@RRaquello]

I don't think World Juniors is any indication of how the Olympics will go. The Olympics will be run by NHL professionals. Hockey Canada is a bunch of the type of people who get off on being the big shot in their suburban HOA. Canada will be the favorite in the Olympics and should win. Maybe they don't because there's good competition, but they're still the best team.

[@jamesstemmler7620]

​​@@RRaquelloon top of that the problem with the above thinking is that this WJC outcome could dictate the coming Olympics maybe the Olympics after that but certainly not this one as none of the players from the world juniors are going to be on our Olympic team next year. It's more of an indicator of our development issues becoming a problem in the distant future not the immediate impacts as the current best Canadians as far as the NHL level is concerned are absolutely world class and could compete for a gold medal. Our biggest question mark for next year's Olympics is really the goaltending more than the rest of the team

[@Aerobane]

@@RRaquello Canada will get rolled. Team full of ego's who think they deserve it simply because they're Canadian and none of them will be able to work with other ego filled players. They'll be a dumpster fire.

[@TheCrazyCanuck420]

How do the juniors have anything to do with the olympics? The staff behind the juniors will get canned and they were not going to have anything to do with the olympics anyway.

[@justjohnny420]

I'm looking at the top Canadian NHL players and I'm not seeing development being an issue there

[@jeffreyclinard2002]

Anaheim keeps looking better and better. I'm happy my Golden Knights have already completed a series sweep against them for this season. Their improved play will remain a problem for the rest of the league.

[@andrewgreen815]

Jets split with them, kind of fortunate for us. I concur with your assessment.

[@jkliao6486]

Up to this day, I still don't understand how that Chiasson goal in game 6 went past Murray. There's absolutely zero gap but somehow it went in.

[@douglawrence6066]

Reaves into the lineup for the Leafs next game??

[@arcadeshift5071]

Love seeing Team USA win the WJC on Canadian soil, and I'm sure Canada would relish winning in the US next year. It's part of the rivalry. Canada seems like they've gotten too fat and happy, and some of the other countries seem to be playing with more hunger.

[@bdonaghu]

As a Sabres fan, I'm not too happy that Kevyn Adams didn't even put a claim on Kaliyev, seeing as they're higher on the priority list than NYR. With how much upside Kaliyev has and with Buffalo needing something to happen, it was a no-brainer for Adams...

[@JD200_]

Adding an underachiever to a group of underachievers is likely not a viable way to get said underachiever achieving again

in my humble opinion, Rimpinen deserved to be named MVP more 😔

He was a stud. Hopefully we'll be seeing him in the NHL some day.

Specially he was on the ice lying down. Very skilful guy, but hopefully he stays more upwards when he comes to NHL.

I'm happy for Kaliyev , he will get some much-needed playing time there. Kings have a great roster with plenty of spares.

[@desertdog3473]

It will got to Houston before az

US, eh?!

[@love4adventurz]

Kaliyev I assume is the replacement for Kaako but the Rangers are going to be making more moves, I feel like something is brewing between them and Canucks, as so many insiders mentioned Miller to the Rangers as the only team he would accept a trade to, and then you got Kreider too. Rangers this season are so strange this season, I do not think it has ever happened for a team to win the Presidents trophy, head to the Conference Finals to being near the bottom of the Eastern Conference, but they got to do something as they are not so far out of a playoff spot to fold this season and try again next year.

[@nummytacos128]

I think their system is failing them right now more than anything, since the majority of the players are having down years. I don't think it's coincidence that they're just all individually having bad seasons thus far. A coaching change may be on the table, as crazy as that sounds.

[@WhitneyNewark]

If that Domi hit was on anyone else he’d have a hearing today

[@BunnEFartz]

@WhitneyNewark If that hit was on Matthew Knies the NHL wouldn't even have called a minor penalty.

[@Justthatguy1998]

If that hit was done by any other team the NHL wouldn’t have even looked twice before ignoring it.

[@Leafsdude_]

I thought Kaliyev would end up with the Islanders, but I thought the Rangers would be the dark horse there. I figured the Sharks and Hawks wouldn't be interested in a piece that might hurt their tank. With the Rangers, I thought they might not want the headache of a player with Kaliyev's reputation, but they might also be desperate to find something to turn their fortunes around. The Islanders do have that feel of an organization that thinks it can fix any problem player. Will be interesting to see if Kaliyev can get his numbers back up and stay healthy in MSG.

[@RRaquello]

I don't get the Islanders. They're desperate for goals and if Kaliyev can do anything he can score goals. If it don't work out, you let him go. There's no risk to it. They had dibs on waivers before the Rangers so why not take a chance?

[@bangyahead1]

There is also the fact that the owner of the Coyotes has publicly stated he will never ice another team, even if he still owns the name, history, etc.

[@vipeholmskolan6052]

Hathaway - Reaves coming up next!

[@r2jd]

Domi pisses me off man. If he chose to shoot the puck when he has a clear shot as often as he chooses to take obvious, stupid penalties, he might have more than 3 goals this year.

[@Ryan-pg7uo]

As a coyotes fan, I’ve been sitting on the channel waiting for an update after my Twitter was going crazy

[@NHLCrazy2007]

It is an important first step. Far too early to get excited, but at least it is something positive.

[@NHLCrazy2007]

I'm skeptical of Arthur Kaliyev. If he was not good enough to play for the Kings, what makes him good enough to play for the Rangers? It was interesting how I saw Craig Morgan's tweet literally 2 minutes after he posted it. I was like "Ohhhh okay"... it's an important first stap. You are right in your reaction and expectations @TheHockeyGuy. No sane observer of this will automatically jump the gun. What this news does is provide hope.

[@thejoulesthief6841]

big skater, nasty quick release, PP experience. If you can get him to be a shoot first guy on the Rangers, I think it makes sense where you have a TON of pass first guys (Panarin, Zib, Fox, etc)

[@justjohnny420]

LA is 6th in the league and Rangers are 26th in the league. If a player isn't good enough to crack a roster on one of the top teams it's very much possible he can be good enough to crack a bottom teams roster. Your point only makes sense if the teams positions were reversed

[@mikes7446]

Poor Arthur, domi is a pylon plug on ice

[@abrahamhorowitz8374]

It seems to me that if the Rangers liked Kalyev, the Kings should have tried to trade him for Kakko. I'm sure there's a prospect and draft capital that could've been sent along with him. That would've been a good hockey trade in my mind, with both players needing a change in seanory.

[@Tommydis]

Its been a few videos. Your camera is focus behind you onto your jerseys.

[@BoyNamedSue4]

Troy Terry is very good.

[@TheMemeBorrower.]

Chiasson was the Wayne Gretzky of PTO signings

[@Rorschachqp]

I’m guessing that… Basically the Kings told Kaliyev that his game isn’t developed into what the Kings need but they like him so they encouraged him to play hard so the Kings can trade him to a contender. But when the time came no one was willing to pay a reasonable price so they waived him and he got picked up by a bad team.
