3 of the top 5 draft picks in 2014...Ekblad, Reinhart, and Sam Bennett. The Rangers need to give Kakko more time, but it looks like he is on notice.

@John-ny5vh 24 күн бұрын

How much time...guys a sissy

@Kappadon1226 22 күн бұрын

Im torn i like the kakko alot good kid wants to be here i do believe he will.become a good 2 way player in coming yrs i think he has it in him the only thing is he is soft . N we need to get tougher man idk

@Kappadon1226 22 күн бұрын

Hes got size so it aint like hes a little dude maybe itll come man i hope it does

@sypyo64 25 күн бұрын

He is still youung at 23. I do not like giving up on him this early. Remember J.T Miller??? This is a show me contract. So Kaapo, let's go, show them...

@shawnlewin9057 25 күн бұрын

Agreed although he’s probably gone next year with Laf and Igor needing contracts

@jon-pauljeandron4439 24 күн бұрын

We all have to remember the rangers are ranked at the bottom as far as developing young players so everyone relax he is coming along

@froozen1 24 күн бұрын

We need to stop thinking of Kakko as a 2nd overall bust and start thinking of him as a very capable 3rd line defensive forward.

@1189paris 24 күн бұрын

He has good hands who has the ability to score. He should play on the on the Rangers 2nd Power Play Unit next year.

@jamesisrael4294 23 күн бұрын

He’s actually a bust and a huge one

@jamesisrael4294 23 күн бұрын

Remember when ranger fans cheered when the devils Took Hughes over Kakko

@shawnlewin9057 23 күн бұрын

Lol that never happened. Everyone knew Hughes 1 Kakko 2

@michaelmorello9772 24 күн бұрын

I like the idea of moving Laf upto the first line and letting Kakko play with Bread and Trocheck on the second line. I think he can fit well with those two and do the dirty work below the net.

@rodchester3 24 күн бұрын

Bread and kakko have shown good chemistry together in the past but haven’t ever really played together for an extended time

@Wu_36 24 күн бұрын

12 months ago insert Laf into this very same conversation and look what transpired since then. Keep the kid.

20 pts over 70 games is my prediction for KK.

@whitegd4100 24 күн бұрын

So it’s 3 different coaches fault that kakko doesn’t perform?

@whitegd4100 24 күн бұрын

I know he’s 23…. But this is what he is. He should’ve been traded in 2022 after the playoffs

@1189paris 24 күн бұрын

He didn’t get traded because the Kid Line did well in the 2022 playoffs.

Bad move, Taco should have went

Get ready for the chaos offseason if Kakko has a breakout season and Laf takes a step back

@juans3728 24 күн бұрын

He proofs his skeptics wrong he will be a Ranger longer.

@1189paris 24 күн бұрын

I would move on from K’andre Miller. He’s a tall finesse defenseman who’s not physical and gives up the puck too much. Brendan Schneider and Zac Jones are the future of the Rangers.

@seanl67 25 күн бұрын

If he doesn't put up between 30-40 points next season, hes not worth the money. To me he's already a bust, but i know a lot of delusional Ranger fans seem to have faith in him. He's been in the league 5 seasons now and hasn't shown even the slightest hint he will be what was expected of him as the 2nd overall pick.

@johnharmon536 24 күн бұрын

Nah. Delusional is thinking Jacob Trouba is worth 8 mill a year. Thinking Kakko might still turn it around is optimistic.
