  1. I try to be positive, it's easy to say, trade now Miller,Garland Boeser, and is much harder to do. We are fans quick to critic, look at Carolina, the top team, and did nothing (almost compare to East teams). Better NO trade than Bad trade!

    It always feels like we are the team who has players nobody wants or teams want to give us the worst return back.

    We (fans) overvalue our players; for example, we paid $56 million for Miller, who now doesn't fit our goals but is still a great player, so we trade him but encourage you to overpay for him because we'll keep him if no one pays too much. Garland and Boeser are treated the same way—if we don't receive our price, we keep them! Guess what, the rest of the league doesn't give a damn; keep them all.

    That guy on HFBoards is hilarious. He’s a rangers fan from Vancouver and now his favourite player is a Canuck :lol:

    He is HILLARIOUS, literally make my day after this post:

    "One of the few players who truly appreciates the aesthetics of the sport and aims not only to win games, but to provide a beautiful visual experience to fans. Watch him in slow motion and it’s truly mesmerizing. His skates melt through the top layer of ice like a knife through butter, crossovers with the grace of ballet on ice; his wavy dirty blonde locs flowing in the wind behind him are just the icing on the cake. He's a true marvel to watch. Kravtsov studies the game, he actually did college courses on sports management and coaching; when he’s out there he isn’t simply a player. Players have become a cog in the wheel, nobody has revolutionized the sport since Patrick Roy with the Butterfly; but Kravtsov is the next revolution in hockey. He is crafting a performance art, all of the drama surrounding him is part of his theatrical nature and will build up into his redemption arc. He has already strategized his entire career with the precision of a Machiavellian genius. Most NHL players play checkers, the McDavids & MacKinnons play chess, Gretzky played 4D chess; Kravtsov plays underwater Madden NFL '06. He takes cues from Elizabethan theatre but with a veneer of the early wave of post-modern satirist playwrites, if you’ve ever dove into Anton Chekhov’s early works some of Kravtsov’s plays will start making a little more sense. Through the eyes of a modern day hockey fan they might not "get" Kravtsov yet, but in the future when stats become advanced enough they'll be able to pin down exactly what it was that made him so special. In a few hundred years his game tape will be in museums, and I'm not talking in the HoF, I'm talking in the Louvre. Kravtsov is bigger than hockey. Gretzky may have been "The Great One", but Kravtsov is "The Chosen One".

    Love how people label a player lazy or a bad attitude when they have no idea about who he is or what he thinks, Unfair! Wait til we watch him here then see if those comments are valid!

    Refused to go to AHL to improve his game, does not get to the net, 200 game with/out pack is a biggest problem (like to play only offence),if he doesn't like something-back to KHL! Don't call this lazy, call something else, it is what it is. 

    I LOVE this trade for Canucks, he is basically free and with other Russian players on our team, good gamble for Canucks.

    Lockwood is a great player who works his ass off.  Krav is nothing but potential with a floater reputation.  It's a reasonable gamble, but NYR could just as easily win big on this trade in the end.

    Lockwood is a great player for AHL, Vancouver (unfortunately) playing in NHL. This is nothing to compare here, even if Kravy go back to Russia for free, we win this deal.
