   Sorry about the lack of game tape in this video y'all, with some of my YT friends like OhNyquist having copyright trouble recently I decided to play it safe for now lol

   Lemme down below, what are YOUR thoughts on Kakko's game with Seattle so far? And how good do YOU see him being with the Kraken in the future??

   I am so happy for Kakko! He looks so good in Seattle and that line looks super deadly!

   These videos make no sense. The Rangers cater to their top 4 forwards. They get all of the prime ice time.

   Graviterh should replace Sam on MSG next season – think you'd make a great play by play announcer dude!

   Honestly, I think it's a mental thing. Getting out of NY is a breath of fresh air for Kakko, which probably motivated him to try out new things and give him that extra boost. And when things have worked out for him straight out of the gate, it's just a snowball of success reinforcing his motivation to work even harder.

   Those statistics shown by Nathan were impressive on Kaapo ' s first impact for his new team.

    I have been saying this for a long while the Ranger organization has been utilizing Kakko's talent the wrong way i also stated he will shine for another team which will haunt the N.Y. Rangers and their stupid ways of handling players.

    Man can't just take puck away from Kaapo If Kaapo wants to keep it

    If you watched him play in NYR… he was never bad.. he played well but ont he 3rd not 1st line.. that is the biggest difference.. he was a good payer and a MISTAKE in trading him…

    Canucks should have gotten him to play with pettersson -_-

    As a rangers fan, I loved this guy
    When we drafted him and we did him dirty with coaching changes and chasing the typical washed up stars instead of allowing this guys to thrive until it was too late, soon as he showed signs of improving the locker room went south and they dealt him. I’ll have a reason to watch the kraken now to see how he succeeds

    Rags lost that trade immediately.

    As a Devils fan I ABSOLUTELY LOVE their program and HOPE whoever is in charge of development gets a RAISE and NEVER leaves New York!!

    Trade actually worked for both players and both teams.
    The defenseman the Rangers got has already been a key contributor.
    Kakko suffered from Day# 1 with comparisons to the first pick that year – Hughes.
    Rangers never had a shot at picking Hughes. Draft picks they also received from Seattle should be somewhat useful in this year's draft.
    Better for Kakko and Borgen to find a new start…and both teams are doing better.

    I'm a Rangers fan and I called this the second it happened. Rangers development is a joke. The kid never got more than 20 games in the top 6 at a time. Each time the line (Kreider – Zib – Kakko) had solid analytics just weren't getting puck luck. He also only really got PP1 time in his rookie year and if you watch the highlights from that year most of his chemistry was with Panarin yet he never got ice time with Bread. Instead they opted to give ice time to guys like Fast, Copp, Wheeler, etc. It just never made sense. I'm happy for him and his success in Seattle. Hope he keeps improving and becomes the player we all wanted to see.

    I don't know. When I look at the score sheets, I still see that he scores goals when it's not critical. But if he does contribute via the other players around him, that's a win. I would say Seattle got better tho, with Kakko. The Rangers have one problem, and he is called Drury. They will be wrong, until he is in place, because he lost his team at the GM level. Which is way worst then the coach.
    Just read about Milbury years with NY Islanders.

    No surprise here. As a Rangers fan, it's hard to see, but as a Kakko fan I am so happy. Rangers development has major issues for years and years now. It was not hard to see this coming. Right now, the Rangers organization as a whole is a mess right now.

    Even look at fox. Is he what he could have been? Sure he got his Norris but this season and even the ones after the Norris. Not the same big name guy anymore.

    I really hope it costs them a playoff spot this year

    Who would have thought, trading a #2 pick for a 3rd pairing defender was a bad idea ?? Fire the gm !
