Time for my (new) annual tradition: 2023-24 #NYR season predictions over morning coffee on a glorious October morning.

[Rob C. @RobCelletti]

I’ll still be hosting @BlueSeatsLive, so you’re not fully escaping me.

See you in October. LGR.

Short PSA: as hockey season ends, I’m taking a break from Twitter. Will be back in the fall! If you need quality #NYR takes, the @BlueSeatBlogs team has you covered:

This is the laugh I needed (even though I completely sympathize!) at the end of the first 24 hours of coping.

Was sitting in a crate and barrel down absolutely horrendous while my lady shopped and a true hero employee appeared with an espresso from one of their fancy machines

@DJNYCNY He was first to the puck but got pickpocketed. Soft on his stick.

[Rob C. @RobCelletti]

K’Andre Miller’s game fell apart the last couple of weeks and he was up and down all year. I’m not giving up on him, but next season is year 4. He should be away from Trouba next season, and it’ll be his second in Laviolette’s system. Gotta see consistently good 5v5 metrics.

NYR79 & NYR4

Lots and lots and lots of people calling for Brady Tkachuk and I gotta say… that’s a great idea.

[Rob C. @RobCelletti]

On about 4 hours of sleep, here are my #NYR post-mortem thoughts…

Things I genuinely feel good about:
-Igor (no elaboration needed)
-Laviolette - feels like the right coach for this group
-Lafreniere - has arrived and has a game that translates to the playoffs

[Rob C. @RobCelletti]

You probably need to make 1-2 decisions that will shock people, most of all the team itself. It’s exactly what Florida did when they acquired Tkachuk. Florida’s identity completely follows from that move. Easier said than done, but that’s what it will take.

@waitsfan2 You need multiple “star” centers to win a cup. Trocheck is one of them, but I think it’s fair to say Zibanejad isn’t.

[Rob C. @RobCelletti]

@SprecksNY Appreciate it 👊

I’m sure you have some similar / some differing thoughts, which I’m excited to read

[Rob C. @RobCelletti]

@LGM698624 That is very much not his system. It’s low event hockey but “dump and change” only happens when you spend 45+ seconds chasing in your own end, and are too tired to go play offense afterwards. They want to get the puck out quicker, they just can’t with this personnel.

@JVTNYR94 Gus Forsling was claimed off waivers. There are always guys out there.

@MattCalamia @RLuker12 Bob makes $10M a year. It’s gonna be at least that.
