Probablement en faisant de la place pour Kakko, si je devais deviner
UPDATE: Brennan Othmann has been assigned to the Hartford Wolf Pack.

I hear KAKKO MUSIC
Wish we built a lead in some of these games to get him some more ice time.
Either way the 🦦 will grow stronger and more powerful with time.
BAH GAD
THATS KAAPO KAKKOS MUSIC
Lav’s use (or lack thereof) of him last night is baffling to me
I have no issues with his use and going back down. He got his feet wet when we had an injury. Let him go back, use some of the lessons he learned and play 16-22 a night back in Hartford.
The Rangers are developing a player the right way I can’t believe my eyes
This makes complete sense. He’s probably not a 4th liner and playing 7 mins a night is bad for his development. They did this with Cuyle last year and it’s paid off nicely
Finnish on that cock hoe, call her Kaapo Kakko
He got a taste of NHL action, and is gonna go back to the AHL with that in mind. Keep progressing, no need to rush.
I have no problem with this.
They’re just gunna double-shift wheeler instead
He looked good in limited ice time, overall a pretty good experience for him I would think. He got a taste, maybe learned a few things he has to work on to succeed at the NHL level, and now he’s back where he can develop.
Some people aren’t going to like this, but it’s the right move. This is the correct way to develop a young prospect.
I’d like to see him getting more time on the right side down there. Regardless of when he makes the big team (likely next season, but who knows), he’s probably going to need to make the same switch Laffy did this year. Laf, Kakko, and Othmann on the right sounds pretty to me.
Send Wheeler instead
I mean if he’s gonna just play 7 minutes a night up here then sending him back down was the right move
He did fine. Will benefit from add time.
