The Post has confirmed that Vitali Kravtsov’s camp has requested that No. 74 be moved ahead of the March 3 deadline if he is not a part of the club’s immediate plans.
after having been reinserted into the lineup the previous night against Seattle following four straight in street clothes indicates that he is not.
That is the pool in which Kravtsov belongs. The talented and personable Russian plays on the outside. He does not win enough of the 50-50’s. He does not get to the net. His 200-foot game both with and without the puck remains suspect. He has not been able to carve out a role as a difference-maker, even for a night or two. His contributions diminished through a run of 17 straight games that ended late last month.
If such options present themselves over the next two-plus weeks, then by means, Drury should make the move. But if not, the Rangers should keep Kravtsov into the offseason and put him back on the market when a wider field of clubs would likely have interest.The Kravtsov Saga is replete with unforced errors on both sides.
