New York Rangers: How was Vitali Kravtsov’s season?

To call this season a disappointment for Vitali Kravtsov would be an understatement. It all started with an expectation of playing in the NHL for the New York Rangers, then he was sent to the AHL whereupon he bolted to Russia where he was demoted from the KHL and finally, he returned to Hartford.

Is Kravtsov a reclamation project, a failed first round draft pick or was he just a 19 year old kid who wasn’t ready to be promoted? Looking at his season, the truth is probably that he was a victim of unfair expectations.
