What to Expect When You're Expecting Pavel Buchnevich

The Rangers signed their top forward prospect Pavel Buchnevich to an entry level contract two weeks ago and the expectations and hype for the kid are running really high. After trading away all of their first round picks, as well as fellow top prospects Anthony Duclair and Aleksi Saarela, the Rangers have a very thin prospect pool and this puts a big spotlight on the young winger from Cherepovets, Russia. While everyone is rightfully excited about the prospect of Buchnevich coming to Broadway and becoming the next Vladimir Tarasenko, there does seem to be a bit of hyperbole buzzing around him.
