GDT: 2020 NHL Entry Draft

[Vinny DeAngelo]

I just don’t love drafting a guy that if everything goes right in the next 3 years is playing 3rd pair.. you have to assume trouba and Fox are 1-2 on the right side for the next 5 years right?

 

[bleedblue94]

Nyr about to trade for pick 22 now haha

 

[Jackpot]

Rangers going to make a run at Stamkos....Book it...

 

[Edge]

@Edge was Schneider that #6 player on their list?

No he was 12.

Lundell was 6.

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Sam is gonna have a stroke the first game the devils have against the rangers with this kid on the blue line

 

[nyr2k2]

Shakir was someone I wasn't high on. If we traded a third to make the Devils pick him, them I'm good.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

At least it wasn’t Greig

 

[Captain Monglobster]

If I cant pronounce his name I dont want him.

 

[FultonReed]

medulla oblongata

 

[BBKers]

GORDIE CLARKE IS DONE <PLEASE

Schneider will probably stay in junior for at least another year or two. He isn’t someone to pencil in on D until probably 2022 or 2023.

 

[LokiDog]

I like Schneider as a player. I like Schneider a lot if he’s NHL ready in 1-2 years. I’m okay with the idea of balancing the D more and not going with smaller puck movers. If that’s the case, package what it takes to land a 2C. Let Strome walk if you have to, package ADA/Nils/Krav and grab a legitimate 2C. Or top LD.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

NHL teams don't win Cups without guys like Schneider on the backend.

Who cares about Cups I want a fun team to play with in Chel!

 

[Kovalev27]

The Rangers clearly screwed over the Devils. I love it!

Rookie GM mistake. He didn’t read the board properly.

the rangers completely blew up the devils plan there no question

 

[Machinehead]

The Rangers: wanna be hard to play against

Also the Rangers: 0-5 forecheck

 

[mike14]

All year it's "take BPA" (regardless of there being no consensus)
Rangers trade a 3rd so they can get their BPA and suddenly it's "pick for need!"

I truly love this place at draft time

 

[Edge]

FYI - the Rangers also wanted to jump Columbus.

If both Nils and Schneider make a push, you can manage your cap by moving DeAngelo and Trouba. So you backfill. Didn't think Schneider would be on the board at 22.

Trouba has a NMC. He isn’t going anywhere any time soon.

The forseeable future on the right side looks to be Trouba, Fox, and Lundkvist. There’s no room for Schneider.

Trouba would need to move before that NTC kicks in (or has it already?). Otherwise we’ll be losing leverage with any partner and might have to retain salary. It’s a nasty contract unless he starts living up to his expectations — in which case there’s no reason to trade him in the first place.

 

[TheTimTamSlammerMan]

Rangers trad up so Flyers don’t take Sanguinetti or whatever his name is. Flyers get a guy with a name they can’t pronounce. Rangers trade up so NJ doesn’t get Schneider. NJ takes a franchise guy with a funky name.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Schneider is a good pick. Depth is a good thing

This kid either becomes a cheap 4/5 contributor or trade bait in a few years

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Sam is gonna have a stroke the first game the devils have against the rangers with this kid on the blue line

He’s never making the NHL so no worries for Sam

 

[NYRangers16]

Sean Avery's a f***ing role model in my books.

Mine too. Total badass.

 

[effen]

Schneider will probably stay in junior for at least another year or two. He isn’t someone to pencil in on D until probably 2022 or 2023.

Bingo. This team will look VERY different 3 years from now. Projecting the current roster in their existing positions and abilities years down the road is both wrong and illogical.

 

[Machinehead]

If I cant pronounce his name I dont want him.

Good policy imo

 

[Krams]

Holy shit the overreactions

Rangers have been money late in the 1st round, they get the benefit of the doubt from me.
