GDT: 2021 NHL Draft

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

The Buch deal isn't going to cripple us.

It was still very bad.

both things can be true.

 

[EpicDing]

According to what math?

The correct number is 30, he had 28 in 76 over the last 2 seasons.

 

[Alluckks]

I’d love to get Kent Johnson

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

The Buch deal isn't going to cripple us.

Correct. Like the McDonagh/Miller trade. Doesn't cripple us. It's just incredibly stupid and one-sided.

 

[EpicDing]

I mean yes but people are acting like the franchise is going to fold. It's a little ridiculous.

 

[Savant]

I like how every guy we get is characterized as a 4th liner even though they rarely if ever actually have played on the 4th line.

I mean do you want to see what the Blues fans think of him or do you want to see that NYR beat writers like Vince are putting him on the 4th line too? Or do you want to look at the fact than he has never put up more than 20 points in a season and the analytical models see him as barely over a replacement player If you are a Blais scholar please enlighten us.

Thats too bad because you are getting another fourth line grinder, Tyler Boucher.

 

[JHS]

Eichel trade happening or not is the most interesting part of this draft night for me. Can see positives and negatives to both but leaning towards no.

 

[Fitzy]

I mean yes but people are acting like the franchise is going to fold. It's a little ridiculous.

I think because the first two moves from our brandy new gm are both… underwhelming

 

[AirGut]

Get ready lads


hope you're all cozy tonight

 

[Hitch16]

No matter who Drury picks tonight - he is going to get flamed on this board.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

we're gonna draft the hardest LW with limited upside to play against at 15

 

[Synergy27]

How do other teams trade their overrated big names for absurd ransoms and we trade our underrated budding start for scraps? Oh, right, because pedigree and cache win the day in the good old boys NHL. These guys are idiots.

Are we forgetting firing Quinn and signing Lindgren? Trading Howden? Hiring Gallant?

 

[rangers1314]

Getting a solid base of substances into my system so whatever pain is coming next won’t hurt as much

 

[will1066]

What's with the music? I thought Bettman was speaking in a construction zone.

 

[NYRangers0723]

. Buffalo wants a kings ransom still so it’s a good thing it’s not happening

 

[Doctyl]

No matter who Drury picks tonight - he is going to get flamed on this board.

Unless it’s Svechkov

 

[TominNC]

Lot of love around here for Eichel.

 

[New York RKY]

Are we forgetting firing Quinn and signing Lindgren? Trading Howden? Hiring Gallant?

Yes because it doesn’t fit the narrative, duh!

 

[NYRFANMANI]

No matter who Drury picks tonight - he is going to get flamed on this board.

No. Afaic he got flamed accordingly to the last trade. And some people go overboard because they disliked the previous moves.

He'll get flamed more if we trade the pick is my call. I sure will.

 

[Rsswmu]

According to what math?

Pulled 18 points 2 years ago my bad. Last year was 34 point pace.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Lot of love around here for Eichel.

That is a disaster in the making most sane folk here want no part of.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Lot of love around here for Eichel.

On the Rangers he’s a 100 pt center. Not even 25 years old yet.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

No matter who Drury picks tonight - he is going to get flamed on this board.

After that trade, I’m not sure I trust Drury to successfully pick his nose.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Pros
Gallant
Lindgren contract
targeting the right kind of players
signing Nils Lundqvist
getting Howden as far away into the sun as possible

Cons
paying a 50% tax to get #3 above.
