Not the only guy on the wake and bake crew I see

No waking and baking.

They give Stan Fischler the same experimental amphetamines the Luftwaffe got to fly combat missions for 96 hours straight.

“A rising boat lifts all tides” - Emily Kaplan

Boat is just a euphemism. Her mind was obviously on something else.

 

[GAGLine]

Foegele would be a sneaky solid, Copp-style addition.

As long as he doesn't come at a Copp-style cost.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Schneider is the future here. He gets top4 time next season.

Must move Trouba.

Target is fine but we use futures to get Chychrun

I’m with you if the plan is to move Trouba this offseason.

 

[Circus86]

Going to be such an uproductive from me today. I hope nobody has to earn a living today.

 

[NYR Viper]

Just so we're keeping track:

Patches
Vatrano
Buchnevich
Zucker

Have all been linked to the Rangers so far. Anyone else?

Eberle

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Eberle

Cost aside, If they have a shot at him he would be my number 1 target

Buch of course, especially since hes got term

Im warming to the idea of Patches or Toffoli, but the cost would be wildly different for those two

Vatrano and Zucker are the bottom of the list

 

[Anthony5967]

They're attached to like 12 names. I think that tells us nobody knows what the Rangers are going to do. We are just nervous nellies.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Eberle

Okey dokey:

[NickyFotiu]

This isn’t directed at you specifically but if anyone thinks that Crosby would be willing to come to the Rangers then you must be out yo damn mind and I’d like to have whatever it is you’re smoking.

Lafluer, Gretz, Mess, Jagr, Marcel Dionne, Lindos, etc all came here. Many of the best ever. It could be Sidney's destiny. I think Sid would love a chance to win a ring. If he thought he could do ot here he would enjoy the NY spotlight.

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

Interesting the Larry mentioned Chychrun. I would much rather they add him then anyone else and feel that would give us the strongest team going into the playoffs and perhaps be an even bigger move than any big named winger.

Is Patches any good anymore or is this gonna be Wheeler 2.0. Much rather go with someone young who still has legs and can maybe get hot like Frank did a few years ago (Duclair or someone similar now that he's off the board).

 

[NYR Viper]

Cost aside, If they have a shot at him he would be my number 1 target

If costs come down, I like Eberle a lot.

I am beginning to think that adding another winger, to push Cuylle down and really increase the depth, may be a good idea. If Pacioretty costs something minimal, like a late round pick, I'd add him and someone else

 

[OthmannOut]

With all these options, I feel like the prettiest girl at the dance.

 

[Leonardo87]

I don’t see Vatrano coming to the Rangers. Verbeek wants a haul and he has preached about Vet support and Vatrano brings that.

He has another year on his contract and trading him now without getting a huge return will really send the wrong message.

This is why I think Kakko was the ask for the return who could at least fill a Top 6 role with Vatrano leaving. I don’t think futures only gets it done.

So Drury will likely pass.

 

[Rangerboy030]

If true, Drury needs to pick up an economics textbook and learn what a "sunk cost" is.

 

[Beer League Sniper]

I don’t mind having Goodrow in the lineup for his PK abilities, but he should be a 4th line wing. He should not be a center on any line. He’s beyond bad at it at this point in his career.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Not the only guy on the wake and bake crew I see

Wake and Bake? Isn’t Stan living in Israel?
It’s 5 pm.
On second thought he probably did just wake up from his nap.

Oooh.

So something like this?

Kreider-Mika-Eberle/Buch
Panarin-Trocheck-Laf
Pacioretty-Wennberg-Kakko
Cuylle-Goodrow-Vesey

Brodz, Edstrom

Thats a pretty strong forward lineup

 

[GAGLine]

I’m with you if the plan is to move Trouba this offseason.

Trouba only has 2 years left on his contract. Even if he plays it out, it's unlikely he is here beyond that. We need Schneider because we have absolutely no one behind him with top 4 upside. Scanlin is a lefty and has yet to play an NHL game. Mancini is our only RHD that looks like he might have a chance to play in the NHL.

We have our 1st round picks, but no 2nds and only 1 3rd. It's going to be difficult to rebuild our defensive prospect depth. Even on the left side, we don't have that much.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Watch them trade for Buch while we "chart a course for the future"

Let them. Would hurt their chances at repeating.

 

[Guyute]

I don’t mind having Goodrow in the lineup for his PK abilities, but he should be a 4th line wing. He should not be a center on any line. He’s beyond bad at it at this point in his career.

I've been saying this since he arrived here. Goodrow. Is. Not. A. Center!! He's too slow to keep up.

 

[Ail]

Buch is the best option but I still don't want them to just throw assets at him, or anyone really. No forward acquisition improves the defense. Best move is none or one that brings a guy in for long term plans.

 

[DanielBrassard]

If true, Drury needs to pick up an economics textbook and learn what a "sunk cost" is.

If the price is what’s been reported, how do you pass that up? Especially since he has another year of control.

 

[Circus86]

I really hope Drury doesn't do anything stupid with Vatrano.
