Probably not going very far if you need your 1LW, 1C, 1LD, 2RD to get going…I like our moves and I'm happy we didn't give up too much as Vegas and Florida went all in, we weren't in that kind of position so filling holes with good players gives us a chance without hurting the future. Get Mika going, get Kreider going, Trouba, Lindgren, Igor steals a series...who knows
That's kinda the point, you could add anyone you wanted, if those guys aren't playing well we're toast. On the flip side, if even Zib could get going that would be better than any deadline addition we could have made. I'm hopeful this break with some extra practice could help those guysNobody is telling him he needs to g

That was always going to be the case though….f*** it it's disastrous
whether this works out is purely down to established players
Agreed. The jury is still out but Drury drafting record seems to be better than the previous regime.Good deadline, do what you can this year, next year we have Othmann, Berard, Sykora, etc to pick from, another 1st rounder this season. I'm super happy with Drury for not overreacting
Maybe that's the actual strategy, put the onus back on them instead of telling them that you're going to constantly bring it to other people to help them be good and winf*** it it's disastrous

Agree. This is the Chris Drury I know.Good deadline, do what you can this year, next year we have Othmann, Berard, Sykora, etc to pick from, another 1st rounder this season. I'm super happy with Drury for not overreacting
Rangers aren't winning in the playoffs with a soft passive #1 center. Mika would be the type that would say sorry if he accidentally checked someone on the other teamZibanejad has to show a mean bone in his body and stop the soft spoken, pass happy to his BFF and start shooting puck. That's been his issue all year. He should be attacking the net too. Too soft. Adding Guentzel was never going to suddenly make Zibanejad do this or that. He needs to realize it himself. And, on another note, I am a bit surprised Davidson helped Drury out last minute.
This deadline was like eating reheated chicken fingers.
Cause they didn't overpay. Fans get mad if they overpay, fans get mad if they make bargain trades for under the radar players. Fans are too hard to please. I guess you'd be happy with Kakko Othmann Berard and 1st for Vatrano and SilfverbergWhat a disaster. Drury needs to go
