GDT: Draft Day Bonanza - All rumors/speculation/draft talk here ( Poll Added!)

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Yeah? This years draft is a lot higher on talent.

The point is targeting the right ones is nice, but if you don’t get them it the end does it matter?

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Well Chicago will take him at 8 so their only shot is moving up.

Exactly. If he's available at 7 we have to swap with Vancouver.

Give them 9+one of our 2nd rounders. Even if it takes a little more, move up and get Wahlstrom. Chicago will 100% take him if he's there at 8.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Am I a bad fan for not wearing Rangers gear?

I have a Kreider we bleed blue shirt on but I see everyone decked out in jerseys

 

[Fvital92]

Where are the trades?! Most boring pre draft day, week in years.

"With the 9th overall pick, the New York Rangers are proud to select, from the Ontario Hockey League, Ryan Merkley"

HFNYR collapses inward upon itself creating a black hole.

That is one of the few players I feel there is no chance the Rangers will take.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

If we don't move and the board breaks how most are predicting I think Chicago is going to take Wahlstrom.

Yep so if they’re truly very high on him they need 5-7

 

[NYR]

I guess we'll just have to settle for Tkachuk!

Get'er done JG and I'll never rag on you again..Well maybe a little

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

As for the vote... without a trade up I think they take Kravtsov.

Trade up would be Wahlstrom

You go to box and...You feel shame..

 

[broadwayblue]

Only a couple hours until we draft Bouchard.

im honestly wearing nothing rangers related

i never feel obligated to wear them to rangers gatherings; like, I’m there, I’m obviously a Rangers fan, or at the very least a hockey fan

Thats too high for sure but im one of the few who would absolutely take him at the end of round 1

Alright at least someone is on my side here

Personally he wouldn't even be on my radar till 48 - MAYBE. 70 I definitely take a flier on him.

That's just wrong.
You gotta represent.
I got my Graves jersey on and NYR flag in front of my house going full effect.

I live in an Fishstick neighborhood...

NO Merkley. NO Boqvist. No Woo. No one already carrying serious question marks and injury/concussion histories and maybe that includes Kaut and his little heart whatever. Too many tremendous, high ceiling prospects here without early warning signs... take those.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

I have my Rangers discover card in my wallet that’s representing somewhat I guess?

 

[Vitto79]

Hayes and Staal for Lindholm and TVR

 

[Ghost of jas]

Hayes and Staal for Lindholm and TVR

[Vitto79]

Why?

Dump staal

‘With the 9th overall spot, the New York Rangers select Isac Lundeström. Over to you Pierre, what is your thoughts on this selection, a bit of a surprise? The New York Rangers two season ago really liked what they got from another Swede, Oscar Lindberg, and with this selection they get a player in Isac Lundeström who not only is from the same neck of the woods as Oscar Lindberg but also plays the same style. We have an interview with Jeff Gorton. Obviously we are thrilled with this pick, Lundeström and Dahlin has been at the top of our list all year.”

Thoughts?

You should be arrested for war crimes.

 

[Ola]

Lol imagine if we draft K’Andre Miller or Quinton Hughes, if Pierre compares them to like Brent Burns or Brian Leetch half the board will be supporters for life. But what if the first name Pierre mentions is like Tom Poti? That could literary ruin these guys careers...

This was physically painful.
