That’s alright. Even though it looks ripe for a buyout, some are still finding a way to call that contract part of Drury’s genius.

Too many posters can’t see past next week when deciding whether they like something.

The Devils are gonna be really good sooner rather than later

at this point they probably have the best young talent pool in hockey and they have enough good pieces to at least be a playoff team

They weren’t afraid of picking in the top 5 for more than 2 years in a row.

Just listening to 32 thoughts segment on gaudreau and Philly, and it's honestly insane that they didn't make a run at him. That could be a decision that they'll rue forever lol. Johnny leaves 15mil on the table for Columbus, who's to say he doesn't go 7x9 for Philly? Having him at that number would be insane.

It's a shame too kind of. Obv i hate the flyers but I love to hate them and id rather them be good (and us better) bc it's a very fun rivalry. Honestly Raleigh makes for a lame archival lol

Who made up this narrative that Trocheck is fast lol
Fans are gonna be very disappointed, search Trocheck with the words fast or speed and you’ll just see a few posts from Ranger fans the past few days saying he’s fast lol no one talked about his speed before, except all the posts I’ve found complaining about how slow he’s become. Watch him on YouTube, he’s not fast at all.

Playing on a line with Panarin he’ll look pretty fast.

If Vanecek and Blackwood are even average they are going to be a borderline playoff team. Palat and Marino are very good additions and they gave up nothing important to acquire them. You are underestimating them if you don't think they are going to be much tougher next season.

Their success is going to come down to the health of Hughes and Hischer.

Neither have proven to be durable.

It’s Jeff Petry. He’s being traded to Pitt

Now this is a good pick up for them.

Wonder what’s going the other way.

Probably Zucker and/or Kapenen, who will end up going to Winnipeg in the Dubois trade.

when you finish bottom 10 for like 8 years in a row yeah you're gonna stock up some nice prospects. Doesn't mean they pan out. A year ago Ty Smith was a future #1 D lol. Hughes is an offensive star, Mercer will be a good player , but who knows about their D prospects. They look good now, but will they be stars? A few years ago we had the best prospect pool in the world. We got a Vezina winner and Norris winner out of it, to add to already elite players like Zib and Panarin.

Can they replicate it? doubtful.

Penguins are old as f*** now lol. Petry is still very solid though.

He fits their core. All 34 and up lol. They'll easily make the playoffs and then lose in round 1 again. They're delusional from how we almost let them win round 1, they're not a contender.

I'm not saying he does, I think he's a good player but I see all these people talking about him as if he's Pavel Bure lol. Nobody talked about him being fast, and when they talked about his skating they said he's slow; until we signed him.

Who, specifically, said he was a speed demon?

Countless posts man, I don’t want to call out people individually they’re probably just reciting what they heard and are excited about our signing. Even those fan blogs are calling him speedy, fast, etc. I’m not saying he’s a bad player at all, but watching highlights of him he hasn’t shown one bit of this supposed speed

Is he faster than Ryan Strome? Does he engage physically better than Ryan Strome does?

Goodrow's contract is structured weird. Makes me wonder if a buy-out after year 2 was on their minds when they drew it up.

The only bad year is 26-27.

With a Goodrow buyout, Kakko 2 year bridge deal at $2.4M AAV and the $1M cap increase, the Rangers have nearly $23M in space for 23-24. $22,940,476. $83,500,000 cap in 23-24.

Without buying out Goodrow, one of Chytil, Laf, Miller, Lindgren are definitely on the way out. Laf and Miller are very unlikely but one of the other two could be forced out. Even with buying out Goodrow it would be a tight fit to keep everyone but it's doable.

The Rangers must and always have to have someone being bought out at a cost on the books. $3.4M comes off the books in 365 days. I can see it.

That's what happens when you continuously overpay for players. But in Goodrow's case with the way his contract is structured it doesn't really hurt the team at all outside of 2026.

Petry and Poehling for Matheson and a 2023 4th.
Click to expand...
Is that really the deal?

Not good. Pens got much better today. They upgraded Marino to Petry and shed Matheson who's terrible and addition by subtraction. Three goals in the series against us went in off his skate due to terrible positioning.

Have fun dealing with that fan base. I see it is already happening. It'll just get worse

MTL was pretty bad with discussions with the second overall, I don't mind Miller as a Devils fan but I'd love to aim higher + younger to fit with this core better. Severson+ for Nylander would be my thinking especially with the Leafs being linked to Severson multiple times in the past. Hopefully Devils-Rangers games could actually be fun again like 2012, but an awful decade so far lol. One of us ends up being bad every season since.
