GDT: Free Agency Frenzy - 2023 (12pm EST)

[Circus86]

Bonino is a good pick up if the cap is low enough

 

[RangersFan1994]

drury needs to sign some goddamn defensemen

Some good dman

 

[LOFIN]

Friedman said that Kane might wait to sign until hes healthy and see how good teams are at that point.

Which to my mind was always the obvious thing to do.

 

[haohmaru]

Drury is a maniac today.

They're not all going to make the team.

Bonino will. Multi-cup winner that still has game.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Bonino at 800k is another nice gamble.

I like that everyone Drury is singing is coming so cheap and with little to no term. Good stuff.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Bonino is f***ing awful.

 

[tlk]

Drury has gone all gerontophylic

 

[irishlaxburger2]

Bonino is f***ing awful.

Pretty sure he's still an elite PKer

 

[LOFIN]

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

Alright well that does it. Damn, no acciari or hathaway. Gonna be looking something like this to start the year

Kreider-zib-kakko
Panarin-chytil-laff
Vesey-trocheck-wheeler
Cuylle-bonino-goodrow

Lindy-fox
Kam-trouba
Jones-schneider
Harpur

Igor
Quick

 

[EdJovanovski]

Bonino is f***ing awful.

That guy sucked and was slow as molasses when I was a kid watching him on the Canucks lol

 

[irishlaxburger2]

If we trade Goodrow (and don't need to retain anything), can we afford Tarasenko?

 

[bigdog16]

Im perfectly fine with Bonino at 800. He can still play

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Hard to imagine that Drury doesn't have deal for Goody lined up at this point

 

[haohmaru]

Well, hell, if you told me at 10AM this morning that Rangers signed Bonino, Quick, and Wheeler for a total AAV of 2.425M I'd say you were still on the sauce from the night before.

Gotta give Drury credit so far.

 

[JimmyG89]

If you sign all the bottom 6 guys, someone has to trade for Goodrow to fill in their void.

4D chess.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

No Othmann? Laf on the right side? No Pitlick?

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

Another great signing in Bonino. Awesome PKer. Usually above 50% in the faceoff circle but last year 48%

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

That guy sucked and was slow as molasses when I was a kid watching him on the Canucks lol

He was awesome after he left. Pittsburgh/Nashville Bonino was a good player.

The version now is this years Ryan Carpenter.

 

[GAGLine]

Hard to imagine that Drury doesn't have deal for Goody lined up at this point

I think if Drury was going to trade him, it would have happened already, and he'd sign one or two guys in the 1-2 mil range instead of all these sub 1 mil guys.

We no longer have the leverage of a buyout, so if we get into a situation where we have to move Goodrow, we'll pay through the nose to do it.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Bonino for 800K is a worthwhile gamble.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Feel like trading Laf today

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

He was awesome after he left. Pittsburgh/Nashville Bonino was a good player.

The version now is this years Ryan Carpenter.

Carpenter has never been anywhere near as good as Bonino at any point in his career.

 

[FIRE DRURY]

Feel like trading Laf today

You shut your whore mouth up.

 

[irishlaxburger2]

Imagine paying Barclay Goodrow $3.6M with where all these bottom 6 players are getting signed for
