I'll take cap hell in exchange for a Stanley Cup.

Why? Pinto is younger and a local guy. Chytil is a walking question mark for us

I think Chytil is better. Don’t want to get worse just to get healthier.

I know it's not the same thing as normal people jobs, but could you imagine a corporation saying:

"You're not good enough to work for us, but we'll give you a million dollars to practice and occasionally fill in when people take their PTO."

and Mika being bad at 5v5

That's fixable in house

They just signed like 900 defensemen too.

Guess they wanted to bring him back so he can go from being the 9th guy on the depth chart to the 10th.

didn't Brooks say the decision on Trouba has already been made? So what's the holdup?

That there are no buyers?

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Gotta be honest, after being told that big huge changes were coming, you pair today with the draft and it’s a bit of a buzz kill lol

I would imagine Trouba's agent is being a hardass. Rangers are probably waiting to see if they can make a trade before they decide to put him on waivers.

Decision has been made by NYR that he will not be back. So he will be traded, or waived, or bought out. The holdup is Trouba. Will he accept a trade or will he force NYR to take action.

 

[Atax]

So as it stands we added a 3rd line grinder who will be plugged into the 2nd line and a 4th line center. 2nd round exit.

I'd argue that Washington has propelled themselves into the conversation as a contender next season. Their defense, which was a major hindrance last season, became a strength today with Roy and Chychrun and they added Mangiapane and Duhaime who will make them harder to play against.

Nah, they improved their position for a playoff spot but their roster across the board is below of being called contender level.

 

[Leonardo87]

Between the Rangers and Ducks this FA has been very underwhelming for me. But looking at most of these ridiculous contracts given out, maybe it’s for the best. I already see several future buy outs on the horizon.

My only issue, Rangers are competing now so maybe Drury needs to be riskier. I dunno.

No inside scoop there. I believe that has been made clear in the last 48 hours by several reporters.

Yeah I'd be more scared of Washington if their core players werent washed, unmotivated or injured.

Their roster looks way worse when you consider Oshie and Carlson are hanging by a thread, Backstrom aint coming back and Ovi could care less about anything but sitting in his office. Banking on Lindgren could backfire too.

Yeah I think Drury is operating outside of any Trouba decision. He wont be back.

Yeah, just look at that return. Must have been kicking his door down

Now I can officially give Drury an F for today.

Oshie is done. Pretty sure he said he wasn't coming back.

They did add Thompson in net though who is... capable so even if Lindgren decides to be the goalie version of his brother they have someone who is more than able to string together some solid starts along the way.
