GDT: Free Agency Frenzy July 1st @ 12pm ET (Apparently it's not 12pm)

[Oscar Lindberg]

More assets out for a rental.

Yeah, will wait till the details are announced but this was my first thought.

Every other team is fixing their holes with cash and we are sitting here trying to make a deal with prospects and picks

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Watch we trade Kakko for Smith

I sincerely f***ing hope not.

 

[NYR Viper]

Brendan Smith to Dallas. He's a #7, they still only have (4) NHL d-men

 

[zlev]

lol this would've been fine for us, now we're gonna give Lindgren 5x6 or something. i hate this team.

Yzerman was supposed to take Trouba not Gus. We got bamboozelt.

 

[17futurecap]

A nothing contract for Gus, but fine playing Jones next year.

 

[McRanger92]

Reilly Smith? Trade?
I'm so f***ing done with Drury

Same amount of points last year as DeBrusk who just got 40 mil on the open market

four years? Jesus. Way to go, Lou.

Jake DeBrusk was a first round pick.

How dare you.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Drury is not even looking at dmen . He’s focused on getting a RW because Zibumejad asked for one publicly

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

Again depending on thr cost and usage (IE 3rd line wing), Smith is a good add.

 

[NYR Viper]

It's all about the cost for Reilly Smith. I wouldn't pay much...

Maybe Vesey for Smith and move on

phew didn't want this guy

 

[hardnosed]

Herman brings up a pretty good point on twitter. Even if we do move Trouba the options to use that open cap are at basically 0 when it comes to free agency. Really makes you wonder if there is something bigger in the works. Tkachuk, Marner??

We have seen it before, Drury moves quietly

Don't know about those 2 names, but something is up. Even last year, with no money, we already added Quick, Wheeler, Gus, Nick, Pitlick. Nobody this year. Something is going on.

 

[Ruggs225]

You have such negative comments but know that his weekend was not ruined. Because he was sleeping all weekend.

On some things yes, I have negative comments. Chris Drury is one of those things. He has been a plague on this franchise since we signed him as a FA.

On other things, such as Laf last offseason and Kakko this year I am one of the most upbeat and positive posters.

But I tend to dig my heals in.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Reilly Smith lol. I mean he's a fine player and of course the rangers are going the rental route. Whatever.

 

[effen]

Drury showing if you put in your time and work hard, the org will give you a real deal chance: Jonny Brodzinski, Zac Jones.

[McRanger92]

Trouba for Reilly Smith?

 

[zlev]

smith is fine and will probably just be a salary dump, i doubt we would give up very much.

 

[LOFIN]

Welp, hold on to your butts

 

[AlaBlueShirt]

Drury is not even looking at dmen . He’s focused on getting a RW because Zibumejad asked for one publicly

He's lost ever since Sather's work number has been offline

 

[RangersFan1994]

Hollowell signs with Pens

 

[RangerBoy]

bruce garrioach the OTT reporter said OTT was desperate trying to acquire a RHD through any means but no one wanted to sign in OTT or waive to go there. They want to compete this year desperately and they took less to acquire Jensen. We didn't have the RHD that could make that trade work. Ottawa took less value in order to have a better D corp immediately.

Staios said a few days ago Ottawa was looking to make the pieces fit.

 

[SA16]

If we're trading for Reilly Smith keep him away from wedding's at all costs.
