Waived: Goodrow waived (claimed by San Jose Sharks)

[effen]

My wife was a Stag so Ive only been to the Fairfield one. Its a different thing altogether from normal pizza, but still good imo.

Layla's Falafel tho

Stephane Quintal. He had a no trade clause. Sather had a deal worked with Chicago. Q wanted no part of Chicago. Rangers waived him. Hawks claimed him and traded Grosek and Brown to the Rangers for future considerations. 2000.

dang I always wished Grosek could have just been a bit better and made it

Nice, Drury doesn’t have a pizza spot in New Haven. The pizza is amazing here no reason to travel to Fairfield for pie. DM if you want suggestions.

Time for Edstrom to get his chance.

Mmmm. Michal Grosek.

 

[McRanger92]

Shouldve happened this year but the injury in Hartford that put him out for a month probably scuttled that plan.

 

[will1066]

Edmonton claims him and he helps them complete the reverse sweep.

This year or next?

Time for Edstrom to get his chance.

Our Goody just got waived and all you can think about is Edstrom?

 

[McRanger92]

Clearly this is a cap clearing move to sign Patrick Kane (E5)

 

[Machinehead]

This year or next?

Both

And Skinner when he is bought out.

 

[will1066]

Glad that Drury didn't wait around till the end of the Final because it's been slow here.

Let's give them something to talk about.

I like Goodrow. Plays hard and shows up in the playoffs, but he is paid too much. I imagine Drury spoke to Grier. They are miles from the cap floor, let alone the ceiling.

It would be peak Rangers to waive Goodrow to give Lindgren a big contract. I'll wait until he is actually claimed to see what's next.

Even more Rangers luck, no one claims him and then we are seen as treating a hard working respected vet poorly.

This year or next?

Next when the 3-0 Oilers suffer a rash of injuries and put in Barclay Goodrow and Zack Kassian for some reason and the Rangers use this to reverse sweep them to win the Stanley Cup.

 

[haohmaru]

What a f***ing schizophrenic group - all year long crying and praying for Goodrow to get traded or bought out and Drury waives his ass and everyone is in disbelief and cites a few playoff games as reason to not waive him.

This place, sometimes. SMDH.

Guy cracks me up. Is his source Friedman?

Humorous Post of the Day Winner, IMHO.

Are we thinking this is a way to get around the modified no trade ?

Any team can get him then a side deal with that team ?

Would be ruthless lol

 

[mas0764]

Definitely a good move to clear him out, if we are in fact able to do that.

He had a good playoffs, he's kind of a playoff performer. I get that.

But our kids and other core all have plenty of playoff experience now, and we need actual good players more than we need a guy who has grit and experience but otherwise sucks.

Meh. I think players know its a business. Goodrow also had to know he was on borrowed time after not getting bought out last year after a much more embarrassing playoff exit.

Im terrified of the bolded though. I think Drury knows what hes doing, but I have bad defenseman PTSD.

I'd say that ship sailed when we bought out Henrik

Too soon, man.

The vast majority of posters in this thread are supporting the move, so don't really get what you are saying. Like I said, I'm 100% for getting rid of Goodrow. Waiving him in the middle of the Stanley Cup finals kinda caught me off guard, not going to lie to you.

 

[DialUp]

They aren't WAIVING him, Sam, they are YAY-ving him.

[nsvoyageurs]

I did not see this coming. Would've thought he would have some value in a trade where the Rangers wouldn't have to add an asset/retain much in said trade. Hopefully, they can get something back tangible for him and not buy him out.

His time with the team was disappointing, but it wasn't his fault the Rangers gave him that dumb contract. I wish him well.

Yeah I don't really get the timing here.

 

[McRanger92]

12.8 mil (Im assuming he gets claimed but its 13 mil if its just a buyout) in cap space with only Schneider and Lindgren as unsigned RFAs. They can definitely do some things now.

 

[LOFIN]

You would have to assume they had a trade in place with a team, but Goodrow refused to waive his 15-team NTC to go to there. And the Rangers have the word from a GM that they will claim him if the Rangers waive him.
