Waived: Goodrow waived (claimed by San Jose Sharks)

[Ruggs225]

Interesting move. Maybe a team like SJS or CHI bites to help lead their youth movements

Do you think he made some pizza over the weekend for a meeting with Goodrow?

He broke the news to him at the Fairfield Colony Grill on Post Road

Hard to imagine there's not a young team out there that doesnt grab Goody.

I think this may indicate the Rangers are going big game hunting this off season.

What does this mean dollars and sense wise? Or is this just a precursor to a buyout if they cant find a trade?

Goodrow was/is a warrior but his reputation among Ranger fans will never be good because of his contract, and I wish him well. At least he had his playoff moments. Wouldve preferred not to go this route, but its kind of a no brainer.

Let me look on CapFriendly. Oh wait...

Idk about big game hunting but theyve got a lot more options with a free 4 mil in cap space

Still around for a bit!

Trouba should take notes. This will be his future as well. Maybe not this year, but definitely in the cards.

 

[LOFIN]

So if someone claims Goodrow and the Rangers get 3.6 mil in cap space for free, it wasnt a smart move? Maybe Goodrow blocked a deal to Chicago or san Jose and Drury outmanuevered him. The cap space is far more valuable than any mid round draft pick.

Well obviously if it works out (and I have a feeling it will work out and someone claims him) then yes, for us this is a smart move. I guess I misworded it: it kinda shows that there is not enough interest in Goodrow (from 17 teams) to work out a trade.

I'm 100% on board with getting rid of him. Nice playoffs, but begone.

The unique cap credit was available last summer. Two cap credits instead of just one cap credit.

I live a half hour from there. Never had the pie. New Haven’s way better.

 

[zlev]

they're just gonna use the cap space to give Igor his $12m AAV extension

 

[JimmyG89]

Interesting that anyone can claim Goodrow, and he can't block it. Smart move by Pizza Man. Trouba next?

I do wonder if he worked out a deal and Goodrow said no. All the reporters got the memo from Drury about how much they respect him. I guess we'll find out soon enough if someone claims him. I have a feeling someone will, especially the floor teams.

He can PK and that's really about it, but some teams need that and need a veteran to help their younger players. He'd be perfect for that role.

 

[Levitate]

Guy cracks me up. Is his source Friedman?

I don't really get why people get so up in arms about Vince. He's not a "break secret news because he has snitches in the organization" reporter but yeah I'm sure he checked with the Rangers about whether it was true and got a little extra info from his contacts with the Rangers.

He doesn't have breaking news sources but if you think he doesn't talk to the organization and get info directly from them (rather than Friedman who likely just gets stuff from league sources) then I think you're out to lunch

This is the most Connecticut shit I've ever heard.

I thought it was for Lindgren's $4.6 x 5 extension.

Huge Igor fan but no way should we give any goalie 12 million. His best buddy just got 8 million. Yes I know he had a tough ending to his season but still.
If Igor is happy here 8.5-9.5 million range please.

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.

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.

Pizza, it’s what we do best! Taxes, too but I digress!!!!

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

Rangers can technically do this do Trouba as well. Would be quite Machiavellian but if no one wants Jacob it could be a time bomb on the locker room if the team isnt willing to buy him out.

Colony is just 'ok'. Gotta get the hot oil if you have to eat from there.

I don't want to do conspiracy theories, but maybe at his exit interview Goodrow shouldn't have said team darlings Panarin and Zibanejad are playoff imbeciles and that Trocheck's Gran-ma-ma could've had more playoff production.
