if you get k'andre i don't really care which of hronek or willander you pair him with. the point is you have hughes, hronek, willander, k'andre.

Why would rangers sell??

There's also this bit

The Penguins have let teams know that they are open for business. According to a couple of sources, their preference is young NHL players, followed by already-drafted prospects, followed by picks. The return for Eller — a third-rounder and a fifth-rounder — is typical for an unrestricted-free-agent-to-be. But, by clearing his salary (they did not have to retain), it opens flexibility to explore other options.

The info from the local reporter made it seem like they basically only wanted NHLers, or at least as the primary piece(s) in return. This says it's not a requirement.

I thought it was obvious that wasn’t the case in the same way it’s always like that. We did the same argument with Horvat and that by makings future deal gives ammunition to go hunting (ie: Hronek).

Definitely worth highlighting.

Why would rangers sell??

Poor counting stats since getting moved away from Fox. Need to clear space for Shesterkin’s next contract. Chance to sell high and grab help for the run this year.

It’s very unlikely, though.

People need to stop bringing up Samuelsson... dude is cooked by injuries.

Contract is just way too risky. 5 more years after this one.

Why would rangers sell??

Because they like us and want us to do well

 

[rypper]

Because they like us and want us to do well

They feel like they owe us one for '94.

Jon snow does not bend the knee? Did they not watch season 7?

To be fair, I would have bent both knees in season 7 too… not so much in season 8 though

The Penguins rumors are great for us as Marcus Petterson is a perfect target for us:

- cheaper because he's a pending UFA on a bad team with no future.

- he's developed into a shutdown #3 over the past few years.

- while he's not an elite playmaker, he's become an excellent passer l, particularly by being crafty within the team structure. He doesnt demand PP time.

- he's under 30 and is fairly re-signable in terms of price. Some cap maneuvering would be required but almost any top 4 d extension would. Moving Hoglander or Soucy in the offseason should provide room. Boeser's next contract is a ? right now but there's a little room after.

maybe find a taker for soucys contract 1 more year after this. hoglander around petterson as a base. still need to find another rhd as well.

All of this means that there'll be lots of teams that will want him though. Market is awfully thin at the moment.
