GDT: NHL Draft Day 2

[Avery16]

Good Hunting Rangers!

Live shot of Drury hunting:

 

[EdJovanovski]

We didn’t have Laf when we signed CK. Nor a flat cap.

Many of us did think it was a bad contract at the time though, it was always quite polarizing.

 

[CommaSynapse]

We didn’t have Laf when we signed CK. Nor a flat cap.

I’m just bitter. Don’t mind me.

I really disliked the Kreider deal when it was signed. Between the term and NMC, I just don’t see it ending well.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

These guys aren’t even tough either lol
Blais is an awful fighter, and Goodrow is an average one

Well we got Deslauriers coming in soon

 

[FIRE DRURY]

Our writers mentioned the Rangers wanted to get "tougher" and "harder to play against". which is fine, but doing it at the expense of too much skill is a recipe for disaster.

Fox, Lundkvist and Jones, are skilled defenseman.

Panarin, Mika, Laf, Kakko, Kravtsov, Chytil, Kreider. We have firepower. Guys like Goodrow and Blais are going to hit everyone when they’re on the ice. A player like Danault can be utilized as a shutdown guy.

I remember Holik here. Good player. Overpaid AF though. We overpaid him and didn’t put him in the same role that he thrived in. Idiots. Gallant is going to do a good job playing our guys to their strengths. He’s not a buffoon like Quinn.

 

[SA16]

Risky deal for Colorado. Now they only have several years to trade Makar before the NMC kicks in.

 

[FIRE DRURY]

I’m just bitter. Don’t mind me.

I really disliked the Kreider deal when it was signed. Between the term and NMC, I just don’t see it ending well.

Hated the Kreider extension. Hated it even more after we drafted Laf. Hated it the most when Edge leaked what Dallas was offering for him at the deadline.

Also hate the value we got for Buch. I’m right there with you man.

Brooks also alluding to Lafraniere being moved to RW

 

[IDvsEGO]

Brooks also alluding to Lafraniere being moved to RW

haven't we figured out by now that brooks mostly writes/speaks for the sound of his own voice at this point?

 

[rangers1314]

Let’s see if we have anything cooking with Vegas or Seattle at 35 or 36

 

[SA16]

@Ola

Oh no.

[Pizza]

Just connecting this morning. Can I please get an update on what's happened in day 2 so far?
Thanks.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Brooks also alluding to Lafraniere being moved to RW

So we trading Kravtsov too?

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Gallant also alluded to this happening a week or so back

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

BOKO!

 

[BobMarleyNYR]

Oh yay, I forgot Savage. I believe he will be an NHL player. Great list. The only thing I thought there was something about Pinelli that was a red flag. Don’t remember if it was his skating or the competition that he played against.
LGR!!!

you guys know way more about what could conceivably turn out to be the worst draft in history, than anybody really should... I still think it's good that they picked in the first round, but this second round will probably be a waste. And we got it as the main piece for a 26-year-old first liner...

 

[RangerBoy]

6X9 for Makar.

Makar took a discount, Fox can too.

Makar took a discount?

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

So we trading Kravtsov too?

I have no idea, just reporting what was said by Gallant a few weeks back and now Larry mentioned it as well. I assume the Rangers might not want 3 kids in the top 6 right away.

Whole lotta this.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Brooks also alluding to Lafraniere being moved to RW

Brooks speculating on possible lines is just foolhardy. We have a new coach so we really have no idea who he’s going to play together.

 

[Synergy27]

So we trading Kravtsov too?

Kravtsov maybe getting a look at C. Who knows.

 

[EdJovanovski]

The panel assuring me it’s okay if I didn’t get drafted, I still have a chance!

 

[Hunter Gathers]

I hear we are trading for Pichel
