The Rangers get a coveted NCAA prospect… what’s new?

 

[BrockLobster]

Another player falls in their lap?

 

[Man Bear Pig]

I heard he's Hulks son. Unreliable source though.

 

[Breakers]

Good player, with a high motor.

Ufko
Trivigno
Morrow
Kessel

Those 4 are the ones That carry Umass

Wonder if he'll be as good as Jimmy Vesey............

I mean he grew up a Rangers fan, had season tickets when he was younger. If he was born in Boston or Chicago he probably signs there.

and he didn't even force NYR to burn this season

They did not have enough contract spots.

Fingers crossed. If we snag another NHL player for free that’s a huge win.

Everyone always goes to great lengths to try to sell why guys who grew up in a particular area are going to sign a UFA deal to go back to places like Toronto or Montreal or Vancouver, but they seem to overlook that players do come from other places and that they might want to go to their hometown team too when the opportunity arises. He's a Setauket NY kid. It makes perfect sense.

It's weird how some Canadian fans think their guys are the only ones who might want to be near home.

not an expert, but per CapFriendly they do ...

please you know what i mean.

The Rangers are at 49 contracts for this season, so they could have had Trivigno's contract start this year.

Hopefully the fact that we still have that contract slot means we are still in on Meyers.

 

[Chainshot]

please you know what i mean.

The kid's family were season ticket holders and he grew up an enormous fan of the team. Yes, the Rangers have a much easier time selling location to UDFA's but he's already someone who bleeds Ranger Blue.

 

[cwede]

its a decent prove-it opportunity for him too,
he turned 23 in Jan, so, if he doesn't play 80 NHL games over next 2 seasons, he could become Group 6 UFA*.
In mean time, he plays not far from campus and family

and even if he is more Motte/Brodzinski, than Zucc, it seems like he's a Turk kinda player

OOPS - that's wrong, need 3 pro seasons before Group 6 eligible

*Kid grows up as a Rangers fan, doesn’t get drafted or signed, and is free to choose from any of the 32 NHL teams to sign with and chooses his hometown team*
