Fans don’t seem to understand that prices are sky high. Big splashy deadline trades rarely win Cups
13 points in his last 11 games. On a depleted team.
This could work.

We added two third line players and a #7 for a 2nd, and three mid round picks. Less all told than we paid for Andrew Copp, Eric Staal, or Ryane Clowe alone.
Roslovic isn't going to fix the Mika line, but he does fit nicely on the right of Wennberg and Cuylle. He's played center before, though IIRC it's been awhile.
And most importantly, we didn't trade Perrault, Othmann, or our first round pick. The lineup is "full" (Albeit not what it was on paper last year) without gutting the pipeline.

Plus he missed some time too. Reminds me of the Vatrano trade. We can’t just bend over to other teams demands and give up our future

I like this move. Under the radar and costs practically nothing and he skates really well. Give him the chance to play on that Zibanejad line and I think he thrives.
Put him with Mika. He’s proven he can produce. Kakko needs to be on the 3rd line.

Also, the idea that the team needed a 1RW is a fallacy. Lafreniere is the teams 1RW and in close games, Laviolette is going to throw Vesey up on that line for defensive acumen. They needed someone who could gel with them and create some 5v5 offense.

Teams in general rarely win Cups.
Yeah but the ones crying we didn’t give up a kings ransom for Guetzel or Buch would see that those type of deadline moves don’t win cups
I think Mika will come alive. Kreider has 31 goals. It will be good

Please say this louder for everyone that still doesn't understand
Panarin-Trocheck-Lafreniere is the top line. Lafrienere is the #1RW. It's not up for discussion.

Really solid move. Really solid deadline for Drury. Got 3 NHL players in areas of need and hardly gave up anything. Well done.

Very good metrics last I looked at 5v5, in transition and on zone entries...has a lot of speed and isn't afraid to go into the dirty areas. Based on that, should fit really well with Zib and Kreids.
As Rangers fans, we’re so conditioned to go for big names vs our GMs doing real work and finding specific targets that add particular skillsets we need at value prices. Drury did it 2y ago and did it again this year.
Also, Roslovic is outpacing Zib at ES this year and has scored in line w/ Kreider at ES the last 2 yrs. In much fewer mins.

The epitome of "I guess."
Not really better than Vesey or even Kakko in whatever spot.
If he's on the 4th line I'd rather play any of Edstrom, Rempe, or Brodzinski.
It's not worth getting upset over the 4th but this was literally pointless.
kreider-tro-roslovic: if this line gets a few shifts on ice and they gel it could be real dynamic and exciting.

Can’t just look at charts. I know you love them but let’s be honest here he played for the bluejackets, they are atrocious. He will be better than Vesey and fit nicely with Mika and krieder and fill in at pp2
Exactly. Our whole history we’ve gone after big names and it never works. Messier is the only one and that took 3 years

The team needed a top six RW. Who cares which line you call the top line.
