Rumors has it for Darrel Powe.

I am not going to say I called it, but, I called it

 

[Jarkko Immonen]

Hearing on Twitter it's for Darroll Powe.

 

[Fitzy]

We're short on forwards as it is, so there must be someone either coming back or being brought in.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

This should extinguish some of the fires. Wonder what the return is.

 

[Kokoschka]

good: no buyout on Rupp.
bad: I have no idea about Powe. Scouting report? Anyone?

 

[RangerBoy]

I just read a tweet from Russo about Powe being a healthy scratch. An hour later. Traded. Powe is better Rupp. Powe is signed for 13-14. $1,066,667 cap hit.

Yep, was just going to post this.

 

[Fitzy]

Powe's cap hit is a hair over 1 million, signed through the end of next year.

And all these years I thought Rangersboy was Glen Sather. It appears I was wrong lol.

 

[Krams]

Would be pleased with Powe.

Powe - Hard-hitting, great PKer, very good speed, hard-nosed 3rd/4th liner. Love the deal if that's all it is.

Powe is signed for this year and next. He is a pain in the ass to play against.

 

[RangersChamps2417]

Can he actually play?

 

[SupersonicMonkey*]

Thank GOD.

See ya Rupp!

Good deal by Slats.

 

[Osminator]

THANK YOU GOD. Bye and enjoy retirement!

 

[Clowes Line]

This is a beautiful trade. Seriously.

 

[Fitzy]

Had the good fortune of playing against Powe a couple times, and with the acquisition of Asham and Halperns move to the third line, it would be a good get.

 

[Jarkko Immonen]

Very, very happy with this.

 

[NYR Viper]

Yep, was just going to post this.

I think that is the first time that has happened for me. Apparently the Rangers thought they could get by with Asham and Bickel?

Powe is clearly the better player

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

Saves the Rangers some cap space for next season and is a more effective play. I like.

 

[we want cup]

The only thing I know about Darrell Powe is that he is a hockey player who exists.

EDIT: Obligatory "The Cup is ours!"
