Are trades with Vegas supposed to be announced tonight or tomorrow? Even if they are playing where Vegas selects player A from one team and trades him to another?

If the trades only impacted expansion (aka tonight), then they'll be announced. If it's a trade like in your final sentence (a three-way involving Vegas), or something between two non-Vegas teams, then it will be announced tomorrow.
 
Ya'll are fallin for it again!! Another deadline, another "queue of trades", another "rush".

I for one will not fall for it! Call me when its real not guys whose jobs rely on getting your attention for trades trying to continue hyping nothing

Nah I'd believe it this time.

Most of them will likely involve Vegas though.

So you don't believe Las Vegas is going to make a lot of trades?
 
So AV will get to keep his favorite vanilla pet Stepan because Gorts traded away all his picks at the deadline -- two years in a row -- for worthless rentals in Staal and Smith so that we couldn't deal with Vegas? What else is new in Rangerland? Pretty sicking to be honest...

Watch Gorton look to make a splash on the UFA market on July 1.

Who will win a Cup first, the Islanders or Devils or us? Will we get to one cup in 100 years. Way to go Gorton. Sather was a great mentor obviously.
 
If Gorton has a deal in place with Arizona to add that early 1st, I would be okay moving the later 1st this year for a player like Theodore. That would be a real solid addition for the back end on the right side.
 
Just heard there may be a deal in place with Vegas for a roster player going to NYC for a high pick, either this year or next. Did not get a name. But the guy seemed pretty sure

I'm not sure there's a guy on Vegas thus far that I'd trade a first round pick for. I might flip a 2nd on Colin Miller, but there's really not much else that's appealing. Theodore, maybe, but another LHD?

This isn't an overreaction :laugh:

I still think The Rangers sign Smith. No point in signing him ahead of this draft
 
So annoyed got out from emelin. So terrible and over rated, plays like a scum bag and turtles. I really hoped he would be stuck there.
Watch them get lindberg in a trade for a pick.

Not really a whole lot on that roster that justifies giving up a high pick. Hope that rumor is baseless.

Oh ****, it's October already? I missed my birthday.
 
Well I think the system was designed for them to have that option, they just declined.

I heard that from McPhee and Bill Foley IIRC. The system itself was inarguably better than it was for Columbus, Minnesota, Atlanta and Nashville.

I think this is a massive overreaction to losing Oscar Lindberg.

Holy crap.

Very smart decision by McPhee, all he had to do was claim he wanted the team to be competitive. Look at the past cup winners, many of them were bottom feeders for some time they drafted high and it payed off. I wish this team could tank and build it back up, he's got that option with and even better starting point that any other team has when they tanked.
 
I think Vegas maybe makes 2-3 trades. They took the approach of pay us to not take your guy, instead of saying were going to take them and auction them off.
So they're going to pick 30 players. They already signed one. They are getting multiple players from Anaheim, NYI. They can have a 23 man roster in October. Help me with the math here.
