Speculation: Roster Building Thread DCLXXXI: Trade Everyone For Everything

[Ail]

This trade from Arizona also shows something interesting....

They're going after some experienced players who know how to win. Chayka wants vets, he wants guys to put down a framework...

I'm starting to think it wasn't the "we need to start winning" argument that got Tippet fired... It was the "Chayka wants to win X way while Tippet wants win Y way"

That's exactly what it was and this deal pretty much completely dispels the idea that Chayka wouldn't trade for Stepan now that Tippet is gone. Which most of us already assumed.

Holy ****

Why the hell would they trade Panarin? Isn't he their best young player?

 

[Trxjw]

Bowman is such an awful GM.

 

[Ghost of jas]

Rangers are waiting to see who is available at #7 before they close an eventual deal for Stepan with Arizona

Is that opinion or what you've heard?

 

[Ail]

Go on.

Wow Jarelf, just Google it already god.

 

[TheTakedown]

He'll do better in Chicago...

But I just don't see the motivation to make this move.

Culture... This trade from Arizona also shows that they are looking to change the team into a winning culture. They're going after experienced players who know how to win. Chayka wants vets, he wants guys to put down a framework... I don't think Tippet didn't want to do that either, but I have a feeling the reason Tippet was fired was because the owner believes in Chayka to make the right deals. Arizona has some good players that need a solid support cast.

Stepan fits the bill to a tee as someone experienced who knows when to do what.

And now with Tippet gone, Dvorak is no longer a coaches pet, I think the rangers have a shot at getting this guy...

Imagine if Dvorak was the reason Tippet got fired.. lol

what is going on here

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Rangers are waiting to see who is available at #7 before they close an eventual deal for Stepan with Arizona

Is it straight up Stepan for the #7?

 

[Ail]

Is that opinion or what you've heard?

Honestly that makes a lot of sense why trade for the #7 arbitrarily? If your guy isn't there, there's no point.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

columbus just got much better, absolutely terrifying to be honest

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

no ****ing way

Chicago can't be that stupid can they ?

I know Dale Tallon went back to Chicago for the draft.

I had no idea he was also in line for his second tour of duty with the Blackhawks.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Just a guess here...

Saad for Panarin is immediately followed by Saad to Phoenix for 7th overall.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Somebody wake Gorton up. There's prime players to be taken from foolish GMs

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

quick, trade staal for kane

 

[Ail]

"Oh **** what the **** are they doing what the **** is this ****, BOWMAN STAHP!"

I mean from Chicago's POV, I get why Arizona did it.

 

[KOVALEV022473]

That would be dumb as ****!

 

[Griffinbw]

Is the Panarin trade official yet?

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

This is kinda hilarious

 

[TheTakedown]

Holy ****

Holy crap... what in God's name

 

[Thirty One]

Just a guess here...

Saad for Panarin is immediately followed by Saad to Phoenix for 7th overall.

They apparently want a center.

 

[KOVALEV022473]

columbus just got much better, absolutely terrifying to be honest

Is it a done deal? What is Bowman ****ing ********?

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

This is the greatest thing ever.
