Speculation: Roster Building Thread DCLXXXII: Draft Day in Chicago - My Kinda Town?

[NickyFotiu]

My gut tells me we'll see one more trade before it's over.

Player or picks? Nash? Hayes?

 

[NYR Viper]

DeAngelo is exactly what the Rangers system lacks. A high end RHD that likes to have the puck on his stick.

 

[RGY]

Hayes is not a Top 6 center, this is beyond laughable.

 

[DutchShamrock]

Boyle left here bc he didn't want to be 4C anymore. 1) why expect that have changed 2) why would he come back and be more or even as motivated as he was before, and 3) why should we reward that. No thanks. Bonino overqualified as a 4C and I think better options for 3C.

He was #4 in Tampa and Toronto. I'd prefer to look elsewhere but he should have chime back down to earth. I like Peter Holland. Like his grit.

I wouldn't mind Ryan White

 

[Krams]

Like that DeAngelo isn't afraid to shoot especially on the PP, but aren't there serious concerns about his play in his own end?

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Who is that, exactly?

Cause I've always heard Patrick is right up there near the McDavid/Eichel territory.

He's not.

Both the top end talent and the depth of talent is better next year than it is this year.

Dahlin is the stud of all studs. If the Rangers are going to suck next year, they picked the right year to suck.

He's an offensive defenseman. Those guys always get the 'bad in their own zone' stigma. The good news is that when he has the puck on his stick, it mostly moves in the right direction.

Last I checked this is only the beginning of the offseason. More moves will be made

 

[brians1128]

What about Marcus Kruger if Chicago would pretty much give him up for something small?

this would be a great replacement for lindberg. and get a 1yr deal for stepans replacement. jumbojoe, maybe mike fisher dont know who else would take 1yr deals

 

[Griffinbw]

Do you guys think Foote falls to 21? I'd love to get him

 

[GregSirico]

Well people wanted changes. Oscar, Stepan, and Ranta gone in 2 days. Are we done trading?

No chance. We need 2 centers.

McDonagh and Skjei can cover that. Great skaters. And Coyotes fans said his D is better than advertised, they were pleasantly surprised by it.

Like there were with Staal, Girardi and Holden?

 

[Alluckks]

I want Glass and Foote/Brannstrom/Liljegren

 

[Krams]

Fair enough.

 

[Ghost of jas]

I want Glass, then trade down and take Timmins, and get a high 2nd.

Last I checked that is what just came from gorton's mouth ...

 

[BBKers]

I think we now will trade #21
Lightening strikes twice the same day

 

[Avery16]

Get ready for Oshie

 

[RGY]

I think we now will trade #21
Lightening strikes twice the same day

Hearing anything?

 

[offdacrossbar]

deangelo plays a game similar to brannstrom actually. his defense is vastly underrated. he's a swift skater who knows his way around his own zone.

i think the drafting brannstrom thing is dead.

i think we are looking at centerman

 

[NickyFotiu]

No chance. We need 2 centers.

My bad I meant are we done moving our own nhl players. We could trade picks for a center or sign one via FA.

Think or know?
