Roster Building Thread IV (2022-23): Luck of the Irish

[Daves a mess]

I wonder if the Debs board is going to flip their beanies over where Timo is going to play?
Even their GM said he doesn't have a set spot in HIS mind on where he'd fit better. With Jack Hughes? Sure. With countryman Nico? Sure.

Where Kane playes will work itself out. No need to stroke out over it. Jmo.

The NHL should follow the NFL's lead and permit teams to restructure contracts to get cap compliant. There's no reason we should have to trade Goodrow when we should be able to change the remaining 4 years at 3.6M to 5 years at 2.5M, for example, or something along those lines

The NHL should do a lot of things to introduce themselves to the 21st century but they refuse to do it. Worst run league AINEC.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Tarasenko is kinda the odd ball out. He's a shooter who goes into traffic and needs a playmaker, which neither Zibanejad and Kreider truly is.

Laf - Chytil - Tarasenko should be the play

I'd normally agree with this but it's a legitimate concern with GG.

He's broken up combos that work for no reason and will stick with combos that don't for way too long because he really wants them to work.

Carpenter not practicing does he go back to Chicago in the deal?

AHL

He's getting waived, right?

Either way, the Rangers can't risk an injury so not practicing makes sense.

Zibanejad can be. Maybe Tarasenko should play with Lafreniere.

Both Zibanejad and Kreider can make great feeds, but often on the rush and only on occasion.

 

[NikC]

What?

Hes' replying to the voices in his head.

 

[TheDirtyH]

Both Zibanejad and Kreider can make great feeds, but often on the rush and only on occasion.

Idk if Tarasenko needs a great passer. He definitely needs help transporting the puck up ice and forechecking to maintain or turn over possession, but his whole career he's been a guy who needs less room, less angle, less help entirely when it comes to scoring goals. He's never really had a one timer, he's a guy who likes to fade out and then appear again.

I like him with Chytil and Laf for those reasons. But I don't like him anywhere if he won't shoot the puck. I know I've been harping on this but it's really significant to me. He needs to get back to being a volume shooter, shoot from anywhere, score from anywhere player.

Kane to the Rangers has been on the horizon since last trade deadline but it's still kinda surreal its happening. Gonna be nuts to see 88 in Blue.

Gerard you buffoon it's so simple.

 

[MrAlmost]

You play Kane with Panarin. Panarin-Tro-Kane. That's the line. There is literally no reason to bother with anything else. If it doesn't work you move him, but to start, Panarin and Kane. And honestly, you let it go as long as possible before moving it around. Don't be the smartest guy in the room and try to play Kane with Chytil or something. Haha

Kreider-Z-Tank
Panarin-Tro-Kane
Laf-Chytil-Kakko
Motte-Goodrow-Vesey

Tarasenko came to NY to play with his best buddy and he’s already being replaced. If you think he sucks now…

He is playing with his friend. They are on the same team. And he doesn't suck.

Does he need waivers? Doesn't he only have to re-clear if he's been on the roster for 30 days or 10 games?

 

[kinger8998]

Lines will be Kreids-Mika-Tarasenko, Bread-Troch-Kane, Kids,
Motte-Goodrow-Vesey.

Whether trade happens after 5PM EST today or tomorrow, what a time it is to be a Rangers fan.
The big gripe in trading for Kane was if we gave up a 1st + Krav. Now it seems we're going to get Kane without giving up a 1st and it turns out (like I said all along) Krav had little to no value bexause hes 5/6 years removed from being a high draft pick, neglects AHL assignments, flees for Russia and hasn't impressed at all in the NHL.

Getting Kane is HUGE. Getting him for the price we're about to get him for is even bigger. If you're not happy, cheer for another team because you're clearly just a stick in the mud.

I think you're right. So he's AHL-bound then.

Ottawa was rumored

2nd & 7th for Kane im seeing it some unconfirmed twitter rumors. Would be a coup.

Goodness.

Even I'm thrilled with that.

That would be insane. I gotta think there's a prospect of some sort involved.

Good lord, that's a major steal if true. If this is what we end up trading to get Kane, I would have almost preferred keeping our 1st rounder and stuff that we traded to get Tarasenko. But, am liking the depth we've gotten with Tank and soon-to-be Kane it seems.
