Also, with the Rangers not using the buyout window I think you can lock Panarin into the NYI.

His connects around the league are second to none.
Although he did call Kreider to Boston as (all but) done. He could be 0/2 for a week...

7 mill for a 35 year old good lord.
I love that we are rebuilding. I love that we are not the same old Rangers. I love looking at our roster and seeing a handful of problem contracts that will be gone in two years or less (maybe).

If the Rangers aren’t leaking (we’re pretty sure of that) and we know the Islanders aren’t leaking, then this points a finger directly at the agent. Which means he is trying to create leverage.

Obviously that would be great for us, but even from their point of view, I agree. That would be a lot of character and compete for that team. Something they were missing most of last season.
Seems likely. The rangers run a pretty tight ship and I can’t see Lou allowing anything to leak.

I think what's getting lost in all this Panarin talk is one named Rob O'Gara. The rebuild is still on track.
Wait till he sees where the players live and the team trains. Hope LIRR has a frequency program.

re McKenzie - I believe there was a draft day (morning) tweet suggesting Kreider to Boston was imminent.
If Florida is out on Panarin (by most observations) then it’s the Islanders and the Rangers. Yes, I can see the agent trying to jack up the price to the Rangers. And I can see the Rangers listening...to a point. I grew up on Long Island and it’s a nice place to live but not for a 27 year old with money and his model aspiring fiancé. The agent is doing his job.
The agent also represents Kravtsov.
At the end of the day, if the Rangers took their best shot and didn’t get the player, I’ll live with that.

I was very very present on draft day as were a bunch of no life losers on this board. You must have read it from a Bab McKinzie.

whenever people casually mention at the end of a thought that XXX is also the agent of XXX who represents XXX like it implies something significant

Artemi will have to go through the reverse commute. The practice facility is where it's a chore, otherwise Barclays is a 15 minute train ride from downtown Manhattan.
The Isles still practice on the Island.
A bunch of Rangers did the reverse commute to Greenburgh on practice days too.

Obviously some trade possibilities, but it would essentially ruin our leverage if we needed the cap space that badly. You're probably right.

Hey. That’s very offensive. I’m a father, husband and career minded person. I have a real life.
It’s only when it comes to hockey everyone and everything else gets forgotten about.

Eklund is reporting 7 years 70m on officer Bob. What a horrendous contract that would be
He would likely be the only Islander living in Manhattan.

We don't need to buy anyone out. A Shattenkirk market will develop. Someone will miss out on the RHD trade market.
Myers and Stralman are the only RHD UFAs worth anything. Risto is available via trade. Zaitsev situation is resolved unless Ottawa backs out.
Some team in contention will need a RHD to fill in the top 4. With our ability to retain, Shattenkirk is a prime post FA trade candidate.

Who saw that coming? Much better to keep the 8OA and draft a player who might help your franchise forward 3-4 years down the line than get him immediately help with a young forward you'd have control of in the immediate future, knowing you have no chance in free agency. F them sideways.
