The Rangers have the best forward & defenseman duo since Messier/Leetch, in Panarin/Fox. They’ve got to find a way to build a contender around them.

@HatTrick Swayze @Kendo Sorry in the last thread I obviously meant to say that your PP per 60 will be worse if you score after 1:30 rather than 30 sec in to support my position that PP production per 60 stat doesn't make sense.
I think Gauthier gets moved as well.
Rooney should but they’re going to keep him for the “run.”
I can’t see them doing much beyond that though. Big moves will be coming this summer though. Hopefully along with Other changes.

I need a 2nd to move Goat. I mean I wouldn’t say no to Lundell & 1st for Buch but I agree, big moves around the draft.
At least no “self rentals” a la Fast this year.

smith and pdg/blackwell will probably be moved.
nothing big happening this year unless someone comes crashing the door in for buch...

I could see a team biting on Smith at 50% retained for a mid-late round pick
I know it’s cool to hate Smith but I actually wouldn’t be opposed to being him back next year assuming the price reasonable
you could do a lot worse as a 6/7 type guy than him (aka Jack Johnson)

One of PDG/Howden/Goat will go, outside of that I don't except anything. I think Smith stays.
I wonder if a team out there would have interest in Rooney.

I think shesty will be close to richter as well when all’s said and done

it's okay cause it's all just the way it should be
Blackwell might have some value, he's scored a bunch, and if we want to protect Gauthier instead that's a good deal. I think every playoff team has enough PDG-type forwards unless there's been a ton of injuries somewhere. Smith is a possibility the same way we moved Adam McQuaid
More so in the offseason but I would love to add a Jarnkrok or a Lowry for the 4Th line. It’s most likely not on the list of must have but I really think a guy like that would have a tremendous influence on in game scenarios and in the room. As far as the deadline I see one of PDG Gauthier or blackwell traded. Least likely Blackwell unless they get a offer that’s too good to pass up

lmao we need to keep Buch at all costs
I’m gonna make a video comp of him, he has so many hilarious moments
1. Smith at 50% and a 7th goes for a late 4th
2. Someone will overpay for Blackwell even though he’s a mouth breather
3. PDG doesn’t have any asset value that a contending team doesn’t already have on their taxi squad
4. I’d like to see what we can get for Goat but if we trade him and Blackwell and protect Howden then Rooney is our only exposed compliant F for ED and believe we need 2 unless we get back some dummy. I want to avoid losing Goat for nothing.
5. Buch and Strome go nowhere and we evaluate during off-season
6. Georgiev’s days are numbered (we can’t have a back up making 2.4 mil going into 2023) but his value is at an all time low. He stays unless someone sees him as a future 1b and bids accordingly
7. ADA stays put as we’re not retaining enough (I’d retain just about anything to get that 2023 883k hit off the books)

Why would you want to move Rooney? What is wrong with him as 4C?
As to your Other changes, think that you will be severely disappointed.

Is that today? guess they had an optional practice?
Vince being on paternity leave is going to hurt the info side of things. He's so selfish
he’s a UFA to be and we aren’t making a run.
Why hold him? If you want him back you can sign him again this summer.
as for those other changes, they’re going to happen eventually. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

Rooney and Blackwell have one more year
maybe traded next season. Either way, I wouldn't mind if Barron got a look.

Do you ride Shesty in the back to back? would be nice if he could get an easy 17 save shutout tomorrow
I kinda feel for Goat, good guy most likely. I thought it was a good asset management trade at the time but no room for him. Laf fell into our laps, Kratvsov turned it around, and Barron is already the superior player. If we protect prodigal Howden then we’ll lose him for nothing in ED which is a 1st world problem I suppose
