Roster Building thread - Part IX - (2024 edition)

Next time I won’t use a sports reference.

 

[Avery16]

Shesty playing like a backup.

 

[Guyute]

On a positive note, Shesty can’t ask for a raise going into free agency

 

[hockeyplayer999]

It’s time to trade Shesty before his value starts to tank bad. If we do resign him I would give him less than what he makes now. His cap hit is gonna kill us with his poor play.

Maybe he is part of the issue. How about the soft defense the Rangers have. Passive and not committed. Its s team sport

It’s not a stock market.

 

[McRanger92]

Can we still get a haul for Schneider? I hate the look of the defense. Lots of guys who can’t handle a forecheck at all

 

[zlev]

the defense corps needs an overhaul, news at 11

 

[RangersFan1994]

Rangers still struggling to fill out Chris Kreider-Mika Zibanejad line

If and when Will Cuylle starts Thursday night on the right side with Chris Kreider and Mika Zibanejad, the 21-year-old will become the BFF’s 14th co-conspirator since the 2020-21 season.

He needs to be better but why trade him now. He's not gonna be a core piece for a RW. I'd trade Miller before him who has more trade value and would bring back a need.

[haohmaru]

With 33% of our forwards (starters) out for last game it’s hard to pin it on the goalie. That’s a lot of holes to fill.

Because Miller is a much better player and Schneider wont have a top 4 role here for at least 3 more years. Your top 4 LD are Lindgren and Gustafsson if you move Miller. Non-starter

Despite the rough stretch, this is still true.

You can trade Kakko for a defenseman


Need an upgrade from MIller. Someone better defensively

The guy to upgrade on the left side is Lindgren. He's lost multiple steps.

Need to upgrade Miller, Trouba, and Lindgren.

no

no

 

[leetch99]

Fire Housley and hire somebody that can teach/preach defense . Virtually every Dman on our team is playing badly since we hired him except for maybe Gus . So.....he has helped one 6th ranking Dman for us ! Fix the D and the goalies will be better .

We went like 16 minutes without them getting a shot. Sure, we had some breakdowns, but getting a save here and there goes a long way.

 

[tlk]

Hoping they're eventually getting back to

Kreids Zib Kakko
Bread Chyt Laf
Will Tro ???
Vesey Badraw ???

Our best chance for a balanced and structured game IMO.

The Bread line is atrocious defensively.

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

So we're in a slump and I see:

Trade Igor
Trade Schneider
Trade K'Andre
Fire Housley

You know who would be a good fit for them? Pavel Buchnevich. Maybe the Blues will trade him for a pretzel.



Oh wait, that's only our GM

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Trade Igor
Trade Schneider
Trade K'Andre
Fire Housley

From the usual suspects.

 

[tlk]

The Bread line is atrocious defensively.

Presently (for a long time actually) - yes. With the size and speed of Chyt they'll hopefully get better.

Relying on Chytil is a bad idea at this point. Drury should be working on acquiring a young center as insurance.

 

[duhmetreE]

He seems weaker on the puck as well.
