Are we dipping into the FA pool now with Staal gone?
please tell me we’re not giving out multi year contracts to solidify the bottom 6....

Rather make a trade for a need like a center, not another winger.

I mean, I doubt the Rangers are done.
Krug is (almost) exactly the kind of partner that Trouba needs though. Wouldn’t cost anything other than cap either.

Where is @BBKers with his damn ‘arrrrr’
Also I’m not sure what I’m more happy about, no more Staal or @RangerBoy coming back. Missed you man/woman/la machina

7 years for possibly 8+ mil for a 29 year old would cost us a LOT

I'm positive the Rangers aren't done, but we don't have the cap space to sign Krug. Not unless we are sending other players elsewhere.

I’m not going to 8m for Krug, but if they can get him for around what Brodin got from Minny it’s a good deal.

For anyone that is #TeamOfferSheet moving our 2nd takes away a lot of options there.

Please stop with the Krug talk. I'm going to get an aneurysm.
I really don't see us finding a 2C or partner for trouba in the free agent market...those will either come via trades or patience waiting for kids to develop (unlikely this year, hence the patience). UFAs is where we can sure up some depth and possibly strengthen the bottom 6 and PK. but those big moves will be trades imo. we have the assets just need to find the right target.

Wild that anyone would be #TeamOfferSheet given the amount of high-quality RFAs we are almost certain to have over the next half decade+.

That’s because Grots is getting them both (Lindholm and Hanifan) in his deal with Calgary. Be prepared.
it was never going to happen anyway but it basically removes all possibility for this offseason...we can no offer the top bracket with 4 1st being compensation and no team is giving up 4 1st and we can't afford that kind of cap hit. and the lower bracket the other team would just laugh and say thanks for negotiating and match it.
Trick is getting Hank to waive his NMC, and I don’t see him doing so. But, I guess you never know...
I’d rather see Geo + our 22nd to Toronto if a player or two drop.

I don't think we need to sign a depth LHD. There's enough options there already, if they add someone on the left I think it will be more of an impact player.
How would you guys feel about a 6X6 extension for Tony right now...?
They need bottom 6 / middle 6 players at both center and wing. Labanc can PK here. Pushes the pace with his speed. Would be a great addition and they can continue their search for a center separately
As far as our LD depth, I can see Gorts going with:
Smith(lol)
Lindgren
Hajek
For another year. Maybe Smith plays solidly and we move him for more futures during the season and bring up Miller.

Good. This is about where I have him pegged at. It benefits us now and is tradeable later if needed, barring him falling off the edge of a cliff production wise.
