Speculation: Roster Building Thread: Part LXV

[BobMarleyNYR]

We have nothing to show for our 2nd round picks over the last decade.

stepan, dubinsky

EDIT oh, decade, yeah.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Feel like were losing value here.

We are not. I actually feel this is gangbusters.

----

Also Ryan Strome QO in 2h50 or he becomes UFA?!

 

[huerter]

Rangers fans: Why do we keep adding to organizational strengths?
Also Rangers fans: Would it be possible to acquire a center from the Kings since they have an abundance of centers?
Kings: We'll take your center prospect

Those were not in the last decade and btw took Adam Tambellini over Jake Guentzel, Vince Dunn and Brett Pesce.

 

[jay from jersey]

. Well to be fair we traded most of them

And I do think Karl Hendricksson will be a good nhl player even if it’s not with the rangers

 

[NYRangers0723]

Agreed. Robertson too

 

[HatTrick Swayze]

Did we ever get an actual explanation from Lias or his representatives as to what soured things?

Because if I am being harsh it reads like a spoiled kid who had unrealistic expectations...but would like to give the benefit of the doubt. Good riddance.

Our recent second rounders look really promising. You obviously hate Clark but be a tad bit fair. You act like every team hits on second rounders

 

[haohmaru]

To Strome or not to Strome, that is the question.

 

[LokiDog]

So we have 2.5 hours to qualify or trade Strome? I guess there’s nothing to say we can’t still sign him even if we don’t qualify him.

 

[Richard Banger]

Have you seen our prospect pool? Who the f*** cares lmao

 

[NYRangers0723]

My guess is we sign him for 1 more year and trade him off at the deadline or we are now looking for 2021 picks

 

[Leetch3]

the only reason for that would be to sign him for less than his QO which I can't see happening...

 

[LokiDog]

No, I can’t either, I just suppose the deadline doesn’t mean we CAN’T sign him, just signals that it’s very unlikely.

 

[haohmaru]

IMHO, the Rangers are still negotiating with Strome and will only sign on their predefined terms. If they feel it’s going to arbitration I think they let him walk or trade rights for something smalll.

Not entirely true -- We used to 2nds to get Fox. We used one I think for K'Andre Miller move up. And we just made 5.7 million dollars with one, And finally I like Henriksson.

But does Cuylle give me Ryan Gropp flashbacks sure. But at least there's a very clear strategy behind Cuylle and Schneider. We're focusing on Trucculence. Which is something we will need a lot more of going forward.

 

[RGY]

2 hours away and no Strome news.

 

[RangersFan1994]

2 hours away and no Strome news.

maybe he gets dealt for picks for next year. very shocking maybe a trade will happen before 5.

 

[NYR Viper]

I'm still game to take Reaves off their hands

 

[NYRangers0723]

2 hours away and no Strome news.

I don’t like how the Rangers handled this. They made it too well known they weren’t qualifying him so teams won’t give up much

You'd think they need centers at some point, yeah? In 2025, will we still be like, "we've gotu Nieves and Fogarty in a pinch?" Aaltonen probably won't make the NHL, Edstrom, what 4th line? Riley Hughes is knocking at the door on the other side of town. All the eggs are in the Henriksson basket... I like what little I've seen too but they're really neglecting an imminently sore need, I think, Richards, maybe bottom six.

 

[broadwayblue]

What's the over/under on how many more LW and RD we select with our remaining 7 picks?

Very curious to see how this all shakes out. I'm thinking the longer this plays out today, the more a MAF buyout is inevitable.

Strome qualified per Dreger.
