Feeling it
The Rangers are ALWAYS in Florida for NYE… why is that? This has been going on for years.
We all talk about how f***ed up the scheduling is, but this and a few other road trips/opponents always seem to hit around the same time of year…
Boston around St Pattys day, almost always is another.
There must be something to it, no?

I would love to see Cuylle in the Kreider position on the powerplay in front of the net. I'd love to see Kredier help him cause havoc on the PP with his size and skill.

He’s still in the league? I said the same thing today when Washington wasted money and a contract slot on Ethan f***ing Bear.

Going to see them with my son for the 3rd year in the row. Became our annual thing.

Probably more to do with what is happening at MSG than anything else.
Ever try to book a hotel in Manhattan around NYE? I'm sure all the travel organizers for other teams want no part of that.

Don’t see any major pieces moved out during the season. Drury will be looking to add but lack of cap space and asset capital hurt. Off season, I see a move for a young center and a LHD both likely. Lindgren and Kakko both could be moved then.
Don’t undersell Pinto. Good young player who probably needs a change of scenery and has an NY connection.
Don't ignore the lure of adding a player like Hanifin. Young veteran with Plenty of career still in front of him.

I always remember playing the Isles around St Pattys
I remember when this board was obsessed with adding Jost

I've heard that his skating is poor, and every other part of his game is mediocre at best. He's not particularly good at ANYTHING, but he's not that bad at anything other than skating. He'd be worth a shot for a couple of teams.
If Goodrow just disappeared, I'd consider it. There's a little extra $ over some other waiver claim, but he can take a FO or switch to wing. For a fringe top 9 that has a tiny bit of upside left, there could be something there. He doesn't really play a 4th line game, so it would have to be a good fit. There's the rub. Goodrow is even more overpaid but can play a 4th line game, at least.
If I started out a Dynasty Mode with a random team, I'd probably JUMP at the claim. Since we have little to no space, Tyson Jost can't be the ONE move we make. So yeah, we don't want him. He could really catch on in the right spot, like an overpaid younger Brodz, but not here.
They're pretty different players, but if Will can add some of that to his bag it would really fit his style of game.

Undersells it. Makes Goodrow look like prime Doug Gilmour. One of the worst non-facepunching longtime NHLers I've ever seen.

It looks SOOO bad. The big question is how much he is the causation vs merely part of the correlation.
The fact that he's hovering pretty close to zero in a couple of those stats could indicate that the situation is bad in itself and he's mitigating a little bit. If you wanted to be super charitable.
A team with $1m to burn for "cost above replacement," I wouldn't be surprised to see a claim. Almost everyone goes unclaimed, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him clear either. LOL
Ya think the radio booth will get a visit from Sal “Red Light” Massina?

Vince with a trade candidates article. Id honestly be surprised if Elias Lindholm isnt a Ranger if Chytil is actually done for the year. He also mentioned Tommy Novak from Nashville, who I dont know too much about but he seems like a a good target. Puts up points with an 800K contract. Teammate of Lindgren at the University of Minnesota. Probably a high price to pay to get him from Nashville if they fall out of the race, but he could be a long-term fit.

I wonder if Trenin will be moved. 27 years old. 24 points last year in 77 games. He's a very physical player and could be a candidate that the team could bring in and then re-sign for 3-4 years as a physical bottom-6 guy. 9 points in 33 games this year so perhaps the price will be somewhat reasonable. He'd push Cuylle down or be pushed down to the 4th line as depth.
People who wanted Hathaway should also want Trenin. He has a similar impact on the ice to Hathaway with his high compete level, hitting and PKing.

I like Trenin, just hoping we wouldnt make a Jeannott type trade for him. I wonder what the price on Trenin & Novak would be.

I could be completely wrong, but I would assume Trenin costs about what Hathaway did last year.
