Ok Drury the debates over, time to trade Trouba
Roster Building Thread - Part XI (Off-season edition)
- Thread starter Leonardo87

Xenforo Cloud has scheduled an upgrade to XenForo version 2.2.16. This will take place on or shortly after the following date and time: Jul 05, 2024 at 05:00 PM (PT) There shouldn't be any downtime, as it's just a maintenance release. More info here
Be prepared to see a lot of mediocre players signed/traded the next few days that people on this board are going to wish we acquired.
See: MIDgiapane. The very definition of a mid player in this league. I swear some of yall don’t actually watch anyone but the Rangers.
Suters another name some of you guys brought up. Put the crackpipe down. He’s not even mid like Mangia. He’s straight ass. I’d rather hire a 1 legged man in an ass kicking competition than bring in that molasses fossil.

I still think Domi is a no brainer. 2 biggest needs are 1RW and 3C. Domi has ability to do both. Pair that with mika saying publicly he wants a passer at 1RW. This one just makes far too much sense.
Assuming chytil is healthy to start the year
Kreider-Mika-Domi
Panarin-Trocheck-Laff
Cuylle-Chytil-Kakko
Vesey-Edstrom-Rempe
Brodz
Then if chytil dies again we can call up othmann or berard and go

It was an extremely weak reaction for a mentally weak and cowardly team. Two handing Wilson in the face five times was warranted and they instead waited for a soulless Brendan Smith fight where he lost.
That group was a massive failure at the most basic level. I woulda nuked the whole squad and started over.

Kinda amazed that this hasn't sent this board into a fury.
NHL Draft could seal Kaapo Kakko’s Rangers fate
There is every chance Chris Drury will make a deal on the floor at the Sphere as the Rangers look to move up from their 30th overall spot.nypost.com
“Late momentum seems to building around a potential trade of Jacob Trouba, whose 15-team no-trade list is due Monday but has been requested a bit earlier than that. As of early in the week, my best information was that the team was not going to aggressively market the captain — who has two years remaining at an $8 million cap hit per — but rather would listen to offers. That appears to have changed over the last 48 hours.”
I saw this & came in expecting a mosh pit & it's crickets.
I mean I know Larry isn't loved here but this is more than just smoke.
He's confirming they asked for his list early. That says 2 things...
A) They're def interested in trading him
&
B) They already have at least an offer... but probably more to weigh.

I will be pleasantly shocked if the NYR actually move Trouba.
The lingering anvil overhead of course being what they do with the cap space.
And is using Kakko to move up in the draft really the best use of him? That screams he & his agent are pushing hard for a trade.

A lot of shit could happen in the next few days. Drury is in a position where he could do too little or too much. Also if he creates holes he should have some kind of plan to refill them. The Rangers most glaring hole right now is top 6 RW but we have only so much cap space to fill it. If we move on from Trouba and/or Lindgren we will have to fill there too. There isn't much within the organization so that's free agency or trade for either. Jones could move up but he's still a ? and anyone who hasn't got a full year's slate of NHL games would pretty much be a ? too if we're talking about one of the better teams in the league. You'd want to arrange real competition against him and make him earn it in training camp and then he's got to stick it after that.
I would like to see Fox with a bigger, stronger and meaner partner than Lindgren. All playoffs Fox was getting run. The knee injury probably didn't help but the Rangers could use someone to partner with him that if someone runs Fox that guy will come right over and knock that someone on his ass. Doesn't have to fight every time but send a message that that's an automatic that you run Adam be prepared to get knocked on your ass. We need to protect our best on ice player/defenseman.

Bottom six can be tweaked at the deadline. I think this kind of disciplined off season - especially for the forwards - would be great.

think they make 1 big one today and by big I mean a headline piece, it's what Dolan wants more than anything else.
Any chance a guy like Kevin Labanc becomes a Ranger on Monday? Adds speed and can be cheap option. Natural RW
Brady Tkachuk would be a nice headline today

I doubt Shesterkin signs for anything south of 10 mill. I guess around 11 mill, 8 years. I hope no trade clauses the last 2-3 years.

Rangers dip into college ranks to hire Grant Potulny as AHL coach
Another college coach is getting his professional start within the Rangers organization.

The problem with this question is that even if Drury made all the right moves it might not get the team over the top, so it's hard to answer.
We've seen over the past 3 seasons that he'll at least try, but only time will tell whether they were 'right' or not

I've not surprised on Trivigno. I'm a little surprised on Robertson. I thought they might give him one more year just based on what they invested in him, but it's been obvious for a while that they don't see an NHL player in him.Rangers dip into college ranks to hire Grant Potulny as AHL coach

Robertson makes no sense
He was called up for the playoffs and during the year . He will be qualified
Tarasenko and Mikkola won the cup
Just 1 year after they were Rangers
Right move
Domi is inconsistent . Leafs will bring him back

Nuance. You understand it.
Momentum seems to be building around the idea that Drury understands that the defense needs to be fixed. If he does that and we still lose, so be it.
