Speculation: Roster Building Thread: Part XIV (To trade or not to trade is the question)

[Savant]

Brady's wife is from NJ but yea - would just as easily make more sense for NJ or Philly. But Brady would be a phenomenal add. Unless we're talking about McDavid or MacKinnon, every player is not without flaws. Can't believe people are anti-adding him.

I’m not anti-adding Brady Tkachuk at all. I do not think we have anything resembling the trade assets necessary to get him. Especially compared to the other teams in proximity to Manasquan

I also don’t know how we went from “Ottawa is looking at the vets on the Rangers” to “Ottawa willing to trade Tkachuk to Rangers”. It doesn’t make sense

 

[bernmeister]

At least that garbage team would get Hagens to add with Perreault. Brods plays on 2.5 lines basically holding spots for them until 25-26. Haha

The Rangers are going to make max 4 trades. Thats it. And the number of players involved for all 4, including both sides, will probably be 12 players. You have a 10 player trade with Ottawa. It's just so unreal that even in the fun speculation thread to shoot the shit it stands out as silly.

Not silly, and larger deals can be broken up into smaller ones

You overrate Fox who is uber-elite intellectually in hockey IQ and only par/subpar physically, gonna get slower.
LaF has highest market value in OTT or MON.
We are better going w/the guys I identified

If we still got Sanderson, Kleven, Pinto while having a side deal for Tkachuk, and I could flip Tkachuk for Nemec + Silayev +, that is worth considering

Quick everyone! Change the Rob signal!

Update: Sorry. I'll see myself out now.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Drury’s balls dropped. Wow!

 

[ThePeoplesPeople]

Go Chris Go

 

[Mike in Houston]

And now we start winning again!

 

[MrAlmost]

It's come, but it is still sad. I like Trouba, but a real collection of unforseen events and a few missteps on the part of the GM made his last 2 years here tougher than they needed to be. Wonder where he will go.

 

[IDvsEGO]

To be clear this sounds like a trade.
Don’t need to sit someone out for waivers.

And now we start winning again!

We’re gonna lose tonight. This kinda shakeup…

 

[jerseyjinx94]

These players are too entitled and act like babies. Other teams are ruthless and waive and trade guys left and right. They don’t have dissension in the locker room or get upset with management. Drury needs to get rid of these guys that are causing it

The Trouba era is over

Scratching Trouba for Mancini is certainly a start

 

[Atax]

Get in lads! It's happening!

 

[Kords]

Two video games I wanna play dropped today, Rangers game at 7 and now trade drama and I’m stuck in Bellport with shitty cell service…. Gonna be a long angsty day….

Pretty sure that’s exactly the point of this.

Luckily I got a hold of wind and truth yesterday. That was gonna be most of my weekend.

 

[McRanger92]

Go Chris Go

Your name change clearly shook something loose

 

[NYRFAN218]

Really hope it's a trade but feel like it's waivers. Shame it had to come to this but it easily could have been avoided by Trouba cooperating in the offseason when his NMC ended. Instead, we wind up with a mid-season move which is not ideal for everyone for a variety of reasons. Had to happen though.

Tuba will go down as one of the Rangers defensemen of all time.

I cant wait for mine to get delivered. I had an old card as the original payment that I forgot to switch now I'm waiting. Totally patiently.
Strength before weakness, brother.
