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

[Daves a mess]

I feel a little bad, then i pictured that wife he gets to go home to.
Feeling is gone.

Now Meeka to Guam.

Been calling for waivers for a week. Nice to be vindicated. Trouba's behavior was wildly unprofessional since the summer. Nice guy, bad captain and teammate. he can still do charity work for whatever team he ends up on.

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

If the Rangers made a deal for Brady Tkachuk, I think they would want to keep Kakko/Chytil/Laff. Mostly to create a new "core" that play a different style of play (play deep in the Ozone/cycle/crash the net). Enough of the perimeter game.

Start with Miller if they wouldn't want Shesh.

Oh noooo. Waivers? I've been told that will destroy the locker room. These poor lads wont know what to do.

 

[rangers1314]

All aboard the Wade Redden Express!

 

[Raspewtin]

waivers would be so lame dude. I get it but like, damn we can't get anything for him?

 

[Bob Richards]

Outright waiving the captain lmao

Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for it I just think that’s really funny

 

[McRanger92]

Staple saying Trouba is going to get claimed like Goodrow. Drury deleting another 8mil albatross without attaching assets. Masterclass?

The first sack Drury has shown in years. Oh? you dont like that I waived your buddy Goodrow? Have another while you're at it, and stop whining and play better.

 

[Mike in Houston]

He's gonna join Goodrow.

You’re probably looking at a deal that starts with Miller, and includes Kakko, plus more, if you’re going for quantity/quality. What forward off the team is being moved in that deal?

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Wow.

If that scenario happens you have to give Drury credit

 

[Guyute]

The threat of waivers might be to force Trouba to agree to a trade.

Don’t want to be traded to Anaheim right now as opposed to next summer? Fine, how does Buffalo sound?

 

[will1066]

Drury making sure this gets done before the weekend and Colony Pizza Saturdays.

We get the cap space. That’s all I’m interested in.

I guess. That's like giving a chess player credit for finding the most obvious move tho.

 

[JimmyG89]

If they manage to unload all 8M of his salary, you're talking about all the flexibility in the world to make changes.

Mancini will be better and cheaper. Schneider is now 2RD, which he earned.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

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.

Same boat. I like him as a player. It sucks when the team gets these guys I actually like and things blow up. Similar vibes as Shattenkirk for me

I could shed a tear reading this lol

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

 

[Atax]

Can we also put Lindgren on waivers?

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Making cap room for another deal?

 

[will1066]

Hartford is getting an NHL experienced captain. It will do wonders for them.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

I cannot imagine a scenario where some team straight up picks up Trouba’s deal but maybe it’s some bottom feeder

 

[Savant]

I don’t care if we lose for nothing on waivers. Give me the cap space

They should have done this over the summer as soon as he kneecapped them
