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

[Gordon Bombay]

I have lower back pain and a mortgage.

Stretch your hips more. And try to find a sugar momma

I like Tro's response better, haha. Chris seems angry. I want to hear his tone though.

When transcribed, Kreider’s prose styling reads like @RangerBoy :

“Don’t have social media,” Kreider said. “Don’t read whatever the hell you guys are writing. Focus on what’s right in front of us. Focus on the practice. Focus on your next rep. Focus on your next shift. Be in the moment.

“If you’re not in the moment right now, what does it all mean when it’s all said and done? Compete. Try to win hockey games. Try to get better. Try to enjoy the moment.”

You can't be serious. The guy is mentally crumbling in Vancouver but he's going to be able to handle the NYC scene? Holy hell

New York is a joke compared to Vancouver when it comes to hockey.

Cuylle Chytil Berard should be a top 6 line or the new kid line tomorrow

No more kid lines.

 

[bleedblue94]

I said all along that Trocheck would be a good interim captain for the remainder of his contract or a kid stepped up.

Give him the C.

Strip zib and Kreider of A’s

If the team is going to name Trocheck then they need kreider or someone else from the "current" leadership to be gone to give more space for the new leader to do his thing. Better to make a new captain after the gut job happens

Yeah seriously

I live here and no one gives a f*** about the Rangers 9 times out of 10 lol

Petterson would be just fine

It's not just the hockey. The lifestyle as well.

EP is not the move here.

 

[Brutananadilewski]

The fans =/= media

That lockerroom has been in the crosshairs of the media both here and in Canada.

The only reason why it isn't as amplified here is because of the 1-2 punch of suck from the Giants and Jets is sill ongoing.

 

[McRanger92]

Rangers players are certainly feeling the heat. Petersson and Miller are both problems in that locker room, I don’t think either would mesh well here.

Problem is you’re not going to get a “top” center via trade without at least a question mark or two. Zibanejad was frequently listed in the top 15 last year iirc.

There’s very little risk I wouldn’t take on to be rid of Meeka

Spooky nonsense.

Your lips to gods ears

 

[MrAlmost]

Petersson is not the issue in the room. And he isn't available. The problem is, was and always will be Miller. He is an asshole.

 

[grachevsceiling]

No doubt—I was more bringing his name up to illustrate what a dearth of elite centers there are. The list is whittled down to basically no one if you consider who would actually be moved. EP and JT Miller are rare guys that might be available, and it’s because they have some question marks surrounding them.

 

[zlev]

New York is a joke compared to Vancouver when it comes to hockey.

yeah, wtf? and he's only crumbling bc JT Miller is a douche. in fact, i would say Miller is the one crumbling, he's the one that had to leave the team. Elias just kept playing.

 

[will1066]

What's JTM's problem anyway?

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

What's JTM's problem anyway?

He’s a selfish asshole but evidently that’s appealing to our GM

 

[Matt Rentfree]

Birds of a feather...

 

[duhmetreE]

Bischel has the same amount of goals in 4 games as Fox and Lindgren combined

 

[Rangers in 7]

So pettersson going invisible in the playoffs last year is miller’s fault? Give me a break guys.

This screams it’s not Kreiders fault because Mika is a problem. They are both a problem lol

 

[duhmetreE]

Can we build the team to win in the playoffs please

 

[RangersFan1994]

 

[bleedblue94]

Spooky nonsense.

Thanks for the compelling response.

Stud top 4 d just oozing there.

I would deal kreider for bischel and a 2nd. I like him that much.

Some have been begging for that for years, while others keep watching regular season hockey and allowed it to blind them on what was needed for the last two rounds. Regardless this group wasnt getting it done and it's good they are moving on.
