Speculation: Roster Building Thread: Part XVI

[HFsNumber1Heel]

Are there any rumors connecting us to Nylander?

"Yu no. His dad plaid foor the Rangas. He was wearin a Rangas joisey when he was six or seven in the pee wees. He waunts 2 be he-ya."

 

[HFsNumber1Heel]

So no waiver wire pickup and no callup. Please don't tell me they're going to go 11/7 again and give Strome top six minutes while limiting Gettinger's shifts. That's just bad in every way. It also shows how the org feels about Boo and Lettieri (I know Hartford plays tonight and is fairly close to Montreal since those two teams played in the old Adam Division).

Flyers have cap room to add Nylander. They're going to be shipping out parts soon regardless.

As for Soshnikov, I spoke to a friend from Missouri and he told me he's not bad but can be a little bit of a head case at times so take that for what it's worth.

How did Francesa get that insight?

Brooks said we’re practing with the same group but are planning on calling up a forward for tomorrow.

Well they could be expecting someone to be healthy for tomorrow. Alternatively they could be working out a trade instead of just taking a contract off someone's books for free. That's the tricky part about waiver claims that's often overlooked. You add a contract without sending one out.

They could have had a claim in for Zykov and missed out and just haven't yet made the call to compensate for not getting him.

Now that EDM has another big bodied-Right shot can they give us Poolparty. Cool thx.

So jealous!

 

[E-Train]

I'd go Gettinger-Fogarty-Mesakanen tomorrow. Lot of size compared to the likes of Spooner and Lettieri on the 4th line.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Zykov will do well there.

I wish we can give a thumbs down to posts.

You’re trying to hard...

Problem is that Strome is really a 4th liner. And that would bump him up.

Lettieri getting called up according to Brooks

Goody for us

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Do better this time Vinni.

I've seen enough... bring nieves up

On a healthy team I'd tend to agree, with this team he has to play up for now.

 

[Irishguy42]

Vinni torched the AHL since being sent down.

Deserved call up. Do something with it now that McLord isn't opposite on the line.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Did anyone claim Soshnikov?

 

[DutchShamrock]

Did anyone claim Soshnikov?

No, he cleared.

 

[LaffyTaffy]

Did anyone claim Soshnikov?

He and Darling both cleared

 

[Shesterkybomb]

No, he cleared.

Maybe it's because I haven't really watched him much since he was in Toronto but wouldn't he have been worth a claim for this team who is short on wingers?

Ironically your name is Heckler, I love it.

C'mon you know that's how the stereotypical Rangers fan talks. As I said again, my humor isn't for everybody but I will never stop trying. The main boards for as vile and nasty as they can be have some really funny stuff.

Also as your post above says, what am I trying to harden? Maybe the word too.

This is his chance, play like a bat out of hell. It would be silly to play him with Fogarty and Gettinger and have them play two shift after the second. Put Vinni with Mika and Fast, keep Chytil/Hayes/Kreider together, and move Strome down to the 4th line. Anderson with the Howden/Vesey duo please.

He only played 4 games there didnt he? I guess the reasoning is likely that we need a right winger for the lineup but I'd like to see what Nieves could do.
