Speculation: Roster Building Thread : Part XVIII ( TDL is March 7th)

[RangersFan1994]

Kinda wish we poached the Bs for Zacha

If he was really available, I'm sure he would have been dealt.

 

[tiggles]

Any word on if/when drury will address the media?

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

well today was a bust on multiple levels

Wow it's super interesting how a "win now" team moved out a current producing player for essentially picks and prospects, I thought that wasn't allowed.

Who?

And yet we aren't really any better and we definitely aren't younger. We left a retention slot open with more cap space then all but I think 5 teams. We have a glut of left d, none of which are great, a RD that seems to be massively overvalued that we arent cashing in on. and a ton of wingers with not enough spots. More was needed. Now we just tread water till June. We definitely won't be playing any games past April.

We're second in the league in wins since early February, iirc from the MSG broadcast the other night.

What if the Lindgren, Smith, and Soucy deals were all today?

 

[LOFIN]

I disagree, it was the right move to be quiet.

 

[FIRE DRURY]

Shea Weber was available and numbnuts Drury doesn't trade for him. What an asshole.

Can't fix everything at once.

Zac Jones truthers can stop doomposting about him getting traded without a fair shot as he's QB'ing PP1.

 

[NYR Viper]

Drury has done good work up to this point remaking this roster. It's not complete but that's okay, it wasn't possible to do that at this time. We'll see where the chips fall from now until the end of the year

 

[Fitzy]

My parents alway used to say on Christmas after we had opened the biggest present so we wouldn't be underwhelmed with the smaller gifts that we'd open later.

Drury should have declared Miller as the big gift

 

[Reijo29]

Great job by Drury, subtle solid moves

Thought Vancouver or Edmonton would bite.
Thought wrong.

Who?

Canes... Necas for Stankoven and two firsts apparently

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Hopefully Kreider will come back into the lineup and have good finish to the season and increase his value for the summer.

Im sure the offers werent up to par and you cant just trade him for trade sake. With some of the returns we saw this week you have to get proper value.

 

[Machinehead]

Dallas has what they need to win the Cup now

 

[Profet]

And they don't make that deal if Rantanen signed on the dotted line.

I'm resigned to the fact that Kreider will be here till he rots and is worth nothing.

Which is sooner rather than later.

that wasnt their original plan…theyre salvaging the ratananen situation

The defense is a bit iffy but they're going to stomp Colorado whose defense isn't really much better.

Impossible to hide Lindgren when the forwards are as stacked as theirs are.

 

[Richard Banger]

They’ll lose to Florida

Miller has 14 points in 12 games since the trade, but goddamn why wasn't the trade made TODAY? Would've changed the WHOLE COMPLEXION of TODAY!

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Its funny to me how they have Vesey inked in as the 4th line winger on Colorado but he couldnt crack the lineup for the Rangers this year
