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

[DanielBrassard]

I wonder if a team like Edmonton has called about Quick. I'm sure NYR would give Quick the final say .. do you think he would be open to 1 last crack at a Cup as a [potential] starter?

You tell us lol.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

If Drury traded 2 young C's for an unsigned rental, there would be attempts made on his life by members of this board.

I agree but calling Necas a C is a stretch

 

[will1066]

Dumolin to the Devils. I guess they are still buyers.

2nd rd pick going back to Ducks

 

[duhmetreE]

I can guarantee Reilly Smith is traded in the next 27.25 hours.

*Insider*

any other rumblings?

 

[zlev]

lmao Dumoulin sucks

 

[Matt Rentfree]

2nd rd pick going back to Ducks

and a prospect as well apparently. I would imagine it has to be a C level prospect.

 

[McRanger92]

2nd rd pick going back to Ducks

Thats a lot for Dumolin, who looked like toast back in 2022 when he was losing footraces in the playoffs to Kaapo Kakko. reilly Smith better bring back at least a 2nd.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

2nd rd pick going back to Ducks

Thats an ooph.

He's cooked.

 

[DanielBrassard]

The devils needed another slow plodding LD with no offense? Don’t understand that move.

Not exactly Hamilton-level replacement

On a related note, what's Yegor Rykov up to I wonder

The prospect is Herman Traff

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

The prospect is Herman Traff

NJD 3rd rounder last year who played for Team Sweden in the last WJC.

 

[McRanger92]

Can we get a first for Smith (50% retained) and Zac Jones? Id think yes given these prices being paid.

The kid was a dead ringer for James Franco

 

[mas0764]

Would be nice if this f***ing team could actually draft one of those guys. Maybe Gabe is finally the one?

But you need 3-4, not one.

 

[mas0764]

In a different framework, maybe Ehlers could work.

I've mentioned this before -- I look at that Jets roster and man, them being a the top of the standings has roulette wheel written all over it.

I'd be salivating as a wildcard team in the West.

In many respects, I think they, like us, aren't "for real."

21 points in 29 games with Seattle.

Oh, and he's 23. The Rangers are stupid.

He has an outside shot at 55 points if he keeps producing at that pace.

 

[mas0764]

Fox Mafia!



Top 4 LHD is our biggest long term need. Eye on the ball Chris.

Please liquidate Kreider for a top pair young LD

I want to see Drury continue to be aggressive. The structure is returning to the team but we need another top 6 forward and a top 4 defenseman.

Double that number.

 

[Guyute]

Dumolin to the Devils. I guess they are still buyers.

Yeah that ought to do it for them

 

[bl02]

Id like Rantanen on the Rangers. He's the type who is more in the mold of JT than Mika/Panarin. Not so sure about the contract he wants, but Im open to discussions. People are really underrating him since the trade.

You wanna give another winger 13 million dollars?
Pass unless I am getting him for 93 who is gonna cost us big money for 6 more damn years

 

[duhmetreE]

Walman and a 3C. I would say maybe Sturm but I’m meh on that

That’s what I want.

 

[mas0764]

If Drury traded 2 young C's for an unsigned rental, there would be attempts made on his life by members of this board.

If he could get Rantanen signed, that would at least be the type of move I'm interested in.

28 is pushing my limits though.

Only way Rantanen makes sense is if Zibs is going the other way and Panarin is moved eventually.

I just don’t think he’s worth 13-14M

If Dumoulin (who?) is fetching a 2nd and a 3rd, than Walman will fetch a 1st.

 

[bl02]

I can't believe fans are really interested in giving a winger 13 million plus. A guy who we have no idea if he can perform at an elite level without having the best center (and probably hockey player) in the world to play with.
And to boot give up assets for him
