Speculation: Roster Building Thread: Part XXI (Will these playoffs ever F'ing end?)

Trade one of consistent physical defenseman the Rangers have. Rather trade K'Andre Miller over Schneider. I guess Rangers fans love soft defense that doesn't hit or play defense. What's next resign Ryan Lindgren this summer. It would cost way more than Schneider for Peterka.
Some Rangers fans like seeing their team get beat up.
 
Truth!

Would have been 1 mil+ higher AAV if not for the NMC. Mika left money on the table to stay a Ranger for the rest of his career.
Which is fair and what he negotiated.

NYR have to be consistent. We ditched Goodrow because he didn't leave money for a NMC. Mika has earned the right to play here. They can ask him to waive, heck if thy get desperate hey can demote him in the lineup, but that's all they should be doing.

The Rangers already suffered their first loss this offseason when Brad Shaw joined the Devils staff. I thought Shaw would have been perfect for the Rangers. He has a very good track record working with defensemen in his various NHL stops. St. Louis. Columbus. Philadelphia.

Dave Pagnotta had that information last week. He turned out to be correct. Pagnotta also had the Rangers looking to move Artemi Panarin a few weeks ago. Hopefully, the Rangers do move Panarin this summer.

Why didn't the Rangers hire Shaw? Maybe Shaw didn't want to move. I am assuming Shaw lives in south Jersey. The Flyers usually are based in that area. It's a long drive from south Jersey to Newark but it's not impossible. Shaw wants to be a head coach. Maybe he feels Sheldon Keefe's job status is shaky. I read something about the Devils being interested in hiring Mike Sullivan last summer if he was available. If the Rangers didn't have a coaching vacancy this spring, maybe the Devils would have fired Keefe to hire Sullivan.

I read Pat Verbeek was interested in Steven Stamkos last summer. Maybe Verbeek is interested in Panarin. Joel Queeneville is there.

Goodrow wasn't worth his cap hit. This past year, neither was Mika. He needs to step up or GTFO.

Shaw isn’t enough of a retread for the Rangers. What’s Jacques Martin up to?

EF is reporting the Rangers are testing the market for K'Andre Miller. He reported Bowen Byram was on the market a few weeks ago. Some people heard the pod. They told EF to add Miller to his list of available D. His name is definitely out there.



If this is the case, it would appear as though Miller either doesn't want to sign long term or the Rangers are unwilling to give him a long term deal. I know people dislike Soucy but having him around as insurance in case Miller is traded makes some sense.
 

Could Jack be the new Bennet? Would Bread be interested? Who do we add from Utah?
I'm not sure he has a reliable 40P in him starting next season. I'm also not sure he has a 50P pop-off in a few years.

But still, shave off 10P and he pretty much is. Utah should keep him around, but I'd love to have him.

I don't think he's part of the Bread convo, but as the 2nd or 3rd piece in the deal, I'm at least listening.
 
KAM is an unsigned RFA, his name should be out there so they Rangers can see what his value is. Doesnt mean they have to trade him. Im not really interested in giving him a long term contract. If no one blows Drury away with an offer, give him a 2 year deal to free agency.

I saw Seravalli say that Kreider doesnt want to leave because he needs 11 more goals to move into 2nd all time for the Rangers. Whoop dee doo. These players learned nothing and still want to hold the team hostage. Enjoy Buffalo Chris, or enjoy waivers. There will be a beautiful tribute for you at MSG when you return. We need the cap space.

No, Panarin most likely wouldn't be interested in moving to play for a new franchise in his last remaining contract year.

Why would UTAH trade him? I’d offer Jones and 2ed for him. But is he a 3rd line center? I’d take a chance on him but I want him to succeed. Brings size grit toughness, can PK.
