Speculation: Roster Building Thread - Part XXXIII

[Fitzy]

I never got Hajek. It should have been a red flag that the guy couldn't score points going back to like 12 years old.

I was dragged for saying that!

They were enamored by his skating I suppose though that's literally the only good part of his game

 

[DanielBrassard]

The Rangers-TB looks worse by day. The Rangers gave away McDonagh looking at the returns for D.

And Miller too. Just horrible.

 

[Fitzy]

Panthers give ZERO f***s about the future and I respect it.

The whole state is going to be underwater in 20 years so

Lol…..Sell…Sell…Sell!

 

[Tob]

I can see Drury stepping up last second for Chychrun. That's the only thing left that makes sense.

It was a weak return to begin with. Giving Miller away on top of it was the cherry on the shit sundae.

 

[Machinehead]

Yeah but his skating should lead to production if it's that much of a factor.

My favorite quote from Moneyball: "if he's a good hitter, why doesn't he hit good?"

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

That return on Lindholm is absurd.

 

[Vitto79]

Paul wants $3M AAV. Ottawa is at $2.85M. Those guys are so cheap. Ottawa has cap space. Paul wants to stay there. Ottawa doesn't attract many players if they have other options.

Do you think NYR should trade for and sign Paul for that ?

 

[Tob]

So the Flyers got the Kevin Hayes special?

 

[PuckLuck3043]

Stepan is not getting traded.

There is no war in Ba Sing Se.

First time I believe Brooks all season.

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

I mean the McD trade was 5 years ago. Not really apples to apples but I got the frustration

 

[DanielBrassard]

I can see Drury stepping up last second for Chychrun. That's the only thing left that makes sense.

I hope so. Chychrun-Fox would be such a good pairing.

 

[Rangers in 7]

Also, the guy to get from Chicago is Debrincat, not Kane.

While I agree debrincat will cost wayyy more then kane

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

The prices on these players getting moved signals to me the buy low path is what Drury is going to do. Radulov, Carpenter

Only big fish left is Giordano and Rakell

Tippett, 2024 #1 and 2023 #3 for Giroux

Hey (this is not directed at you at all but just in general) remember when I said in here a 2024 1st would somehow be a part of the deal? And also that he was never getting traded to the Rangers?

 

[Richard Banger]

Was literally just thinking the same and was looking back at that trade

I never liked Gorton and thought that trade was enough to fire his ass. Guess he had to do a little more damage first.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Do you think NYR should trade for and sign Paul for that ?

The Rangers are the last team that should be paying market value for a depth forward.

 

[rangers1314]

Word is that both Boston and Colorado had better offers for Claude G

 

[KOVALEV022473]

The whole state is going to be underwater in 20 years so

I thought That was supposed to be in 2012.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

The Rangers-TB looks more worse by the day. The Rangers gave away McDonagh looking at the returns for D.

That trade was made 4 deadlines ago. The market was what the market was. The market this year is clearly different, we were just unlucky in the timing. Comparing the returns makes no sense. Flat cap is inflating value of salary retention among other things.

I ran into @Riche16 at Harpoons Harry he brought up HF let’s GOOO

That was a weird day. It looked McDonagh was not being traded. Then the Rangers were trading McDonagh. The Rangers had issues with Miller. He missed a curfew and AV got mad at him. It seems the entire organization had no faith in him. TB immediately traded him to Vancouver one year later.

The Rangers didn't want to extend McDonagh and Miller.

The Nash trade was solid.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Both you and Uninstaaled hate small people

I'm 5'4 and 130 LBs, and I'm very offended by this.

Should not have traded either one, and I said as much at the time. We got corn holed.
