Speculation: Roster Building Thread - Part XXXIII

[bleedblue94]

Offence from our bottom 6 is next to non existent.

Anything that gets McKegg and Gauthier off the roster is a good thing.

Goodrow Chytil Kessel as a 3rd line is a huge upgrade over anything we have right now.

Massive upgrade

Where is kakko playing when he gets back?

Would this trade work?

Lundkvist and Kravtsov to Blackhawks for Lukas Reichel?

Rangers get forward prospect depth. Blackhawks get defensive prospect depth.

Chicago says no, IMO. But I do like Reichel. I'd like him more if he was a RW instead of a LW.

 

[RangerBoy]

Scotty was in Tampa scouting for the Black hawks…thinking he’s looking at the Rangers

Scotty Bowman lives there.

 

[TheBloodyNine]

Idk how limited his NMC is but it will be at least 2 1sts if he gets moved or 2 pieces with the value of a 1st

It's a complete NMC right now which eventually becomes a limited that includes half the teams in the league.

 

[Rangers in 7]

Stephenson's not available unless we get stupid with a massive overpayment of prospects & picks. Vegas can't take salary back this year or for the foreseeable future. HIs salary makes him invaluable to them, so they'd probably look to move Karlsson out instead.

Vegas is in cap hell, idc if they want to trade karlsson. We will take both of them lol

 

[Vitto79]

If Seattle is willing to take 2 2nds and a B prospect for Gio I’d do it. Rangers need another reliable defenseman badly. Nemeth is a 7 and Schneider is being asked to do a lot

Nope they don’t . If they get a Kulak for less and sit Nemeth fine

Spend more on a F if they go that route

2nd Line RW

Vatrano can shift to 4th line

I believe he can play all 3 forward positions. I think he was drafted as a center.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Why is today's GDT locked?

 

[RangersFan1994]

How about Soucy from the Krakken for a 2ed (blues)?

he is a big man clears the crease and can skate and hit, has good stats on a bad team. Wild should have kept him. underrated player.

 

[Peltz]

2nd Line RW

Vatrano can shift to 4th line

Agreed. Valtrano isn't showing much on that line. I really would prefer moving him down in the lineup when Kakko comes back.

Too much. A 3rd or 4th rounder gets it done.

 

[Mac n Gs]

Please rescue my son, Chris. He makes way too much sense as a long-term piece with this core.

 

[RangersFan1994]

Too much. A 3rd or 4th rounder gets it done.

I rather go after him than De Hann. I would like Giordano but I don’t see Drury paying a 1st for rental. And I hope he does not unless the said player is resigned right away. Like with Reaves.

He's signed through next year. He doesn't make sense for this team. I pass.

2nd Line RW

Vatrano can shift to 4th line

Vatrano is a better player than Kessel at this point in his career and neither is a 4th line player. Both are 3rd liners. With vatrano here Kessel is redundant and pointless unless kakko is out longer than we know.

 

[RangerBoy]

Ron Francis works slow. During his tenure in Carolina, Francis didn't make one player for player/multiplayer trade. Jeff Marek and Elliotte Friedman were discussing this topic last week. Francis works slow. Giordano has a 19 team trade list. He can be traded to 19 teams. Giordano wants to be traded for the Maple Leafs. His camp has let everyone in the media know about that. Seattle is willing to retain money. The Rangers don't need any salary retained. Two second round picks or a 2nd and a prospect for 38 year old D to play on the 3rd pair? Really?

[DanielBrassard]

I would rather grab Kulak than trade 2 2nds or the equivalent for Giordano

 

[Lays]

Would this trade work?

Lundkvist and Kravtsov to Blackhawks for Lukas Reichel?

Rangers get forward prospect depth. Blackhawks get defensive prospect depth.

Again with the EANHL prospect for prospect trades. These trades don’t happen in real life

Didn’t Francis make the Hamilton trade that Fox was in?

 

[Lays]

Wouldn’t have minded Hagg for us depending on price. He’s always pretty high up in hits amongst players and keeps them clean. For a 4th he’s a solid 6/7D

I mean not often and def not high end prospects but occasionally you’ll get stuff like keane for gauthier type stuff. I’ve been hoping lundkvist can be our version of rundblad. Trade him at the draft for a team on the board and select a (hopefully falling) lambert or some other high skilled center.
