Speculation: Roster Building Thread - Part XXXVII

[DanielBrassard]

Let's go?

 

[Savant]

Let's go?

Rangers need his contract and his production. Hope he gets a fair chance

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

So with krav now signed and at that number hes gotta be a lock to be on the roster

Laff-mika-kreider
Panarin-chytil-krav
Kakko-copp-blais
Motte-goodrow-reaves/cuylle?

Lindgren-fox
Kandre-trouba
Jones-schneider

What do we think blais is going to get contract wise? Because id love to have vatrano on that 3rd line but doubt we can afford it

It is starting to feel like kakko gets traded, just wonder for who

 

[Crease]

I think the writing is on the wall with Kakko and he’s going to get packaged for an affordable center.

Kreider - Zibanejad - X
Panarin - X - Lafreniere
Othmann - Chytil - Kravtsov
Motte- Goodrow - Blais

We'll start to find out how badly some guys are injured soon... we know Copp was banged up, the last 2 series' were rough, that line was awful but he had a good Pitt series and his regular season stint was great. Just about everybody was ready to pencil him for a few years. Theres some guys I buy the injury excuse for theres some I don't, we'll get an idea of how much an injury effected him. Definitely didn't help his cause with how Artemi and Strome played either. He looked like a completely different player as the playoffs went on. You have to wonder if he didn't play himself out of some money the last 2 series'. I'm still pretty high on the guy, I think he should be a good contingency plan, promote that kid line to the 2nd with Chytil at C, use Copp as the 3C and if that kid line has some bumps give Copps line some extra minutes.

Maybe lost some $ with how he finished the playoffs, keep the term fairly short in case you need to trade him to allocate it somewhere else. McCann is the comparable here, like Copp, put up his first 50 point season this year. We know Copp turned down 4mil X 5 years with the Jets, how badly does he want to stay in NY? Let's see if Drury can play hardball with him

What number? I just see 1 year 1 way no dollar amount.

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

What number? I just see 1 year 1 way no dollar amount.

$875K

 

[Sayba]

I do not want anything to do with Copp. He is not a top 6 forward, let him walk for anything over 4 million.

Kreider - Zibanejad - X

Dont think othmann makes the team next year personally. 2023-2024 he will

Othman?

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Should we look to trade Panarin?

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

Othman?

Dont think he’ll be ready next year.

 

[Taluss]

Should we look to trade Panarin?

Unrealistic imo

No more Chytil at C, please. That experiment should be over for good.

 

[broadwayblue]

Dont think he’ll be ready next year.

Maybe not...but he could get a look. Or possibly a mid season call up.

 

[Filip Chytil]

These are the times I wish Edge was still here to provide us a voice of reason.

 

[BobMarleyNYR]

Exactly! Sign Stastny/Vatrano. Kakko for Byfield or Dach..

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Rangers definitely need another star center for us to truly compete for a cup. I like Copp but we need a legitimate center that can put up 80 points?

Mark Scheifele?

 

[mas0764]

Based on what Kakko should get more than 1.5 mil? How much did he get paid in bonuses last 3 seasons?

I’ll be shocked if Kakko comes in at $1.5m.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Should we look to trade Panarin?

They could look but Panarin won't look to leave so it's a waste of time

 

[MrAlmost]

Honestly, I'm surprised. And it was really quick. We will see how it goes.

 

[AIexisLafreniereNYR]

Kakko+prospect+Goodrow for Mark Scheifele?

Mika-Scheif-Chytil would be elite center depth

 

[I Eat Crow]

Schiefele is the wrong type of player to target. We need a mean, tough SOB a la Bergeron or ROR. Any other ideas for centers in that mold besides those two?
