Roster Building Thread V (2022-23): Cheese and WINE

[Daves a mess]

Any of you guys watch Rick Bowness eviscerate his top players after being eliminated last night?

It was awesome

 

[Daves a mess]

The men in Hartford that play with jump and jam and never take a shift off are:

Blidh
Jones
Cuylle
Trivigno
Henriksson
Pajunieni
Hajek
Gettinger
Rempe

Whether any have the skills to compete and make a difference at the NHL playoff level is uncertain.

Gettinger is slower than Rosie O'Donnell driving uphill in a Pruis.

But point taken

I hope they re-sign Blidh, I think he'd be a fine option for a 13F. Jones should be up next year, as long as the new coach won't be disappointed by his height. Paju will be gone wish we got to see more of him in the pre-season. I think Cuylle will have an actual shot next year unless Motte signs a year deal worth less than a mil which I doubt he will.

This will surely fix everything.

I like how he goes back to one of the worst lines he put together all season in KZT. Lmao.

How much does WFAN pay Boomer?

Boomer thinks Rangers got 'damaged goods' with Patrick Kane

Boomer Esiason is convinced that Patrick Kane is playing hurt, and believes the Rangers might have gotten fleeced at the trade deadline with Kane’s health.

Kane struggled to stay out of the penalty box, or to slow down the speedy Devils, in a disastrous game five effort, the fourth game this series where he has looked overmatched. Boomer believes it’s more than just aging, and that the Rangers may have been fleeced at the trade deadline.

“There’s something wrong with him physically,” Boomer said. “Maybe the Rangers got sold a bill of goods that he was healthy, and he’s not healthy. That’s what he looks like to me.

“I think they got damaged goods with Patrick Kane.”

Kane had a hip injury with the Blackhawks shortly before the trade, but just before the deal was struck, he logged 10 points in four games to seemingly put out those concerns. Now, they’re back, and whether the Rangers were fleeced or not, Kane simply has to play better.

“He looks like he’s skating in mud against the Devils,” Boomer said. “I don’t know what he’s doing.

“They’re trying to move him around and get him away from people. Guys are skating past him…a lot of times he gets the puck, he’s turning it over.”

Can someone let Boomer know?

Put Panarin and Kane together.

tomorrow night is gonna be a disaster. one of the worst days in franchise history.

 

[Fitzy]

We’re too committed to “blow it up” that’s not happening. We will though trade Panarin, Goodrow, and maybe one other and get some yes I’m gonna say it - TRUCULENCE

I mean, that is blowing it up in my mind.

Not meaning a rebuild, but several key pieces of the core being moved.

Teams don't usually trade multiple high salary players in one offseason. Philly trading Carter and Richards was, in fact, blowing it up.

 

[zlev]

my lines would be

Panarin-Zibanejad-Tarasenko
Kreider-Trocheck-Kane
Vesey-Chytil-Kakko
Goodrow-Brodzinski-Motte
Lafreniere scratched

 

[The Crypto Guy]

my lines would be

Panarin-Zibanejad-Tarasenko
Kreider-Trocheck-Kane
Vesey-Chytil-Kakko
Goodrow-Brodzinski-Motte
Lafreniere scratched

Why is Panarin playing on the top line while Laf is scratched? At least one of those 2 players looks like he gives a f*** on the ice.

It took this long for Boomer to see Kane was cooked?

....ok?

If this is Laf giving a f*** I'd hate to see what he looks like when he doesn't give one lol

Wait till next year. He's just playing around now in the country club atmosphere that Panarin set up within the team.

I see no chance Bettman would reinstate Quennville to get back into the game with Bettman’s “good buddy” Dolan. Absolutely no chance.

Quennville may be reinstated for a place like Winnipeg or San Jose but not New York. Absolutely no way.

The alternative to Gallant, should things go that way, is probably Andrew Burnette.

This Andrew Burnette?

Great another 108 point season and out in the first round.

Brunette with Jacques Martin.

Brunette seemed to somewhat adapt with the Devils. The team is attacking a lot like Florida did last season but they are also trapping through the neutral zone. I do not know how it would look with our personnel but at this point, I just want some modern day tactics.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

I feel when things go south, I always look to break up Mika and Kreids.

I'd immediately go to the Kreider - Trocheck combo and base any new lines off of that.

Kaako should be paying with Zibanejad at all times and honestly, Lafreniere played his best on that line too

 

[NYR Viper]

Just FYI, this is Panarin and Duchene's remaining real dollars owed after 7/1 of this year...

I would hope Brunette but a) I don't see the Devils letting him interview with NYR b) he might even be the Devils head coach next season if they don't re-sign Ruff who does not have a contract for next season

 

[Daves a mess]

Yupppp

 

[RUNYR]

tomorrow night is gonna be a disaster. one of the worst days in franchise history.

What’s even worse, is, tickets are declining in prices which probably means tons of fans unloading them to likely Devils fans. I fully expect tomorrow night to be the most populated MSG has been with red in awhile.

 

[duhmetreE]

Duchene + 2nd '23 + 2nd '24 for Panarin

Zadina + 1st for Trouba

Move on

I don't know about either of those.


It depends what 1st you're talking about with Trouba.
