Motte should fire his agent by the way

I bet he was offered 3x 900 k . Caps too tight for 4t

Panarin , Chytil , Wheeler
Kreider , Trotchek , Goodrow

Staple - The Athletic
“
First, let me say thanks for subscribing to the Rangers GM. Drury denied our report about the Rangers having gauged the trade market on Alexis Lafrenière, saying on Saturday afternoon that “there’s nothing further from the truth. I haven’t talked to one GM about Alexis. We hope he’s a Ranger for a long, long time.”

We’ll stand by our sources and agree to disagree. It was never going to be an easy decision to move the 2020 No. 1 pick and the Rangers were reportedly telling teams that inquired Saturday that they were not moving Lafrenière, so this may never have been more than sticking a finger in the wind. In any event, Lafrenière is here, he’ll likely sign for a year or two around $2.5-million per and he has a real chance in September to show he’s hungry for more with this team. The opportunity awaits.

Also, it won’t be the last time the GM and I are at odds, trust me.”

LOL. You should replace Torts' head with Drury's and Uncle Larry's with Staple's.

Some of those names aren’t intriguing, some of them are injured, and some of them have bad agents.

I'm hoping for:

Panarin-Mika-Kakko
Kreider-Trocheck-Wheeler
Laf-Pitlick-Chytil
Cuylle-Bonino-Vesey


Goodrow traded

If thats the lineup you can afford goody. And goody is better than pitlick, bonino, cuylle, vesey right now

Pass on all of em ty.

NO interest in most.
NO money for the 3 I'd personally consider
 
If this season doesnt include our 1oa and 2oa picks in the top 6 we can forget about it, nothing happens until those kids are a major part of this team, the vets make too much and you can't fill in the top 6 with guys like Vesey and Goodrow. Wheeler was a nice signing at that money but he should fill the 3rw spot not the 1rw spot.

Former 12th overall, which I didn't remember.

But, yeah, Bertuzzi and Domi are out of the $ window no matter what you think of them.

Yeah entirely possible that he’s just not going to be very good but he’s got size, speed and a heavy shot. If he’s willing to remold himself he can become a very useful player.

Someone will take a chance. But he’s a Russian so it probably wont be the Rangers.

Hopefully Lavi has no preconceived notions about who should be playing with who. Team needs a shake up in lines and pairs.

Lavi is much more in to puck pressure and the left wing lock than our previous coaches. He may adjust his lines based on his own preferences.

Saw Ryan Reeves got a 3 year contract for over 4 mill. I was surprised by the 3 years given his age.
