I'm not saying Rangers will move Chytil into the 2 spot, but if they did could they retain Buchnevich?

sign Bellemare for the 4C to match up and you can try out Zib and Chytil as the "offensive centers" and Goodrow and Bellemare as the match up centers... I dunno
 
I got to hold the Stanley Cup with Shatty today :cool:

I have a few things I can share:
-I think Gauthier and Howden were 1a and 1b to get traded
-We need to stay far, far away from Eichel
-Vegas is high on Peyton Krebs, don't expect to move Strome or Zbad there unless the return revolves around Glass
-Mika has a wedding in August, may get off to a slow start again
-Strome has been taking his career more seriously since joining the Rangers
-The culture of the team is soft and lazy, Gallant should be able to help with that
-Our next captain falls under those categories
-While I think Kakko will be fine, gun to my head we would have been better off not winning the lotto and landing Zegras
-Don't be surprised if Kreider gets time at RW, especially if Buch gets dealt
-Morgan Barron is living and training with Kreider. Also as big and strong as Kreider. Could be a difference maker as soon as next year
-Bitetto is a great team guy and is setting up a team trip for bonding

I think that's everything I can share without breaching trust
Next captain is Trouba?

You mean one of the most productive centers in the league? Yea I think we’ll be just fine with him at 2C
Maybe when he has a cough. Dude, right now, can barely lead the puck out of the zone let alone help lead a team to the playoffs. I pray I am wrong and just a horrible person! God bless.

You realize Glass just got traded for a similar bust? His value is minimal. Vegas would have had to pony up something significantly better than Glass.

Are you saying that the next captain IS soft and lazy? Or the the next captain is someone who helps with turning that around lol

Best bet odds for next captain I think is Trouba or Laf

It's one wedding man, it's not like he is preparing for it. He will be wasted, get an one day hangover and life goes on.

Everyone saying Drury is alone is not correct. You know Sather is there helping along the way and advising

True, but there is so much going on at the same time. People have different ins at different places. Intel on players. Etc etc etc.

I am just a firm believe in talented personnel. I don’t buy the reasons for running a tight organization.

I think Seattle is going to take ADA. Worst case scenario if he f***s around they just send him home and he never gets another NHL contract and best case scenario he's figured out how to not be an asshole all the time and performs as he always has. he's the best talent NYR is going to expose for the expansion draft and if I'm the expansion draft GM, I take the player with the most talent.
Anyway you look at it ADA is better than either Gauthier, Rooney, or Blackwell

Literally zero risk potentially high reward move for Seattle.

0% chance. They have gone out of their way to appeal to the culture of Seattle. They are going to risk taking on DeAngelo’s unique baggage when trying to build a fanbase?! Absolutely no chance.
