Speculation: Roster Building Thread XI

[haveandare]

Sounds like hot air, but if it's really anything, has to be about Eichel. That's the only thing I can think of that would elicit such a visceral reaction.

Kakko id think

I thought all the podcast guys wanted Eichel though. Someone needs to make a spreadsheet tracking the extended Rangers posting universe and their beefs, confusing offseason master plans, favorite/least favorite players etc

 

[haveandare]

Who they plan on naming captain, not sure when that is, is soft and lazy. Also had the highest body fat tested on the team.

Doesn’t the coach name a captain? Gallant hasn’t even seen most of these guys on the ice.

They both really want Eichel. Kaplan has been wanting to trade better players for Klefbom for the longest time. He's terrible with trades.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Kakko for Eichel wouldn't elicit that sort of reaction.

 

[Lindberg Cheese]

The only thing I didn’t like about today was our failure to take advantage of the 3rd D slot.

did the Isles f*** up their list D requirement? What’s the penalty?

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

No idea if these guys actually hear anything

Based on what I know about how this dude usually thinks: must’ve been one of our well liked players and/or prospects for a big name with bad analytics.

No one from there has proven to have any credibility.

A podcast that has been desperately trying to build a following for years now saying something boisterous while also giving as little information as possible should only draw conclusions that they still have absolutely nothing to work with, rather than actually giving it any credence. Nothing adds up there.

 

[Lindberg Cheese]

I'd air on the side of no

The Dallas return on Krieder left me pretty pissed off! Dunno what this guy is talking about

But Messier supports them.

Isn’t that a benefit?

Suter - Smith or another UFA Signing

 

[IDvsEGO]

I was just doing wordplay. I don’t really have a strong opinion on cap specifics. I’m not privy to what the front office knows. But I would agree in principle that the both six should be generally lower cost players.

The reason you trade buch, is even though he's a top 6 player, we have younger and likely better wingers who should be in the top 6. He has value since he's still an RFA, and he is a point per game player who does well defensively.
Get value for him rather than letting him walk for nothing.

Messier tends to support people with ass-seeking lips

Gottem!

Love where you’re going but Strome gets flipped for a LD like Soucy cause we ain’t gonna get Suter. I’d tweak the a Larkin deal a bit as well

If you trade for Kupari why wouldn't he be on the 4th line? Otherwise not bad scenarios

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

Don't think it would serve Kupari well if he plays on the 4th line. Hed be the first callup if someone in the top 9 went down.

I'd absolutely 100% rather include the '21 first than the '22. Also i'd rather go long term on chytil, and don't see a good reason to go get kupari if you're getting larkin and extending chytil. You have 4 center spots, if you go mika,larkin,chytil, tbd, you dont use kupari.

If you acquire Buch, you go with a bigger swing prospect. I'd go for someone like holloway or a '22 first.

As much as Suter would be a perfect fit for us, I have a feeling both him and parise end up in LI.

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

Boo wanted to see what would happen if they didn't meet the expansion draft requirements

 

[pld459666]

Do we know who was protected officially??

 

[Alluckks]

But Messier supports them.

Yah, Messier has also used any media outlet possible any time there is an inkling of availability in the Rangers front office or coaching staff and he hasn't even solicited a legitimate interview out of it lol

Messier was a great player, but what he says or wants carries about as much weight as Incarcerated Bob tweets

I know they needed to sign him for the draft but damn Lou just can’t quit this guy haha
