Speculation: Roster Building Thread XXXVI: The End (The Apocalypse Is Now)

[HockeyBasedNYC]

@HockeyBasedNYC - From the last thread:



I mean young as in maybe a 24/25/26 year old. Not a guy on an ELC or who they plan on building around.

I still like the idea, I was being silly.

We shouldn’t rule out a double move like that whether they have time to pull it off tomorrow or around the draft and/or including other pieces to land such player.

JDJG know they are headed into the second or third phase of the rebuild/build now and they need to fill some roster gaps with younger established players who fit into their model, lineup and have term, ideally one that is staggered correctly on their cap chart.

Fair warning, Uncle Larry is going to milk this for all it’s worth.

Udderly predictable

 

[duhmetreE]

Gurianov, Robertson?

Guiranov would look nice with Panarin setting him up

PERFECT fit for the PP and the right wall.

I'd even add to Kreider to get quality back.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Ok.

Time to charge the phone and the brain.

Tomorrow is a biiig day!

Meatless Monday?

 

[Thirty One]

Did you guys SERIOUSLY blow through that thread I made this morning? Remember to come up for air FFS.

Well we had lots to talk about. Bogosian signing. Kovalchuk for a 3rd.

 

[Alluckks]

Chris Kreider has retired.

What kind of sauces are you enjoying and where can they be purchased?

Vodka sauce on deck and at your nearest local Italian grocer. Unless you prefer the homemade stuff of course.

MacK and Drouin reuniting should be interesting. Best Juniors duo ever.

 

[Richard Banger]

I got 3 clients tomorrow morning before 11 I'm going to make them do cardio while I F5 HF

Me too, I doubt it but if there is a larger deal to be made... still probably not, yet that would qualify as something that could make sense.

there goes another suitor if thats true

Just really glad it's all going to be over tomorrow.

Guys Mike Commodore does the same thing every deadline as a joke he is not a valid source

Looks pretty serious to me

I heard he's sponsored by Samsonite

He actually got a few things right last year.

 

[Machinehead]

Haven't heard any rumors about Skjei at all.

Why is he considered part of the core moving forward but Kreider isn't?

 

[Gr8CornHolio]

In honor of Staal rumors lets all Reminisce on this amazing moment over the past Ranger run

He does have some stuff right, not denying that. He is a goof though.

 

[Alluckks]

He was listed on TSN trade bait for a bit

He isn't part of the core imo

Anyone that wouldn't be protected in the expansion draft isn't a part of the core; and right now I think the 3 D protected would be Trouba, Deangelo, Lindgren

Edge has also talked quite a bit about potential Skjei trade

Well when you throw enough shit against the wall...

 

[Alluckks]

Well when you throw enough shit against the wall...

He does have some sources, but he is purposefully making stuff up a lot with no foundation because he is mocking hockey insiders and media, he also thinks it is funny to troll fanbases. He is just a bored loser

That was a hell of a meat and potatoes hard working hockey team. Adds to the sad feels that Hank will likely not get to win a cup here.

Edge and BBKers have both noted that Skjei's name is out there. Just might not be a deadline deal.

Dubinsky suckeddddddd that year, the worst year of his career, what a shame. I was expecting him to take another step in his development and go 30 goals/60 points, him regressing by 20 points killed us, and left us no choice but to trade him for Nash. How different things would have gone otherwise.

That was such a fun year too, and that western Canada trip early in the season where McDonagh exploded onto the season was like the happiest time of my life (I was a senior in college so the last hurrah) and I was so sure we were going to win a Cup very soon and #24 would one day hang from the MSG rafters.

Hagelin's first goal, the sick Callahan OT goal against Buffalo and his hat trick against the Flyers, Richards last second winner in PHX, the Winter Classic, the game against the Canes where Avery went coast to coast then top shelf and then scored 2 other goals like in a minute, the line brawl against the Devils, Kreider's first goal sparking the Game 6 victory in Ottawa to bring it home for Game 7, the triple OT Gaborik goal, so many happy memories.
