ROSTER MOVES
* Send down
JT Miller to CT for a while. Him and
Kreider get to form
The NYR Black Ace squad (maybe along with
Lindberg & Fast) for an eventual NYR playoff run
* Sign
MZA to a one-way deal (1-2 seasons) when his KHL team is eliminated
* Give
Big Mac a cup of coffee taste in NYC after the trade deadline in a couple of tough inter division games (considering standings). Maybe Apr 13 vs The Piles, Apr 16 in Philly and/or April 21 vs The Devils.

Steve Eminger, 2013 3rd rounder, ev midlevel prospect traded to Edmonton for
