Is he a less productive Hagelin? That's what it sounds like by the description.
Probably like how we worry about Ryan Lindgren and his career.We're gonna miss him... you're gonna love him.
I would have been hellbent on signing him and keeping him, but his style of play is not conducive to a long career with a slow decline.
Motte reminds me of Hagelin. one of the most underrated players in the league. I hope he resigns.I mentioned Motte maybe a week ago. I’m curious what his next deal will look like. He’s kind of like Fast but a bit more overtly physical. I wonder if Drury specifically makes him a priority to help continue to build the bottom-6.

Hagelin was physical at times along the boards. He was good along the walls. He was not a big hitter. But he used his speed and body in other ways. both play a similar style differently. Motte is a better bodychecker than Hagelin.With Motte being more physical. I'll definitely take it.

What are chances we resign him?
I know it’s early on but I have a hunch Drury traded for Copp and Motte with the intention of keeping both around behind this year. They fit the mold
Classic Rongos. They sign Copp for $5.5M, Motte for $2.25M. Screw the cap hootch and buy someone out in 4 yearsI think Copp is a guy they're going to look at make a determination, and I think it plays into what they think they're going to do with Chytil and Strome. I suspect Copp is going to ask for 5 years @ $5M per, how far the Rangers go towards that will be a determining factor I think in whether Copp wants to stay.
On Motte, I think it'll be interesting, he's on a $1.25M number right now, which is not huge, but with the Rangers with limited Cap space, it might be tough to keep him unless he really is a difference maker. Part of the challenge is he is more a left winger specialist than some of the other guys who can play center/left wing like Rooney and Hunt...and he doesn't produce as much as a guy like Vatrano (who I don't expect to be here next year).
He's a good player and will definitely help in the playoffs. Nice person as well.Nice to see Canucks fans stopping by to say nice things and not dunk on us. That’s a good sign.
