Confirmed Signing with Link: Vesey signs with the New York Rangers

[Schenn]

Aw damn ha. Best if luck Jimmy!

 

[Royal Thunder]

Will he even be as good as Kevin Hayes is the question

 

[Gee Wally]

Congrats Rangers.
You're getting a helluva good kid.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Why Rangers? Their window has closed.

Yeah it would have made sense in 2014 when Hayes signed, but right now? Their future isn't looking too great after they have bled picks and prospects over the years and have numerous horrid contracts with a heavily declining roster.

 

[GoldiFox]

Rangers have a ton of good young top-9 wingers.

 

[Beerz]

some people compare him to Ladd... is that a good comparison? Ladd hits quite a lot and his hit total is always high at season's end. Does JV hit a lot too?

No...he's big and uses his body for puck protection...but he's not physical

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Damn gratzky thank god

 

[LeafalCrusader]

 

[JetsWillFly4Ever]

Honestly don't think he will be all that good of a player. NCAA stats don't impress me that much considering he's 23.

That being said, happy he never went to the Leafs after half their fanbase claimed he was going there for sure.

 

[Machinehead]

Still not Brassard

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

If he wants top 6 icetime, I'm confused. Rangers have very good wingers.

 

[JT Kreider]

Why Rangers? Their window has closed.

Because of two bad games against the Penguins?

 

[Vitto79]

Let's go rangers ! Need kids like this after giving picks up

 

[Dijock94]

Cool didn't expect him to sign with us honestly but we need young players worse than anybody right now.

 

[Sabre Dance]

Jimmy chose Hayes over Eichel, lol. He went to Harvard? Enjoy your 30 points.

 

[rodney dangerfield]

Rangers? lol, would much rather play with Eichel or O'Rielly than Stepan or Zibanejad.

 

[Auston Matthews]

Glad he didn't choose Toronto. We have plenty of guys who will be better than Vesey.

Surprised he chose the Rangers, a team that is on its last legs.

 

[Rad Dude83]

Common sense called it. Good luck with the Rags!

 

[Menzinger]

Boston fans just learned that geography really doesn't have much of a draw when it comes to attracting talent.

 

[Jyrki Lumme]

Thank god, we never have to hear the name Jimmy Vesey again.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

 

[BB88]

I'm not even mad because atleast it's .....ng over

Dont see Rangers future as that great but well done Rangers.

 

[Drew311]

There has to be a Vessy - Hayes connection.

 

[SB84]

I was responding to a guy saying that Buffalo would boo Vesey during games. Which is totally ridiculous given the situation. That's it and that's all.

But they absolutely will. Calgary booed Tim Erixon when he did the same thing.

 

[PemIceKing]

Damn!
