    Well that's a massive yikes on the Vegas trade! I'm not sure Vegas would trade Theodore straight up for Eichel let alone adding an insane amount of assets.


    This. Theodore is on a sweetheart contract. Costs half the price of Eichel, and most importantly isn’t hurt!

    I’m not being a homer here when I say this. I can’t think of one player I would trade Krebs-Tuch-Theodore for…. Biggest reason….they TOGETHER make 11 million the next three years. With a flat cap. That’s locked in guaranteed. Eichel isn’t going to fetch this, I can tell you that

    I guess you don't understand 25 > 24.


    i assume you are just trolling at this point, but you a trying to split hairs over 1 goal.
    not to mention completely ignoring the Rangers lineup needs.

    Buffalo has zero assets that would bolster the Rangers lineup worth giving up 15 and Georgiev.
    if Buffalo wants ADA, they can have him for free on July 1 when he gets bought out...

    Eichel > Theodore. Simple facts. I think you're showing your ignorance, not me.


    I'll take the guy that plays full seasons and is top 10 at his position in scoring thanks.

    Theodore full seasons 0 (most GP 79, 71, 61,53)
    Eichel full seasons 0 (most GP 81,77,68,67)

    Years top 10 at his position in scoring:
    Theodore: 2019 (10),
    Eichel: 2019(4),

    So, you mean Eichel?

    What team doesn't need goal scorers? Saying you don't need a player that would've been the highest scoring player on your team this year is pretty ridiculous.

    You seemed to have missed this season for Theodore...
    Theodore has missed 6 games over the last 3 years. Eichel has missed 41

    stop looking at things in a bubble. assuming a team needs Reinhart just cause he tucked 24 is as short sighted as it comes.
    using that logic, 25 teams need Reinhart...

    I don't think so. He played 53/56 games and scored 8 goals (t-13th). Maybe you seemed to miss something.

    Never said teams need Reinhart. Just stating that every GM in the league would want to have the #11 goal scorer in the league on their team.

    LMFAO, my god you love to cherry pick stats to try and fit your asinine narratives. Theodore was 8th in points by D-men...

    You are either a troll or really dumb.

    No one said points. I didn't set the parameters. These are your parameters, "I'll take the guy that plays full seasons and is top 10 at his position in scoring thanks."

    I think you're might be the one that needs to look in the dictionary and understand words. After you do that, I'm sure you'll be able to hold conversations much better.

    "Scoring" refers to points for normal people. Goals would have meant goals. tears of joy

    Just for reference... "NHL Art Ross Trophy Winners Award presented since 1948 to League's scoring champion"

    Oh, right, so when Tuch scores a goal and Theodore assists on it, the announcers say, "Theodore scored!!". Umm, nope. Tuch scored. Vegas scored. Theodore got the assist. No one in their right mind would say that Theodore scored.

    "He scored an assist!" ....said no one ever

    how does a player with less than 25 games as a C make a "good 2C"?
    his sample size as a C doesn't make him good at the position.

    his next contract ask is going to be high and I'd rather have Buch over Reinhart...


    Better than Strome.. 25 games isn’t a bad sample size considering the division he was in. To be clear, I’m not saying I want this trade. Just stating that he could allow us to move Strome and keep all our wings. Also only losing Geo and ADA and a 1st seem like a great deal

    I can't wait to hear you scream, "Theordore scored" when he gets an assist. That is gonna make you look really dumb.

    Honestly, I think the trade is a big win for NYR. BUF needs a goalie and Reinhart wants out. In another world, where Reinhart signs long-term with BUF, there is no way I'd make this trade.

    25 games does not qualify ANYONE to be a good 2C when you have played wing your entire career.

    Fine, he looked good in 25 games. Strome has never looked good at C. So getting the better player to be the insufficient 2C is still an upgrade.. for the cost of nothing. And the possibility that he actually is a good 2C is just gravy

    Never mentioned Reinhart, specifically. You seem to have some problem with him specifically, that you are unable to illustrate through words.
