True, it's kind of like having a team option in that if he improves you can protect him but if he doesn't you don't. Although if he gets worse Seattle wont touch him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Book_Hockey</b></div><div>Skjei is an interesting case because he's pretty much a lock to go to Seattle when the time comes. I really don't think the Rangers protect him. Would Winny? If not, they could look at it as a 2 year deal as opposed to a 5 year one.</div></div>

Thread: Rangers

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Book_Hockey</b></div><div>Just my two cents. On lunch break here at work. This site is great for killing time.

1. Jost and 3rd with conditions it turns into a 2nd if Kreider resigns
2. Nobody is giving a first for Strome
3. Idk all players involved kind of stink/are headcases
4. I would do it if i were detroit
5. I think you could get more from SJ, i love Georgiev
6. That's a lot of moving parts but Detroit drafted MR pretty high so i dont think they want to move him, especially for Trouba who's under performing at 8 mil a year
7. Skjei kind of stinks but Winny needs help so I could see it</div></div>

Just my two cents (original poster is up four cents already, good work.).
1. Jost and a 2nd that becomes first if they win the Cup or resign Kreider.
2. Strome is worth a little more perhaps than Grabner when the Rangers traded him, but it still doesn't reach a 1st.
3.Fast is a nice player, though obviously not a big offensive threat. Probably a fair deal
4.Agree with you that it seems fair but we also agree NYR won't get the 1st from Calgary
5 Also agree maybe take out the pick going back to SJ
6 There is a lot going on there but beyond trying to figure out fair value in a 1 for many pieces swap o dont see them trading Trouba
7 Skjei is infuriating at times but he is, sadly, their best all around LHD right now. But if they trust that one of the prospects behind him will step up they might do it. But does Winnipeg want a sometimes shaky dman with that kind of cap hit?

Thread: Georgiev Deadline

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>oneX</b></div><div>I'm actually surprised Edmonton and NYR have not at least talked about swapping Andersson and Pool party.

Georgiev should not be fetching more than a pick and prospects. No offense but look what Grubaur went for when Washington traded or Bishop with Ottawa etc.</div></div>

There were reports that the Rangers offered Andersson for Puljujarvi even up and the Oilers said no. Puljujarvi hasn't shown a lot in North America but Andersson has shown even less.
As for Georgiev, I dont know if he makes sense for Toronto. He is more a guy to get if you think he can be your starter. The Leafs should just pick up a cheap backup.

Thread: Leafs as usual

Toronto should be trading for a real backup goalie like DeSmith or Dell, giving up only a mid round pick.
The Rangers should be trading Georgiev to a team looking for a young goalie who could be their starter. And more likely that will be at the draft.

Thread: NYR and Toronto trade proposal

As a Ranger fan I approve of this trade. However I'm not sure Skjei is the defenseman they need. And if they are just looking for a backup goalie they should just be spending a mid round draft pick for someone like DeSmith.

Thread: Fair for everyone TOR NYR

Georgiev to Toronto makes no sense unless the Leags see him as their starter in a year or two. If that is the case, he is worth more than a guy like Bracco who still somehow isn't seen as worth a look in Toronto. If they just want a backup there are plenty of vets out there that can be had for a mid round pick.

Thread: Paging Detroit Fans

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aedoran</b></div><div>Honestly AA for Georgiev 3rd is probably even value wise but I really don't think Detroit trades AA for a goalie. Their D still needs to much work before they put a young goalie in net. Detroit is 13 points behind the next worse team. Say Detroit trades for Georgiev and puts him in right away it could very well ruin him. NYI put up a snow man against Detroit last game and Howard has been pulled 4 times this season and you really can't blame Howard for those. Plus Gorton would be a fool to trade Georgiev before next season.</div></div>

If you are worried about putting Georgiev in goal with a horrid defense in front of him, rest assured he has some experience in that department.

Which one of these is not like the other? Kapanen is both an established player and improving. The other guys are prospects at best. And Benning.

Thread: Apparently Toronto is interested

First of all, I don't think Toronto is the team that makes the most sense as a trading partner. They should be looking for a backup, not a young goalie who should be getting a chance to become a starter. So of course they want to pay backup prices. They should go with someone like DeSmith.
Second, what's the deal with Bracco? The Leafs had a ton of injuries and put his AHL coach in charge and he still couldn't even get a cup of coffee in the NHL.

I think that would be good for the Rangers. Not interested in Bjugstad, but if the Pens need it for cap space its ok.

Yeah, their situations line up a bit, but it doesn't work for the Rangers needs. That's why you hear Andersson for Puljujarvi all the time but not Honka.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NYR_Mike</b></div><div>Rangers do not make this trade.. Krys has 4 points in 26 games in the American and plays RHD. We are already so crowded in that position.

The 2nd doesn't move the needle either. Strome nets you a first rounder and a prospect because hes a cheap cap hit, almost a ppg player, and an RFA so the team will have control of him for at least a year.</div></div>

A Blackhawks 2nd isn't that much worse than, say, a Bruins 1st, but the prospect would have to interesting. And probably a forward.
Also the Rangers dont have to move him since he's not a ufa.

Thread: Why rebuilding We could have a decent team next year

As a neutral Ranger fan, it seems to me you do have a lot of good going talent, especially the forward group. Maybe there is a lack of a real star on the NHL roster but perhaps Caufield and whoever they draft in the 1st round this year be able to really stand out. I'm less sure about your defense, but I dont look at the overall situation as being anything like the mess the Rangers are trying to work their way out of.

Thread: Hank and Colorado an all in match

I don't know if goaltending is that big a need that they would spend anything to get Lundquist at this point. Even if he wants to move, which he doesn't seem to.
I still think Kreider would make a lot of sense, probably for a second and either Jost or a pretty good prospect (not Bowen Byram).

Thread: TOR-NYR

Fox is not getting traded. Saying he was acquired for two seconds doesnt matter. Tom Brady was drafted in the 6th round, it doesn't mean the Patriots would have traded him for a fourth round pick when he was in his prime. Not that Fox is Brady, but just to say that's not how it works.
DeAngelo could be available but at a high price.
