Thread: brainstorming not super accurate numbers read desc

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CMcAvoy73</b></div><div>Vancouver matches within 5 minutes. If you want to be serious about actually getting the player, 5x11 is the absolute minimum you’ll have to offer.

Also, you letting zibanejad walk after this season? I don’t see a way to keep fox and zibanejad, while adding a high price center.</div></div>

I wasn't super set on the numbers, this was more of a general case where the Rangers pursue any big contract center (similar to Eichel), but, to your point, I think that getting a big contract center would not end well because of the ELCs that will need raises (read description please). but yes, I do hope Zibanejad stays, even if that means missing out on a superstar center.

Thread: Kraken build contender with UFAs

not sure if the rangers pay a draft pick to drop DeAngelo, I think the buyout is pretty cheap. but if the Kraken want him, they should take him. give him decent minutes and a fresh start and I'm sure he will produce.

Thread: What the offseason looks like now for Ottawa

is Sanderson expected to crack the lineup next year? I don't follow the Sens close enough to know, but they've got a hell of a prospect pool

Thread: Eichel price cannot be this

Devils should probably keep their picks for the next few years, but that's just my personal opinion. As far as trade value, Sabres probably accept? If you're the Devils, don't you think Hischier and Hughes satisfy your 1 + 2 C needs for the future? Unless you want one of them on the wing, but why bother? Probably better off looking for goal scorers to develop. But again, that's just my personal opinion.

Thread: does strome deserve to stay long term or get traded high

based on his performance, I would say he ~deserves~ to stay long term. but hockey is a business, so we will probably see him as buy low, sell high. jeff gorton is a mastermind so regardless of what he does I am confident it will work out

Thread: THROWBACK Old Hot Take from THN

both teams kinda benefit; letting the blackhawks try to extend their dynasty. but, from the oilers side, I'm assuming that taylor hall would not have been traded for adam larsson in 2016 then, giving the oilers a pretty solid roster.

Thread: What Would Your Team Offer for Brendan Lemieux

realistically, I don't see Lemeiux having more value to Seattle than Rooney (good defensively, wins faceoffs) or Blackwell (reminds me a lot of Jesper Fast, but with more offense this year in particular). I like all three of them and would be content to keep all three, but Seattle will have their choice, unless I'm missing something with the exposure requirements...?

Thread: Tonight Lineup

although this lineup had success in DC (except jumbled D-pairs), I would expect them to use the same lineup that scored them 9 goals last game. ironically they'll probably end up getting shut out or something. but rangers are 2-0 against the caps this year...

As much as I'd love to agree with you, he's right. Hischier is definitely the better player (as of right now). Those numbers speak for themselves and Chytil's defense is not where it needs to be. Hughes offensive talent is probably ahead of Chytil right now too. Still expect great things from all three (seeing as they are 22, 21, and 19)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ragsandbluesfan</b></div><div>Strome is 100% gone after his 2 years are up</div></div>

maybe, but we'll be paying whoever replaces him, or if Chytil moves up to 2C, then pay a replacement for him at 3C

Thread: Probably Best to Hold Off on Eichel

next year they are dropping a lot of cap from Smith, Johnson, and buyouts, but they will also need to be conservative since they will have Chytil, Lindgren, Shesterkin, Buchnevich, Fox, Kakko, Zibanejad, and Strome to resign within the next 2 years

Thread: Trade Eichel Build around Reinhart and Coz

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sabres_Insider</b></div><div>jeff is one of the best and smartest GM's i dont see him making this trade</div></div>

I'm sure he is taking calls/hearing offers from Buffalo (as any GM should), but probably hangs up the phone quickly when hearing Lafreniere or Kakko (as he should). He can offer some high end prospects (Kravtsov, Lundkvist, Schneider, etc.), but Buffalo probably hangs up the phone when it doesn't start with Kakko, Lafreniere, or Chytil (as they should). If neither of them are willing to compromise, Eichel probably just goes somewhere else (if he moves at all)

Thread: Trade Eichel Build around Reinhart and Coz

Rangers politely decline. If they were much closer to being contenders I could see them considering it, but as it stands now they are not in a "win now" mindset. Much better off taking their time and fully realizing the rebuild. Honestly my personal belief is Jeff Gorton (GM) will not make the trade if Kakko/Lafreniere is involved. If he loses out on Eichel because of that, so be it. I think he is content to continue on the current path.

Thread: every ACGM trade with Eichel

I don't think the trade happens until the summer anyways. My personal belief is that Gorton wouldn't part with Laf and Kakko yet. I think Gorton is content to not make the trade if Buffalo isn't satisfied with what he has to offer
