Thread: Lanche

Georgiev is a "throw in"?!?!?! Are you serious? He keeps improving and could end up being a starter in this league for a long time.

This trade is absolutely horrible for the Rangers. They get spare parts and questions marks for 3 NHL players.

Thread: Blockbuster trade Nashville New Jersey

I think Hall is going to be looking for Panarin money. As long as he stays healthy and produces like he did 2 seasons ago, he'll probably get it somewhere

The only guys I'd be interested in are their top young guys. Dahlin, Jokiharju, Olofsson, etc., but they're probably untouchable from Buffalo's perspective. I simply wouldn't do a deal with them

The players you sent to Buffalo are better/have more potential than the players you got back. Really bad trade.

Thread: My idea

Your idea = bad idea. This team has been focusing on getting younger and growing with the kids. Instead, you ship off a bunch of talented ones for a declining Getzlaf to maybe make the playoffs this year or next.

Bad... real bad

Thread: (OTT/NYR) - Ebert for Namestnikov

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>rangersandislesfan</b></div><div>Why did we move Namestnikov? His contract is up after the year and because of the contract we got DeAngelo signed to we don't need the cap space right now.</div></div>

Gives us some more flexibility cap wise for this season. Now we can give his roster spot to someone better and more deserving, rather than having to showcase Names, who was brutal so far (and demoted to the 4th line/bench in both games).

Rangers management has set playoffs as the goal for this season. Names was not making this team better.

Thread: (OTT/NYR) - Ebert for Namestnikov

I feel like a lot of the people saying the Sens won this trade haven't watched Names play recently or think of him with the Lightning, with Stamkos and Kucherov as linemates...

Names has been consistently bad for the Rangers ever since they got him. Plugging him into the 2nd line of the Sens might get him a couple more points, but any GM would be a fool to ignore his recent history. If he goes to a contender, he'll be bottom 6 again and produce nothing, while being ok on the defensive side of the puck.

Honestly, I'm surprised the Rangers didn't have to give away an incentive pick to be rid of Names. For that reason alone, the Rangers won this trade.

Thread: Ottawa Senators signed Thomas Chabot (8 Years / $8,000,000 AAV)

Wow, this is the kind of deal you wish your young stars are willing to sign. If he took a bridge deal, he could have become a 10M/year kind of guy for his next contract.

This contract could be a steal in just a couple years.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Brian2016</b></div><div>There's gotta be a trade on the horizon, right? Namestnikov or Smith?</div></div>

Smith will get get sent down to the AHL; as should McKegg. That will give the Rangers another 1.7M or so. They'll have the space to sign DeAngelo, but I do think they should move Namestnikov.

Thread: New York Rangers signed Brendan Lemieux (1 Year / $925,000 AAV)

If the Rangers had more cap space I could've seen him getting 2x1.5M or 3x2-2.5M, but this is pretty much all they could afford as it stands now. Tony D hopefully signs soon too

Thread: New York Islanders signed Joshua Ho-Sang (1 Year / $874,125 AAV)

I have to think another team would be willing to trade a low round pick for him, or maybe another prospect with a need for a change of scenery. The Isles have wasted his talent and Lou has no patience for kids like Ho-Sang

Thread: New Jersey Devils signed Nikita Gusev (2 Years / $4,500,000 AAV)

A team like the Devils can afford this gamble. If he plays well and elevates the team, it could be another incentive for Hall to stay

Thread: Tampa Bay Lightning signed Andrei Vasilevskiy (8 Years / $9,500,000 AAV)

You always need good goaltending, but these types of goalie contracts rarely workout in the 2nd half. The good thing here though is that Vasi is only 25. Most of the top goalies getting these deals were in their very late 20's when they got their contracts

Super cheap contract for a guy that could chip 35+ points in the right situation

Thread: Finishing an Incredible Offseason

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rayjb159</b></div><div>Problem with Lias/Howden/Chytil is that they all need a season of solid minutes at center to see their potential but you can't see what they can really do if they are on the 4th line. Only two of them will get solid 2C/3C minutes which is why I figured you package one with a 2nd for Gusev who could be a scoring machine.

Same mentality with Lindgren as he will be buried on the depth chart unless a few people get hurt. So if losing him clears all of Smith's contract for the next two years, it might be worth it</div></div>

I agree on both points. Not that I would necessarily make the same trade, but if I had to trade 1 of our 3 young centers at this point, it would be Andersson.

As for Lindgren, with Skjei figuring to be here long term and assuming Miller reaches top-4 level, we have 1 spot on the left side undecided. Kids fighting for that job will be Lindgren/Hajek/Rykov/Reunanen/Robertson/etc. I can see Skjei being traded down the line if the kids start to outplay him, but that's still just 2 spots open on LD for all these promising kids. If I had to choose 1 young LD to be included in a trade, it'd be Lindgren.

Thread: Roster wipeout

As ridiculous as this is, I just need to point out all the draft picks you're giving up. 4 picks in rounds 1-3 over the next 3 years is a horrible position to be in for a rebuilding team...

I wouldn't want him. I don't think the Rangers would sign him either. He's a good vet, great leader, but doesn't fit our timeline. I'd rather use the cap space as a trade chip

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Widowmaker</b></div><div>What’s the plan for Kreider? He’s gotta either be extended or traded. Organization seems to indicate they don’t want to go to the trade deadline with him like they did with Hayes, Zuc and Nash.
Extension will probably cost 6.5-7.25m for at least 5 years and won’t start until he’s 29 years old.</div></div>

I think in this situation they re-sign him. They miss out on Panarin and you can't bank on Hall next year. The Rangers will still need some veterans while the kids develop

33 years old, turning 34 in December isn't prime age. The only thing Stastny is prime for is a dip in production
