Salary Cap: 2014 - 2015 New York Rangers :: Roster Building / Proposal Thread Part XVI

[GoAwayPanarin]

Winnik to the Pens, so cross him off the list

Bullet dodged

 

[howztheglass]

****... Management has to be working on something... 3 prime trade targets just got picked up in 2 days

Maybe more to the Zucc Rumors --like last year sign before the deadline or else you could be gone.

Not sure how I feel with guys being traded left and right.

Good Sather or Evil Sather??

That is the question.

 

[Alluckks]

Is this where the impatient crowd comes out because they want their team to be involved in the deadline?

News flash, if the Rangers make no moves they are still amongst the favorites to come out of the East.

 

[Tawnos]

Happy to see all these wingers going. The centers are still out there.

 

[Osminator]

Stempniak is a 14th and Glass a 15th forward. Rangers could use a solid 4th liner next to Moore and Fast.

 

[Doctyl]

Tlusty to Winnipeg for a 3rd in 16 and cond 6th.

Rofl that's it? They were insisting on a Tlusty for Staal trade

 

[Doctyl]

Is this where the young teens impatient crowd comes out because they want their team to be involved in the deadline?

No team is flawed!

With that price being paid for Winnik I think we can forget Sekera or Vermette being acquired for a realistic cost.
Outside of those two I don't see any rentals who are clear upgrades to our lineup when fully healthy.
If I am giving up a 2nd round pick, I need someone with term....i.e. Vern Fiddler who has another year at $1.25m and can win faceoffs comes to mind.

True--but we need Hank back...

Crazy overpayment for Winnik. Very happy we weren't a part of that.

Wouldn't say that, outside of the 2nd (next year) what was moved that was of real value?

I'm surprised he returned more than Tlusty tbh. I know hes a good defensive player and penalty killer, but Winnik is a playoff ghost.

 

[Alluckks]

It was more in response to people getting up in arms about Winnik and Tlusty being traded.

You wanted to give up more than Pitts did for Winnick? Where does Tlusty play (or even fit with cap) on this team?

There is no reason for fans to throw a tantrum because they know all the ins and outs of being an NHL GM.

 

[Tawnos]

I thought so too at first. But the Leafs retained half his salary, so it's not that bad.

 

[Doctyl]

Stempniak is a 14th and Glass a 15th forward. Rangers could use a solid 4th liner next to Moore and Fast.

Post is so wrong. Stemp is a good bottom 6 player. Glass is a decent 13th in the AHL

 

[Son of Steinbrenner]

I don't know. Even with the Leafs keeping salary in the deal that's a lot for Winnik. I like the player but I'm glad the Rangers didn't send the equivlant in value EVEN if the Leafs kept half the salary.

It's VERY possible the Rangers do nothing at the deadline

 

[Machinehead]

Best part is Pittsburgh still isn't that good. Winnik will see minutes in their top 6 at some point, I guarantee you

 

[Bleed Ranger Blue]

And Tlusty to the Jets--oh boy the fun is starting early......

Wake up Glen...The fan base wants you to make a move.

I dont.

From Elliotte Friedman's 30 thoughts this week:

One GM said this week he is now planning on a $69M cap — if the players don’t vote for the escalator. Ouch

From the same article RE; Zucc:
But, there are rumours they will consider trading him, see what they can get and, if necessary, flip that for something else.
I can’t prove or disprove those rumblings, but they’re out there

What is more surprising for me and i didn't see discussed here, nhlnumber shows a bonus of 2,8 for Hayes and 0,5 for Miller.

If this is right it would carry over and hit the cap next year.

Well the Rangers wouldn't need to retain salary so they'd have no reason to up their offer.

 

[Machinehead]

Please don't bring up the age of other posters as an insult. Thanks.

 

[Ola]

Cole has 18 goals this year. 18. He'd be tied for 2nd on the Rangers with that.

Skille wouldn't come here to be a third liner, he'd be a 12/13.

Let's say we can get Cole for a 2nd round pick, and Skille for a B-level prospect. Waive Stempniak (unfortunately) or trade him for a low level pick.

Kreider - Stepan - MSL
Nash - Brass - Zucc
Hagelin - Hayes - Cole
Skille - Moore - Fast
Miller

I like that team a lot more than our current team.

I don't at all, we have to agree to disagree.

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

I hope we trade for jagr.

Nash-Brass-Zucc
MSL-Step-Kreider
Hags-Hayes-Jagr
Miller-Moore-Fast
Stemp

And J.Moore for the sixth Dman please!

 

[silverfish]

Well, why not? We can disagree, but it never hurts to have a discussion about it! This is a message board, after all

 

[rangers1314]

I don't at all, we have to agree to disagree.

Jack Skille is out for the year, shoulder injury. Just announced.

 

[Alluckks]

I hope we trade for jagr.

Nash-Brass-Zucc
MSL-Step-Kreider
Hags-Hayes-Jagr
Miller-Moore-Fast
Stemp

And J.Moore for the sixth Dman please!

You want to put Jagr on a line with Hagelin?.......
