High volume shooter and a powerplay threat. Never hurts to have good offensive depth

Could be a trade looming, could be insurance in case Vesey and Buch struggle early...my guess is the latter, but you never know.

Yeah that's my thought. Not a sure thing that a trade is coming just basedon this move, could be "insurance" in case a prospect isn't ready.

Or...could be to cover for a trade, guess we'll see!

I like the idea of a player with a great shot on the powerplay.

Not sure how I feel about that cutting into Buchnevich/Vesey PP time, though. Now we've got 10 forwards who ought to be on the PP.

either that or the new way of thinking is to sign as many players as possible and let them fight to the literal death in training camp

I hope there's a trade coming, otherwise we might be burying Buch or Vesey.

Trade Nash or Zucc. Would prefer a Nash trade.

Getting Stepan off of it would be a step in the right direction.

Where the hell are all these forwards fitting in the lineup? The top 6 is set in stone, Hayes and Fast will be on the roster somewhere, Glass too. That leaves 3 spots for Grabner, Vesey, Buch, Pirri, Gerbe, Jooris, Lindberg (when healthy), Hrivik, Jensen.

the Rangers will have 19 forwards with good NHL chances this training camp. they have more than enough insurance withougt signing Pirri, Don't buy it

I know it's popular to assume AV will play Glass no matter what, but I don't think it's very likely at this point. The writing is on the wall. For all we know, the Rangers will trade Glass now. His cap hit is 1.45 mil, but he only makes 1 mil in actual salary this year.

Why not? The Rangers now have EIGHTEEN forwards who have either played in the NHL or are high profile prospects who are believed ready to play. Clearly something's gotta give. If they deal any of them, it's a logical chain.

Florida would just make it CLASSIC dominoes, as opposed to regular old dominoes.

Well we're going to have depth this year and if nothing else later on in the year we could trade him for a draft pick.
