We aren't winning the cup, other contenders were much more aggressive than us. So deadline is a fail. But I'm much happier with Roslovic than I would be with Pacioretty or something, Roslovic can skate.

 

[Ruggs225]

This is a move i can get behindZ much better use of a 4th round pick than oh say a 7th dman

 

[Whoot Whoot]

Steal, great pick - has some wheels to keep up with Kreider

 

[Leonardo87]

I like this trade. Got a solid middle six guy and it only cost a 4th.

 

[Flan the incredible]

I like this move and hope he gels with Zibs and Kreids.

 

[Rempe73]

This is a no-brainer and a W.

Good deadline. I like the idea of trading for these middle 6 guys who won’t upset the chemistry of the team. We saw last year that star power didn’t work out.

I did want Guentzel but Laf, Fox, Miller, Kakko, Perreault, and Othmann (and REMPE) are young enough that we still have another decent window after this one. Perreault’s development changed everything (and Laf too). If they didn’t develop so well, we would have went all in I think.

He can scoot and he competes, which would be nice add if he plays up with Mika.

Could be an under the radar add (ala Vatrano originally), but he only moves the needle because he deepens the lines.

Honestly id rather him than Pacioretty on this team so it could be worse.

Also sends Vesey and Brodz to the 4th with the option of Edstrom, so it would be easier to roll

 

[DanielBrassard]

This is better than Pacioretty, plays RW, skates extremely well, more of a disher than a shooter. Might as well lean into Zibanejad and Kreider being a rush line.

*4th round pick years from now.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Jack is not Crosby but Drury really was somewhat handcuffed unless he wanted to overpay. I think he did well.

 

[pld459666]

His versatility to play C & RW I think is huge

Hes prone to turnovers so maybe keeping him limited to wing won't bits us in the ass to much.

 

[GG96]

I like this move. I wanted Buch and no one else. Thank god they didn’t overpay for Guentzel

 

[Trxjw]

Solid add. Can play C in a pinch and does well off the rush, I believe.

 

[TheDirtyH]

adding a full time player for basically nothing gets my approval

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Looks like a good move but I really wish the Rangers were more aggressive. And by aggressive I don't mean injured senior citizens like Kane. Oh well. I'll take two depth trades for only picks.

*4th round pick years from now.

This pick is three years from now and roslovic is much better than ruwhedel.

Hell roslovic might be on our firdt line. Ruwhedel will be in a suit barring injuries.


One is good value. The other is terrible value. I dont care the pick is years from now. It still is a 4th rounder in both instances. And 4 years from now we dont have that pick to trade at a deadline so we will have to devalue another future pick.

 

[E-Train]

Roslovic scored and looked good in the game at Columbus. Like the move

 

[DekeR]

Finally something, I'm not too sure about a 1st liner with Zib and Kreider but proof will be in the pudding going forward.

 

[Peltz]

Okay, this is a trade I can get behind. I'm glad we didn't do anything too stupid this year other than give up 4th rounder for a defensemen who sucks.

I like Drury when he's stingy like this. If we can't score goals 5v5 with this group of forwards, then a flashy name wasn't going to change that. This gives at least gives us options in the top 9. He's not a Powerplay merchant and gets most of his points at even strength.

Let's go.

 

[JimmyG89]

Been asking for him for a while. Adds a dynamic they don't have enough of. He can create and skate.

One thing Zibanejad hasn't been as good at as he was in the past was skating the puck up the ice. Kreider was never that kind of player.

Roslovic gives them a transporter and playmaker to set these two up. He can play C if you really need to, but it's a versatile player that will help PP2 with Wennberg added too.

A PP2 like this is considerably improved

Kakko
Laf Wennberg Roslovic
Gus

 

[LeetchisGod]

Adds much needed speed for very little cost. Can't complain.

 

[CLW]

This is better than Pacioretty, plays RW, skates extremely well, more of a disher than a shooter. Might as well lean into Zibanejad and Kreider being a rush line.

Yeah I'm not a big Roslovic fan but I prefer him to a lot of the names thrown about simply for the fact that he is a good skater.

Splash trades don’t win
