Cuylle Brodz Vesey
Wheeler is a top 6 RW. The team needed a top 6RW. If he works out then it’s a great value. If he doesn’t, he can be waived. Low risk / high reward at a position of need. How can you possibly complain about this?
He just turned 30 and can do whatever Bonino can do but can skate.
If he's a top or 2ed line player in Hartford. He should be given that same ice time in NYR, no wonder why he does nothing when he's on the 4 th line
he's an NHL scrub AHL All-star for a reason. He sucks
This is a pretty poor take. Brodz is pretty much exactly what you'd want in a 4th line player. I'm not really sure what the deal is with the Rangers, but they tend to prefer plodding oafs to actual guys who can skate, play solid D, are good at faceoffs and chip in the occasional goal now and then.If he's a top or 2ed line player in Hartford.

i rather get Edstrom, Trivigno, Cuylle, Rempe, or some other younger player a chance over an AHL vet.
this is wrong.If he's a top or 2ed line player in Hartford. He should be given that same ice time in NYR, no wonder why he does nothing when he's on the 4 th line
all those guys suck.
all those guys suck.
name me someone in the NHL, that's your prototype 4th liner. McLeod was probably the best available and he cost $1.4M
What are we giving up to get him? If we could spend $1.5-2M on a 4th liner, we would have signed McLeod.
Rempe was literally benched in the Wolfpack's playoff run. He is not even close to NHL quality right now and very likely may never be. I really don't have any clue what you're talking about. The Rangers are not a development team and Brodz is very clearly an NHL player. I don't even understand the comparison to JAM, he is a consistent 30 goal producer. Obviously if that's the production you're expecting from our 4th line you're going to be insanely disappointed.He is a 30 year old that only played 101 NHL games, Kings and Sharks already gave up on him. No he is not the next late bloomer like JAM or some other older NHL rookie. Rangers need to stop prioritizing AHL players and forcing them into the lineup on the 4th line. I miss the days when Rangers would draft for these types Dom Moore or trade for younger 4th line players with not much NHL experience but a young Brian Boyle or younger Brandon Prust, not some 30 year old AHL vet that Rangers are rewarding him for not giving up his dream of being an everyday NHL player
AHL player at best. Let him give leadership to the prospects on how to act when they are 30 with only 101 NHL games under his career.
Maybe but I doubt it, league is overflowing with marginal forwards
It went seven games. I think it's fair to say they didn't start the series over matched and they weren't over matched in their third win. The real thing that sticks in craws is that they just didn't seem to show up ready in game 7. A 7 game series is the opposite of a blowout series, which is what you get when one team is overmatched. We can make plenty of excuses, but the fact is they didn't do what they needed to to win... The Devils were a good team. Yep better than us as it turns out. But certainly not a dominant team. We didn't fight hard enough in that game 7. Losing, but making a game of it, which they were obviously CAPABLE of doing, having won three games, wouldn't have left such a bad taste in our mouths. I'm not suggesting they didn't care, but they didn't care ENOUGH. It's not black or white, on or off.
