Speculation: Roster Building Thread Part III: Day by Day

[SA16]

Holden and a 2nd is the new default rip off offer that we're trying to convince other teams is a good deal for their second liners?

 

[ManUtdTobbe]

Sign Da Costa, Tkachyov and a depth forward or two and call it a summer. If C is still weak after 20-40 games start looking for a trade to fix it, could be just a rental.

 

[chosen]

Are we sure there is no theme to these thread titles?

Where are all the trades folks. We need trades. Summer is boring.

I remember some here telling me that they wanted the Finals to end because the off-season is far more exciting.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

All I've been doing is writing memos for the past 2 weeks. I'm losing my mind. Puns is all I have.

Carey on. This off-season can't end Fast enough. Every Day counts. Time is Ronning out

I don't know about you, but I'd trade Hayes or Miller for the equivalent value of Holden and a 2nd rounder.

 

[NYR Viper]

Here's a guy I'd look at if he was available:
Kerby Ruchel
22 years old
Has a bit of NHL experience but not much
Plays with an edge and has some offensive ability

 

[NickyFotiu]

I remember a few of our own posters wanting our own Rangers season to end so they could play GM.

 

[silverfish]

Still a few interesting names out there [not saying for NYR, but in general].

Franson
Jagr
Vanek
Hudler
PAP

Wonder if K. Hayes convinces management to give J. Hayes a tryout. Kind of wish I could go back to last season and watch J. Hayes's game. How the hell did he only shoot 2.74% last year 5v5?

It's kind of impressive how bad he was.

I wouldn't touch any of those guys.

I believe that Franson has a camp invite from Chicago. Someone reported that here a few days ago.

Truly incredible sometimes between the guys who get contracts and the guys who don't.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Kerby Ruchel
22 years old
Has a bit of NHL experience but not much
Plays with an edge and has some offensive ability

And selected with "our" 1st round pick

 

[Raspewtin]

Came a long way from Del Zotto + Boyle.

 

[darko]

Or good old Dubinsky + Sangs + 2nd.

 

[RGY]

Jagr and Vanek interest me.

Jimmy Hayes would be a last resort camp invite. I really do like his game, a little nasty with an edge. Has more of a pulse than his brother. Problem is he is slow like his brother. If we are going to get someone not as quick than id rather it be Jagr

 

[Irishguy42]

Georgiev signing is official

 

[NickyFotiu]

And selected with "our" 1st round pick

Yeah that pick was from the Nash trade. The guy (Buch) we picked with the Blue Jackets 3rd round pick has more career goals.

 

[Stasis]

I want Bozak and Winnik, somehow. I'd say Staal retained but I doubt that happens even if he agrees to it. Holden + maybe. Maybe. Still doubt it. Winnik we could grab, I'd think. And then call-ups.

I'd be much happier heading into the season with a vet C, even if he's better as a 2 or 3 as Leafs fans say. Zib, Bozak, Hayes... Something we can work with and injuries wouldn't kill us. Unless it was to 2 of those 3. Or all 3. Lol. =/

 

[Savant]

Winnik makes sense. It's a concern that the team is neglecting its PK again like it did in 15/16. I'd rather try and get a guy like Filpulla than a guy like Bozak for that reason if Rangers are looking at expiring contract centers.

 

[1Knee1T]

Seems like a lot of guys are hoping Tkachyov impresses in training camp. Did I miss something about him getting an invite to it? Last I read he wasn't going to the prospect development camp but I don't remember seeing anything about training camp.

 

[TheTakedown]

August 15th is still a little while away, NCAA Free agents that can be sign. Options are pretty good this year... Kerfoot, Butcher, few others I am missing

My predictions are:

Kerfoot to Vancouver. Has ties to the region and has already been linked to them
Butcher to New Jersey. It's a hunch, but they could use a good young D-man. We have a pretty deep D-core at the moment

I think Kerfoot definitely ends up in Vancouver.

 

[Kovalev27]

I expect a tanner glass re-signing late league min. Zero doubt in my mind

I'd love to get bozak for Holden and a 2nd surprised Toronto wouldn't want that deal themselves.
