Speculation: Roster Building Thread XIII

[TheKing30]

Something about him being 33 but looking 53 just makes Seravalli hit different.

Legit, guy was born in 1988!

Im absolutely shook

 

[McRanger92]

But why tho?

Chytil is better than Coleman.

How did Coleman go from a Machinehead pet project to Wayne Gretzky on here?

Im just spitballing but if they truly are going for Eichel(which seems to be the case), and the cost includes Chytil, replacing him in the top 9 with Coleman is a good option. And theres definitely been some chatter that the are still in on Coleman even after the Goodrow signing

 

[NYR Viper]

Barrie actually is what people think every offensive defenseman is

Agreed. Their defense is going to be, um, not very good defensively.

So some rangers fan doctor writes up a paragraph of misspellings and everyone takes it as gospel?

Fokes, I am a medicol docter and this is why the Rangers shouldnt trade for Eichel:

 

[Kovalev27]

If they couldn’t protect Gourde, how does trading him allow them to protect anyone else they couldn’t protect?

Just read what I wrote. If you get a couple eligible guys back like Blackwell for instance in the deal for gourde you could have kept a palat off the list and gotten assets for gourde

I heard he was cut in half pretty bad

 

[East Coast Bias]

Friedman better watch his back. Seravalli coming in hot as the best insider in the game since Bobby Mac retired.

he quit TSN too. He’s doing it all from like an onlyfans account. True entrepreneur.

Ignoring that only a handful of people have actually seen his medical reports?

Here's another random site that says 80% of athlete's have a full recovery and most hockey players are back within 7 months.

Jack Eichel’s Neck Surgery & Recovery


If the rangers trade for eichel it's because they saw the reports and we're comfortable with it.

wouldn’t that be great

Eichel $10 million
Panarin $11 million
Trouba $8 million
Zibby $10 million
Heiskanen just got $8.45 so Fox gets at least $9 million
Gotta keep Buch for at least $6 million
Kreider is still here for his $6million

So that’s $60 million for 7 players with all the kids on their rookie contracts.

Ahhh, yeah.

No. The only way they could have protected more forwards is to leave a defenseman unprotected. McDonagh or Cernak.

 

[SRHRangers]

Is Coleman's contract going to be better?

Nope and I don't want him either.

I'm still fuming were gonna give a 10 goal player a 6 year deal.

 

[Mac n Gs]

Thats a big return even with an extension in place.

Surprised they're extending Hoffman. I remember hearing that they were looking to move him at some point around the deadline last year and the word was they were not happy with his play. Guess that was wrong.

Wouldn't shut off a buch trade there though as Hoffman plays the LW. They'd look for Buch to replace Tarasenko.

I agree with you, which is why I'm thinking it would only happen with an extension in place. I still think Thomas has a lot of value, and I think a lot of his underlying metrics support that last year was a fluke and not the norm for him going forward. I'd still be gutted to trade Buch, but Thomas is at least one younger piece that I'd be ok moving him for.

Buch would be gone in any scenario where we acquire Eichel

Tampa went 8+1 so they could protect 4 D. They protected Stamkos, Point, Kuch and Cirelli. How do they trade Gourde and protect Palat/Killorn as well?

They can’t. Only way would have been to trade a D and go 7-3-1.

Oh i see, then the cap will be perfect. Only have to sign about seven #1 draft picks, including two lottery picks with approx $16 million left.

See Jane run. The math doesn’t work for an Eichel unless a Zibby, Buch, Kreider and probably a Trouba are gone. Heiskanen’s numbers tell where the market is and look at the Rangers studs.

oh my god but that contract blah blah blah

Why are you so angry all the time?

 

[NYSPORTS]

like i posted earlier, let’s be thankful both expansion teams are out West. Seattle has the makings of Vegas.

 

[TheDirtyH]

R.Thomas and Chytil could easily become a 1a/1b type duo in a couple of seasons, especially with the wingers we have. Thomas is fantastic in transition, a forechecking machine--he's also just a gamer. The bigger the game, the bigger he's played. I don't see him letting a real chance to establish himself as a top line center slip by him.

 

[rangers1314]

 

[RGY]

If we cannot get Coleman, Tanev would be a good alternative

 

[NYSPORTS]

Why are you so angry all the time?

it’s just a post. Why do some try to put a roster together which is fiscally impossible is the better the question

 

[Machinehead]

Why are you so angry all the time?

I'm having a delightful off-season personally

 

[Daves a mess]

Buch is gone folks. Time to eat that sandwich.

 

[Kovalev27]

Oh you’re right they protected 4 dmen that cernak protection is a doozy
