Post-Game Talk: Winnipeg Jets at New York Rangers 11/1/14

[LeetchisGod]

I really like the idea of getting Sekera. Would give us a puckmover on each pair when healthy. John Moore isn't the answer. His offense hasn't showed a lick of improvement since he's been here. The question is what would we have to give up.

 

[Roo Returns]

Roster player would have to be moved for Sekera...his cap hit wouldn't fit seamlessly without moving someone.

John Moore and Carolina retaining salary.

 

[NYRFAN218]

Staal and Girardi turned the clock back to 10-11 tonight. Great games from both.

 

[SupersonicMonkey*]

Sekera is a rental, too. Both for any team that trades for him and Carolina if they don't trade him. Why would anyone subject themselves to staying with that club in this division.

Adding Sekera + a center for a playoff push would be big for the Rangers.

Sekera and Vermette with peripherals would be outstanding.

LOve Vermette, dude is a niche player that has been around a long time and fills many needs and isn't over the hill.

Kostka is a majestic creature

Stepan should be back soon. I don't know why you're worrying about Vermette. He's a good player but who is he going to replace?

 

[Mac n Gs]

Sekera and Vermette would be ****ing amazing for this team. Even if it's just one of them, they'd be great adds.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Kostka is a majestic creature

Kostka!!!

 

[Mac n Gs]

Kostka!!!

Needs more flow.

 

[Thirty One]

Kostka!!!

Pretty solid comparable IMO

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Staal had his best game since before his eye injury IMO.

Hayes/St. Louis/Mueller...

Push Muller to 4th line LW.

Let Hayes work on things in the AHL, specifically faceoffs, of which he is brutal.

The St. Louis in the middle experiment ends. He goes back to RW.

Don't care about the cap and other's ice time. I want a Cup. They want to contend, they need the best players they can realistically get for a run at it. The cap and everything else can be worried about in the summer.

Vermette is one hell of a useful player. This team needs options at center ice, and trust me if the rangers added a player like that for a reasonable price, it would help this team immensely.

He makes us very, very strong down the middle, allows MSL to be a wing again, while Moore goes back to centering the 4th line.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

It's too bad that Vermette is no longer on the Blue Jackets because this would be a great opportunity to send them more players.

 

[Problematique]

I can't be the only one ****ing sick of Evander Kane? I swear he's our kryptonite.

I call it every time too. **** me dead.

 

[SupersonicMonkey*]

He makes us very, very strong down the middle, allows MSL to be a wing again, while Moore goes back to centering the 4th line.

I'm envisioning...

Zuccarello - Brassard - Nash
Kreider - Stepan - St. Louis
Hagelin - Vermette - Duclair
Mueller - Moore - Stempniak
Malone

McDonagh - Klein
Staal - Girardi
Sekera - Boyle
Hunwick

Lundqvist
Talbot

That's a better roster than the one that got to the Final.

 

[Infinitum Vitae*]

I believe in our center's when stepan gets back. I would love sekera tho. Could help us on the PP to.

Even when Stepan gets back, who is our 3rd center? Our 4th?

Stepan
Brassard
Mueller/St.Louis/Hayes
Moore

Isn't winning a Cup

Brassard

Moore

Oh the 4 centers are the only thing that determine if you can win a Cup?

 

[LeetchisGod]

It's the main reason that we lost to LA so I'd say it's pretty important.

 

[Charlie Conway]

Move Glass and John Moore somewhere. Problem solved.

You'd have to pay someone to take Glass.

 

[Doctyl]

Kane is to the Jets something like Kreider is to the Rangers.

Except he's been in every trade rumor

 

[Doctyl]

Staal had his best game since before his eye injury IMO.

He was fantastic but this isn't true. Staal did this quite a bit last season and he is, IMO, the reason we beat the penguins.
