GDT: 2020 NHL Entry Draft

[Oscar Lindberg]

Not by any legit reporters I follow...?

All the best info comes from the non-legit ones

Look I know by now that our fan base will never be 100% happy . I mean even winning the lottery and picking up a real good defenseman some are still not satisfied because we didn’t go with a skilled but seriously injury prone player who many Teams passed on

Are you also saying that we shouldn’t have drafted Lafreniere? There seems to be an elite LWer every FA too. Hall this year, Panarin last year, and etc.

Are you trying to compare Lafreniere to Schneider?

Just a reminder the rangers had ONE ONE TOTAL right shot dman nhl worthy prospect In the whole system before making that pick. One of the two toughest positions to find. They had ONE right shot prospect with legit nhl upside.

I'll go on record in front of this board, and my lord the Flying Spaghetti Monster and say that if Schneider gets to a point where he forces us to have to make a roster move (either him or someone else), I will take that outcome every day of the week and RUN WITH IT.

That is a f***ing awesome outcome for the Rangers. I have zero concerns about that outcome being a reality.

I welcome it.

It can stay in my house in the guest room.

I will cook breakfast for it, drive it to the airport, and see it off on its glorious journey to a shiny, warm destination.

Bring me that outcome.

I personally think that will be the outcome, and sooner rather than later. Just worrisome to see the organizational holes not being filled. Hope we see some answers soon. I think that's the real anxiety for me. Would love to see some other positions closer to resolution, then this pick will probably rest nicely with me.

You are now on Hunter Skinner’s list...

Some common sense. I love it.

Lol that’s the closest we’ve got and that’s a long shot

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

(Fire what it’s worth, I actually think Skinner has a *decent* shot of making it as a button four D.)

 

[egelband]

@Edge i know you mentioned dead silence on the Strome situation. Do you get the feeling that Ottawa knows our fear of arb with him and doesnt want to give up assets because of that? They can sign him as a UFA if we let him walk.

I think Gorton’s pitch is, ‘can they?’ If not, trading for his rights makes sense.

 

[Kovalev27]

Not to mention what does everyone ask for when you go shopping for their star players?

A right shot d prospect or player is usually on that list.

Two things to say about the Schneider pick:

1 - We need to build a team. Not just collect skill. I know we need a middle six C. But that's a lot easier to find than a very mobile, big, shut down defender with a mean streak and a decent first pass who is likely going to turn pro in 8 months.

2 - I'm old enough to remember a bunch of people balking on here about getting two D in the back half of the 2018...

 

[Mikos87]

When's the contract getting docusigned over?

 

[Nickmo82]

They couldn't have set that down on a table?
