Vatrano always scores again the Penguins.

These deadline deals aren't making it easy to sign them with what cap we have...

That's what I said, meaning if we win, great, if not, we shot some of our wad w/nothing going forward to show for it.
That said and to be clear, Vatrano was the best of these deals. Worth WAY more than a 4th. Some of the depth moves were unnecessary indulgence but whatev. You make those deals when you also ditch Strome and guys like Brendan Smith a year ago, and because of THAT, you have a surplus for this, which is not the case.
Copp will be the most expensive but the best value added after Vatrano but to what avail if we cannot sign. And on top of that, Copp will make it more likely Trouba will stay and be less amenable to being moved.
Moving Jones for a pick, losing McKegg + Hunt will = Vatrano short term $, but that's about it

Probably been the best pickup of any trade deadline pick up.
Good job Rangers who appear to have the the penguins number ...playoffs should be no different

Vatrano fits like a glove on that top line. Burying good feeds on the regular.

Our team speed has improved so much.

Been wanting Pens to get Vatrano for several years to try with Malkin, sucks he's now killing the Pens.

This guy was a steal for only a 4th round pick. Not sure where he sits in the long term plans of the Rangers organization, but the kids has been opening some eyes.
