Speculation: NYR Roster Building Thread Part XXXVI (Tis the season of trades) ‎

[Igor Shestyorkin]

In the summer,I would trade Kreider to Dallas for Nichushkin and Honka. Try to squeeze a #1 or another young player out of Dallas.

I really don't see why Dallas does that, or why they need more wingers.

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

ok, so Staal has a minor injury. Hopefully Skjei can steal his spot permanently...

Clearly they are just saying that because the real reason they are keeping Staal out is because they are on the verge of a trade and don't want him to get hurt.

I don't know how to do a sarcastic emoji on the mobile version of this site.

highly doubt it.

Staal, Fast and (Moore/Stalberg) to Carolina for Versteeg, Nash and (Wisniewski/Liles/Hainsey)

Not sexy, but Very fair deal for both teams.

Nash is just one of those players that we would never acquire simply because making the jerseys for both Nash's would be a pain in the a**, it would go to the 3rd letter of the first name lol. Ric. Nash and Ril. Nash. No shot we'll ever see that happen.

Forget a sarcasm emojii, we need a prayer emojii for that one.

I'm annoyed that a month and a half of a mostly garbage season is more than enough to declare the team are back. Sigh.

Couldn't the exact opposite be said as well... A bad 30 games erases 3 seasons worth of evidence?

It doesn't necessarily work the other way around... If you're generally poor at something and you have a stretch of good, it's tougher to believe...

If you're generally good at something and you gave a stretch of bad, there's a lot more behind the sense that you were actually good and it wasn't a fluke.

This goes for anything not just hockey.

 

[DanielBrassard]

Yandle for Nuke and a pick, 2nd for JML or Medvedev.

Oh yeah big time. Kreider doesn't strike me as a player whose hearts really into hockey. Like it's just a really good job for him.

I'll take DAL's pieces in a heartbeat. I like Ritchie from them too.

 

[EpicDing]

Maybe they're showcasing Skjei to trade for a young RH PMD around the same age? Honka? Maybe they really like what the see with Graves?

 

[rangers1314]

Caps just got Mike Weber from Buffalo for a 3rd

 

[Made Dan]

Would be interested in both Versteeg and Khokhlachev. Wouldn't surprise me if we were to trade for Fleischmann and call it a day.

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

Mike Weber for a 3rd. He was a healthy scratch last week. On the Sabers. I'm this market Yandle would get 2 firsts +.

 

[haohmaru]

Ladd would be my #1 target if I were the Rangers. Going to cost though.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

It's likely that they're just resting Staal but if anything, this screams more of showcasing yandle+giving skjei a chance to show whether or not he can handle a 3rd pair role.

Yandle is going to be on the ice for like half of the game.

 

[Vitto79]

A 3rd for a bottom pairing D . Sellers market again

Dallas is THE team. The Rangers planted their flag at the Texas Stars games. Honka. Dickinson.

What could have been

That would be a wonderful return. Even if you have to add.

 

[Griffinbw]

Ladd would be my #1 target if I were the Rangers. Going to cost though.

Playoff Ladd is completely different from regular season Ladd.

 

[Griffinbw]

Anybody know who's in the stands tonight?

 

[wafflepadsave]

After speaking with some NHL execs, Custance wrote Gorton would move Yandle for "the right price". Maybe his price is really nice and he wants the Russian kid in Dallas as part of the deal. That player could help the Rangers win beyond this season.

We can all watch Saturday when they play Dallas. Everyone can post their opinions

 

[BarbaraAlphanse]

Stan Bowman is in attendance for the Jets game. Ladd was traded by the Hawks about 5 years ago. He's familiar with the team and coach. Last year Bowman traded for Vermette, and Vermette was a big part of that Cup Finals series.

The dominoes should fall after that, if this is the first move, which it should be since it seems like a perfect fit for both parties.

 

[wafflepadsave]

Goligoski is a pending UFA. They may opt to let him walk and re-sign Yandle. Or maybe Goligoski would be part of the deal.

I'd be thrilled though if they wanted Staal and Staal agreed to waive his NMC to go there, depending on what we're getting back, of course.

It doesn't matter what we get back to lose that contract!

 

[Igor Shestyorkin]

oops.

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

The only non-Sather player on the roster is Viktor Stalberg. Gorton has had a very easy 6 months and has not made even a dent of a mark on this team.
