Waived: [NYR] Tony DeAngelo (Mod: No politics)

[Ryan52]

What is this sorcery?

50 point D for free? Who has cap space?

im guessing he goes to kings or red wings, whoever has first choice

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Calgary would have never traded Lindholm for DeAngelo.

 

[Rec T]

Well this is interesting...

 

[admiralcadillac]

guy sounds like a bit of a dil

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Here to El Oh El at the ridiculousness some Ranger fans were wanting for this worthless excuse of a human.

Would be funny if he passes, but I'm sure someone will take his dumb ass.

 

[BonMorrison]

Columbus gonna be all over this because reasons

 

[bov]

Not surprised at all, It's only a matter of time with someone like that. The kind of player I just wouldn't want on my team regardless of talent or cap hit.

 

[Profet]

im guessing he goes to kings or red wings, whoever has first choice

Him getting paired with Staal again would be the pièce de résistance.

 

[JoemAvs]

Not gonna lie I chuckled a bit. Yeah some people are going to have to eat massive crow on that one...

Looks like GMs finally are catching on that offensive Ds that have trouble defending are not something you want to really spend on when capspace is crucial. Especially if they come with a lot of other baggage...

Don't really think anyone will pick him up. The 4 teams with enough capspace seem like bad fits to me. Aside from maybe the Kings not strong enough lockerrooms to take a shot on DeAngelo IMO and even they have a ton of youth and LA doesn't seem like a good fit anyways for him..

 

[Captain Mountain]

Wow? This can't be Tony "can get a top 6 C in a trade" DeAngelo, right?

 

[LeafGrief]

lmao

 

[Duck Off]

4.8 million this year and next right? Arbitration eligible RFA? He’ll get claimed

 

[The Macho King]

Yzerman already traded him once for off the ice issues. Doubt he goes back to that well.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Wow, I have no clue why the Rangers are waiving him. You would have thought that someone would have given up something for him. Even with his flaws, the dude can produce from the blue line. He's 100% getting claimed by Detroit or Ottawa, I'd be shocked if he made it beyond them.

 

[InfinityIggy]

So the Rangers have Deactivated him. You hate to see it.

 

[Darkauron]

Oh no

Anyway.

 

[AveryStar4Eva]

This is amazing

 

[NJ DevLolz]

DeAngelo just needs to work harder to get a job

 

[OscarsCards]

Lol!!! What a dump!! What's the catch? Yea I read he's an ahole but there has to be more.

Man he could land almost anywhere and then dumped again or traded for a signed McDavid puck.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

DeAngelo just needs to work harder to get a job

lololololololololol

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

So they waived a guy who absolutely would have broken 60 points last year if not for the pause.

This seems straight up stupid unless he did something REALLY bad

His flaws involve him being a bad person though

Yeah his on ice play is definitely not why the decision was made

 

[theslatcher]

Remember Rangers fans calling him decent defensively? I 'member.

 

[Heldig]

The Coyotes at least got a 2nd for Stepan*. It would be funny if the Coyotes picked him up. They need a RHS D, a PP guy, AND some youth on D. They won't claim him though - especially after the Mitchell Miller fiasco (and no I am not equating them as humans).


**Yes, that is a dig for the many, many comments laughing at the Coyotes for trading DeAngelo and a 1st for Stepan and Raanta.

 

[JetsWillFly4Ever]

When you’re a piece of shit human being you better be one of the best players in the league or you become more harm than you’re worth.

I have no interest in claiming this guy if I’m a GM
