Nice.

 

[Loff]

lol. Robbery.

 

[cheech70]

wow...shows the lack of quality goalies...see you in finals....recouped all draft picks but Copp

 

[WetcoastOrca]

So essentially a couple of fourth rounders and a sixth?
Meh.

 

[Kupo]

Good ducking riddance.

 

[NYR Viper]

It also gives Colorado a better cost certainty in goal. Kuemper probably was looking at $5-6m. Colorado now has more space to improve their roster

 

[Anthony5967]

Three picks for Georgiev. Wow. Good trade.

 

[Ruggs225]

This draft just got more exciting lol

 

[LokiDog]

Great return for what we expected. Two 3rds and a 5th? That said, it signals that teams think Georgie has some upside as a starter so it could end up looking like a steal the other way. Colorado has Francouz at 2M signed and Geo won’t likely cost less than 1.75M so unless Colorado plans to have 9-10M in net and three goalies (which Geo will throw a shit fit over) it looks like he’s going to get a shot to start on the defending champs.

Bring back ADA!

Does Sakic owe Drury money from their playing days? They were teammates in Colorado. Did Sakic lose money playing cards and the juice has been on for over 20 years?

 

[djzbad]

Steal lol no takebacks

 

[JimmyG89]

At worst, the Rangers turned an undrafted free agent signing into three dart throws the board. Beautiful asset management.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

This is a much bigger return than I was expecting.

 

[Savant]

You take that deal all day for a guy that wasn’t getting qualified. Surprised they got that much.

 

[ViD]

Are the Rangers going to sign another backup or who will perform in that role ?

 

[Shesterkybomb]

He's finally gonna get a chance at atleast getting enough games in to prove himself. Good luck to him, i think he steals the starters job there personally. I think Drury did alright with this trade as well.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Hahahha, thanks Avs! f*** you Geo, dont let the door hit your ass on the way out.

 

[Vitto79]

this is a big win I would of dealt him for the 5th lol

Meh.

What'd you reasonably expect? Three picks is a great return for a RFA goalie who doesn't want to be here and proved to be an unreliable backup.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Bring back ADA!

Why? He was probably one of the biggest reasons we lost to Carolina in the bubble and then one of the biggest reasons we beat Carolina in the playoffs this year....good riddance

 

[nyr2k2]

Meh.

He's an RFA with a QO that's twice what he's actually worth who wanted out. I was expecting like a fifth, and no more. Getting two thirds, even if they're at the end of the round? That's a really solid return, IMO.

 

[Kupo]

Are the Rangers going to sign another backup or who will perform in that role ?

I’m no expert, but I’m willing to assume they do in fact sign a backup, unless they plan on having Igor start every single game.
