Speculation: Roster Building Thread DCLXXXII: Draft Day in Chicago - My Kinda Town?

[HatTrick Swayze]

And that is the best we could get??? While including Raanta?

Gorton sucks

He's proven to be questionable at best with trades

 

[RangerBoy]

The Rangers picked a direction. Jeff Gorton traded the Rangers top center for futures. The main future will not play in the NHL this season. The player may play in 2018-19 but he won't play this coming season. The Rangers are a much weaker team than they were before noon today. Trade more players between now and July 2.

 

[NYR Viper]

Wouldn't be a bad option. Don't have much I'd be willing to give up.

I'm not sure he would cost that much. 40 points this year. Relatively expensive contract. Does Gorton and his team think he can take the next step and be that 55-60 point center?

 

[RGY]

Idk how anyone can sit there and say 'yeah fair deal' when it comes out that Chayka was begging for Stepan for a year. And we included Raanta. Thats pathetic.

 

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Interesting to see so many of you against Shattenkirk, especially now that they've dumped G and have freed up a boatload of cap space.

Provided the AAV is below $6.5MM, I'm totally on board with signing him, preferably for less than full term, but I'd even do that if push came to shove.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

Time to draft our future 1C!!

dont **** up the offseason and waste money on shattenkirk or oshie

 

[RGY]

Im for Shatty at the right price.

I'd rather give DeAngelo the PP time and Shattenkirk is a liability defensively. His role is served in my mind....

Love his offensive game but he can't defend.

Are the Rangers winning with Shattenkirk on this team?

What's the point?

He'd look good behind Zibs.

Offseason just started. Not labeling this team yet.

 

[Avery16]

Please god no

We need 2 Ds and a C.

Oshie is none of those things. He's gonna sign in Chicago.

**** that

Just let it soak in

Be realistic. Come on.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

lol one of stepans "highlights" on NHL Network right now was his shooting softly into Anderson's glove

I'm with you on the direction but are they really gonna blow it up or still try to retool and contend? If McD and Zucc are staying, Shatty would fill a huge hole at #1 RD.

 

[Traderalways]

Be realistic. Come on.

Ok... so.... what do you want to do with HENRIK?

Might as well as just not spend our cap and become a budget team and tank all the way then.

Bugging Gorton about Stepan doesn't mean he was willing to pay through the nose for him.

 

[RangerBoy]

Are the Rangers comfortable giving a 30 year old Ryan McDonagh a 7 year contract in two years time?

 

[Ola]

I am not sure if there is much to gain in trading up from 7. I like Mittlestad a lot, Suzuki is very exciting. Pettersson is so slick and cool, could become a really special player but OTOH I think he is a little harder to read. I think Erik Brannstrom could become a super exciting player, biggest downside is that he is a LD. Tim Liljegren might become a very good RD.

Just saying, there will be a very good player available at 7.

 

[duhmetreE]

What does Montreal want for Galchenyuk?

McDonagh for MacKinnon.

#7 overall for Trouba

Edit: or McDonagh and 21 for MacKinnon and #4
