Roster Building Thread - Part II: Entry Draft Edition

[GoAwayPanarin]

Dreger on Insider Trading saying "for the right fit and an opportunity to win" Malkin would consider a shorter term contract.

Nooooo.

 

[UnSandvich]

If the right fit is "With the NY Rangers, for under 2m", then sure. Otherwise, f*** outta here

 

[CLW]

The coach he hired also did a pretty damn good job getting this team to sack up and play to their talent level I’d say

I dunno. 5v5 was rather weak. Better coaching/system is one easy way for a major step up in performance. Gallant's forte is creating a good room vibe and fighting spirit.

 

[Thirty One]

Nooooo.

Yes, he did say that.

EUGENE COME HOME

Seriously though gotta think the Rangers would be high on that list.

$2MM + incentives?

 

[Beer League Sniper]

I’d take Malkin on a 2 year deal at $5M, and I hate the friggin dude.

That said, I still believe he goes back to Pitt. And I believe we’re better off shopping the bargain bin for the time being.

 

[Daves a mess]

Look, I'm not even here trying to defend Kakko for why he should be kept by the Rangers. If Kravtsov actually hits, he's (Kakko) pretty much expandable in this cap situation. My point is why trade him when his value is basically nill and you will get nothing in return but cap space? If you think Winnipeg is trading PLD for Kakko and some pick, bad news for you. I also doubt the strength in the wings is as strong as you suppose but whatever.

Now, if Drury is going after Kadri for 7 years at 8m then I guess you can trade Kakko for just capspace...

All depends on how you look at it regarding Kaapo. If you go with he improves next season and stays healthy enough to make an impact, then you keep.him. But....
If he regresses, then you have what was a valuable asset, now relegated to the garbage heap. Def of depreciation where you hold on one year too long.

Personally, I'm on the fence with this fella. But I'd take him over the Ed Jovos girlfriend with the mood swings and the EZ Pass paid for in rubles sitting in his hockey bag.

Didn’t he turn down 3-4 years $6M from the Pens?

LFG

He knows the Pens aint winning. Malkin is well aware of the Kravtsov memes, and he's a believer himself.

Our lord and savior has arrived

Karlsson @50% is an under the radar Drury move.

What a beautiful man, could give Krav a run for his money. Peak male specimen right there

 

[DanielBrassard]

2 years at 6.5-7M for Eugene, then get Patty Kane with double retention and we are in business.

Malkin wished he was on the other side partying with Panarin and Igor after that game 7 OT winner. Now he’s envisioning a Panarin-Malkin-Kravtsov all Ruski line dominating to a Cup win.

 

[Payote75]

Am I the only one that thinks our 2nd line would be pretty damn slow with Panarin and Malkin. Please find a different solution I don't want that mug on our team.

Then go and trade for Karlson @50 to play alongside schnieder and were set ha

I saw this earlier too.

It's personal for him. He feels slighted. Come back and stick it to the Penguins brass.

Slow is amazing sometimes. That’s what my wife tells me.

It's ok, Kravtsov will be there to work for 3 covering the big guys lazy butts.

Good luck trying to stop the skill set on those two. It will be a slightly lesser version of having Crosby and Malkin out there at the same time.

What better way to punish your former team that stabbed you in the back then to come to the Rangers and embarrass them.

3 YEAR COMPARISONS FOR POTENTIAL 2Cs

Since I've been preaching 2way Centers, or in this day and age, xGA/60.... Stastny, Trocheck, Gourde and Karlsson are my options.

Columbus can offer more money. Florida is closer to home. Only one team can offer a photoshoot with Jacob Trouba that will cause the city of Pittsburgh to disintegrate into the earth.
