lollllllllllllll you guys hoesd the rangers. thanks!
He will probably trade J.T. Miller in the offseason to get a first round pick back lolListed similar package for McD weeks ago and people were crying about "too much futures", Yzerman dealt exactly what he should've done. As long as we kept one of Foote/Hajek and one of Raddysh/Howden we we're golden in any proposal, Serg and Point we're clearly off the table as it defeats the purpose of bolstering the lineup before the playoffs. We gave up some solid potential but left ourselves with a cushion to fall back on.
Where's Todd saying Yzerman doesn't do these types of deals cause he doesn't deal away futures? Can't believe people were dumb enough to think he'd be stuck in one M.O, he moves and adjusts per the situation of the team not stuck in one concrete methodology. This year is as good as any we'll ever have to make a move.
Tampa has a great prospect pool.It's more about what we didn't have to give up than what we actually gave up. None of this hurts too much, given our organizational depth.
I do think Miller is an upgrade on Namestnikov. I know they're close in points, but Namestnikov's not gonna put up those kinds of numbers without 91/86.
Totally agreeEveryone saying the Rag's got fleeced, it's a solid trade for the Rags, there are a ton of people who are uneducated on our prospects just looking to harp on them. Value was definitely steep even if it didn't involve a big name, we gave up 2 first round selections, a first round pick, a 2nd that can be turned into a first and a 2nd round prospect who's developed extremely well into at least a 1st round caliber player.
For most teams that's a ton of value, it just looks bad because the Lighting have such a deep pool it doesn't seem like they took much of a hit. And may look worse because he was traded as a 2 year rental while I believe we'll have an extremely good chance at re-signing him.
This summer, imho, it's not sure that Yzergold will rediscuss JT Miller contract.He will probably trade J.T. Miller in the offseason to get a first round pick back lol
I'm very excited about this trade
Btw, JT Miller is a RFA and he earns 2.7 millions...I'm curious to see what'll happen this summer.
Also McDonagh: his contract will expired in the next 2 years, with Kucherov also, and McD will be UFA.
I'm curious to see the way Yzergold will solve this situation
And so, in your opinion, there'll be also the money to rediscuss Kucherov contract?With the blue line - Coburn (3.7 cap hit), Stralman (4.5), and Girardi (3) all hit UFA the same time as McDonagh (4.7), so there's plenty of money to keep McDonagh & Stralman to reasonable deals while letting go of an aging Coburn and Girardi. And ideally by 2019-20, serge will have grown and developed into a larger role.
Are rangers fans mad that was a fantastic deal by yzerman
So... off the top of my head...
McDonagh
Miller
Girardi
Stralman
Callahan
And is that the Rangers last three captains?
No I didn’t want sergachev going there I’m fine with the trade in what we gave upLol Todd you didn't even want this deal to happen, at least stick to your guns bud.
Probably not, but we shall see.All in all you guys think J.T. Miller is a better fit then vladdy ?
