Player Discussion Tony DeAngelo: Part V

[gravey9]

he's getting over 6 mil on that next deal regardless

Agreed. Which means these next two seasons are crucial for ADA. If he doesn't gain a reputation for being reliable in his own zone (whether thru his own development or due to a new D partner) he will be harder to trade and recoup value. And it could put him in a difficult position when securing his next deal for 6m+. With a flat cap that could last years -- 6m+ for 3rd pairing PPQB is hard to rationalize for most teams in the league. I would think it might doom him to playing for a middling team (like Minnesota has been).

 

[True Blue]

There are certainly people on here who argue Lundkvist is already a lock to be better than Tony, but nah I would prefer to keep the most talented player of the bunch which is Tony AINEC.

There are, but do we really need to bring such people into ANY credible argument or defense?

 

[Dr Quincy]

Love how it's a forgone conclusion that the 24 year old dman who just had the highest scoring season of any Ranger dman since Brian Leetch (in a shortened season to boot), and 4th in scoring among NHL dmen while being 5 years younger than anyone ahead of him; has already lost his spot on the team to player who's never played an NHL game, or even a game on this continent. Never change HF!

Hey to be fair, in 4 years Lundqvist, if things break well, could put up the SECOND most pts for any Ranger dman since Brian Leetch.

 

[Rempe73]

Yep....I mean the whole team was so happy when he would score! Imagine that....everyone liked it!! I remember when people posted how everyone smiled....you don’t see that every day. So special.

Lol

Werenski Trouba
Miller Fox
Lindgren Lundkvist

makes us better than any scenario that involves keeping tony and I love Tony’s game. With u there. But this shouldn’t even be a question. Let’s continue

Werenski?

 

[Shesterkybomb]

Werenkski is miles ahead of Tony, its not close except for one aspect of hockey, there is absolutely no way Columbus would entertain that. Regarding Nils, he doesn't have to replace Tony, the assets recouped plus Nils have to make the team better than it currently is. If Nils doesn't get 1 point and we are a better team because of the trade we can be happy with that.

 

[Ghost of jas]

Werenski?

The question was posed, "would you trade DeAngelo for Werenski?".

 

[DaBadGuy7]

Can’t see Rangers trading TDA to a division rival, but interesting anecdote nonetheless

 

[Leetch3]

trading him to philly would help unite a split fan base and we can all hate him together LOL

Colby Cohen is a good friend of Tony's and his most recent podcast guest in case your weren't aware of this.

 

[patnyrnyg]

I was driving today when I heard Niskanen was retiring. First thing I thought of was them making a push for DeAngelo. If they are willing to overpay with a package, then I don't care that he would be in the division. They only play 4 times a year now anyway.

yeah right

 

[NewLife]

What would be a realistic deal with Philly?

The idea of trading Tony isn't sweet but I get it if a young centre could be had?

Vancouver is also looking for a puck moving RHD.

I doubt we would trade tony for futures but I really like their prospect pool. I rate guys like Hoglander and Rathbone

I see. Hoglander is 5'8. No. Rathbone is 5'11 on d. No. We have enough of those already. TDA could be packaged with a Buchnevich in a deal for a center than is capable of carrying the team with Panarin if Zibanejad went down. Though I still see Buchnevich being deal at the draft to move up.

Hog and Rat, haha. Hoglander is a awesome name.

He scored one of the nastier goals i've ever seen at any level

The balls it takes to do that with a defender actually on you is nuts

Ok and Quinn Hughes is 5’10, your telling me you wouldn’t want Quinn Hughes on this team??

Best goal I’ve ever seen

 

[Rempe73]

So apparently Vegas and Anaheim asked about Tony. Anaheim just signed Shattenkirk, so hopefully they can f*** right off. And I also hope that Vegas signs Pietrangelo, so that they can f*** off as well

 

[will1066]

Not one but two of the sickest moves
