Eklund Rumor: Vegas, Carolina, and NY Rangers all Fighting for O’Reilly

[Godfather]

Just a quick hit here…The Patrick Kane Injury has thrown a huge wrench into the deadline, and suddenly teams are turning to ROR to fill that one spot that puts them over the edge….more to come this afternoon…Including full chart update..


When he get injured? That may throw a wrench into things for the Hawks

Yep despite the claims there will be little market interest in ROR, there's going to be a market for ROR, for what are very obvious reasons.

Is it time to fire up ROR Megathread, again?

TBH we should probably set up megathreads for the big name rentals.

C (O'Reilly)vs W (Kane). Apples to oranges.

 

[Glorydays22]

If this is the case, Rangers will get him. They have the draft capital with having 2 1st rounders this year. They can use 1 of them and give up a spect for ROR

 

[WreckingCrew]

Canes PLEASE PASS!! You have Jordan Staal...you don't need someone slower, more expensive, worse defensively, and who's scoring even less this year. ROR just doesn't move the needle in the positive direction nearly enough to waste our cap space and assets on him

Rangers have no need for a C.

 

[Satoru Gojo]

Eklund? lol

 

[TheDoldrums]

Kane is an offense only winger and ROR is a more defensive minded centre, seems odd that the injury would cause teams to pivot like that

No No No

Bold = Falsehood
Itlicized = Need to keep
Trade vets for youth
Maximize open window with youth
Drury, listen to @bernmeister

The idea of having Zibanejad, Trocheck, Chytil and ROR as your centers is neat but we need a rw more than anything. Jimmy Vesey on the first line isn’t a winning recipe.

There's this superstar player named Mike Hoffman who's not getting a chance to shine with the Habs, you can have him for a 5th and a crisp high five.

We’ll send you back a blue chip prospect who goes by the name of Jake Leschyshyn

On a serious note I do wonder if the Rangers will go for Tarasenko if Kane is too expensive.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

So we know this isn’t happening then

 

[fasterthanlight]

Every time I see the "Eklund" tag I now think: why is our prospect talking about trade rumors

Seravalli: - Tarasenko to NYR what a timing lol

On a serious note I do wonder if the Habs will go for McDavid if Toews is too expensive.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

I don't mind the Canes going for ROR but definitely not paying a high price for him based on what he's doing this year. Really depends on if he's truly cooked or if he's just on autopilot with the Blues.

 

[AslanRH]

So, Ek had the team, just not the player.
Pretty good for him

this ^ also for nyr to pass

I think we will get knies and a 1st from Toronto. Dubas is on the hot seat it'd make it or break it time.

Lol ror is two tiers above Jordan. The fact that you even compared them is laughable.
