Jan Levine: Game 49: NYR-ANA, Could next two games seal deal as to team’s direction? First half of road trip likely couldn’t have gone much worse

If the Rangers get a second 1st round pick this, year I'd be for it. He's a d-man and he's right handed.

Plus the WHL is widely reviewed as most pro ready CHL league.

There's a good amount of talent that if we can get 1 or 2 more 1st's in ucoming draft we can really put a dent in the rebuild, I like Wahlstrom(lottery pick) Lundstrom, Bokk, Thomas, Kaut

There's no reason to wait for the next 2 games, they should have made the decision already

They may have already but it takes a partner to make a trade. No one really starts the ball rolling this early. I've defended Gorton to this point but if he doesn't see this is a flawed team that needs to be remade then I'm done with him. If he sees the writing on the wall then I'll feel comforted having the right guy in charge.

Trade up and grab Takchuk. Will likely go in the top 5 and I’ve seen him as high as 2 but would love one of those a-holes on the team.

Possibility to trade up is there if we have the picks, also Mac doesn't have to go at the deadline but I think the return will be greater if he is rather than heading into a walk year

AV and Forrest. More in common than what's good for us...

I can't believe AV's comments. No way he can believe the crap coming out of his own mouth at this point in the season.

The effort has been there. In Col. and LA. NYR just can't put puck in net. PK will work itself out, but fact is there isn't enough talent.

"Playing the right way" will help, but the fact that we don't have enough consistent scorers is the problem.

I would maximize the return and trade him this year before the deadline.

Not good news for those of us hoping the Rangers sell at the deadline... Dolan is going to be needing extra cash to keep the ex happy. Rangers are buyers!!!

Fact is, ALL teams this year are having more difficulty clearing the front of the crease because of the "new" enforcement on the slashing to the hands rule. That is partly why scoring is up throughout the league this season.
However, if AV really believes what he stated in that quote, then he is delusional and has to be replaced!

The first part is true, but to me the recent PK struggles are directly attributable to that issue.

Exactly, lets trade away some picks and whats left in our barren cupboards for some more marginal players to help us squeek into the playoffs, just to get blown out in the first round. Makes perfect sense....

I am definitely leaning towards sell mode, but, I think hold out for the best prices until late in the day on Feb 26th
