Pretty frustrating in hind-sight that the right move was no move at all. Rangers probably would have been better off keeping Pionk and Hayes rather than trade for Trouba. I thought it was a great move at the time but unfortunately none of the center prospects have panned out and Trouba is unbelievably one-dimensional.

Not being a dack but you could make the argument Pionk is better then Trouba and a lot cheaper at that. At the same time I thought it was a good trade for you guys at the time

Can't believe what's going on with Zib. I still think they resign him because what other options would there be unless they want to unload a bunch of your top prospects for Eichel

I keep saying it could be a blessing in disguise. He can't really demand 10 million a year anymore. Going to save us a ton of cap space

I think they have enough assets to look at trades with other teams this summer for a center

and maybe they'll find lottery luck again, which would be a hell of a trade asset

True lock him up at a reasonable price and watch him go back to last years numbers.

He used to own a pizza shop in new york...not sure if he still does

Also when he played for the Rangers he had the famous quote, "This loss won't ruin my christmas"

Another big thing about Panarin, just think of all the talent he will bring to the Rangers. I have a feeling a big reason Igor came over and potentially Kratsov will be over later this season is Panarin. And once the Rangers get some cap space over the next couple of offseason free agents will want to play with him. It goes way behind just winning with a star like him. Going to create a brand here.

He's the perfect player to build around. Every aspect of Artemi Panarin on the New York Rangers is positive.

And to use his current situation as a way to promote a ridiculously asinine idea...

😂😂

they never would have had the cap room for Panarin if they signed Hayes

they kind of made the decision to move on from Hayes and Zuccarello and use the money to keep them on Panarin
- jimbro83

I continue to call bullpoop in this- they signed Trouba for more money. They could have had Hayes and Panarin!!
