I don't think it's exaggerating to say that the Huberdeau contract in Calgary may be the worst contract in the history of sports

all of them

and I don't think it's particularly close

so, congrats to Calgary for getting a good deal for Lindholm but OMG they are sooooooo screwed for sooooooo long

Exactly. We know more or less what we have in Kakko, why take a chance on trying out a player who isn't an upgrade in a lateral trade.
- Fenrir


I also agree with this. Plus, Kakko played in the playoffs with us. We went to the conference finals last year with him in the lineup. He’s scored in the conference finals. That experience is going to be important come playoff time vs. a lateral move where the player doesn’t have playoff experience.

Take out Chychrun and the 2nd round pick and Ottawa might think that's a fair deal.

1994 Rangers

In- Matteau, Noonan, McTavish, Anderson.

Out- Amonte, Marchand, Gartner

Grow a pair Brukie, grow a pair. And it’s not like we don’t need it, as we’ve seen how pathetic our depth is

You dont think with your balls, you think with your head, which I see you dont sometimes. That was 30 years ago and doesnt have any relevance to today. This is a different league, different team. This team is really flawed as of now. Igor is playing well below average and the team defense is atrocious.

You just want a trade for just for the sake of a trade. Let me remind you of the trade you wanted for Kane last year, that didnt work out so well now did it? Whether it was his fault or not, acquiring him disrupted the room to some extent and the tears started to flow.

The Rangers need a 3rd line C, RW and a Defense man with not much trade capital.

Exactly. And with a team that is 32nd out of 32 teams at defending against the rush, with all recent cup champions being top 5 or close, should we really deplete our prospect and pick pool further this season in hope of a literal miracle?

Listen, I'm fine that Chris Drury didn't make that deal. But I'm also gonna bash Chris Drury at every turn. Hypocritical, yes.

But if you're top target was Lindholm. You should be annoyed that Chris Drury was not out front in trying to get Lindholm.

I'm very much with you brother on Novak. Because that move allows them to make at least 1 more move, maybe 2.

I'd be ok with Drury trading Othmann, but it has to be for a younger player with term.

Exactly!!

I wouldnt do anything until the deadline, which is all dependent on how the team is playing.

If they can make a hockey trade for a 3rd line center, then Im all for it but Im not looking to trade of KK yet.

These players are a dime a dozen. It's time. We gotta call it. Kakko ain't it.

I’m willing to bet that he floated the rumors out there so he’d get traded somewhere else and he never intended to trade for him. Doing this to get the dominos started.

Besides I can’t imagine this place today if he traded Kakko and Schneider for a rental. It would be epically bad in here

To be fair they really don’t unless they trade Perrault or Othman. Not sure Kakkos value is that high around the league and they don’t have any other A type prospects teams want in trades. Why this trade deadline will be interesting. Hoping teams accept those 2nd round picks that become 1sts if they make the conference finals

That would be bad, and I'd be first in line calling him an idiot.

So you think this team need 5 players to make a Cup run??? How about Igor? Team defense? If those arent fixed, you still want to make those trades??

Well, you have to make those trades because of the 8 full NMC/NTC on the roster. You can't do anything else.

they have it just no one wants it to be traded lol Schneider is the one, but we’ve been down this road a zillion times

they’d rather wait and maybe the off chance were better in 3 years to take a run at it. You know much has to happen for us to be good in 3 years? A lot. One of them being finding someone as good as Panarin.

It’s mind boggling how few people don’t see this. We’re guaranteed to be good this year with a few moves, nothing 3 years from now is guaranteed. It’s just fact
