@BlueshirtObs Sure. This will be one of the more interesting Wolfpack rosters at forward in a long time. Love Leach as coach too. What I usually focus in on is whether kids start producing year 1. If they don’t, then more red flags.

@bszen1977 All good points but I'm still gonna be excited that we have some decent prospects developing and doing well. We will see how his size and talent translates to AHL talent this year.
English
I'm hyped to get a look at Nathan Aspinall in camp/preseason. He is one of the prospects I’m most excited about. Coming off a breakout OHL year he’ll get big minutes in Hartford & maybe NHL time depending on injuries. 6'7" point scorer!!! can't wait to see him in pro hockey! #NYR
English
Patrik Laine, Michael Bunting, and Eeli Tolvanen are all still available UFAs.
Chris Drury its not too late brother.
English
@NickZararis This is why I see them on the ice with Durzi, because that is an area he excels at.
English
Dorofeyev, Miller and Bjorgstrand is going to be a fascinating exercise in transition play. All three guys are good with the puck on their stick in O-Zone but creating entries is going to be an adventure

Here's the lineup that could be hittin' the ice in the Big Apple in a few months! 🍎 Read more on the @NYRangers' projected lineup ➡️ bit.ly/4yAElD6

@DynoDangle Barzal is more likely to be traded in the coming years than be captain. His name was literally floating out there this summer
English
I think it should be Barzal (obviously) but I'm not in the room and I know those guys opinions are the only ones that matter. Why Barzal gets so much shade from everyone? Who knows.
Stefen Rosner@stefen_rosner
Bo Horvat isn't just the favorite to become the next #Isles captain. He's the clear-cut choice. @TheElmonters ⤵️ theelmonters.com/p/islanders-ca…

@vzmercogliano For the record here are my lines: x.com/DaveyUpper/sta…
David 🏒@DaveyUpper
Gabe-Mika-Laf Kartye-Miller-Dorofeyev Cuylle-Laba-Bjorkstrand Chmelar-Veleno-Raddysh/Rempe #NYR Gavrikov-Fox Pettersson-Durzi Robertson/Smits-Schneider/Morrow Kartye-Miller have created some chemistry, Kartye is a work horse, he'll get in on the forecheck for Dorofeyev

We’re recording the season finale of #TheFlyingV podcast today, so for the final time this summer, let’s see any questions or general thoughts you’d like addressed on the show!

@Lundqvist819 @mathewjdp How are you complaining?? Love what Drury did with the D, but we have no clue how it will turn out. I think Pettersson will rebound with Sullivan, but he has been atrocious in Vancouver. The author used those stats to make the chart.
English
@mathewjdp Gavrikov-Fox
Pettersson-Durzi
Robertson-Schneider
7D: Morrow/Vaakanainen
What do NYR have to do to be top tier. Elite top pair. Good middle pair. Elite bottom pair.
Multiple 7D/callup options like Morrow/Vaak/Smits/Cholowski/Fitzgerald/Fortescue
English
I still think he re-signs with Minnesota but man…
This feels like textbook emotions management here. Death by a thousand paper cuts.
In a week it’ll be “still optimism.”
In 2 weeks it’s “they remain hopeful”
In a month it’s “mutual interest to get this done”
2 months? Devil
JP Gambatese@jp_gambatese
“Done deal” to “very likely” to “still convinced” is quite the tumultuous short-term timeline for Quinn Hughes contract negotiations, eh? The cracks are forming, I’d say. #NJDevils
English
It’s extremely obvious Robertson and Dallas have an under the table handshake on what his long term extension would be
Dallas will have close to $25M in summer when Seguin expires
Robertson is going them a favor by playing this season at $12M
English
@nyrangersmuse He could be a good NHL player but Beaudoin just isn’t that guy. He has a crazy motor but you need some major skills to score like that.
English
wouldn’t it be so cool if Beaudoin become a 110 point center
English
@jrh002DFS Emery is just a prospect, which wouldn’t take any cap space. I added him to the trade to entice Verbeek. I just think moving FV/AK is going to take attaching a 1st rounder. Can Verbeek stomach that? Moving Terry can at least get a solid asset like Schneider back. Ducks need D
English
@bszen1977 Yeah while I do agree a scheinder for Terry swap is intriguing, the point I meant to make was I’m not sure they need to include Emery *if* Verbeek is willing to move Terry to save salary. It’s more likely he will want to move Vatrano and Killorn
English
I get the trade offer in a nutshell but the Ducks are looking to shed salary and it’s completely obvious so no way the Rangers would offer this
Brett@bszen1977
@NHLTradeAlert @CapWages Braden Schneider (half-retained) and former 1st round pick EJ Emery for Troy Terry.
English
@NHLTradeAlert Forgot that this doesn’t factor in the insane cap issues Verbeek faces and if they can stomach attaching significant assets to get rid of Vatrano/Kreider/Killorn.
English
@chattis33 @tmatthewshockey My post was probably too blunt. Mercer is a fine middle-sixer, but he shouldn’t be the centerpiece of a trade for such a good player. It’s a red flag the most Devil fans would be way too happy with doing that trade.
English
@bszen1977 @tmatthewshockey Mercer is a good middle six player that you control for 2 more years
Devils probably would still have to add another first in that package
English
@NHLTradeAlert @CapWages Braden Schneider (half-retained) and former 1st round pick EJ Emery for Troy Terry.
English
We did this last year and it was a lot of fun so let's try it again.
Give me your trade proposals and I will run them through @Capwages trade builders and post the results.
English
@TheAlphaDolphin Can you do this for K’Andre Miller with the NYR? Because I am getting deja vu.
English
@JHammer_87 Well… when most players make these decisions as a UFA, they indeed look at their hometowns, but winning is also a huge part of it. Especially if he has been losing in Chicago for the next several years. Will Vancouver be any better??
English
This is going to be a glorious receipt in 5yrs lol
Tab Bamford@The1Tab
but I was told Bedard was going to sign with the Canucks as soon as humanly possible...
English
@Agentsmith212 @philu916 @BaldPanarin I’m a big Scott Wheeler fan. If he says that Smits will likely be a top pairing D and is currently the 9th prospect in all of hockey, then I’m inclined to believe that.
English
@philu916 @BaldPanarin in principle that is fine. but it just looks bad when being "nhl ready" was the selling point and other options were there.
English
Gavrikov - Fox
Pettersson - Durzi...
Is the best #NYR top-4 d-core since...?
Major credit to the front office for executing on Sullivan's wish of adding more puck-moving D.
