Glambags posted:Bad Richards and Brian Leetch apparently joining the rangers in hockey ops roles For some reason I feel like I keep seeing people saying that Richards is actually a pretty smart hockey dude with good connections Leetch is funny because I'm pretty sure he hated Sather after being traded and only recently has started coming back to the Rangers fold

JoelJoel posted:^^^ Followed it up with an 18 goal season I don't think he's a star center, he could be a good #1, but the cost to get him is going to be real high apparently. That's the crux of the issue. He's not a guy you blow up your team or farm team to acquire IMO

Didn't people give Ovechkin a ton of poo poo because he used yellow laces Also didn't the NHL ban mirrored visors because goalies complained they couldn't see the shooters eyes or something

weren't GMs like all "no we like it's working as intended" when they met about the rules and that very suggestion? I think it'll cut down on the "his skate blade was possibly vaguely off the ice a nanosecond before the puck was in the zone" calls which were the annoying ones but obvious missed calls can be easily reversed. Wonder if the refs complained about it

ElwoodCuse posted:The Rangers are probably only a couple more wet playoff farts away from retiring another 94 number Nah they're actually retiring some older guys numbers that maybe should have been retired before now. They're retiring Ratelle's number 19 this year and he's a HOFer. They also co-retired number 9 for both Bathgate and Graves which is kind of dumb but is better than just retiring it for Graves Sounds like the Rangers rookie tournament was a big wet fart from them but oh well, these tourney's are barely meaningful at all. I think I recall Hagelin having a pretty mediocre one before going on to have a pretty successful career

AV told Miller he'd start the season at center. Will be interesting to see how that goes Also says that he "expects Skjei to compete for a top 4 spot on D" lmao edit: this is interesting though https://twitter.com/drosennhl/statu...23post135763521 Kind of doubt that he'll not make the starting roster but at least the idea is intriguing.

Jovial Cow posted:I dunno how I feel about Zibby -> Hayes -> Miller down the middle. I guess I hope it works out. Hayes or Miller as a #2 center seems like it could be dicey though. The talent is there but Hayes and Miller's underlying stats have always been bad possibly because neither one wants to shoot the puck. The real question I guess is whether they can produce against some tougher competition

Jamwad Hilder posted:I'm surprised no one has traded for Duchene even considering that Sakic is probably asking for too much. A team like Carolina could really use him and probably has the pieces to get a deal done too. Reportedly Sakic's ask from Nashville was one of their top 4 D and additional pieces He's not going to get traded until that price comes down. Also, Kreider has moved on from killing goalies to killing himself https://twitter.com/BrettCyrgalis/s...7343%26page%3D6 he's fine

Thufir posted:Man, I remember him being pretty decent in NHL 2003 or something and then being kind of excited when he got traded to Nashville in 2008. He was pretty skilled and had a few good years with the "Czech line" on the Rangers before he got traded to Philly in exchange for Lindros. Just gonna assume Philly and Vancouver ruined him.
