Jan Levine: NYR free agency day 1: Vesey dealt, team w/ enough dough to ink Breadman
Artemi Panarin is a New York Ranger

The rangers (frank)ed up a lot with players and trades the last 20 years.

This offseason has been close to perfect. Anyone saying otherwise is salty as (frank)

Can’t wait for Panarin and Kakko to get injured in training camp and for our season to be ruined

God i hate the rangers, but trouba, kakko and Panarin is easily the grandslam of the summer unless something ridiculous happens. Very jealous, i wont lie.

Would love to have Kreider now that Pavs is gone. Not sure if SJ could put together a reasonable package though.

We will give you Kreider, Strome (50% retained), and a good sweetener for Hertl

Pierre LeBrun is stating that the Canes are close to re-signing goalie Peter Mrazek to a two year deal.
If that occurs, Ek and the Buzz are reporting that the Hawks would then move on in looking to sign goalie Robin Lehner instead.

Kreider Georgiev and one of Howden, Andersson or one of our D prospects

Hertl, Melker Karlsson and Dell (salary dumps)..your thoughts...

Ok Burton

If he doesn't change his nickname I am 100% against this signing

Maybe Strome. But Hertl is the perfect 2C to slide right in. If we got him, I mean we are fairly loaded at that point. I’d venture to say we could win the metro

Breadman for sure now, he’s making 11.5 a year haha

In two more years, $25 mil off the books with Hank, Staal, Smith, and Shattenkrik gone. The Panarin signing is great and even better that the islanders didn’t get him, great day today

Neither team can really add salary though.

CAN BARELY EXHALE ... THEY got the man
Now the work really starts
how do you take Shatty Smith from D Krieder & Namestikov Strome

and get a top center to work with Zbanijad and not force feed the 2 C slot
to a youngster not ready

AND get enough under the cap to afford Buchny Lemeuix ADA Truba

I think with the amount of picks & prospects we can sweeten any deal to make teams want to take on the trades we have to offer .Have to expect salary eating too help make it happen as well as Georgiev

Kreidr & Georgiev & a top pick or prospect (Lindgren /Keane )

Need a 2 C and lets go to war with the Kids, Hank & company

Neither team can really add salary though.

I think the rangers still can. They could just buy out the two guys I proposed, it wasn’t a bad buy out at all

SJ could really use Georgy imo

a pick, a prospect and some nasty 4th line grit and it's a deal

Trouba was only the 2nd prize though - Karlsson was the one they wanted!

Nice free agent signing. The rivalry is heating up again and the next 10 years should be a blast!

It was really just 2 of us that wanted him maybe a handful more, but EK clearly was not wanted in this blog

Unrelated, but sad story for anyone at age 27, including at that same age as I had experienced first hand over two decades ago, with the way too premature death of my only brother, (& in not having any sisters).

point was that EK65 was the NYR' #1 D target this summer, but 11.5 was just too rich...

If there’s one guy I wouldn’t trade it would be Hertl. Especially with the contract he has rn. Considering SJ has to be in win-now mode they can’t sacrifice a prominent player, which obv makes a Kreider trade hard.
