Why no Kravtsov. I don't get it. Kravtsov>>>>>Leschyshyn.

He’s not a center or a fourth line type player

So move Goodrow to the middle. Gallant has done it before. Move Vesey to 4th line, not a slight towards Vesey, just fits better there. Kravstov 3L RW. Problem solved.

Maybe possibly. But the identity of that third line has kind of been forged as a north/south no frills kind of line

It really is a mind (frank) with Kravtsov. I don’t get it

Vesey is fine at that line. I’d be ok with him on it the playoffs. One of those two does need to be a 4th liner, goodrow or Vesey

Are the #NYR done?

Drury: "We're open to exploring different ways to figure out the next move."

Asked about the fourth line specifically: "We're certainly still looking at ways to improve the group, like we did last year leading up to the deadline."

Cap update: Once Libor Hajek is either claimed or clears waivers, the #NYR will be left with a 22-man roster and a little over $1M in available cap space.

That number can grow to around $1.6M by the March 3 deadline, so the Rangers have enough room for another tweak.

Great deal by Drury on this one

Really hard to believe how we gave up only one real asset in this. And killing two birds with one stone

now is when the Devils counter with Timo Meier, they gotta be the favorites for him

Very curious about what plays out over the offseason. We'll have the same problem next year

I just tweeted this re: Kravtsov and line fit:
Unless third line and move Vesey down but can’t see that right now. Might be worth a try, can have Vesey-Goodrow-Gauthier on fourth line or Cuylle.

I'm for giving it a shot but i just don't see him fitting on that line at all

WTF???? Congrats you lucky SOB's. Pretty much completed most of your wish lists at once...1RW, 6/7D, moves Goodrow down, and exiled Blais. And got it done early to give Tarasenko extra time to acclimate.

Plan doesn't change lock up the RFAs. They gotta win now though. Best move they could have made for the RW. Either this or JVR. Get another cheap 3L/4l depth guy, send Leschyshyn to the press box and we ride.

the Devils need to pawn off the Andreas Johnsson contract on someone and give a pick with it

Logical. Although the company you keep is bad. The company? Me.
