How bout Gourde?

Hes 32, Kraken captain and carries an over 5m per contract with one more year left on it.

I really want Lindholm, but that means either bumping Trocheck down to 3C or using him as 3C which is kind of out place for a guy who regularly plays 20 min a game. Only Crosby and Lindholm have won more faceoffs than Trocheck this year. Lindholm will definitely take some of the faceoff responsibility off of Trocheck.

The Kraken and Rangers matchup well for a trade. Wouldn’t surprise me if they hooked up

Wennberg too out there, I think he’s a UFA

Yea Ive looked at Wennberg, for a 3C that also takes a lot of faceoffs, hes not that great at it with a 48% win rate.

I’m not obsessed with the guy needing to be a great faceoff guy, but Peca could coach him up to get really good at it probably. I just want someone who can produce a bit more at 5 on 5 over anything else

We could in one fell swoop raid Seattle with Schultz, Wennberg and Eberle and call it day. Kakko and Jones in the trade tho

Sissons is a guy I like, really wanted us to make a run at him and sign him a year ago. 25-30 points a year, 100-150 hits, consistently in the mid 50% on faceoffs, been on the Selke ballot a couple times. Hes essentially a Goodrow for a mil less on the cap.

Under 30, fast, productive, physical, good on faceoffs, strong puck play and available...

Yea hold on, lemme pull up this ridiculously long list of players.

Right off the bat you are wrong, he is 31 soon to be 32. He is slow as poop definitely not physical and as for strong puck play, not in my opinion....NEXT!!!!

Im not talking about Hayes.

Im listing all the qualities you want in a player we acquire. Excellent job reading.

Its more like reading comprehension but of course when the author has only 2 brain cells its hard to decipher.

Don't get all up tight because you misread the post, wrote some nonsense and got called out. But good for you, I'm sure you feel proud of yourself.

I think you have to realize the options aren’t overly plentiful and you could dissect any player negatively. But we have Bonino as the 3C which means anyone out there is probably a better option for us in that spot. We have to get someone that’s better then Bonino, and we have cap restraints on top of it

A guy with term makes sense because we’ll just be in the same spot next season (w/o Chytil), unless Edstrom makes it..which is possible I guess. We don’t have much in house options for 3C

Schultz has played in 81 career playoff games. Thats something that Drury probably values in looking at rentals. That wouldn’t be a bad option to improve over Jones

Seattle has big butts apparently

I dont think what I wrote is non sense and I didnt misread it it, you were speaking of Hayes and how great he would be. I think you are thinking about some of the poop you post. Your posts are like throwing poop on the wall and hoping it sticks. They are like wish lists for a 5yo!

Nonsense because your post was completely wrong in relation to what I said, but again, whatever makes you feel good about yourself sweetheart.

If you have an issue with fans being fans, then maybe youre in the wrong place. Maybe you should just not deal with sports at all. Theres a lot more idealogues like me then bitter cvnts like you.

He comes here, with his nose to the sky to crap on Rangers fans, talking about the Rangers, on a Rangers blog about players who could potentially suit the Rangers and fill weaknesses on the Rangers lineup. He just comes here to troll people trying to have a conversation.

LOL Just because Hayes is the worst player to have as our 3c isnt my fault. You brought him up. Right I shouldnt watch at all cause you want the worst player as our 3c. As far as being a female genitalia, I think you are taking the cake today.

No to crap on stupid trade suggestions. Sorry and Hayes is a stupid trade suggestion, especially since the Blues are still in it. Like I said, you throw poop on the wall hoping it sticks.

I made a suggestion, you said you didnt like it, I made a rebuttal about the fact that what you want doesnt exist in the FA market, you kept assuming I was talking about Hayes and you get all bent out of shape when I tell you that I wasnt talking about Hayes.

But I get it now, I have to dance around your feelings because if I dont accommodate you and what you say then Im a child and a clown and someone with 2 brain cells. Ill make sure to do better next time.

Youre absolutely right, I apologize for my ridiculous player/trade suggestion.

I actually brought him up lol. He’s got 15 pts at ES, he’s 57% on faceoffs…so what if he’s slow, you know who else is slow and can’t score in a whorehouse?
Nick bonino

Can you bring anything to the table but mocking people?

I’m all ears…who do you think we should trade for? Contribute something . You’re the one for years who said we can’t win a cup with Panarin 🤷🏻‍♂️

Unbelievably weak center depth. That McConnell-Barker kid looks to be a great 2 way player but he’s gotta be 2-3 years away (if ever).

And the one we drafted and developed may not play again.

I’d like to see Edstrom more but doesn’t appear as though that will happen. He looked good during the game he played

But yea to your point, the only way to get a center is via trade. Rentals every year cost more and more assets

Think about through the years recently the centers we’ve drafted that have become NHL players and isn’t many: Chytil, JT Miller, Stepan, Dubinsky and a handful before them. It’s not a strength of ours. Goalies we got that locked up tho lol wingers and D too we do pretty well
