I brought them up as an example of a team with aspirations of winning the Cup with having a great season to your brother who said they were on the cusp of winning the Cup. No other reason.

Are the only teams who are allowed to be “on the cusp” the ones who end up winning? Like is it only a retrospective thing?

We’re good enough healthy imo to win it all. Between the coaching staff, and hunger that should take care of the problems from last year. Now we just need to tweak the roster

Now Perrault gets his first

Hot take: Perrault will win the Conn smythe

I think the next tweak will be Kakko coming back and seeing how he fits back into this thing

and then keep assessing how things are working, and still a move wont be made until the day of the March 8th deadline

Kakko has to come back and play his ass off or he’s gone in the off-season

Yea agree. Kakko probably deserves another shot with Zib line at some point too. Because we have RWs it’s a question if they’re good enough

yeah probably, he needs a new contract and needs to be qualified at like 2.3 mil to retain his RFA rights

He could go at the deadline too. He’ll have like a 6 week audition to stay or go imo

Just read Ek's blog... I didn't know Steven Stamkos was a free agent after this season.

Drury.... make it happen. Center position solved. Stamkos at 50% retained.

Believe me I’ve tried seems like that’s a no go. He’s guaranteed he wouldn’t waive for anywhere. Which is silly if he loves that org so much. Help them out for a bit and just go back as a UFA.

I correct myself from before, NHL trade deadline is actually Friday March 8th

Rangers are off all that week and then have a home game vs St Louis on saturday March 9th

leading up to deadline we will have no games to distract us from the trade talk

Does Kakko have a ballpark date of return yet?

Interesting schedule timing. Might help to complete the trades earlier in that week then, but Drury may have to wait to the 8th to maximize cap space and to have teams budge on their prices.

All I hear is how much he loves the org. Well help them out Mr hero and become a Ranger for a couple months lol

I think if we were struggling in the standings they’d be more inclined to make a trade pre TDL. But as much as I want one lol they are in position to wait (much to my chagrin 😔)

7th dman and center is really all we need. I’m assuming Chytil is done for the season even if he somehow comes back for the playoffs which I don’t think is likely.
