    Left handed vet d man. Seems like he's good defensively. Have to research it. He was a -1 on the shit Red Wings last year which is almost impossible to do because they sucked so bad.

    Senile Brooks says he can play it nasty and is a stay at home guy they might pair with Lundkvist. Contract term looks good. Surely a guy they can deal if they choose. I like it.

    I love a big nasty defenseman for the rangers that is not a traffic cone!

    I like him for the third pair. Fits what they are looking for in a partner for Nils. He wasn't great in the playoffs in the COL games I saw, but always tough to judge guys who move at the deadline into a way different system and the standards on COL's blueline are very high. I also didnt realize he was Swedish, so that'll help Nils as well. Overall good move.

    I had dreams of Suter filling this role but that was always a pipe dream for us.

    Suter is a fucking relic.

    Wrong. Suter can still play and will get a great deal this offseason from a contender. The point is moot anyway as the role is filled.

    He's not going to get shit. He's old and he will be double dipping. I don't expect him to get more than 1 million.

    Nemeth doesn't move the needle much but they do need some experience. I thought Gio would've been excellent for a year but apparently that's not in the cards, maybe.

    It's always funny to see the fans of teams when they lose a player. Us included. I never liked Buchpussy. Av's fans are dismissing this guy. Yet, the last 4 losses to Vegas Girard was a -9, Makar was a -5 and their goalie sucked ass. Yet, that wasn't the reason they lost.

    They seemed to assume after the 1st game that their skill alone was going to get them through against an experienced team that didn't panic. Hopefully it's a good learning experience for them, but losing Landeskog wouldn't help, they need to keep him. He's really their leader.

    We don't need a center. They have Zibanejad, Strome, Chytil. Goodrow can play center as can Barron and Richards. We need a vet forward who can score, hit and isn't a pussy. That isn't Kreider.

    Right, i was thinking along the lines that Strome or Chytil were dealt at some point. Don't really like Chytil at C anyway.

    I don’t know I was watching him on face-offs the second half and he was a ton better. If you look at his face off percentage he didn’t end up much worse than Strome. Dvorak is a guy I still would pursue

    I guess if Chytil and/or Strome are dealt it would be in a package for a big time C anyway.
