Pete Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 It's like if K'A Miller decides to stay in college for 4 years and then chooses to sign with a different team. Yeah, it's within the rules but that skidmark isn't coming out in the wash. It is considered a loophole and will remain in the players file so to speak.I dunno. The fact that Chicago is a rumored landing spot for Hayes kinda says otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBrowningPI Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 I dunno. The fact that Chicago is a rumored landing spot for Hayes kinda says otherwise.I dunno either. This is just my perception and an article in the past that mentioned the "college loophole". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty9 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 i don't have a problem the rangers keeping Vesey until he starts to cost too much $$$$$$$,keeping him around until you have better player to replace him is ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Well he's a third round pick and a third line player vs a first round pick and first line player. No one is thinking of paying Vesey $6 million+. Which underlying metrics? His analytics have actually gotten better ever year in the league. He gets a lot of D Zone starts for someone you're saying is a terrible defensive player, and was part of the PK group. I guess what I'm really saying is that I don't get why anyone spends any amount of feelings hating the guy. He's just a guy. Like you forget he's there, most of the time. I know he was drafted in the 3rd but then he developed more than expected in the years following his draft. When he signed with us the hype was that we were essentially getting a 1st rounder for nothing. And that wasn't just board generated hype, that was hockey people generated hype. Regardless, we're in agreement. I don't hate the guy but he's not a vital component on the team. Just another guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we're in agreement that he's probably expendable on the Rangers, and that's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThirtyONE Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Someone else just said he requested a trade. I’m not posting the link because I have no idea who the person is on Twitter. Seems like there’s smoke here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThirtyONE Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I wonder what the Sabres are willing to give up here? Can't imagine it would be much. Maybe with Hayes and Vesey gone, Skjei will actually get his shit together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breaking up the spice boys might be a good thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted June 18, 2019 Author Share Posted June 18, 2019 You're not getting a good player for Jimmy Vesey. They'll probably get an OK player back. Vesey has a ton of warts, and still carries the stigma of not living up to the "sweepstakes" hype, but he has back-to-back 17-goal seasons under his belt.

You'll get an equally as frustrating, 30 point player in return, most likely. A pick would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillyb Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 The fact that Buffalo even wants him is fantastic. We got a taker for Pionk and now possibly one for Vesey - that's great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYR2711 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I'd take a pick over a player TBH This, if they can get a 3rd rounder for him, that would be great. They need to move out money, not take money back. Plus, they need roster spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Isn't Vesey a UFA after next season? I think both Vesey and Namestnikov are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
