Dunny Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I don't think he retires either. I think they trade Georgiev, because it's the simplest solution presented. But that's not what he asked me. He was asking if my post wasn't true, how to get rid of him. I think that's the only viable alternative. All good, I was just musing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I think they trade Georgiev, too, but they better get a haul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 What hole does Bracco fill? He's a B prospect. Georgiev is better than Hank now, and obviously going forward. Is he, though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 If you go by that chart Hank is in the Vezina conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 If you go by that chart Hank is in the Vezina conversation. No, because it's relative to workload. Hank's is not a historic Hank-like one, ergo he's not a Vezina candidate. But he is a quality backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Pretty easy decision here: Georgie goes, and Hank plays out his deal through next season as a backup with Shesterkin as #1. We trade Georgie to Toronto after they've weighed all their options, and we get back a solid young player that can jump in the lineup and produce. The we start sitting guys like McKegg, Haley, etc...

NYR2711 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 By approaching him honestly about the idea of retirement. Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk this isn't a easy as it sounds. Its not like he is struggling out there, he is just playing behind a shitty defensive team. He isn't washed up, and he may not be ready for retirement.

NYR2711 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Great, because I'm not advocating for it. Trade Georgiev. I got no problem with that either. I was just pointing out that its not as easy as people think. Ive seen a lot of people saying they should ask him to retire, he has enough money, blah blah blah. The guy still has something in the tank, I don't think he will retire until his contract is at least up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 What hole does Bracco fill? He's a B prospect. Georgiev is better than Hank now, and obviously going forward. He fills the third line wing hole. Geo is definitely not better than Hank. They're pretty much the same. EDIT: What Phil's chart said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 all of this wont matter when Skunk will eventually take you camping This is true!!! LOL I got no problem with that either. I was just pointing out that its not as easy as people think. Ive seen a lot of people saying they should ask him to retire, he has enough money, blah blah blah. The guy still has something in the tank, I don't think he will retire until his contract is at least up. I don't think Hank's ever going to retire...unless you shoot him! The guy is going to be a super backup to "The Czar".... Hey Phil, I like that better than "The Prince"!!! :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThirtyONE Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I don't know why everyone is suddenly cumming themselves about Bracco. Who the fuck is this kid? 22yo, never played an NHL game. 5'9 181 LBS. I mean... what? Sounds like an AHL hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who the fuck is this kid? 22yo, never played an NHL game. 5'9 181 LBS. I mean... what? Sounds like an AHL hero. He's a quality AHL player who probably should be in the NHL but can't break in with the Leafs because he's facing a wall of better players ahead of him. He requested a trade a bit ago that went public, which is why he's been linked to the Rangers (not to mention his being from Freeport, NY. No one is "cumming themselves" over him. He's just a logical piece in hypothetical trade scenarios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slobberknocker Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I'd want something more than just him for Georgy. if we are letting CK go, Nylander or Marner should be the ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 If the Rangers wanted Bracco the deal would already be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrooksBurner Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I mean you had him on the 2nd line of our current team... Well, that's where he should be given a chance given his skillset (or 3rd line, but somewhere in the top 9). It doesn't mean he has to stay there, or even with the team at all if he doesn't perform. He could also be a steal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I mean you had him on the 2nd line of our current team... What? When? I feel like this is entirely dependent on context, but objectively, Bracco is a top-nine-or-bust type of player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skunkman Posted January 17, 2020 Author Share Posted January 17, 2020 I know we have to trade one of our Kid Goalies, but to me this team does not play as good for Hank as they do for the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
