ClearedForContact Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 The Rick Nash era in New York is almost officially over. At least for now. According to TSN’s Bob McKenzie, the former All-Star is expected to be traded to the Boston Bruins.

NYRangers723 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Well that's a little anti climatic Not really. Its a good return for a rental who is still good but not what he was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 A 1st, a 7th, Ryan Lindgren, Ryan Spooner (nice) and Matt Beleskey for Nash. Fucking Eh. I think Beleskey signals this is going to be more than a one year program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRangers723 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 We also got ryan spooner a 7th. We took belesky but bruins are retaining salary. Gorton did a great job...bruins fans are pissed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I might have did Spooner straight up. What a fucking haul! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Beleskey signals this is going to be more than a one year program. Beleskey costs us 800k or so against the cap if he doesn't make the team and 1.9 or so if he does. Decidedly meh player. Spooner, Lindgren, and a 1st is a pretty solid haul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spooner, Lindgren, and a 1st is a pretty solid haul. Thats just for the remainder of this season. He has 2 more years at 3,8m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 They'll be eating Beleskey (and maybe more like it) for the next couple years. Safe to say McD, Zucc, all gone and next year is a write off. I'm good with it. They'll essentially go from bottom three farm system to top three in a calendar year by the draft.

Phil Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Yeah, I'm A-OK with this. Got the first, got a workable asset in Spooner (who can either be flipped himself, or if retained, allows them to maximize returns on one of Hayes or Miller), got a second-round pick in Lindgren (Marc Staal, for when Staal is bought out?), and took on a Beleskey contract that should affect NOTHING given BOS took money on his deal to move him. Even if he's buried next season, his remaining cap hit will be negligible (sub $1M). For a rebuilding team, that doesn't matter one iota.

josh Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 This turns out to be a solid deal, then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindG1000 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 no shit? I didnt see that, my bad Rhommy! Yup - basically he's an ELC against our cap without playing for us. Not too bad. No worries sir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myusername Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Fucking hell. That’s some payday for 20 games of Rick Nash. Spooner alone has been nearly as productive as Nash this season. Lindgren has top 4 upside Boston must really think Nash has been severely underperforming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myusername Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Rangers better not fuck up this draft... You can't ask for a better quick rebuild opportunity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
