TwoMinutesForNothing Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 I don't know about character, but here are some players that I think would be great cheap targets based on advanced stats and production in limited opportunities. Even if they don't stick they would all be great for the Pack.

Phil Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Great. Why are you adding them to a thread about adding character if they don't bring it? Maybe start a new thread on them?

TwoMinutesForNothing Posted June 29, 2018 Author Share Posted June 29, 2018 Yeah good point. It's been so long since I've started a thread like that. Switch it to offseason thread or start a new one I guess. I figured they were minor guys that nobody would care that much about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 DeMelo interests me. Fitz wrote a bit on him recently. Hang on, I'll link it. Here it is: DeMelo might be my favorite player on this list. He’s another player who doesn’t put up huge counting stats, but given the data and the (admittedly) little I saw him play—I watched between 5–10 Sharks games last year—I think he’s a solid player who can contribute in certain areas. Here’s a look at his All-Three-Zone data: DeMelo is shit at exits, but he’s dynamite at shot contributions and entries, and has solid entry defense numbers. Kevin Shattenkirk and Neal Pionk are entrenched as the Rangers top-two right-handed defensemen, but it gets murky after them. There’s Tony DeAngelo, who is running out of chances to prove himself as an NHL player. There’s also former Alain Vigneault top-pairing defenseman Steven Kampfer. While he’s probably a great fella, Kampfer is simply not an NHL defenseman, and is best suited to be a depth piece or an AHL-filler moving forward. The Sharks decided not to give DeMelo a qualifying offer, meaning he’ll be an unrestricted free agent. According to Cane’s model, DeMelo should command a two-year contract with a $1.2 AAV. Personally, I think DeMelo can be an absolute boon for the Rangers, especially if they decide to cut bait with DeAngelo. https://gothamsn.com/seven-players-the-rangers-can-sign-to-the-benoit-pouliot-memorial-contract-7d7c824e9490 Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
