lefty9 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 36 played one heck of a game in Jersey tonight. Why is signing him for two years if he'd take it beyond consideration for Gorton? It's not as if he's taking a roster spot away from some great young phenom.Zuc been playing great hockey lately,he has overlooking like his old self,keep it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Trautwig is straight up cringeworthy all the time. I like Vally and Pitdo and his stupid 150 have been slowly growing on me for the past few years...maybe it's Stockholm Syndrome. Sir, I salute you!!! :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4EverRangerFrank Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Zucc needs someone to pass to. IF we could land THAT elite scorer then keeping Zucc makes sense. If not then all of the best passing in the world won't matter. He's the consummate playmaker living life in a supporting role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myusername Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Zucc ain't bringing much back this year...we waited too long on this guy. If we get a decent prospect for him I'd be happy. 12 points in his last 6 games approaching the deadline... what are you talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 12 points in his last 6 games approaching the deadline... what are you talking about? This, plus a 61 point pace on this season which would match his career high. He's playing extremely well over the course of the last month or so after a slow start + inj. Based on production, his value was trending downwards to start the year but it's recovered by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBrowningPI Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Trading Zucc is a mistake. Yeah, he's 30, I get it. There are certain people who play sports like their 5 years younger. I think Zucc is one of them. Whatever return the Rangers get in a trade will have a ton of risks and the chance of getting a player better then they have with Zucc is very slim. Add on his manageable cap hit and it really makes no sense. Without Zucc on the first line, you are back to not having a first line. Getting back to the age thing, I think Zucc is in his prime now and he has a minimum of 4 years that I could see him playing at his best. Then you factor in the lockeroom, Hank, the fans and IMO they should just sign him, piss on potential, risky prospects or draft picks.

Sent from my [device_name] using http://Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Any time you have a guy approaching UFA, when you are a rebuilding team, you have to move him. Is he going to want to stay on a team with no chance of winning? He's 31 years old. If he's lucky he has maybe 4-5 years left in the league. He's going to want to sign a big ticket somewhere, and he's going to want to sign it with a competitive team. Love Zuc, he's been one of my favorite Rangers ever. But everything comes to an end. Get assets to help rebuild for him while you can instead of losing him for nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBrowningPI Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 3 x 3 is just not happening. Names gets 4 so Zucc should get 5 x 3 . Right? Sent from my SM-N900T using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjweimar Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Want nothing to do with him at 5 or 6, I think his ask will be in between and I believe his body is taking a hit and deteriorating Sent from my [device_name] using http://Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my [device_name] using http://Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk So you want to keep Zucc knowing that he's an Unrestricted Free Agent at the end of the season and may decide to just go anywhere else and trade Hayes for a sandwich?

fletch Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Zucc for Calgary draft pick(s)? Sign me up. Zucc would give the Flames a boost in trying to get deep in the playoffs. Rangers could use draft picks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What am I talking about?? :rofl: When he hasn't been out of the lineup with menstrual cramps, he's been downright unispiring to say the LEAST. Hey listen, I'm glad he's playing better of late, maybe we can get something decent for him, but you have to be careful....some of those NHL GM's actually know what they're doing! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Future Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Zucc for Calgary draft pick(s)? Sign me up. Zucc would give the Flames a boost in trying to get deep in the playoffs. Rangers could use draft picks Calgary is tough because they don't have a 2nd rounder. I guess, since they're going to be a high seed, they might be OK with trading pick #25 or whatever, but a 1st for Zucc seems like a stretch, and a 3rd is an undersell.

It seems like the market is a bit of a buyers market not so Idk if we'd be getting firsts for everyone but maybe CGY would be willing to part with their 2020 1st?

Phil Posted February 5, 2019 Author Share Posted February 5, 2019 11. Add Calgary to the list of teams that have checked in on Mats Zuccarello. But it is going to take a lot to pry Chris Kreider out of Manhattan. He’s got another year remaining. https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/31-thoughts-auston-matthews-extension-game-changer-nhl/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea probably, but I think Zucc's best return will include a prospect - along the lines of Lindgren, Howden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
