Keirik Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Detroit straight up for Staal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 I keep thinking Detroit is a good spot for him. I know there might be some history there with yzerman but he still did draft him. I'd take Fabbri straight up. Sent from my SM-G950U using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Plus Detroit could just really use some more talent and cap space isn't an issue for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Detroit straight up for Staal. lmao that would be so funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Detroit doesn't really have any bad contracts at all....Looking at their cap, it looks like that whole team can do a complete flip flop in 2 seasons! http://www.capfriendly.com/teams/redwings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Yzerman traded him away from TB (after issues in Syracuse). To go along with his undeserved status as Golden Boy among fans, I dont see him taking on DeAngelo. Rangers need to hope there's a 2/3C out there that has been trying to force his way off his current team and that team is willing to gamble. GMs dont want to lose their jobs due to internet mob-mentality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gravesy Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 I still think it's a player with enough upside to make it worth it or buyout. Don't see them trading Tony with retention for a pick. A 3rd rounder isn't worth it, certainly not at this stage of the rebuild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keirik Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 i cant see any tweets posted on this site - is that the Bennett tweet? yeah Sam Bennett likely won’t be in the Flames lineup tonight against the Winnipeg Jets. Coach decision. This may fuel trade speculation, but sources say, at the moment, there is nothing on the front burner related to trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 slamming the penalty box door isnt close to qualifying for this.No, but the laundry list of other things is. He's not the victim here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siddious Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 IMO this would be the best case scenario. No, he's not a great player but he's probably the best you could hope for in this debacle. Just looked at his stats and never realized he was such a poor performer. Question is.. can he win faceoffs? To be frank i'd be happy with a 3rd rounder for deangelo with salary retained- i still find it bizarre that anyone would trade for him when they could have had him for free.

He's been a historically decent faceoff guy - wins more than he loses for sure - but he's played more wing than C these last few years. He wants to play C, and he wants a top 6/9 spot from what I gather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they sit Strome and let Chytil continue to play 3C then fine. But you know... Quinn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they sit Strome and let Chytil continue to play 3C then fine. But you know... Quinn. I think that even if he ends up in our top 9, he'll have more of a 2nd line like role. He's currently playing mostly on a checking unit with Milan Lucic and Mikael Backlund. Occasionally they get Frolik or Mangiapane or Derek Ryan. What will he get here - figure Lafreniere or Kreider and PDG or Kravtsov? Big upgrades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor stats but he's never really been given a chance from what I can gather. He plays multiple positions though and also plays a heavy game. He was a menace in the playoffs this past summer. I think he'd fit in really well TBH. Again, he's not a star player and hopefully no one expects him to be one. He could easily find himself on the 4th line when Chytil comes back. But, if you can get a player like that for Tony, I think it's worth it. He's way more valuable than a 3rd or 2nd. And he's worth retaining salary for. But that's just my opinion based on the Rangers needs and the fact that Tony is a dead man walking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted February 4, 2021 Author Share Posted February 4, 2021 Not the cleanest sheet here but you get the idea. Not great league wide FO numbers but better than what we're getting that's for sure. Year Team FO% 1 2020-21 CGY 44.4% 2 2019-20 CGY 51.7% 3 2018-19 CGY 55.6% 4 2017-18 CGY 54.3% 5 2016-17 CGY 46.1% 6 2015-16 CGY 46.1% 7 2014-15 CGY 16.7% more detail here: https://www.puckbase.com/stats/faceoff-percentage?player=sam-bennett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirtyONE Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Anything near 50% would be a vast improvement on this team: 1 Mika Zibanejad NYR 41.2% 34 9 3.8 14 20 2 Ryan Strome NYR 36.4% 33 9 3.7 12 21 3 Brett Howden NYR 47.8% 23 9 2.6 11 12 4 Filip Chytil NYR 53.3% 15 5 3.0 8 7 5 Kevin Rooney NYR 42.9% 14 7 2.0 6 8 lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunny Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Deangelo received Norris votes. Hajek was -5 in ten games in a eastern European semi pro league, but don't stop getting those digs in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
