Slobberknocker Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 (edited) We need a guy a big body banger on the 4th line. plenty of assets in the pocket who would you go get. I really think Gallant has to roll four lines Edited February 11, 2023 by Slobberknocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valriera Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Our fourth line is great. Let’s be honest here, the lineup is now as good as any in the league. There’s no excuse this year for not going all the way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieNextel305 Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 I like Brooks idea with Tanner Jeannot. But I don’t know what they would be looking to get back to Nashville for him. Ideally, I would love to see the Rangers add a 4C who could be relied upon to take a big defensive faceoff. But I’d have to see what was available.

And yet it can still easily be upgraded. get me a center who can also play wing. Is fast and forechecks hard with some physicality. Replace alphabet soup for a playoff run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Is it too crazy to think that maybe we already have a 4C in Goodrow? He's a damn good faceoff guy, that can play that role perfectly. I'd feel pretty confident with him at 4C. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 I would too for the time being, but he's a guy who's contract might have to get dealt in order to re-sign some of our own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynn Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 (edited) I like Bjugstad. Not a great draw guy, but has a nice set of hands and can kill penalties Edited February 13, 2023 by Flynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers apparently like him on the wing more than at center per Staple, I believe, so it makes a ton of sense to get another C. Plus, more than one C on your fourth line is a good thing, like when they used to have Dom Moore. You can use whomever on faceoffs and then immediately switch positions as needed, for example. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Centers are more versatile like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why, much as I like Motte, I don't think he's really that great of a solution for what they need. The idea should be to get another Goodrow (at rock bottom pricing). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keirik Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Just looking at Arizona’s team. I’m wondering if there is a swap to be had. They do have a young guy that I like. Jack McBain. Big, strong, physical center. 3rd rounder but I think he has the size and potential to be a nice little under the radar find. Boston College alumni so he fits in here. RFA at years end with team control. Might even be able to squeeze out a pick along with him since Krav is a 1st rounder. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have 4th liners that make up a solid 4th line already. They just use 2 of them in the top 9. They need a top 9 RW that can flip to center in a pinch. Vesey- Goodrow- Gauthier is a kick ass 4th line. Get me Domi . Heck get me Domi AND Motte. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, GG apparently likes Goodrow on the wing: Quote The Rangers have second-round picks this year and next, but that would be a high price to pay for any of the above-mentioned three players. Tyler Motte, a deadline addition last year, would still be of interest but he’s primarily a winger. Goodrow works at center, but the Rangers coaching staff seems to like him better on the wing with the ability to move him around in-game if needed. https://theathletic.com/4188080/2023/02/13/new-york-rangers-kravtsov-nhl-trade-deadline/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m with you here. I think they can and probably should go another real top 9 option. Vesey is a nice story, but putting your eggs that basket is very risky. He could revet back to his career standard of play at any moment. We are talking 6 months removed from the guy barely getting a PTO contract from anyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
