siddious Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 (edited) its been a slow day and it already seems like this off season has been 3 months long so lets play a game. -You can only choose 10 predictions of all the available options. -You can choose the same prediction multiple times with different parties involved if the prediction is open ended (i.e. Player gets traded: laf & Player gets traded: kakko) -Each prediction is assigned points based on how likely it is to happen -You cannot get partial points for a half correct answer (i.e. Rangers hire a coach- you guess the person wrong) -Your prediction has to be in before it happens Points get tallied up right before training camp- well do a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place ranking.

BrooksBurner Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 1) Rangers hire Quenneville as HC: 3 points (I don't think it's a coincidence he's meeting with Bettman) 2) Guess the week a new HC is announced (i.e. second week of june): 5 points (if you also guess the coach correctly with your other pick ill add an extra point) Guess: The week starting June 18th. 3) Name any free agent the rangers sign (no current pending RFA/UFAS): 4 points Guess: Jonathan Toews. 4) Choose your own prediction: 1 point Guess: Kane re-signs, very cheap just to re-unite with Q and Toews. 5) Barclay Goodrow gets traded: 1 point (Toews is the 4C, don't need Goody, and need his cap space) 6) Name a team we trade with (any trade): 1 point Guess: Seattle (Goodrow) 7) Motte is re-signed but you have to guess the term or the AAV correctly: 2 points Guess: 2 years (1.2M AAV) 8) Guess the exact player the rangers draft with their first pick: 6 points Guess: Ethan Gauthier, RW - for the lolz 9) Guess the first name of the medical trainer the rangers hire: 10 points Guess: John 10) Rangers draft a goalie in one of the first 3 rounds: 3 points 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LindG1000 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 8 minutes ago, BrooksBurner said: Who you thinking on the buyout pick? Goodrow? I'm playing the numbers here more than anything. We have a long history of buying out players and 10 points for a buyout prediction feels like a somewhat against-the-gran pick that could pay off nicely to win this contest. If anyone's getting bought out, though, Goodrow's a candidate. He's a cap credit (albeit a small one) for two years, then a near-trivial hit for every season through 2030-31 except 2026-27 (where he hits at marginally over his current hit). I just find it hard to think that Goodrow's not worth a third or so in a trade as it stands, and I see no reason to buy him specifically out unless I'm wrong about his valuation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
