Long live the King Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 Cup winner. 34 goals and 58 points in 58 playoff games. Pens needs to start acquiring assets with all these 35+ contracts they signed. They're gonna go downhill quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long live the King Posted November 10 Author Share Posted November 10 Just now, RJWantsTheCup said: I can't see the Pens trading Guentzel to us unless we severely over pay for him. I think this gets over blown. Are they really rivals? It's a pure rental. What difference does it make to them? It's not like they're trading a young guy in their division they'll have to see for a decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they resign him he's in his mid 30s by the time all these 35+ contracts are gone. He's by far their best chance to gain quality futures.

But they didn't. So here they're are hoping to at best fight for a wild card spot. When they don't get it done Guentzel is a goner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valriera Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 Way too early because as-is, we need a first line RW capable of doing anything, but that's not necessarily true if Kreider and Mika get broken up. We just don't know enough about what happens to the team in that currently likely event. Outside of that I'd honestly change nothing unless something happens to the roster. I might consider someone a littler faster than Bonino for the fourth line in matchups where it might be necessary (think MTL if that ever happens) who can still win faceoffs and play D. The team is deep everywhere on the ice except RW, so I suspect we'll make a deal there but exactly which deal is too early to tell, imo. Kane on wheeler's deal cheap for a year may be what we do.

Yes. Way too early. It's in the title. Krieder-Zib-Guentzel would be fantastic. Guentzel in Trocheck's spot on PP1 would also be lethal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 Elias Lindholm would be my top target currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Br4d Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 It would be so nice to give the trade deadline a pass this season. No contortions to manage the cap. No picks spent to bring in somebody we can't possibly keep past June. Call up Othmann. Move Cuylle up the lineup. The Rangers have to have enough forwards this year even if Wheeler is gone by Spring. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guentzel in Trocheck's spot on PP1 would also be lethal. The powerplay is already lethal, I don't know that I would make that move. For all we know, Zibanejad goes on one of his heaters and Kakko winds up being a good fit who can feed him the puck. I just don't see many gaps in the team atm that would be worth a trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 Guentzel is a LW. Would rather just try and get Tarasenko back. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash or Czech Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 (edited) Anthony Duclair, please. (CapFriendly has him as playing both wings) Edited November 10 by Cash or Czech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieNextel305 Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 (edited) I’m curious to see what happens with Chytil. This was/is his 4th concussion. It’s been quiet with him. Hell, it hasn’t even be confirmed that it was a concussion if I’m not mistaken; it’s just the rumored expectation, which would make sense given to quietness. But if, IF Chytil is super banged up out of all of this, we might be looking for a 2 or 3C. I hate the fact that Chytil is so fragile, but we need to be prepared incase this is long term.

I wanted him back so bad over the summer, but I knew we had no cap space to make it work. The rental on him shouldn't be terrible. Maybe get him for a 4th rounder?

I just don't see many gaps in the team atm that would be worth a trade RW is definitely a gap. I also wouldn’t bank on Chytil remaining healthy anymore. A player with experience on the wing and at C is an ideal pick up. Enter Lindholm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really thought they had something going with Tarasenko last year and that Kane was almost a distraction. Would love to see Tarasenko back - what would it take to snag him from Ottawa? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 Definitely should have interest in some center and RW depth. I'm a sucker for Jason Zucker, whom I believe can play RW. As a rental and with retention, I can't see Arizona getting much for him. Guys a banger with a nose for the net. Type of guy you want more of, going into the playoffs. I'm hoping Florida stumbles and nose dives. Maybe they break up the band. Sam Bennet is a guy the Rangers could use in many ways all over this lineup. I'd offer Chytil straight up. And I really like Chytil. But Bennet... Ooph do the Rangers need more players like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted Bennett here 3+ years ago when Calgary was clearly going to move on from him and Florida got him for pennies on the dollar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
