Dreger Rangers Showing Interest in Jonathan Drouin; Re-Signs with Avs

[Phil]

I get it.. can never have enough LW's in the system

Jesus Fucking Christ, Drury…

 

This ain’t it, bro. This ain’t it for a team looking to win a Stanley Cup.

This is not the move .....

[RichieNextel305]

Mercogliano said we may save space and assets for trades either now or at the deadline.

 

We cannot be taken seriously as a Stanley Cup contender if we, yet again, walk into the season without a viable top-line RW. This has been a glaring hole for more than a calendar year now, and Drury still cannot figure out a way to fill it. I’m not saying I don’t trust the guy. But this has been a glaring hole and just has not been filled.

 

Is he gun shy because of the way the Kane/Tarasenko situation unfolded?

 

Whatever it is, Jonathan Drouin ain’t it.

 

This ain’t looking too good.

Tarasenko was good until Kane got here and it put too many cooks in the kitchen. One or the other was the right play.

 

I'm all for Tarasenko tour #2. Go get him Dru!

[RichieNextel305]

At this point, maybe Trouba will be our 1RW.

[Cash or Czech]

I feel like Drury runs a pretty tight ship and leaks are few and far between. Including us is probably agent-speak to drive Drouin's price up.

[BlairBettsBlocksEverything]

If Drouin is our biggest add we will have fallen behind some of the other top teams in the east who are getting better

 

with that said he's not an awful player to at least keep an eye on. wouldn't be my top choice but middle 6 scoring is never a bad thing and colorado revived his career a bit, hopefully it carries over. would not commit long years to him though

If only we had a reliable guy like a Pavel Buchnevich to anchor that top RW spot

Anyone have thoughts on Tarasenko redux?

 

I would do 2 years at 5.5 million w/o blinking; wonder if he is worth more on the open market?
