They take allot of low shots off the pads, those are tougher to control. Have to keep an eye on it as the Rangers have a chance to go on a run here with games against Buffalo and two with Philly coming up before another two with Washington. This Sabres game scare me. This one and the back to back games next week. Everyone has been kicking their butt and sooner or later that dog is going to turn around and bite someone. Historically the Rangers underperform against them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Eichell plays, won't he be motivated to show JD that he's worth the price to trade for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EM31 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 9 hours ago, BROOKLYN JET said: He's hurt right now, but reports are that the only way Buffalo trades him before the off season is to the Rangers. We had the best offer on the table for him last year, but Buffalo didn't pull the trigger. https://www.amny.com/sports/rangers-jack-eichel-trade-rumors-continue-to-gain-traction/ According to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, the general consensus, for now, is that the Sabres wouldn’t trade the 24-year-old until the offseason — unless it’s the Rangers. I would love to get Eichel here but I doubt that Buffalo would do the deal for just Miller or just Kakko. Kapo simply has not shown enough to this point and while Miller may end up as a foundational blue line piece for a decade i just don't think you can sell that kind of deal to the Buffalo fan base. A top-5 NHL player for a young physical defenseman? Miller is really good but Scott Stevens he ain't. I think they would ask for Kakko AND Fox and maybe someone else and I don't want to include Fox in a trade for anyone in the league at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustEndTheSuffering Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Buf is obviously going to ask for a big return in a trade for Eichel and I'm not sure I'm willing to dump the necessary pieces. Trading for him is a win now move and we're not quite there. Kakko specifically is not a player I want to give up on yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In last year's negations the Rangers made it clear they were not willing to move Fox or Kakko. I'm not sure Buffalo would want Kappo now, his development seems to be hampered by the "pandemic." Buffalo needs a goalie, perhaps a package including Georgie, DeAngelo & Kravtsov can get it done, if they don't want Tony D, then either Nils Lundkvist or Braden Schneider would have to go, but I would hope to keep those guys. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a pretty young and deep blue line talent pool. Even assuming D'Angelo is gone. If it helps to land Eichel I might be in Favor of freeing up any of our young defenseman not named Fox. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
