32EBoozer Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 In a quest to add playoff experience and a reliable forward who can change the dynamic of their lineup, the Rangers may have gotten both in Barclay Goodrow. Now they’ll just have to keep him. The Blueshirts acquired the 28-year-old Goodrow, who is set to become an unrestricted free agent after winning his second straight Stanley Cup with the Lightning. The move was a last-minute trade that sent their 2022 seventh-round pick to Tampa Bay on Saturday before the NHL roster freeze period ahead of Wednesday’s expansion draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BROOKLYN JET Posted July 18, 2021 Author Share Posted July 18, 2021 #NYR protection list for the #Seakraken expansion draft: Forwards: Panarin, Zibanejad, Kreider, Buchnevich, Strome, Chytil, Rooney Defense: Trouba, Lindgren, Hajek Goalie: Georgiev Notable exposures: Goodrow, Gauthier, Blackwell, Smith, Bitetto, Kinkaid, DeAngelo, PDG Not sure why Roons is protected over Goodrow, Gauthier and Blackwell, but I would imagine one of them is gone. Hopefully we get lucky and the Kraken take DeAngelo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EM31 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Hopefully the NHL did not screw up the expansion draft this time around. The rules last time made it too easy for the new team to become a contender in their first season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We cannot buy our way to a cup and there is a limit to the number of these kinds of contracts that any one team can take on or Tampa Bay would have simply resigned him themselves.

The flip side of this may be that we cannot afford to re-up all of our own guys like Buchnevich for example.

Yes they are in a win now mode, they went after the guy they wanted and got a deal done. Definitely a steep price to pay, and it's a 6 year deal too, so he'll be on the wrong side of 30 for the half of that contract . He's a good player, but it's always better to just draft the next guy like him, then to pay thru the nose in free agency. Buuch earned his payday and is in negotiations, but he may have to give a hometown discount if he wants to remain a Ranger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does change the dynamic a bit where Rangers players in the past would head south to play in Tampa. Finally one comes the other way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't lie I was mad jealous watching Zach Wilson and our Jets rooting for the Islanders during the playoffs ? I think the "we are rebuilding with a bunch of kids" card is a thing of that past. Two reasons to feel good about a playoff run this year. Make that three reasons. 1) I think the Rangers were disadvantaged to be in the extremely strong "East" division which was manufactured to keep COVID somewhat under control. They should do better being in the top-8 when they revert to a normal schedule 2) We were the youngest team in the NHL last year I think and the lids will have an additional year of NHL experience under their belts. 3) I like the change at head coach. Actually without a painfully slow start we might have even made it in last year. Over the last half of the season the Rangers record was very competitive with the teams that did make it it. I think we would have been killed if we did make it in but still there are plenty of reasons to think the team should be better this year.

Even though I am still expecting big things from Alexis and Kaapo this year, I am really excited to see what Kravtsov can do in a full season. Miller has already arrived as far as I am concerned. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
