I always love what the NHL picks and chooses to enforce. The Rangers are literally dressing players but not playing them just because they dont want to call anyone up to ruin their theoretical cap space for a player not even on their roster yet. Thats totally okay. Trading for a LTIR player? STRAIGHT TO JAIL!
So didn’t give up much. I think he’ll be a good fit so I’m good with it. Hopefully another move in store since this one was so cheap.
Worst case he’s an upgrade on one of Noesen/Stepan/Stastny on the fourth line and brings some size to the table, best obviously is that his WJC connection with Aho somehow gets something out of him that playing with McDavid couldn’t.
I might be an oldie by the time the team is sold and no one will be able to go outside because it’s 500 degrees but it’ll still be a decent day
It’s not just Miller, they also have many other bad deals, technically lol at least miller is a good player compared to the others haha
Who on earth is dumb enough to take on those bad deals? If you’re gonna take on a long term commitment you might as well give the Shorks a call about Karlsson
I really want Parayko to come out of his shell and be the D man he can/should be (ala Walman) but I don't think it will happen in STL, unfortunately. BTW, JR and Strickland both saying he hasn't been contacted yet about waiving it.
I could see JP being Carolina's Lehkonen from last year's playoffs. It's always those moves that pay off.
