The answer is way too much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This season certainly went all kinds of sideways, but there was a lot of hype about this team last summer. I suppose that’s something of an effort. I’m probably just annoyed that we are perpetually sitting under the cap on a huge stack of money we never spend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always depends on what your team look like and what your situation is. If you're a team stacked like Tampa or Colorado and usually finish in the top of the rankings and is "going for it". You may be able to spare a first round pick, a player and a top prospect. But you're still taking a step back in term of depth trading many players that would be part of your future for 1 guy. You obviously always inquirer no matter what. Historically some trades made no sense but someone got a crazy deal out of it so 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One team is on the way up and the other isn't. One has a highly touted goalie, a near-MVP, great young prospects, etc. You can make fun of the "hustle and bustle" all you like, but if we're being honest, they are a WAY better situation than we are right now. Huh? We aren’t on the way up? We have one of the best U23 player pools in the league including TWO first overall picks. The end product is obviously not there yet but to say we aren’t on the up is off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devlman Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 What a disgraceful franchise the Rags are. Queenie’s got one year left, 38 years old spent his entire career carrying your lame ass teams and you can’t let him finish the last year and go out with class? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus he was all-in to go through the rebuild with them when he was asked about it and had the option to opt-out while he had time, he decided to stick with them and be loyal and then they threw him away. How can they KEEP doing this constantly with their players they throw all the money at but players keep going there? At the same time, we can at least appreciate that they didn't convince him to "retire". Then they would of regained that full 8.5m on the cap. And overall good for him. He's still going to get that money. Plus he'll be signing another contract... somewhere. So he'll endup making more money and getting paid from a team he's not even playing for anymore Edited September 30, 2020 by SterioDesign 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Lundqvist is not getting ALL of that money, but def a nice chunk of it: https://www.capfriendly.com/teams/rangers Yeah, he's obviously meant a lot to the Rangers and spent his entire prime there and will make it to the HHOF (even with no rings)...but if the end goal is trying to get better, and they have younger and more capable goalies on hand (which they clearly do)...this is simply the right move, even if it seems to be cold. He's 38 years old and he's now four seasons removed from his prime. Almost $13 million in dead cap space for the Rangers whenever the new season begins. They actually do have a lot of cap space even with the dead money, but also need to sign a lot of guys too...not that many players currently under contract. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aitchmack Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Looks like there'll be a lot of goalies on the market this year. As long as the rumour about Lundqvist signing for the Devils turns out to be just that, a rumour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lundqvist with something left in the tank would be hard enough to take as a Devil...I sure as hell don't want anything to do with the "Barely on Fumes" version of Henrik. His last two seasons have not been good. Edited September 30, 2020 by Colorado Rockies 1976 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Definitely not after a buyout. If they wanted to give us an asset to take him and his ridiculous cap hit for a year, maybe I might consider that. But I would hate myself for doing so.
