I just see him as a decent option if they have to pivot away from Meier. Of course. I see a lot of options. post was about first round pick. Btw I would be ok to trade for Hayes 1st round pick, if philly are ready to retain. Edited February 24, 2023 by Guadana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hathaway is great to stick on your fourth line in the playoffs and Orlov is a good defenseman, like you said. If Washington is waving the white flag, does Fitz need to check on Tom Wilson's availability? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t seen him play since his injury but 5 points in 10 games isn’t bad for a guy who is there for muscle.

Fansinz88 Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 I’d at least call on tom Wilson. Signed through next season I believe for reasonable cap hit. He’d be perfect to piss the rangers off and rag doll sliced bread again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagknife Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 As I’m driving to work, what I’ve been thinking about LAT (life after timo): If we are destined for the rangers first round, i want guys in here that will hit and punish them and annoy the living sh!t out of them like 2012. We wore them down and got tertiary scoring from our bottom 6, specifically the CBGB line. Currently, while absolutely ice cold, McLeod and Bastian at least played hard and with grit. We need a replacement for Wood, but I doubt Fitz will do what’s necessary there. But we 100% need another big body in the bottom lines. We also need another defender to supplement Bahl and put Smith in his rightful spot of being a healthy scratch and occasional fill in. Luke and or Nemec are not the size guys we need for this nor should we ask that of them. They have specific roles they’ll fill when their time comes. But Tarasenko is fragile and the “Kid Line” are mental midgets. We need to hit them hard, early and often, but we don’t have the complimentary players to do it right now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree about the size part and how a big body can and will help us , I'm just not sure how we can address that and who's available to help. I do also think, at this time, we are equally as fast and as skilled, if not more so, than the Rags. They're definitely fast and have a lot of weapons, especially with the additions of Tarasenko and Orlov, but there's a very good chance if we meet them in any round, that it will come down to a combination of goaltending and coaching. Matching Shesterkin will be tough, but Vanacek has been great all season so I'm confident he can do it. So a key difference maker may in fact be how Ruff has the guys playing. We've been at our best this season when we've played responsible hockey; sound defense, limited turnovers, and few penalties. We can do that without adding a big body, which I'm ok with if the deal isn't right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fansinz88 Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Tom Wilson will be immediately in the rangers heads without playing them again for a month. And definitely in a playoff series. We would hold the edge. Maybe Tom Wilson could help get wood back to what he was as well?? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocking. Also shocking the Rangers go for the shiniest toy, even if that's not necessarily what they really need. Let 'em have Kane. Sucks for the Blackhawks in that it's either find a way to send him off to the Rangers or potentially lose him for nothing, but can't say that's an organization that I have much sympathy for. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson is in the heads of the rangers plus other teams. He took a shot off his ankle that hurts. But he’s not out that long. Plus coming off ACL his price tag wouldn’t be that high I assume. Not sure if Washington is even taking calls on him. But we should keep calling. And I believe he’d wave a no trade to come here if we are on it. Washington is mailing it in. We are in the upswing. And he’s only 29 I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
