Pete Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 I'm now expecting a hold out that ends with Drury going Grachev... "I tried to trade him for a year. No one wanted him." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bieser Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 What could be the issue? Isn't there a fixed amount left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Does he actually think he's worth more than that rumored amount? If so.....LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) He's gonna sit out this season, isn't he??? This kid best get ink on a contract fast, and then get his ass in shape for the season! Edited August 1, 2023 by Ozzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindG1000 Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Imagine he's holding out for more money? I can't imagine a funnier scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Br4d Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 He's probably holding out for a trade but since he has no leverage he's going to let the Rangers figure it out for themselves. He's said a couple of times that he's fine being a Ranger for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted August 2, 2023 Author Share Posted August 2, 2023 I honestly don't care if/when he signs. I've never seen a more unimpressive first overall pick in my life and I've been watching this sport for 30 fucking years. He makes Patrick Stefan look like Pavel Datsyuk.

Stefan just had injury issues. Had a couple of concussions back in the IHL in the 2 seasons before he got drafted I believe and Atlanta foolishly the one thing you can never do which is ignore the medical side. He wasn’t a bad player. Very skilled in fact. Just was damaged goods. But god- what a terrible draft class that was. Arguably the worst ever. And that’s saying something as there were some real clunkers back in the mid-to-late 90’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash or Czech Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Personally I'm wondering if Drury is trying to trade him and let the new team negotiate a contract that'll fit within their cap constraints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if that was going to happen, it was likely to happen by now, no? Not doubting your opinion. Cause I think it’s a valid possibility, even if unlikely. Just curious as to why you feel that way when the press has said the opposite and Drury said they were committed to him and to trade him hurts Drury’s efficacy.

Probably waiting until all the arbitration hearings are over? Or, they just aren't in a rush to sign a deal. Kakko signed his bridge deal July 28th. Chytil on July 29th. We're only 4 days after that.

Art20c Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Honestly I don’t think he is tradable in the sense of getting something even remotely close to what we wasted on him. Nobody will give us bottom first round pick for him let alone top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially at the height of the offseason where players and everyone go away, take vacation, work lighter schedules, etc. I don’t think there’s really anything there to make of or be concerned about.

Cash or Czech Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 (edited) He hasn't posted on Instagram since July 3rd so hopefully he's too busy in the gym and at the rink to post pics or sign contracts.

Drew a Penalty Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 We're really beyond the point of a trade making any sense at this point. They're negotiating over pennies and decimals because that's all there is to work out on this contract. It'll be resolved by or during camp.

Clearly his true weaknesses are poutine and hot French-Canadian tramps. And who can blame him for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
