Has anyone actually confirmed the lightning pick? I’ve seen what looked like some educated guesses but I don’t think anyone confirmed it’s gourde
this. Bowman pulling off the best move of the offseason only to follow it up by giving away a top 15 draft pick to protect Zadorov would be amazing comedy.
A lot, no. But he makes money. He pays himself as a “consultant” to the team, wnd a significant amount at that. What a fucking scam.
Larry Brooks reporting the Rangers could be trading Strome for Giordano (salary retained). Would necessitate a major move for a center for the Rangers.
“This guy here hasn’t played a ton of NHL games just yet, but you hope he’s going to really turn into, uh, something. And I think it might happen sooner rather than later.”
They’re going to be leaving themselves a shit ton of cap space after this. Gonna be an interesting offseason for sure.
i am not a huge strome fan but that seems like a move that the rangers should not make at this point in their trajectory
It would necessitate a major move for a center thereafter. And Giordano is actually exactly what they need on D. A ton of cap space for a single year and need a veteran stop gap before a few youngsters are ready.
