Why the Strome trade?

Not good can’t put a puck in a empty net.

Get off Twitter.

pretty sure they're trolling. either way they're an idiot

Lol mad much

Look in the mirror buddy

Don't know or care what's being said on Twitter...but the reality is that with the contracts which have been given out, there will be no money to extend Strome. Again- not sure what nonsense is being batted around on Twitter...but Strome has been a pretty good player for NYR. Maybe one of the teams that "lost out" in the Eichel pursuit- yet still needs a mid 6 C is interested. But a single 2nd (although the pick should be top 50 in a deep draft) is a bit light. Late 1st + 4th or 2nd and a 3rd is what he should bring back.

Don’t get me wrong I don’t hate strome I just don’t think that panarin and strome are the play anymore. And you’re probably gunna call me crazy but panarin is overpaid and doesn’t play a complete game he only plays defense when he feels like it and is a slow skater most of the time

Agree with most of that...IMO Strome is a "high end" 3C...which in itself has value- but only if he can be paid as a 3C. NYR are not going to be able to pay him what his #'s warrant...so they have to move him or lose him for nothing.

As far as Panarin being over paid- he was worth the money last year. To start this year even though he is a PPG player- something is definitely off...but he's not the only one. So far this year the team looks slow- always a step behind in chasing the play...really only Shesty and Fox have looked good. But with a new coach and new system- have to be patient. Hopefully when the players settle into Gallant's system things will start to click a little better...outlet passes will start hitting the tape, anticipation will put players in a position to make plays, etc.- and if this happens the players that look slow right now will look a lot quicker. But patience is not a "NY thing"...remember years ago the Jets owner hired Rich Kotite because "I want to win...and I want to win now!"...then they went 1-15. LOL

I’m well aware that Strome will be tough to bring back. My main point is that this Rangers ACGM doesn’t pick a side properly. If you’re going to buy Ryan Getzlaf, you’re not going to sell Ryan Strome. There’s no logic in doing BOTH at one trade deadline.

Kaapo Kakko is the one who shouldn’t be playing with Artemi Panarin to me. They’re not elevating each others’ games and have zero chemistry compared to Strome+Panarin. We all saw Panarin lag a bit while Ryan Strome is on covid protocol.

I’m pretty sure it’s just a kid.

might be good for the rangers to let kakko go back to europe for a bit, like they're unintentionally doing with kravtsov. let him find his confidence and then bring him back. im really hoping we can get kravtsov back cause he's looking really good in the khl right now.
