I'd absolutely do this from the Rangers perspective

I'd do this for sure. I'd even try to move up in the draft and get a center as we are essentially desperate at this point.

Strome won't accept. He wants 5mil AAV/long-term deal and Motte I think can be cheaper for longer-term deal but I like it

Where on earth do you get off thinking Edmonton is in the market to take cap dumps??

I think it's more about their desperation for a goalie + relative need for D

That doesn't compute. They already have 2 better goalies signed for next year, why would they pay anything for Georgiev? And their defense took them to the final 4 this year even though their #1 guy was playing through a core muscle injury. What attraction is Rangers #7 defenseman?

Neither argument holds any water. It's a stupid trade that no contender would make.

God everyone on this forum is so angry lmao

If you espouse terrible ideas in public you're going to be challenged. If you don't like it, learn from it.

I understand and am willing to accept criticism. If you had allowed for a conversation, I was going to say that's a good point about the defense, I just think the D depth is thin and I'm not so sure it's sustainable. Adding a potential top 4 D and a bottom pair veteran D could be worth a look.

On the other hand, the goaltending situation is terrible with Smith and Koskinen gone and although Georgiev had a bad year as a backup, I would bet on him as a starter over the scraps Edmonton has in the system.

What I won't accept however is being disrespected. If you're going to tell me what I need to learn, then you should learn how to properly communicate criticism without coming off like you're having a temper tantrum. It's embarrassing.

Your opinions on Edmonton's players are terribly ill informed. You should be embarrassed that you're making statements in public about things you know nothing about.

Have a great day.

You're getting angry at someone for having an opinion on a hockey forum. Someone who just admitted you made a valid point about hockey and explained their reasoning for their opinion which - get this - is okay for you to disagree with.

Hope you find some happiness today.
