Raanta isn't a backup. He is/was the same as a Martin Jones, Scott Darling who once given a chance will probably be a great starter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Blight Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 4 minutes ago, HKSR said: If I'm reading it right, NYR currently has 20M in cap space??? They have more than enough to bolster their roster still. Maybe 7th OA for Tanev isn't outta the question? Then they sign Shattenkirk, and still have cap left over. They only have 17 players of their 23 man roster signed though. They have a couple of RFA's that will get raises, Shattenkirk will likely get around $7M, so adding Tanev's $4.5M would make their cap a lot tighter than it would currently appear.

There aren't just rumors. Kid racially abused his own teammate and violated team policy regarding derogatory racist, sexist and homophobic language on more than one occasion. I hope he has matured since then but considering he finds himself on his third team already doesn't give me much hope. https://sports.yahoo.com/news/sarnia-s-anthony-deangelo-suspended-for-slur-directed-at-teammate-232527684.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aircool Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 For people wondering what is going on today. The NHL only has trades on 2 days every year. Draft day & Deadline day. With sometimes major but pretty much nothing resembling a consistent quantity of trades on any other particular day or time frame. This is why the NHL has fast become one of the most boring leagues in North America. Nothing to keep you involved in the league and players outside of the games. So easy to fix, but they won't.

And to eliminate the teams they play for, judge a goalie by their save percentage. Markstrom is a fringe starter while Raanta actually is an NHL calibre starter. Quit being a homer.

Canada Hockey Place Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Bizarro. ARZ is actually spending money to win now. That's actually kind of cool to see. Basically moved down from #7 to #23 to upgrade from 30yo left hand C Hanzal to 27yo right hand C Stepan. With a cap hit exceeding the salary for 3 more seasons. + Raanta who is 47-23 in 92GP playing back-up to Lundqvist. Good pieces for ARZ. NYR get #7 + $6m extra to sign someone. Probably Shattenkirk.
