[Rumour] Eric Staal, Dominic Moore and Dan Boyle likely to hit free agency


Recommended Posts

The Rangers have yet to begin talks with pending restricted free agents Chris Kreider, J.T. Miller, Kevin Hayes and Dylan McIlrath — all of whom have salary arbitration rights — or with pending unrestricted free agents Keith Yandle and Viktor Stalberg. The club is not expected to pursue a deal with deadline rental acquisition Eric Staal or with fellow pending free agents Dominic Moore and Dan Boyle.

Dan Boyle to Edmonton? Wouldn't be a bad move for the Oilers to have a proven veteran defensemen who's won it all.

Over-the-hill and grumpy. He'll want to go to a warmer-weather, smaller market team. SJ, TB, FLA. 

 

I'd say Dom Moore is the most valuable of all the guys on that list.

I dunno. Eric Staal would be interesting for the right deal (2-3 years, 4-5M per) if nothing more than to help with draws and some of the heavy lifting. Buys time for the kids, would let WD properly deploy Henrik.

 

however this is massively a long shot and sort of stupid the more I think about it.

They need someone who can still skate with their young guns.  The cold weather would be even worse for Dan's arthritis.

 

I LOL'd at DBTR's response ^^  :lol:  Its on the mark. 

 

Kris Russell would help them?  He wouldn't have to block so many shots with Reinhart, Nurse and Klefbom all maturing into players. And would add some speed & puck skills...

I'll pass on all of them. All three are well past their best before dates. The only one I'd consider would be Moore, but he's Steve's brother so.... I thought Boyle retired already though? Or is he on the fence about it?
