There hasn't been a peep regarding the Rangers othe than Klein's "farewell." They have some real NHL players exposed, and Grabner and Raanta definitely have trade value. I wonder if the front office has just been really quiet and worked out a deal?

https://twitter.com/reporterchris/status/877211332071882752 So assuming some deals didn't fall apart, we have Anaheim, Columbus, NY Islanders and Tampa with trades. Plus at least two mystery teams.

I thought Brooks said the rangers do not have any deals worked out with Vegas, and it would seem that if anyone would know it would be him. But, Brooks is also a dumbass

But, Brooks is also a dumbass I might've missed that. I suppose with Grabner/Raanta/Fast/Lindberg/Klein(?) it would have cost a fair amount (i.e. a 1st+) to protect them, and they'd rather keep that part of the roster together rather than start shifting pieces and lose a good player anyway. Let's just hope the Knights don't pick Grabner and then send his cheap contract to Chicago for Kruger/TVR/picks.

Are the Golden Knights (still dumbest team name in NHL) going to take MAF? I'll feel real bad for him if they do.

Hopefully Enstrom's NMC makes him an unpalatable choice for Vegas as they won't be able to easily flip him. I'd much rather lose Dano than Enstrom even if Dano is a decent middle 6 forward

I wouldn't be surprised if Chevy throws a late round pick to GMGM to ensure that Enstrom doesn't get picked. Or maybe he tries to get a new defenseman from Vegas.

kalensc posted:The nascent fanbase of an expansion franchise in a "foreign" sport will only have 2 (max 3) years to grow before a historic NFL team with a playoff-caliber roster rolls into town. Sure, tickets may sell regardless due to casino promos and curious tourists, but a pro team needs a core loyal fanbase for the long haul. People who live here don't make enough money to support pro sports. Education metrics are very low, advanced job prospects are low because good jobs follow good schools. The largest two industries expected to continue growth are the service industry and nursing care. The Raiders and Knights join Cirque Du Soleil and the Backstreet Boys in "things competing for your vacation dollar."

Lessail posted:Could you perhaps say that Vegas is the next Detroit? No, because Vegas is better racially integrated and has been proactive in gentrifying it's downtown before the rot expanded. Also a lot of wealthy and well to do people live in the metro a pro sports team considers "Detroit", they just moved away to suburbs and exurbs in a massive act of white flight. There are no cities an hour out of the Vegas valley for people to move to. You're basically three hours of driving away from anywhere. pizza valentine posted:I'm not sure what point you're really trying to make here, but "people who live here don't make enough money to support pro sports" seems like a wild exaggeration. It's an exaggeration but it's not wild. Costs of living are low and salaries match that appropriately. I realize there's some guys making six figures promoting nightclubs, but they're the exemption and not the rule. But I think the team will do fine given what we've seen in Phoenix.

Pretty much my hot take on it as well. Name and logo are stupid. Other than that I guess it's neat. The red is a surprisingly nice touch.

Why do people think Theodore is better than Manson? Manson is really good statistically and they should honestly just select him unless they are getting a haul of picks back.
