FUCKIN FINALLY!!!! LET’S GO!!!!!!
Shame about the conditional 1st.
Edit: its a 1st in 2024 or 2025.
I fucken love this trade now. Lets goooooo!!!!!!!!
Drury didn’t want to give up a 1st, so I imagine the condition on that 2nd has to be winning the cup lol
Would imagine the 2nd condition is a SCF appearance
This is objectively a great deal if true
I wonder what the condition is. If we win the Cup, I’m fine with it being a first.
That’s fine, if we win the cup I’ll personally send them 75 firsts
Another Drury deadline masterclass
If the condition is we win the cup take that first and have a splendid day.
Well now that he’s here I gotta root for it. Let’s go 88
lmfao Drury loves using conditional picks so much
great leverage by Drury of, well, leverage itself. most happy that Jones is not included in the deal.
credit where credit’s due: this is textbook execution
LFG
Guess this is the price for not giving up prospects like Jones. If we win the cup, you deal with it…

It’s finally over.
Even if it’s just for 20 games.. Kane uni will be purchased. That’s a jersey that fans will compliment 25 years from now
Tell me before the trade deadline that drury pulled BOTH of Panarins best buddies to the rangers I’d say BS. He’s been killing it as GM
We want The Cup
Drury’s done his job. Now coaches and the players have to execute. Short time to get the chemistry right. The playoffs will be fun + nerve racking to watch, with this amount of talent + expectations. The East is so tough, let’s hope these veterans with winning pedigree can still elevate their own game + guide the youths. Now onto something more important…what should I sacrifice for a bit of puck luck and for the Bs or Canes to get bounced on the 1st round
Glad it’s finally done! LFGR
Woooo Rangers going to the Superbowl.
This is a steal. Kane has been playing out of his mind, he gets to be reunited with Panarin, and it’s time for our team to win the Cup. It’s not a coincidence that Kane won the Hart and Art Ross Trophies when he and Panarin were on the same line together.
Holy shit! This is the best news to brighten up my shitty day! Let’s fucking go!
Can’t wait for a loud minority of this sub to think that whichever acquired rw is paired with bread is the wrong one and gallant should be fired because of it
Drury flipped Kravtsov, Gauthier, Lundkvist, Blais, and a conditional 2nd for Kane, Tarasenko, Mikkola, and Motte. Absolute masterclass
Drury having the goat deadline.
Great news. I never want to hear about “cap hell” ever again.
If you want our full deadline
Out: Later of our 2023 1sts, conditional 2023 2nd (can become 2024 or 2025 1st), 2024 4th, unknown year 4th, conditional 2023 7th (can become a 2023 6th), Skinner, Blais, Gauthier, Kravtsov, unknown asset to ARI
In: 2026 7th, Tarasenko (50% retained), Mikkola, Motte, Lockwood, Kane (75% retained)
Tidy work by Drury.
Imagine telling yourself in September that the Rangers would end up with both Vladimir Tarasenko and Patrick Kane and they would be able to keep Kakko, Laf, Chytil, Othmann, Jones, and only give up 1-2 1st round picks.
Our lines are now
Kreider-Zibanejad-Tarasenko
Panarin-Trocheck-Kane
Laf-Chytil-Kakko
Motte-Goodrow-Vesey
If you’re going to sit here and complain about Kane’s analytics or what we gave up or the kids’ TOI or whatever, just… why. This is easily the best Rangers’ forward core of the 21st century. Just enjoy it.
Can we take a moment to appreciate that we knew this trade was nearly 100% happening for about a week and the details of what we might be given up weren’t leaked once in that time until 2 hours before the trade call.
holy fuck they did it…
I don’t know what to do with my hands guys..
Show me a Ranger fan who ISNT penisy right now
what an absolute robbery by kaner and the rangers.
