Doing my annual tweet where I point out how stupid fighting is in a development camp and then people get mad at me.

Two links from yesterday: First, my analysis of Vladislav Gavrikov and his fit with the New York Rangers.

I think he did some good things and, even if certain decisions don't work out, the methodology is logical. They are also still nowhere close to matching the top teams in the East, have very little cap space to work with, and their top-3 centers are 32 years old.
How would you grade NYR And Drury's off-season?. I know he's had a lot of haters over the past year so I'm curious.

I really like Taylor Raddysh’s game but NYR have a lot of fourth line wing options and limited cap space. Confusing fit.
The #NYR signed 27 y/o F Taylor Raddysh to 2 year $1.5M Cap Hit Deal. 27P in 80GP. 1st on signing @glovesavegaming . Rep'd by Dave Gagner @wassermanhockey .

Trade Grades: there are valid reason to agree or disagree with NYR’s decisions today. But for the first time we actually see what Chris Drury’s vision is. Plus, the Hurricanes bet on upside.

If we're working with the premise that Martin Necas was an expiring asset, the Hurricanes turning him and Jack Drury into Miller and Logan Stankovan is pretty damn good maneuvering by Eric Tulsky.

My analysis of the Miller trade will publish soon. One aspect that makes more sense now is the departure of Zac Jones. Aside from doing him a favor, NYR had a replacement in mind. Morrow is very similar but offers maybe a little more certainty.

😏.
Educated speculation but I wonder if Scott Morrow is headed to NYR in the Miller trade. Carolina has a surplus of defense and he struggled to find a full-time job with the hurricanes. Hockey East product and would address NYR's need for a puck-moving defenseman.

That leaves them with roughly $2M to add another forward, if they want.
Hearing the NYR have agreed to terms with Will Cuylle . 2 x $3.9M.

Ken Holland was brought to Los Angeles to find a solution for finally stopping the Edmonton Oilers' offense and his solution is swapping out Gavrikov and Spence for Cody Ceci and Brian Dumoulin.

I would be pretty content to have this player on my third pair, actually.
@AdamZHerman Except he isn't good at all.

The term "whipping boy" is the most overused term by sports media because they usually get mad that fans think a bad player is bad. In the case of Soucy, it fits. I have no idea how he became the center of ire in NY. He was okay over 16 games while the team was falling apart.

Carson Soucy for 1 year at $3.25M looks pretty good right now. Just saying.
