Keep Shesterkin; trade everyone else. Time to sell to the point where players like Zibanejad will waive their NMC because his only linemates left will be Carrick and Vesey. Put the young players with a future back in Hartford so they do not have to play with this group of sad sacks. Here’s the plan:

-Send Berard, Mancini, and Edstrom to Hartford

-Bring up players like Blidh, Belzile, and Robertson to play out the string

-Trade Kreider. He is a lifelong Ranger and may one day have his jersey retired; but he is one of the leaders of this team and has shown zilch. He is playoff tested and he will have value.

-Trade Lindgren. He can still probably net you a 3rd or maybe a 2nd.

-Trade Smith. Expiring contract and experienced vet, get a 3rd or 4th.

-Once healthy, see what is out there for players like Miller, Schneider, and Kakko. All are young and will have good NHL careers; just not as Rangers.

-Zibanejad will be so sad at this point that he would probably waive his NMC to be a supporting player ANYWHERE. His AAV and term will probably lower his value so we would probably have to take a player with a bad salary back but hopefully with less term.

-If anyone else wants out, figure out a hockey trade that makes sense but strip this team down to the bone. This includes Adam Fox. I know most Ranger fans worship this guy but he is very overrated by our fan base. Fox has been figured out by other teams and considering he is a bad skater with a poor shot, I’d be fine with fielding offers for him.

-At the end of the day, Igor is the only guy left on this team who will be here guaranteed after next season. Panarin is off the books and if this team is gonna rebuild, he’s a goner.

-If this team was still competitive next season, a certain pending UFA center playing in Edmonton might have wanted to become the highest paid player in the NHL in a huge market like New York. Instead, he will see what a joke this team is and probably re-sign in Edmonton to be an Oiler for life.

I would argue that every cup winning team has had a core group of 5-6 players. But the question is how do you identify a core group of players? For me it's a group that are deemed untouchable and that number should consists of 4-6 players, preferable a goalie, a defenseman, a center and a winger.

The "core" concept works never. Your shit team exemplifies that perfectly. Keep slurping. Maybe your next slurp will do it.

The 2023 and 2024 Panthers didn't really have an easily defined core. Barkov and Bobrovsky were their best players. You could debate which of Reinhart/Tkachuk were more important forwards. And their defense had a 1D by committee of Forsling/Ekblad/Montour splitting time.

I doubt anybody could agree on who exactly made up the St. Louis core of 2019.

2017 Penguins didn't really have a core beyond Crosby/Malkin. No goalie had more than 9 wins during that run and Letang didn't even play.

If Schenn is in there then Binnington has to be in there. And once you get up to 5/6 players, that defeats the purpose of defining a "core."
>>146217217
Letang had a season ending injury in February, and Fleury was the backup goaltender for the final two series.

Meh, Binnington was there as a rookie and wasn't perceived as any part of the core.

who cares, the pongs had committed to these guys even if they got injured/played poorly
they won a cup in 2009 with those core players and again in 2018
2017 wasnt some isolated roster

Engvall is part of the core

letang was a bottom pair defenseman in 2009, and Fleury was a backup.

players are only part of the core if they're locked in long term and the GM fills out the roster around them. you cannot have 6 great players locked up long term in the cap era. Not even Zito was able to do that.

If you look at the Buffalo roster, you realize that their rebuild is over. They have their guys.

The problems are the coach, administration, corporate, owners... and everything surrounding the team. No kidding there would be issues in the room, I could see favoritism and gaslighting all the way back here in the nosebleeds.

This won't change until the team is sold. I mean Pegula (sp?) gave the team to his silver spoon wife to run! As an opposing GM, you're only thought is to cannibalize the corpse. It's a well built team that's toxic to the core.

The Ballad of Dustin Wolf

(To the tune of a classic epic ballad, sung with bold, heroic tones)

Verse 1:
In the land of snow and ice, where the Calgary Flames do burn,
A hero rose with strength and might, whose fame would soon return.
In the crease, he took his stand, his will as sharp as steel,
Dustin Wolf, the fearless one, whose legend was unreal.

Chorus:
Oh, Dustin Wolf, the goalie true, who guards the net with might,
With every save, the crowd would roar, and the Flames would win the fight!
No foe could break his iron wall, no puck could pierce his shield,
For Dustin Wolf, the mighty one, would never, ever yield!

Verse 2:
His pads like armor, gloves so swift, the battle had begun,
The enemy would strike and shoot, but none would ever stun.
The crowd would cheer, the puck would soar, yet none could find the way,
For Wolf would rise, and with one move, he’d keep the puck at bay.

Chorus:
Oh, Dustin Wolf, the goalie true, who guards the net with might,
With every save, the crowd would roar, and the Flames would win the fight!
No foe could break his iron wall, no puck could pierce his shield,
For Dustin Wolf, the mighty one, would never, ever yield!

Verse 3:
Through every clash, through every shot, he stood without a fear,
His eyes would gleam, his gloves would fly, the end was never near.
With every flash, with every dive, he turned the tide of war,
And in the end, his name would echo on forevermore.

Chorus:
Oh, Dustin Wolf, the goalie true, who guards the net with might,
With every save, the crowd would roar, and the Flames would win the fight!
No foe could break his iron wall, no puck could pierce his shield,
For Dustin Wolf, the mighty one, would never, ever yield!

(Fade out with the echo of the crowd, chanting "Wolf!" across the ice.)

[Verse 1]
Hello out there, we're on the air, it's 'Hockey Night' tonight.
Tension grows, the whistle blows, and the puck goes down the ice
The goalie jumps, and the players bump, and the fans all go insane
Someone roars, "Bobby Scores!", at the good ol' Hockey Game

[Chorus]
OH! The good ol' Hockey game, is the best game you can name
And the best game you can name, is the good ol' Hockey game

Second Period.

[Verse 2]
Where players dash, with skates aflash, the home team trails behind
But they grab the puck, and go bursting up, and they're down across the line
They storm the crease, like bumble bees, they travel like a burning flame
We see them slide, the puck inside, it's a 1-1 hockey game

(Chorus)

Third Period. Last game of the playoff too!

[Verse 3]
Oh take me where, the hockey players, face off down the rink
And the Stanley Cup, is all filled up, for the champs who win the drink
Now the final flick, of a hockey stick, and the one gigantic scream
"The puck is in! The home team wins!", the good ol' hockey game
