Well Vanek we all know will be dealt, that's obvious. But him being a NYR fan, I could all but asure that his tweets are in regards to a NYR move shaping up. Whether it's a Cally trade or re-signing, we'll have to wait and see.

Well he said he'd see Vanek moving, but my point was that Vanek wasn't going back to NYR in a Cally trade. My guess when he's talking about some "crazy" move, I think it's Cally that'd go. But him saying crazy is almost frightening...considering what NYR did last year.

Oh yeah no way that happens, but i'd love that. People have started a MSL to the Rangers rumorbecause he tweeted something about players being "reunited"

What, Brad Richards and Marty? Tampa could certainly be a player this deadline day.

He played well with Vinny the Cavalier.

Just saying...




Going to be interesting here real soon. Gaborik actually has a NTC (which I didn't know) which he waived in New York to come to Columbus. Now, he has said he wants to be here and really wants to get a deal done with Columbus. He has to chomping at the bit for a few games with Johansen and Horton.

As in MSL coming to NY and yes, being reunited with Richie, but I don't see it.

His feeling is that Ryan Callahan will be traded
His feeling is that only one of Callahan and Girardi will be traded
“if it goes through it will be nuts around here.”
He thinks that Pitt will acquire Chris Stewart
The team is in the East
It’s 90% and works for both teams
Could be a 1 for 1 trade with potentially a conditional draft pick
It’s a forward
His sense is that fans would not be happy initially
Callahan will be going as a rental player
The trade doesn’t involve Stepan, Nash, Staal or Lundqvist
The deal makes the Rangers look like both sellers and buyers
It is not Callahan for Stewart
It is not for Matt Moulson
He has “major” respect for the player coming back
It is not Colorado
It is not for Brandon Dubinsky
8:04AM:

It is not Clarkson or Chris Neil
It is not Brad Marchand
It is not Wayne Simmonds
It is not Vanek or Gaborik
He thinks the deal would be made sooner rather than later
9:47AM:

It is not Moulson or Evander Kane
It is not Artem Anisimov and a first round pick
It is not PK Subban
Is it not Iginla
Callahan is not going to Toronto or Boston
10:18AM:

It is not Martin Erat
This was something that no-one saw coming
The player coming back to the Rangers played in Sochi
It is not the Penguins
It is not the Caps, Sens or Devils
The player coming back is not signed long term
It is not Blake Wheeler
He laughs at the idea of Kadri
He doubts that this is a strategy to scare Cally into taking the Rangers offer

Buzz: Boomer Esiason indicates that something is going to happen and it could be big | SNY Rangers Blog

Told my friends last night that it will be between, Carolina, Buffalo or Columbus to get him. I could be right, have a feeling Steve Ott will be a NYR

I'd be incredibly sad if Marty went to Philly. That said, I don't see Marty moving considering TBL is a top team in the East. They're going to be adding if anything.

Not a lot makes sense outside of Marty. Is his contract expiring?

I'll believe it when I see it if/when Marty gets traded

There are so many clues there by Boomer that it's too much for me at this point to go through each one

Do Rangers fans like/hate Alfie? One of the clues there was that this trade would split the fan base up - Alfie's a rental basically

I can't speak for us all, but I don't see why any NYR fan would have a problem with Alfie. I would gladly take him on the Rangers. His shot on the PP would be perfect for us.

But, I don't know if he is the guy Boomer is talking about.

BTW, Boomer told me he liked my Twitter handle :) :lol:

Okay, so that's removing all G and D, and the teams he ruled out.

Yup, pretty much the list I provided, with mine to a lesser extent and with guys who are possible targets.

Remember, I've read that this whole contract negotations for these two guys will last the entire 7-10 days, so presumably, something could happen that surprises us or there's a new development in those 7-10 days that we didn't think would be the case now

Here's a wildcard: Kimmo Timonen for Ryan Callahan - obviously the Flyers and Rangers hate each other and while I think Kimmo should be widely respected around the league, I would have to think that would really be a kick in the baby maker for Rangers fans trading Ryan Callahan to the Flyers

Both guys are rentals and Kimmo played in Sochi

EDIT: I know it said it was a forward but things can change

No shot, We don't need defense and Timonnen wouldn't even make our 3rd pairing. Girardi will be signed. Leaving us with our top 6 set for a long time.

No shot he wouldn't even make the 3rd pairing? I know he's regressed but he's not horrible, he has to be better than Stralman at least?

It'd be a good pick up for depth, but not to trade Cally for. I want Cally on the Pens, but I can't even think of an appropriate package to send back. NO MAATTA.
