C'mon Brad, you really need to make a couple of these COVID bargain bin signings.

I really hope he brings in Galchenyuk for under a million.

Nice signing at that price. Prior to last season he had 16, 17 & 17 goal season with the Rangers.

Is this that guy that was a NCAA highly touted UFA signing a few years ago?

Yes. He has not been nearly as advertised but he's a fine third-liner, I guess.

I’m pretty sure Liam Neeson appeared in a video pitch to try to get him to sign in New York.

This guys one step away from being out of the league. DO NOT WANT. Rather have Gawdin get the minutes.

I'd take him on a PTO.

Galchenyuk scored 105 goals over the five years before this past year...

There is something to be said about giving our home grown talent the opportunity (also cost controlled). If Alex comes in here and lights it up likely we wouldn't be able to afford him anyways. If he did come on a PTO and earned a spot then it is what it is. Id be OK with a PTO.

Yeah, another “I’ll only play for the Rangers” guy.

After spurning the Nashville Predators, who drafted him in the third round of the 2012 NHL Entry Draft and later the Buffalo Sabres, who acquired his draft rights from Nashville, Vesey picked the Rangers from eight different finalists.

Vesey needs go get Josh Anderson's agent. I suspect Vesey will outscofe Anderson this year.
