Rangers, Weise Agree to Extension

The New York Rangers announced that they have agreed to a contract extension with forward Dale Weise.

Weise appeared in ten games last season with the Rangers. Although he did not register a point, his physical presence was evident. In his NHL debut, Weise registered a fighting major against the Philadelphia Flyers.

Last season with the Connecticut Whale of the AHL, he registered 18 goals and 20 assists. No contract details have been released as of yet, will be updating as they come about.

Overall, not a bad extension in my opinion. What are your guys thoughts on this?

Good signing.

Not a bad extension?

This guy is never going to amount to anything, what was the point of signing this completely useless player. We need Cally, Dubi and AA, not Weise.

My guess

It’s probably nothing more than a million. He’ll be in the AHL for some time anyway.

Weise will fill the hardest role to fill

OK then how about you try to play the role of 4th line enforcer instead. Weise is in a no-win spot as he has the shot at Boogaard’s roster spot.

You try being in his shoes and see how you fare.

Oh FYI Weise is one of the strongest guys the NYR have which is why he gets first crack at being the new enforcer.

He would not be useless if he can take several of the fights from Prust who has more value than as a fighter

@Last—That’s a ridiculously negative assessment of Dale Weise. Try less caffeine or less Haterade.

Prole art threat.

by greifi griffie on Jun 28, 2011 8:58 AM EDT up reply actions  

Agreed

totally foolish comment by last.

he also missed time due to injury I believe. He is probably the most NHL ready prospect the Rangers own, krieder thomas et al included. And at close to 500k a year what is the harm?

By the way, how does resigning someone in Hartford prevent the resigning of other players? Get a clue Last

Don’t mind him, he still wants kovalev

by teknics on Jun 28, 2011 11:26 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

Weise will be a fill in when we need one….I’m sure the money is small, its depth.

Absolute Worst Ranger Fan!!!!!!....yet incredibly realistic and usually correct.

He deserves an extension

just for that gatorade incident, classic. Literally could not stop laughing at that video.

Fourth line role player of the future

He has size and he can throw with some decent sized guys. He will develop into the responsible forward that probably has some pk time on the fourth line. Might mean we are not looking to bring back Fedex which kind of saddens me, or maybe Weise was extended to fill the role of Fedetenko (on the fourth line) in the 2012-2013 season

by Pballer505 on Jun 27, 2011 11:34 PM EDT reply actions  

Fedotenko

agree about Fedex. Notice this contract being the first signed, it is because we heard that the Rangers are struggling to come to terms with Feds and Weise can play a similar role (albeit without Fed’s experience) and thus help them get Fed’s # down. I think Weise has done his time though and I’d be happy to see him make the 4th line

by bwl1 on Jun 28, 2011 12:54 AM EDT reply actions  

He will never be able to do what feds can do. Not now not ever. Feds came out guns blazing every night … weise won’t

Hey hey the “where are they now” segment is in the previous thread

by Mr. Avery to you on Jun 28, 2011 2:00 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions  

Can the lineup below score enough goals to get a 4/5 seed?

Lots of ideas (Move Boyle to 3rd line wing, but not sure who play 4th line center). Does Stepan move to 2nd line center with Dubi and Cally?

Gaborik / Richards / Wolski
Dubinksy / Anisimov / Callahan
Avery / Stepan / Zuccarello
Prust / Boyle / Hagelin

EC and Weise

by Gabby the Gutless Sniper on Jun 28, 2011 5:03 AM EDT via mobile reply actions  

If used correctly, yes, they can score enough. You’d have to bury Boyle’s line in the defensive zone a bit to let Richards & Stepan’s lines get the offensive starts they need, but Torts is pretty good at that.

That lineup scores 30 more goals for the season than this past year’s. Yes, I think that is a 4-5 seed.

I like it. It competes while still letting us improve in the future.

I’ll trade you a stack of dirty towels for EC

Let me know how that works out for you . . .

by SimpleManiac on Jun 28, 2011 12:15 PM EDT up reply actions  

why not? I liked what Weise did in his limited playing time/role

Weise is what Weise is, a decent 4th liner “enforcer” type player. maybe he can fill the void Boogard left?

I just hope they re-up Feds.

Actually

he has shone the abilty to score in the AHL, way more than Grchev EVER did.

He missed considerable time with an injury. if you pro-rate his season to 80 games, he scores 30 goals. Alomst twice grachev’s numbers and right in line with his production the year before.

Weiss is a solid prospect who can easily step in to 3rd/4th line duty

by GAThingy on Jun 28, 2011 9:40 AM EDT up reply actions  

I agree
