Right, not sure how but I misread your post. I missed the "overall" part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iinatcc Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 (edited) it's quite interesting how Lafrieniere and Byfield have so far underperformed relative to their draft position. I still think both could break through but it's becoming more apparent Stutzle is maybe the #1 guy if a redraft is done in done in 2 years.

Nucker 67 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 I guess the Trade Freeze is over? I'm really hoping there is a trade soon. Or do they think with Dermott coming back and being relatively healthy (except for Demko and Pearson), that they have enough to make a real run?

JeremyCuddles Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 The Rangers say no, and the league says no. This thing called cap exists. They have like none this year, and they have to re-sign K'andre Miller this summer, who looks to be a bit of a stud. A lot of their high cap players have NMCs. Doubt they waive to come here and I'd even argue they're worth more than Boeser alone. Let alone adding in Laffy. But, if we wanna target Laffy or Kakko. We could send em Kuzmenko. It'd really depend on how desperately they wanna make a run. But Kuzmenko and Panarin could become best buds. Would help them with negotiations. Kuzmenko and Schenn for one of their struggling kids and maybe a 1st rounder. And if we can squeeze Schneider outta them even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Yes, I would do this in a minute, and would probably even eat 50% of Boeser's contract to make the cap work. Lafreniere has too much overall skill and talent not to take that type of risk. Shelter him for the rest of the season and ease him up in playing time as he learns better defensive responsibility. Boeser at 50% retained might actually make a deal like this work. Send them back their 4th rounder in the upcoming draft if they need a little more.

rawkdrummer Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 More likely the Rangers would want Horvat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kravstov has come in and played ok as well so he’s just not getting enough prime ice. They’re doing what the old Canucks used to do, get a high pick and throw him into a checking role They’re going to bust him if not careful and his value is declining, first overall means nothing once you’ve been around a couple of years. Is Kakko really the value of a second overall today? no same reason Canucks should be all over this as he would be a great first line LW and replace Bo’s scoring eventually.

canucklehead44 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Other than Trouba the Rags have no bad contracts. Insane compared to how many we had over the Benning era. I don’t see a trade here. Boeser @ 50% retained + Schenn @ 50% retained for Kakko maybe ??? Not a good trade for either team IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flickyoursedin Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Laff is going to be an RFA this year I believe. I wonder if we do move off from Horvat and sell some of our other guys if trying to steal Laff away for 2nd round compensation. NYR won’t have the cap space and if they did move stuff around to match it would kind of suck to use that much money on a contending team for somebody who doesn’t deserve it. I would think they’ll try to get him for the same they gave Kakko around 2 mill so if we came in and offered 4 mill for a year they might have to let him go for a 2nd round pick.

From the scouting report on Schneider, I think you’re on the right track targeting him in a trade for any of our players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
