Description

Not too concerned with who was sent where. Just this team needs to take advantage of being hurt the whole season and offload the rental players. Accumulate some high draft picks and restock the farm and play of the few they have (McMichael/Protas/Iorio/Alexyev) to get them experience and not worry if they will be scratched because they made a mistake.

Take the L on the season, and give it a go in the summer to compete for a playoff spot again.

Montreal would likely do that even without retention

Rangers can't trade either 1st until both teams are out of the playoffs since they're conditional on which one goes to St Louis
