Description

Nothing serious. Just trying to look at what the Rangers need vs what Bob Ellis wrote about.

Trades

CHI

Lafrenière, Alexis [RFA Rights]

Additional Details:

Just exploring what a trade might look like. I see the posts about Bob Ellis's article, but I think he's missing it. the NYR have Othmann and Sykora that are pretty darn good in their own right. The Rangers need more defensive prospects. It's ironically what the Hawks have the most of too. AND some of these Dprospects aren't KD's guys. They're Bowman's guys...so it might not be as hard for KD to part with them as WE as fans might think.

Also, the NYR need LD prospects specifically. Fox/Trouba/Schneider aren't going anywhere. Obviously neither is Miller, but he's 1 guy on the left.

NYR

Allan, Nolan
2024 1st round pick (TBL)
2024 2nd round pick (LAK)

Additional Details:

LHD prospect of their choice sans Korchinski

If Bob Ellis said it's true, it must be. He is THE Bob Ellis.

If that brings back Laf and the Habs didn't offer better I'm gonna cry.

Allan isn’t really needed. Would prefer the Reichel + 1st trade if CHI would do it.

Personally don’t think it’s realistic

Can you expand on this a bit more? I'm confused as to why the Rangers would prefer a prospect that while is good...you've got good LWers already. Is Othmann not any good in your mind? What's the best D prospect in the Rangers system?

This looks about right. I think I'd offer NYR the Tampa 1st and LHD prospect of their choice sans Korchinski
