You are getting a 23 year old RHD at a really reasonable cap hit. You managed to avoid moving Andersson or Chytil. Realistically I don't see anyway they keep Namestnikov, Hayes, and Spooner next year. We could move one or 2 of them for prospects and or picks but I think this move fits into the rebuild. You never know what the assets will develp into. I think Ristolaninen is in that tier right below the elite level defensemen in the league and it also fills a huge need for the Rangers. Maybe its not the right move but it was a thought.
