Description

Nash is not the Ranger we should be targeting. Look towards Michael Grabner. Elite speed and a demon in space. He reminds me a ton of Victor Arvidsson. If we make a big trade, this is the one that needs to happen. Also, I love that Fish is back. But if Sissons continues to play the way he's played the last few weeks then we can't scratch him. Slowly but surely Hartnell is running out of room on this roster. Last but not least, EELI TOLVANEN.

Yes this all looks very nice for Nashville. Except that Grabner will cost you your 1st.

I love this! The only things I'd say is that it'll prolly cost a little more for Grabner like a 2nd instead of a 3rd. I would personally have Tolvanen on the second or third line because of his style and lack of size but that's just being picky. Solid post.

Good call on not touching Nash. I see a lot of fans of contenders on here very high on him, not realizing A.) it's not 2008 anymore and B.) He will still (somehow) cost a lot. Grabner is a more prolific scorer this year, and while he'll still cost a higher pick, is cheaper than Nash.

Agree with you. One item that folks leave out when trading a player to another team, is who does new player replace?

Even if they don't overpay for Nash, Grabner is most likely going to fetch a 1st.
