          Devils RW depth is now? Holtz, then what?

          I would have though Ducks and Devils would immediately accept since they need scoring

          First thing is-
          We cant trade with you!
          Its the only thing I did not like with Shero
          I was content with it, you guys had your guys, we had ours.
          Any move that makes the other team better is horrible

          I do think you are right, we need top line wingers and a whole new D save 2 guys or so.
          Gifting (it is in my eyes) you Beniers or similar even for Krav hurts too much.
          Lets go back to hating each others team, with respect of course ; )

          There is no way of knowing that Kravtsov is as good as his draft position. The only way that a team is trading a top five pick is if it is for a proven commodity, a proven goal scorer, which he is not. Kravtsov has three points in 16 games. Who is trading that high of a pick for a prospect and the 20th pick in a very thin draft class?

          Holtz, Mercer, Bratt

          We need defense more than RW and we're definitely not giving a top 5 pick to a rival

          devils forward depth is absurd. we don't need kravy or ur first. we would like to select luke hughes or brandt clarke at 3/4 to complete our defensive core of
          smith - hughes
          mukh - walsh
          sieg - okhty

          to answer your first question, our forward core down the road is
          sharan - hughes - holtz
          zacha - hischier - bratt
          foote - kuok - mercer
          bastian - moynihan - wood

          so i think we're set. we're keeping this year's first, and if anything, we'll trade up to select jack, our franchise cornerstone, 's brother luke.


          your trade is fair in value it just doesn't meet our needs or desires.
          we'd happily accept trading our late round pick (NYI) and spare parts for someone of k'andre or nils caliber.

          I don't hate your team. Why should Rangers fans even worry about Devils? Our window is now and yours, if it ever arrives, would be 3-5 years down the road.

          He lit KHL on fire this year and is generally seen as the best RW prospect in the game. But ok.

          These are dreadful, there is a big dropoff in certainty in this draft, and the 20th pick could easily become a player who with adequate scouting should have gone in the 2nd or 3rd.
          Kravtsov looks talented, but does not make up the gap in value as it is unclear what he can produce when handed big minutes and responsibility. Try Top 5 pick for Pick 20 and Kakko perhaps.

          If Berniers was available I’d do it. We’d still have Schneider and Robertson in the pipeline. But there’s no way Berniers is available at 5. I think he goes 3rd latest.

          That seems kind of immature. Only a child hates another team for no reason cause your a rival. Just cause the Rangers and Devils or Isles are rivals doesn’t mean I hate the other team. Seems sort of ridiculous.

          If Hajek is seen as useless by organization, pretty sure other teams will feel the same.

          You may not follow prospects closely (maybe you do). But Kravtsov is about as highly rated as they get. So I think the value is there. And many Ranger fans see Kravtsov as eventually passing Kakko on our depth chart.

          If Hajek is seen as useless by organization, pretty sure other teams will feel the same.

          Lmao hajek is awful no team would take him if he was free


          Look at the Devils defense. I'd think they would need him. Maybe Rykov or Skinner instead.

          You’re clearly trolling cause those guys don’t have much of an nhl future. Hajek at best might be worth a 4th round pick at best.

          Devils RW depth is now? Holtz, then what?

          I would have though Ducks and Devils would immediately accept since they need scoring


          Just value wise the Sabres would laugh the rangers out of the building for that offer. To grab a first overall pick, you can’t just throw a prospect and a 20th overall at a team. Something major has to go the other way. There are only two pieces that would get the Sabres front office to even meet. Lafreniere, and kakko. Well, obviously fox too but the rangers aren’t trading him.

          This would be to add to existing trade ...so 20th overall plus Kravtsov plus d-man for 4th overall pick. (Not dman for 4th).

          Hajek doesn’t move the needle though.

          Fox and Laf stay in New York, but I'd be open to Kakko for their 1st overall pick.

          You may not follow prospects closely (maybe you do). But Kravtsov is about as highly rated as they get. So I think the value is there. And many Ranger fans see Kravtsov as eventually passing Kakko on our depth chart.


          I'm not necesserily the best versed on the rangers prospect pool, but his D+2 season in the AHL did not look good in the slightest, and in his 3 games in the NHL in his D+3 year he has 3 points.
          You may argue that he is playing down the depth chart, which has some validity, but then if he is that talented, why is he not forcing himself up the depth chart?
