Ranger Fans Please Stop Trying to Trade Kreider or Trouba

Created by: Shakabakes
Team: 2020-21 New York Rangers
Initial Creation Date: May 13, 2021
Published: May 13, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
We know the Contract to Trouba was a bit too much. That they went overboard trying to lock him up after acquiring him in that trade. And that even though he played much better this Season, he will probably never play as good enough to rationalize that yearly amount.

We also knew it was a complete mistake to resign Kreider at all. Even before we were given the gift of Lafreniere (which made it even worse), we knew Kreider should have been moved for whatever assets we could get. His inconsistent Hot/Cold streaks at a higher Cap hit did us no favors.

Alas, we are stuck with both of them. Not only due to the fact that there Contracts tend to scare off other teams. But due to the fact that they both have full NMC's over the next 3 years, which then become Modified NTC's. They choose whether they want to go, and where they want to go if they do. Which makes them even more impossible to move.

So if you're one of the Ranger fans reading this, that have nonchalantly added either of them into your ACGM Proposals on numerous occasions, please Stop. They're not going anywhere, whether we like it or not. So there is just no point. Wait 3 years, and then give it another shot (at 50% retention).

Just need to focus on Trades and Extensions that work around them both, for the time being. Save yourself some time, and just focus there instead.

Thank you.

Amen. It simply makes our fanbase annoying, although it's all fanbases. It's at the point where scrolling through all agm posts is a complete waste of time. Then there's homerism, opposite needs, cap negligence or random tidbits...

It makes us logical fans look bad (in addition to the Chytil, Kravtsov, 1st trades for Eichel).

Good point. Everyone needs to read this, yet the ones that really need to, probably wont. Trigger fingers

The amount of cap space this team wastes is remarkable. 14.5 on those two, 12.5 on buyouts. Could have 26.5 in free cap space. Not to mention if you kept Pionk and the Heinola pick. This team could win 5 straight cups if they don’t waste cap space so efficiently. And with all that waste, they’re still a great team

Or we buy them out in another year and suck it up with the cap penalties. I don’t really care since we’ve already gotten use to having a ridiculous amount of dead money on the books. Being sentimental will get us no where. If they’re bought out we could replace them with younger options or guys who might actually deserve their contracts.

They have 2 years before Lafreniere and K'Andre burn off their ELC's. As long as they go the Bridge route with their other young guys (outside of Fox, and probably Shesterkin), they could weather the financial storm a bit.

It’s a good thing that there’s no cap on buyouts cause those are literally our saving grace.
