lmao, It's cute and Tampa will be desperate, but we have much better assets to give up to make a trade that could actually work. This obviously gets declined instantly

You also got Nils Lundkvist out of that trade

+18 in the playoffs

Honestly, he's been our best defenseman last playoffs and this one. I hope Henriksson and/or Lundkvist turn out for you all because McDonagh has been priceless for us since we acquired him.

Yep. I remember hating that deal. Trading Miller also stung a ton. It's not been fun so far for us unfortunately.

Never know. They may be handcuffed. Who knows what happens with them after last offseason.

I think I hated it initially, but Miller turned into the 1st used to acquire Coleman and McDonagh has been a rock. The future looks bright for you all though, but no pieces from this trade have panned out yet.

Lundkvist and Henriksson will have an impact but Miller and McDonagh should've yielded more. Glad Gorton is gone.

Of course the Rangers would not have had the cap to sign McDonagh to his new contract.......Gorton and friends did a lousy job managing the cap, so many buyouts

Poor work by him. Glad it is in the past.

Got news for you slick, If you reverse the McDonagh trade you lose the right to draft Nils Lunkvist with Tampa's #28 overall pick. So Lunkvist doesn't belong to you but another team.

I got news for you slick, I didn't really mean a "reverse" just an empty calorie package to get McDonagh back. Howden and Hajek are league minimum pieces to help Tampa crawl out from their cap troubles with dumping Mac's $6.75M cap hit.

Well you said reverse and gave Tampa back Howden and Hajek so Tampa's 28th overall pick to land Nils Lunkvist goes back to.

I just explained what my motive in the deal was
