What if Reaves was taken out, would the trade work for the Rangers?

NYR DECLINE! Reavo has been a beast for us, and his cap hit is up after next season (when we need to resign laffy, miller, jones, etc.). The Rangers have no need for Leddy.

I read an article listing the Rangers as a fit for Leddy as a veteran LHD for them for the playoffs, but I'm not a Rangers fan so I'll take your word for it.

What if Nemeth was switched for Reaves in this scenario? Would that work, or is it just a straight no on any Leddy trade?

Rangers dont need the retention and I wouldn't consider Reaves a cap dump.

NYR have Nemeth for that role, we also have veteran presences throughout the locker room.

Detroit wouldn't benefit from adding Broberg, Holloway, and Brisson....all at the cost of expiring contracts, taking on some $ and Zadina?

Why do you believe that the Wings would pass on all 3 trades? Not enough return for them?

Honestly no, Detroit has the best LD prospect pool in the league led by Simon Edvinsson. Heck Albert Johansson put up better numbers in the SHL then Phillip Broberg. I wouldn't deal anyone of Edvinsson, Johansson or Wallinder for Broberg. And Jonatan Berggren i'd take over Holloway any day of the year.

Bunch of 3rd liners of the future for zadina and a 2nd is the nuts and bolts of this. No need to trade zadina for this. Just doesn't make sense for their direction

I didn't suggest trading any of Edvinsson, Johansson, Wallinder or Berggren. If Detroit could add more highly thought of prospects to the pool, why not....more shots at a potential top player....and if we end up with too many good young LHDs or forwards then that seems like a good problem to have.

Ok, so take out the Edmonton trade. Why pass on the other 2?

Don't want or need Ryan reeves. Rather take a 3rd for leddy with no contract coming back.

Gagner probably isnt going anywhere he's the glue guy on the team that all his teammates like, plays PK and leadership roles for the wings. I wouldn't be shocked if they resigned him again.

Dadanov is expensive and not needed and I get he's a cap dump for brisson, but also paying a 2nd ontop of taking a bad contract. These moves honestly just don't move the needle or make sense for the wings. brisson is same as Holloway, most likely a 3rd liner, they have plenty of that already for prospects.

If we are gonna make moves it won't look like these.

So in essence, you'd rather have a 3rd round pick and a 4th round pick over Brisson moving forward?

I get the fact that Gagner is a good locker room guy which is great to have around, but the Wings have shown recently that they shouldn't be playing for this year anymore, they should be looking forward. And if they keep Gagner or trade him, they would still have the same opportunity to sign him again in the offseason.
