Laf doesn’t sign it anyways.. no chance he wants to leave a contender for a basement team unless it’s really big money

And the rangers match that as well. We have over 12 million in cap space. Thanks for helping us lock both guys in.

Signing both lose guys for 4.2 m leaves you 2.3M with an 18 man roster needing a minum of 2 more guys, realistically 3-5 more, You lose Kane and Vlad for sure (which I guess you'll lose at least 1 anyways) and have no money in the next year for Lindgren, Kakko, and Schnieder. NYR absolutley can't handle these offer sheets if they were to come

The cap will also likely shoot up 8 million or so the following season. We can then also move kreider if necessary as his NMC ends.
The rangers will not lose their kids to offer sheets that arent 3 firsts+. You want Laf pony up several unprotected firsts.

Yeah because 10 offer in the last 25;years and 1 team drops 2 in the same off season if either player is willing to leave a contender for a team at what appears the earliest stage of a rebuild.

Not just the hawks that could do it. This is a fantasy hockey site and i'm talking about an interesting scenario that could happen. Main point is that the Rangers are very vulnerable this offseason and likley would be in a bit of trouble if one of these guys got an OS. Rangers fans are dilusional to think they aern't at least a little vulnerable this offseason

They were very vulnerable last season and no one even hinted at an offer sheet to kakko.
This is a fantasy hockey site, but for an offer sheet to work you need 2 things.
The player has to accept the offer - Laf is currently living in NYC, one of the best places to live if you are a young millionaire. He's going to clearly give that up to live in Winston Salem.
The team has to then not be able to match the offer, either due to cash constraints (AHO) or salary cap constraints - The rangers will be put in a tight spot for a few years if Laf is offered 4.8 and then miller is offered 4.8
But then the rangers will eventually lock up their core, and absolutely offersheet any player coming out of RFA to deals the canes can't match. The canes got nailed by an RFA sheet with Aho, they do not want to start a war with the rangers who have far more free cash than the canes.
GM's dont do offer sheets for a reason.

a buyout (not even trade) of Goodrow gives them 15m+ of cap space next year. We have Othmann and Cuylle in the waiting, and can temporarily replace Goodrow/Motte with Brodzinski/Leschyshyn who are signed for league minimum. Leaves them 3.7m in cap space with a 20 man roster to make upgrades to the 4th line/Botton LHD. It's really not that hard. Plus, it's not like Laffy/Miller will sign any offer sheet put in front of them to sign with a completely bottom barrel rebuilding team. You'll prob have to offer the Dahlin bridge if you want to get them to sign the offer sheet (3y*6m)
