More than that.

You think? a team could easily offer sheet him and the NYR would get less than each of these alone.

Interesting concept to trade for Lafreniere. Don't think NYR fires Gallant to trade him though as i would assume you fire the coach to try getting someone to develop that asset. If you acquired him, i would not sign him to a long-term deal as given his production $5.5 million is steep.

It's a risk reward trade FOR SURE. The Hawks have the cap space now. The Rangers might not be able to keep all their young player as is.

Yes, the childish offer sheet threat if the Rangers won't accept a crap offer. Go for it.

Don't mind the trade at all, but I would try signing him after that trade to a prove it deal of 2 years $3.5 million. If I am Davidson, i would be saving cap space to kick tires on AM34 or Debrincat if either get to free agency in summer of 24.

Wouldn't be shocked to see Domi back either this year.

The Rangers would have to at least consider that offer I'd think. Can't see them taking less than that. Their ask might be two 1st's, which I wouldn't pay. I think Drury moves out a veteran guy to create cap space if neccessary before he gives up on Laff. If the Hawks do get him, that contract is crazy town. $5.5m is one thing. 8 years? Yikes!

Lafrieniere isn’t even worth half of that….

Then don't trade for him and everyone is happy.
