Wouldn’t be the worst idea giving Perry a look. I know it would be controversial, but they could use a better bottom 6 player like him

He's been disliked most of his Career. But not only is the recent incident something that can be overlooked (as it wasn't anywhere near what the rumors were suggesting), but his production on a lackluster Chicago team wasn't too bad. For a bottom line pest with experience, I'll take it.

Do you think Perry would be a good fit for the Rangers?
I’m just curious to ask 🤔

He's still a great 4th liner, but seems to carry some off ice baggage. If a team would be willing to take the risk it's not bad at league min

Fair enough.
Good statement 👍

Besides the assets he brings to the table (physicality, point production, experience, Playoff pedigree), but his signing and Kakko's return would finally push out Wheeler out of the Lineup.

Wheeler's legs are gone. His Offensive production (on the Top Line, no less) is nonexistent. And even in his prime, he wasn't a good Defensive player, so nowhere for him in the Bottom 6.

And as I said, no assets given up. Even if an argument can be made to other players being a better "fit", it's low risk/high reward all around to me.

I saw Wheeler’s performance against Vancouver, and he looked awful and completely lost.
Good thing Rangers gave him one year contract 😅

I applauded the deal when it was signed. Even if he gave you about 40 points for the Season, getting him for under $1M was a bargain.

While things have worked out wonderfully with Vesey and Gustafsson at that low price tag, Wheeler just hasn't performed as expected (even to that miniscule amount).

While I won't go back now and dump all over the signing, it's past the point where they feel they need to throw him out there because he's a "bargain".

He's a detriment. End of story. For a team at the top of the Standings with Cup aspirations, they need to get someone who can perform.

I think Nashville accepts if Trotz has no desire to keep Novak
