    Leafs aren't retaining on a contract. They'd save more money just waiving Reaves and Johnson doesn't really do anything meaningful for them.

    Tampa Bay probably declines. They likely aren't giving up Schmidt for a couple of 4th line rentals.

    I would give up a 2nd round pick for a guarantee that Reaves never plays for us

    the leafs arnt retaining on reaves, especially with 2 more years and the fact that they can bury him for less than 1/3rd of that retained cap hit

    Sabres need Mittelstadt more than a pile of assorted garbage, these are the only pieces that makes sense

    I mean it’s not my fault Buffalo doesn’t have a cuylle or Schneider on their roster, who the rangers don’t want to give up

    Rangers would only be interested in Tuch anyway

    The desperation for top 4 right d overwhelming to us. If Kevin Adams cares about Buffalo Sabtes tranquility he'll get us a good one

    RD is definitely hard to come by so I hope Drury doesn’t trade Schneider, unless it’s too good to turn down

    I'd be interested in Okposo, not so much Girgensons. But don't think BriseBois would be willing to part with Schmidt for them as rentals

    Darn unicorns and he's still cooking. Perfect Trouba replacement if develops. Our best trade piece is Mittlesdadt so unless it's worthwhile we'll have him Cozens and Peterka as an amazing line methinks

    I would love Mitts on the rangers but the reality is he would be the 3C and then will get a big pay raise when the rangers should be upgrading else where

    This year Schneider is top 3 defenseman on the rangers. Lindgren fell off hard, Gus is meh and Trouba is only good at hits and blocking shots

    Understand totally but he'll get 7 million times 7 years and be well worth it. I'd personally keep him slightly over Cozens because he's improving game by game actually very interesting to watch. Think he's going to be a good 1c with couple snipers on his line so hate to see him beat us on another team

    You mean all that assorted garbage that is in 1st place in the metro headed for the playoffs again, while Buffalo gets to play golf during the playoffs again....for how many years in a row now? Must hurt that a pile of garbage is 10x's better than your team. Obviously the Rangers pass on your absurd trade offer.

    No I mean the garbage that hasn't and won't factor into the NHL team that ranger fans duct tape together with a 1st
