No thanks.
Drury was correct in rejecting the previous offer and should decline this as well.
Good for Vatrano, things working out, but he's not a 1st round level trade asset. He was acquired on reasonable deal and has put to good use his line 1 and pp1 toi.
I like Frank, but any price close to this is just too much.

I mean he’s the rangers backup plan for Guentzel

Who are they gonna get instead then? Zucker? That isn’t a needle mover either

Lol I do not want Guentzel either.
At their costs...
Zucker is absolutely the best option of the 3.

He’s barely an upgrade over Kakko lol Zucker should be like the 5th option

Rangers haven’t said they’re looking at Buch as a trade target. Mainly guentzel and Vatrano

When did Frank Vatrano become a god? The values I've seen assigned to him are maddening. He worked out here and is having a good season but sheesh the guy has a nice wrist shot and that's about it. He's really a middle six winger for some depth scoring. Being treated like a star!

Lol you’re telling me. I don’t know why the rangers want him back after only paying a 4th for him the first time

Agreed.
I really like Vatrano, played well while here, but does not change who/what he is.
Good on him for taking advantage of the the ice time he gets playing for cellar sweller Anaheim.

NY should not be "counting on" or worried about "needle movers". There are plenty of talented players in NY , they should be looking for more "glue" type players, to fit in around the current "stars".

Mika has struggled all year long….they can’t rely on him to magically wake up for playoffs

They currently only have 1 good 5v5 line and a 4th line that isn’t playable

I'm not worried about Mika...
I am worried about the 4th line... seems like for ever ago Prust/Boyle/Moore, Fedatenko, Fast....
Sorry but can't play the twin towers in the playoffs.

I mean I’m with you on that haha. They’re getting only 5/6 minutes in “meaningless” regular season games. Clearly they’re just placeholders

They are all way over priced at tdl.
Plan A should be Non rentals. Buch or Vat so we can flip & recoup. Or Chych & a rental W like Zuck then Flip Chych

I know but you think after how last year went Drury wouldn't want straight rentals and the kzb line was so good before and it could be good again

I mean Buch at $2.9m for 1.5 years is a no brainer
