Thread: New York Rangers Deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AG_sweden</b></div><div>A legit contender? Well only in your head it does. But it makes sense that other fans wants NYR to still throw money on this old dying beast. It help you out. So I get it.
That window that ended last year you mean? What 5 years are you talking about?</div></div>

Reread my post, i said NYR don't have 5 years. But the window is still open for a few 2-3 seasons. Panarin and Kreider are still good, NYR are still one of the top teams in the east.

I get that rebuilds are appealing for fans nowadays, but when you're a top 5 team in the league, you have to aim for the cup and not for a top 10 pick. I wish MTL was a top 5 team.

I don't get why you think it would help other teams if NYR traded for a rental?

Thread: ZEGRAS TRADE IF DEMIDOV IS OFF THE BOARD
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>He's really not, vast majority of redrafts have Zegras still above Caufield even though both moved up, Caugield is usually top 6-7 while Zegras is usually top 3.

As to the Dach trade, Dach was mishandled, damaged goods when MTL traded for him, his value was significantly below where Zegras's is. It'll take a blue chip piece to get Z, one of Slaf, Reinbacher, or MTLs first will need to be the main piece of the deal, not a late first and some prospects that MTL doesn't mind getting rid of.</div></div>

Last summer, most redrafts had Zegras over Caufield. Now it's not the case anymore, just look at recent ones. And i think we can agree most fans would take Caufield since Zegras value has lowered recently.

Like i said, a package around late 1sts isn't enough for Zegras. But Reinbacher wouldn't only be a main piece, but the only piece going back as i can't see a team offering a better prospect/pick.

Realistically, i would say a top 15 pick is probably what ANA should expect for Zegras. And it's fine.
