<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Cornbreadnhl</b></div><div>Well, then your missing things.</div></div>

I see everything just fine, I just dont let 1 or 2 good plays mask the bad ones, or the ones not made at all. You speak of Schneider like hes some sort of game changer.

But this trade has nothing to do with this year or the next because Perreault likely wont be a roster player yet. This is completely independent of this year.

Schneider being the 2nd or 3rd best defenseman on this team isnt something to be proud of. Schneider hasnt exactly been stellar.

Look, you expect to give up nothing for a guy who's probably gonna have 30 goals before the trade deadline and a veteran 2-way center whos having a solid year... On top of the fact that you want the Ducks to retain money in the deal.

The Rangers should take this and run!

The Rangers dont need a 2C, but you dont turn it down when its served up on a silver platter. Trocheck was not brought in to be a 2C, but hes turned into our best C. What he's signed for is an absolute steal. Putting Mittelstadt in the fold gives us ridiculous C depth, to the point that having him makes our 3rd line as good as most 2nd lines.

Thread: Ny Rangers FAKE

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldSenileGuy</b></div><div>In a vacuum, I like it. It fits my “any Kakko trade must bring back a good young player” rule and I like Tolvanen

However, I wouldn’t be able to stop thinking that the rangers could have had him for free last year and almost certainly gone further in the playoffs and chose not to and it would really piss me off

See also: why even though I’d love having Buch back, I kinda don’t want it to happen</div></div>

31 GMs screwed the pooch on Tolvanen. 31 GMs didnt want to give Sprong a measly 2m. The Rangers chose to keep Goodrow and let Vatrano walk. Unfortunately we couldnt afford to resign Buch, that was the problem, which again, I think goes back to the Goodrow signing.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Fox_Czar_Cup</b></div><div>Remove Kakko to make this fair lol, nevermind the chirping duckling dreamers</div></div>

Unfortunately for you and many other Rangers fans, you cant use Kakko's age and draft position as leverage in a trade. Kakko has done nothing of any significance in 5 years. Rangers have a 2-3 year window to get something done. To continue to be delusional about the realistic value of Kakko is only going to hurt the Rangers. I would prefer not to trade him, but this team is real damn close.

Or how about just playing guys in the position theyre supposed to play. Theres a reason why its incredibly rare for defensemen to play their offside, unlike forwards.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mcpeach2</b></div><div>I wasnt saying it was good or bad business, (even though i side closer to bad) this is a video game trade, not something a actual NHL gm would consider, especially one with as such current pressure as Drury.</div></div>

Because its SJ, the 2026 1st round draft pick isn't really a video game trade. This is the year Gavin McKenna will be eligible for the draft. Given SJ's situation, an unprotected 1st puts you in a pretty solid lottery position.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HOCKEYBOY448</b></div><div>Never said it’d be easy, but that’s the kind of move that needs to be made.</div></div>

Youre not going to find one, especially one that will help us right now that a GM would be willing to part with peacefully. For example, this kid Tolvanen on the Kraken would be an awesome pickup for us. However theres no way Ron Francis trades him for Kakko. Would you trade Kakko for Sprong? Or Kakko for Evangelista?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mcpeach2</b></div><div>would take more than that. thats so far into the future also for a team thats trying to win now</div></div>

Gabe Perreault does not help them win now. He wont play for them this year, and he will likely not play for the Rangers next year. However, if you think that an unprotected 1st from SJ in 2026 is not a good idea, then you're not in tune with the prospects out there.

We have learned nothing from prior years if we do this. At least trade for someone 23-27 instead of late 20’s and early 30’s if we are gonna move younger pieces. And then when we don’t win and attempt a mini rebuild, we’ll question where we went wrong all over again like we did last decade.</div></div>

What team has a 23-27 year old that they're willing to trade? Who also happens to come with an extra year on his contract...

Its very unlikely they trade Othmann also unless its in some crazy blockbuster deal.

Thread: RangersDucks

The Rangers would not do this, nor would the Rangers trade Schneider. First off the retention would have to be 50% on Henrique. Secondly... You want Schneider? Then you send Gudas to NY, 50% retained on the rest of his contract and maybe we will think about it.

Thread: It is time to split up Mika and Kreider

I agree that we need to split up Mika and Kreider, however I dont do it at the detriment of the only line that is actually producing. There have been multiple instances of Panarin playing with Kreider and Mika where absolutely nothing occurred. Furthermore, the way the team is currently constructed, there is no center to play with Kreider. Splitting them up with the current roster feels more like a punishment to Kreider than something that is inspirational.
