Confirmed with Link: Adam Fox for 2019 2nd (NYR), 2020 3rd (cond.)

[Levitate]

I mean, Fox is definitely worth more than a 2nd

Even with any question marks about his game, a 21 year old who scored 48 points in 33 games in the NCAA is something people would be ecstatic to have a 2nd round pick turn into. A conditional third (wonder if it's conditional on him signing or if it's something like if he plays X number of games for the Rangers next season) is just kind of bringing it closer to fair value

[Section311]

the 3rd in 2020 becomes a 2nd if he plays 30 games this year

 

[Bob Richards]

Maybe a lil more than I expected to give up but meh. Don’t care THAT much.

Happy we did it.

 

[Tawnos]

So with him signing, I'm guessing the condition must be a games played one. (the reports came in as I was typing this)

 

[TheTimTamSlammerMan]

The third is Dallas’ pick!!

 

[aufheben]

People calling the price steep.

 

[Leonardo87]

Awesome! Shaping up to be a great off
Season. Not too upset with what we gave. Have plenty of assets already.

 

[Anthony5967]

The third is Dallas’ pick!!

Is that confirmed? Rangers have their own third this year and next.

 

[Drew4u]

2 early seconds to get him a year early....

No its not lol

No I’m joking, but that would suck.

You don't think 2 early seconds is steep to get him a year early ok....

 

[TheTakedown]

Lfg wow I'm so pumped for this

 

[Lays]

Oh wow, 37th and if Fox plays 30+ games it’s another 2nd. Don’t know why Gorton was so aggressive when it’s not like we’ll need him next year. I cannot wait though, we get to see Kakko, Kravtsov, Shestyorkin, and Fox now next year. While Fox by himself is worth 2 2nds easily, we could’ve waited and signed him for free. Unless Gorton knew that another team was interested in trading for Fox as well that Fox might be interested in signing with and he decided to grab him before that happened

 

[FireGerardGallant]

Filipovic said it perfectly

There’s always a chance another team could woo him if he got to UFA.

For sure. Wouldn't just take everything for granted like "oh he was definitely going to go to the Rangers"

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

So on the right aside we have Fox, ADA, Shattenkirk, and Pionk.

At least one of Shattenkirk/Pionk won’t be here next year is my guess.

 

[Tob]

Bob and Fried man is reporting different conditions. big difference.

 

[Harbour Dog]

It looks like we'll be signing him to an ELC for sure, so that helps.

But it's still a steep price for one extra year of a kid that we were going to get anyway. Whatever; he's a Ranger now, and I'm excited to see him in camp!

If Bigras and/or Gilmour find their way back to us, Hartford is going to be brimming with competent defensemen this year.

Who are they getting with that pick with upside as high as Fox? Fox is probably the first D off the board in this draft.

 

[Thirty One]

There’s always a chance another team could woo him if he got to UFA.

Or another team trades for him and he decides his second choice team is better than waiting another year.
