Wow. Didn't think they would do it.

Other names I have heard re: buyouts are Cory Schneider and Alexander Wennberg.
While it does make financial sense to buyout Ryan I thought for a second maybe a team might consider the personal side?? I guess it is just business

I think Goligoski makes some sense for them, too. They have some interesting pieces. Wood, Butcher and Bahl come to mind.

Goligoski and Ruff connection too from Dallas. Goligoski is the perfect defenceman for his system.

It was the last GM that traded for Bahl, which is something else to MAYBE consider. It seems like many of their fans are eager to give Wood and Butcher changes of scenery.
Goligoski and Raanta for Wood and a pick

I'd even throw them Schmaltz for Zacha and a first or something.

^meh, my first thought was: make up call for that dive call on Point after his cup check.

Better team's winning so far.
Yeah, I’m an outlier in this but rooting for Dallas, as they were my team during 90’s due to my proximity to them and also wish Bowness and Pavelski well, but better team is ahead.
Make up call was just Perry Perry’d and it nearly worked out.....

I don't think it matters because I don't think anyone outside of a few fans think that's the scenario. Not even Tocchet believes we just ran into a great team. Tocc is just blowing smoke trying to survive the chopping block.

NYR has a ton of cap space even after they re-sign Tony D and their other pieces. Who are they targeting in UFA? The Rangers really can’t control themselves when it comes to free agency.

They need a 2C. Some of their fans have floated the idea of a Stepan reunion.

They have about $20 million in space but only 14 players signed. That won't leave much for free agents.

True but a few are depth guys or ELCs like Lafreniere. Also potentially more cap space with a Hank buyout.

I dont think they can buy Hank out? If they sign DeAngelo I think they are pretty much done with big contracts unless Hank agrees to move.

Can still buy him out. His NMC doesn’t protect him from that.

Ah I’m not sure if there is a limit on that. If so maybe they can flip him to another rich team who promises to buy out his deal.
