Player Discussion Chris Kreider

[NYSPORTS]

Could see the Rangers asking price too high, the deadline passes and Kreider says he’s not talking contract until the end of the year.

that would be awful

I agree - imo, don’t get cute. Make a deal. This shouldn’t come down to 3pm or whenever on Monday. That’s how our non-rental Captain and 24 yr old winger ended up in Tampa for a mediocre return.

Looks like Boston is out. I didn't see anyone mention not just the difference in total dollars but any tax implications from being in NY. I think state tax in NY is 4% higher than CO. It all adds up.

Kase traded to Bruins by Ducks for Backes, prospect, first-round pick

 

[JohnC]

I am fully prepared for whatever outcome we get with him

 

[Harbour Dog]

I think they find a way to resign Kreider. That said, I know everyone keeps bringing up 7x7 for CK as the ask. But don't you think if he made it to FA a few teams might be willing to offer closer to 8m?

I expect he gets 8m on the open market as well.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Boston being out on him is pretty high on the list of things that I did not want to read today.

 

[NYRangers0723]

I feel more confident in him being resigned than I did a week ago. All comes down to if they can compromise in between. The offers don’t look that good. Boston has nothing I wanted and Colorado sis in a great position to get him for half the price so obviously I don’t want that either

I'm not prepared for Tavarasing him.

DO NOT LET HIM WALK!!!!

Is that you, Jeff Gilooley?

I don't think the Rangers would ever go that route and not take a chance to hedge their bets by trading him.

I just do not see that happening.

 

[NYRangers0723]

Either we resign him or get a subpar return. Boston is out, isles never seemed like a possibility, Colorado has more leverage now to try and fleece us. With their injuries they could easily stand pat and just decide it isn’t worth trading any important prospects for a rental

 

[Rongomania]

Can Kravtsov get to the NHL first before we start worrying about his contract extension?

I know they'll be cost controlled for a while, but not 4 + years from now, that's what I'm worried about. Just don't want to lose any of them so Chris Kreider can be awesome for three more years.

Eh they couldn’t afford him anyway. With Strudnicka as an untouchable, what were we gonna get back from them? 31st overall pick and? They couldn’t meet what we were asking for

There are more teams in on him than that.

I get that you want him to stay, but it sounds like you're trying to convince yourself that hes staying than honestly looking at the current situation.

 

[Blais to Win]

8-8.5 seems like what he's worth, if you look around. From his point of view all he has to do is see what his teammates did in free-agency. I'd hope, even at that cost, they keep him.

Not really. I know there are/were 5 teams Colorado , isles,Boston(dropped out) Washington, St. Louis. I’m not trying to convince myself of anything so making silly assumptions is not right..I wouldn’t do it to you. I think I’ve been very fair about the situation. I never said we should give him anything he wants. In fact I’ve also said if we got a good pick like the devils got for a Hall then go for it. Look I understand we have different opinions about this subject but like I said don’t make assumptions about what I’m thinking because it’s wrong and I don’t do it to you

6.75 per is the highest I would go.

Their 1st + Beecher + a small add would of been fine by me.

Even if they win the President's trophy, the pick could be anywhere from 24-31.

they traded their first already it over

 

[Crease]

I wonder if going to the Islanders is the option that most likely leads to Kreider re-signing with the Rangers in July. He wouldn't even need to move closets. Just show up to a different office for the next four months.

On second thought, probably not. If the Rangers aren't willing to sign Kreider for market price now, they won't in July.

If that’s the asking price, that would meet the definition of significant gap and the Rangers will not be signing him.

 

[NYR]

JG has the MO of asking too high and waiting until the very last second every TDL since he's been here.
You don't think every GM in the league knows this by now?
Kreids should've been traded last year.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Worked so poorly with Hayes.

How are you still allowed to post here?

You have no idea of what these kids will be like. And pontificating on salary structure of a team that has yet to be more fully formed seems silly.

Oh and Kreider can be more than awesome for more than 3 years
