Rumor: Chychrun has Soured on Ottawa, Unlikely to Extend

Posted this on the NYR and Ottawa boards. Wonder if we could find the basis of a deal with the Rangers and Sens around Chychrun?

Chychrun LD $4.6 this year and next.

- Schneider RD (RFA) going to get between 2.5-4 based on contract length?
- Goodrow 3 years left at $3.6 & seems like they are errr…eager to get his money off the books. He’s also the kind of veteran Ottawa is looking to add.
I don’t expect offence, I expect grit, effort, and character on our 4th line and we’d eat that salary to make the deal work.

Seems like the Rangers have Fox and captain Trouba ahead of him on the right side, and that they could use a puck moving offensive guy on the left to play with Trouba.
Chychrun is on a great contract this year and next, then could sign longterm with the Rangers.

Thoughts?

Shit offer, I’d rather lose him for nothing

With the new athletic article this is moot now but for the sake of it

Goodrow may be a decent 4th liner and a veteran player, but at 3.6x3 he is a dump, and at his rate its a 2nd + 2nd just to take him so what else you adding lol, because Schneider is not cutting it on his own.

Basically the dump is more or less the same as when Kassian was dumped (2nd + 3rd + moving down from 29 to 32)

I'd take that deal if I were Ottawa
 
I don't see the big deal with Chychrun's dad blocking random nobodies. It's better than picking internet fights with strangers. It doesn't make him "soft".
 
A 2nd or a lotto protected 1st instead of a 4th line cap dump.
If you're Ottawa, aren't you then just hoping to use that 2nd or lotto protected 1st to draft a player like Schneider?

Seems like they'd be better served just trading for Schneider, and rolling with a top 4 of:

Sanderson - Zub
Chabot - Schneider

lol, that’s absurd.
It’s definitely good value, but I don’t claim to be an expert on the Rangers roster construction. Seemed to make sense - fills needs for both teams, Rangers get the best player in the deal and get to dump a contract no one wants.

Ottawa can get a much better deal than that imo.

I kind of thought so, but also though it works for what ottawa is trying to accomplish.

The 2nd would be in addition to Schneider. Chychrun is worth more than a 19th overall prospect who has stalled a little in development.
