Confirmed Trade: [COL/NYR] Ryan Lindgren (50% retained), Jimmy Vesey, Hank Kempf, for Juuso Parssinen, Calvin de Haan, 2025 2nd round pick, 2025 4th round pick

[Viqsi]

Pars isn't with the Preds any longer.

I know. That's exactly my point. We pretty much gave him away, so if someone else manages to get a decent return...

Every Rangers trade is a chance to revisit the list of people deemed unavailable for Jack Eichel and enjoy them being sold off for hilariously less.

Come on down Ryan Lindgren!

 

[JD86]

Yep. Young players like Parssinen.

Who has been given up on by 2 teams now. One that is run as well as any in the league.

 

[ViD]

I thought Rangers fans liked Lindgren ?

 

[Viqsi]

There's a 2nd in there? Okay, I think Trotz is going to get to live.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Rangers are retaining half of Lindgren's salary.

Welp, that confirms the Rangers are punting on this season. Prob for the best anyway, team sucks. Still kinda sad, there will be no playoff push even if they’d be an easy 1st round exit

Parssinen isn’t a bad get.

Lindgren is hardly an NHL player these days, idk what Colorado is doing here…

 

[FoxysExpensiveNYDigs]

Lindgren moving on is addition by subtraction for the Rangers. Now Laviolette can't play him with Fox anymore.

Have you missed all the anti-Lindgren posts from Rangers fans the past two years? lmaoo

 

[glenngineer]

I know. That's exactly my point. We pretty much gave him away, so if someone else manages to get a decent return...

Our GM isn't that bright.

 

[Ararana]

Chris MacFarland is low key one of the worst GMs in the league.

Hes closer to being done than he is being useful

Lindgren was never mentioned in the Eichel deal IIRC. But whatever

 

[HockeyVirus]

Rangers will do everything except fire Laviolette eh?

 

[Bone Density]

 

[Empoleon8771]

Hank Kempf sounds like a WWII Nazi general

 

[JD86]

Our GM isn't that bright.

Trotz stinks so far, but a 3rd for a waiver eligible Parssinen is probably a small win. Maybe his only win

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

I thought Rangers fans liked Lindgren ?

We respect him for the player that he was and for being a warrior, but he's clearly on the decline. Similar to Dan Girardi and Marc Staal.

 

[Crease]

Lindgren and Vesey are addition by subtraction for the Rangers. Their reputation is better than their product.

 

[lionsDen]

Well this is shit

 

[DingDongCharlie]

This was a horrible deal for Colorado. Vesey isn’t producing and Lindgren is completely washed. He’s not the shutdown D that he once was or even close.

 

[Ignite111]

Literally built a career off being carried by Adam Fox. Arguably one of the worst defensemen in the league.

You mean now that he’s on your team anymore the worst in the league

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

We'll see. The picks feel like quite a bit given up by the Avs.


Definitely think Lindgren will look better in a reduced role with the Avs and he's still going to be an upgrade over CDH who might be the worst player in the league this year.... But yeah, Rangers probably did quite well to get a 2nd out of this honestly.

He was never part of the discussion though....?
