Proposal: (COL) Rantanen for (NYR) Shesterkin

[benfranklin]

We had this thread two months ago. Nothing has changed.

Hasnt Igor turned down $88M since then? Kindof a lot has changed then, no?

They are not getting Landy back, let alone at 80%

The % who knows, but we are optimistic he will be back still.

Rs have to EVENTUALLY move on from Igor due to cap reality.
I see short term 12.2 x 5 gives him what he wants
BUT
he has to capitulate to bern and no NMC, reasonable extensive NTCs

the prob here is not quality of currency in your offer.
Prob is it is not currency Rs should accept.
We want/need quality youth
Rant is no that.

If a good enough add from another team, a 3 way, that is possible

Rs can ensure team taking now can negotiate beforehand, be assured he is extended as agreed, no surprises

first avenue should be LAK who want him BAD
Shesty + retained Zib as core for Byfield

compete with that...

That's a ridiculous offer,, have you had any positive responses from any Kings fans.

I know you have been pushing for Byfield but I don't think you will get that quality of a player for Shesterkin.

I think someone made the thread not long after that report.

Ok. I think it might have been the main Igor thread and Rantanen became a big talking point.

Date wise, I was mainly pointing out that was reported 1 month ago and you said 2. I didnt research any more than that.

I could add to the OP that this is all is reliant on the Rangers not willing to go above 8x$11.

Goalies don't hold that kind of value, especially when they want to get paid 12M. Easily would take Rantanen at that price over Shesterkin, and nothing against him, elite goalie.

I'd consider Byfield for Shesty at 8X8.
12.5 is too high to leave enough cap to build a contender.
