Value of: Cost for NYR to swap Hayton Schmaltz Kerfoot for Zibanejad Smith Rempe?

[lanceuppercut75]

to Utah Hockey Club
Mika Zibanejad (6y @ $8.50m)
Reilly Smith (expiring @ $3.75m)
Matt Rempe (expiring but RFA @ $0.82m) waivers 2025
( Rangers add, you tell me what the fair price is )
TOTAL CAP = $13.07m

to New York Rangers
Barrett Hayton (2y then RFA @ $2.65m)
Nick Schmaltz (2y @ $5.85m)
Alex Kerfoot (expiring @ $3.50m)
TOTAL CAP = $12.00m

This move helps the Rangers move on from Zibanejad's huge contract as he's declining. It makes the team younger, provides more cap and roster flexibility long-term, and opens up $1.07m in cap space for this season.

What would NYR have to give to UTA to make this a fair trade?

Not happening; why would Utah piss on their kids and throw up on there selves?

Schmaltz and Kerfoot aren't kids. Hayton is young-ish but they're getting back Rempe who is young. The pieces NYR add on would be the reason UTA hypothetically agrees. A 1st round pick would likely be going to UTA, which is technically a 17 or 18 year old kid.

They aren’t the kids but are good middle age vets (for the kids) for a team that’s heading in the right direction.

I don’t think NY would pay the price to lose Zibanajeds contract and flush out Rempe as well.

So many bodily functions in one post. Do they also have a runny nose?

Just a low fever.

Gross, Zib has negative value. Rempe isnt even an nhl player.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

As an outsider Zibby would be a cap dump now wouldn’t he?

As a Stars fan I’d prefer a Kadri over Zibanajed trade, work your magic Nill.

Nothing in the OP implies that he doesn't...

A cap dump who COULD turn it around and be a decent 2nd line center for Utah... or not. An overpaid high-cap reclamation project with 5.5 years of term (and buyout-proof contract).

Kerfoot and Smith are a wash, Kempe maybe worth a 4th, Rangers add at least a first for someone to take Mika, plus another first for Schmaltz and a 2nd for Hayton

2 x 1sts and 2nd to Utah and 4th to Rangers to balance it out

No one is taking Zibs contract the guy has 6 years remaining at a premium and is totally cooked.

Why are you trading the embodiment of the New York Rangers in Matt Rempe?

 

[Schemp]

LOL! Makes no sense for Utah.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

The OP's avatar checks out since he's going to get crucified in this thread. No way Utah does this.

did you say Kempe is worth maybe a 4th? LMAO

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

This puts Utah in another rebuild situation, which would be unacceptable to the franchise. The package from NY arguably has no value at all (and that Zib contract is going to be UGLY), and your only currency to make it work is draft picks, which you don't have enough of. This trade proposal is laughably one-sided, even before considering what the other team needs.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

This is just impossibly bad for Utah.

 

[Michoulicious]

6 years of Mika is a big no no lol

 

[samabam]

I am pretty sure we are talking about Rempe and not Kempe here

 

[Ciao]

What did Utah do to deserve this?

I hope that was just a typo lol

If not, the Islanders will up that offer for Adrian Kempe by making it a 3rd and including depth center Jean Gabriel Pageau.
