Proposal: EDM - NYR

[bernmeister]

Shesterkin turned down eight years @ $11 Million AAV from the Rangers. He isn't signing in Edmonton for less.

Also Schaefer was traded already.

Shesty wants glory on top of $$$
In my over the top offer to LA, we sign him 12.2 x 5 and eat 2m per, so effectively 10.2 by receiving team.

Howev, that was for Byfield
Oil package seems it can only be late 1sts as a core, +
not enuf

I don't know if Byfield is available for a goalie, Bern. I guess I can't be 100% sure of that as I am not a Kings fan, but to an outside observer their core is getting old and Byfield is part of a very good group of young players establishing themselves.

an elite vez guy is not just "a goalie"
but that said
it is not just Igor
it is Igor + KAM + acquired Nemec for Byfield + picks
2 young D + elite G entering his prime warrant top young C

Shesterkin sign 14 Million x 5 with the Oilers and Oilers knock out Avalanche or Stars or Jets in playoff semi?

He won't sigh for less than the max term, at least that is my understanding.

Big risk signing a goalie long term for max dollars.

I would rather get Shesterkin for a cup run, win it, and let him walk in free agency.

... ?

 

[TFHockey]

Not giving up 4 picks for a UFA goalie that we have zero hope of extending due to our cap situation.

Huge risk. Huge. However... if it brings the Oilers a Cup wouldn't you do it?

Shesterkin walks in free agency, again a huge risk for Edmonton. But if they just won wouldn't other players want to come here even more than they do now?

Op is going to get cooked for this. Cmon man be better.

1st 26
2nd 26
1st 27
Stu Skinner
Sam O'Reilly (draft pick this year )
Victor Arvidsson
Future considerations

Let's gettir done !

The only guy who 'cooked' over this was the fella who said "Maybe I'd do it for Draisaitl" if that tells you anything.

His leverage is disappearing before his eyes. You can say NYR have been bad and thats true, but after turning down the money, he's hasn't had that same performance that can demand top money like that. I think his ask will have to come down if he wants a long term contract. I can't see anybody going in on that 11.6 or whatever value.

If Edmonton offered this I’d take it and run. The Rangers cannot afford to re-sign Igor, not because of the cap necessarily but because it would signal this team is content with mediocrity for the foreseeable future.

I mean, realistically no one would trade that much for him, but to even talk about it on HF you have to start with an overpay and go from there. Otherwise it's just a flame-fest.

I hadn't realized Shesterkin had struggled this season. The Rangers are in a playoff position (just barely) and it was my understanding goaltending was a big reason why.

I agree, no team is offering multiple 1sts for a rental.

As far as the goaltending, overall it is the only reason why the rangers are near a playoff spot right now, but Igor has struggled for a few weeks. Even so he still has a game like against the Flyers where the Rangers should have given up 7 or 8 goals and he held it at 2.

 

[ManofSteel55]

Shesterkin is amazing, and we certainly need an upgrade in net, but we can't afford that big of an upgrade. The cap doesn't allow for three stars of this caliber to be locked up on the same team like that. For this to be worthwhile for Edmonton, even if it was plausible, we would need to be able to sign Shesterkin long term, to a salary that isn't going to cripple the team in the short AND long term. I just don't see a plausible way for this to happen, and the only possible way would be to include Darnell Nurse and Stuart Skinner to the Rangers with no extra cap coming back, and we all know that isn't going to happen for numerous reasons.

 

[McFlash97]

Didn't realize Shesterkin was UFA after this season. In that case take out 1 First rounder and throw in Kane along with Arvidsson. With Jeff Skinner off the books, and cap going up. Easily be able to afford Shesterkin and another low cost fast winger.
