Proposal: Free agency edition Trade Rumours/Proposals [MOD - Stay on Topic] 5

[BigRig4]

Whoever acquires Kreider is in for a bad time, unless it's something like Perron for Kreider.

He is about to fall off a cliff. Add in that he clearly doesn't want to be traded, to the point that Friedman claimed that Kreider is calling teams to disclose his injuries and dissuade them from trading for him.

So whoever gets him is getting a declining hurt player who may not be that motivated based on the circumstances.

If they trade him without cap coming back, it will be something like the Trouba trade. They will get a late pick.

That second para is crazy, I didn’t know that.

Friedman Suggests That Chris Kreider Sent a Warning to All Teams to be Aware Before Trading for Him

Over the last week, the Rangers have let it be known several players are available via trade but star Chris Kreider is attempting to block teams from trading for him

There are direct quotes in that summary.

He very clearly doesn't want to deal with moving cities. Someone will take him off of his past reputation, but I don't think the Rangers are going to get value for him without taking back a bad contract. He also has a 15 team trade list. We don't know which teams are on the list, but generally players put Canadian teams like Ottawa on their no-trade list.

Look at the quotes and the Athletic article. Kreider didn't call anybody.

I wonder if Kreider would be willing to go to NYI, NJD or Buffalo. The move wouldn't be too drastic.

NJD and Buffalo have the assets, and NYI loves aging/declining vets

The rare situation where the GM is a jerk but the players are also babies.


Glad it ain't us

 

[Ouroboros]

The current Rangers situation is the rare flipside of being a preferred destination for players.

Why?


I don't see that happening for either player.

Reasonable get.

Can score. Plays hard. Nice winger for stutzle.

Put him on waivers and a team will pick him up and then trade him again at the deadline so he can move twice if he doesn’t want to play ball with the Rangers
