Jesper Fast has won the PPA in 5 out of 6 seasons with the Rangers. Only missing out as a rookie to 42-goal Rick Nash.

Nash gets so much hate but I'd say he's the 3rd best Rangers winger in the salary cap era behind Jagr and Panarin

We've already revisited Trouba and Strome debates this week. We are not doing Nash and Glass again. I regret saying anything.

I see what you're doing here, trying to slowly push the conversation to Jessiman.
I'm game. Should have taken Getzlaf.

Zero individual accolades over 15 years. Basically Jessiman but more expensive and longer tenure.

At least Jessiman won ECAC rookie of the year.
the cap might force our hands but he is really the perfect veteran leader to teach the young players the right way to play
I think my love of Hank has died with that monster hometown discount he gave us. Plus I can't stand goalies that show the emotions so much. He should do the honorable thing and retire after this playoff run and go back to Sweden. Would obviously make it easier for him to retire if we win the Cup. But with our coach, I am guessing we get outcoached by top coaches.

Meh. I understand the guy that wants to go out on the top of his game, and leave no doubt about his legacy. But I also understand the guy who won't leave the game without a fight, regardless of how far removed from his prime he may be.
I don't think either one is inherently less "honorable".

I have all the time in the world to discuss Jessiman or Montoya.So we cannot discuss Nash or Glass but we go for Jessiman? Oh boy

I bet he is gone. I think he would have signed already in my opinion. no way I give 3 or 4 per year. rather trade his rights at the moment

IDK many teams are up against the cap or having an internal cap. He may not get what everyone is thinking.
Plus he's one of those good guy Swedes. He may want to play out his career here for a few bucks less.

There are plenty of teams who have room.and need guys like him. If he wants to win he needs to take less..but someone will easily offer him 4m. It just won't be on a team that's got a chance to win.
