Confirmed with Link: Kravtsov requests trade

[Pawnee Rangers]

I honestly cannot blame him. His logic of looking up and seeing all top-two line wing spots spoken for, is evident.

I honestly cannot remember an instance where a legitimate top 6 forward didn't get a legit shot to show what he could do during the course of a season.

 

[Kravtsov420]

Kuemper and Dvorak are proven NHL veterans ... Kravtsov is the exact opposite.

Listen, I'd love for a 1st rd pick coming back, but I think it's really unrealistic.

I disagree, I think there are teams in similar situations with good prospects who need a change of scenery. Example, brannstrom in Ottawa, LA has too many center prospects, possibly Zadina

Vegas has inquired about Kravtsov. They didn't like Drury's ask.

Krebs?

 

[bobbop]

Krebs?

Don't know who but Drury was told no.

Doesn't mean they couldn't circle back here.

Maybe it was Stone with cash retained!

 

[TheBPA]

Krebs?

Vegas won't include Krebs or Hague in a deal for Eichel. I doubt they are giving up either one for Kravtsov, even if he is first in on the forecheck and first back on the backcheck 95% of the time and doesn't need to breathe heavily at the end of his shifts.

If that's his logic though a private trade request would work best. That AND playing in Hartford and playing well.

Refusing to report to Hartford and running back to Russia is not the way to handle this situation if you're trying to get traded because you don't see enough opportunity, which is bullshit anyway because there's nothing wrong with being a skilled 3rd line player so just bc he doesn't see a spot for him on the depth chart specifically in the top 6 doesn't mean he won't have ample opportunity.

C'est la vie though, hopefully we can get a good return for him.

Don’t do it RKY, Don’t do it…

I have to!

The Drury clearly asked for Ryder, Halak, and a 2nd.

I’m sorry it had to be done!

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Dylan Strome is good. Not sure why people don't like him. Well I do know why. Because he's slow and below average defensively. Nevermind the fact he scored over 2 pts/60 in back to back full seasons. in 1819 and 1920. He would be a very worthwhile add. He's skilled and very good offensively. Presumably this so-called great head coach Gallant should be able to teach him how to be better on the defensive side.

I would love to buy low on Dylan Strome. He'd be a good 3rd liner on this team.

Plus the absolute meltdown the fanbase would have over Strome's brother being acquired would be can't miss entertainment.

 

[NoQuitInNewMexico]

Dylan's like Erik Brannstrom (Brannstrome?) where the acquiring team will probably win that trade if his value's as low as it seems, but it would be a tough fit for the Rangers. We have our own slow playmakers, offense-only centers who can't win faceoffs, green power-play defensemen...

 

[leetch99]

I don't think that Gallant reaches out to Kravtsov without Drury's consultation and go-ahead. And it's a smart move to try to utilize someone who doesn't have the acrimonious history with the player.

Deleted.

Krebs?

Too bad Tuch is out LT. He'd be my ask. And obviously knows Gallant.

Word has it that he also fed a whole boatload of people with one loaf of bread and one fish.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Tuch is probably available in an Eichel swap, or in a deal for another 1c (if there is one available), but I can't see them dangling him where the return is a reclamation project who's a pouty RW.

 

[TheDirtyH]

I'll be impressed if drury manages to finally not sell for 00.50 on the dollar

Stop interfering with my dream!

 

[Boris Zubov]

Stop interfering with my dream!

Mine too. I'm the king of pissing in my own cheerios.

 

[leetch99]

So Kypreos says there are up to 15 teams interested and Brooks says there is lukewarm interest.

Pick your guy and run.

Bob.....you have been around hockey all your life at many levels.....you know which guy knows .

 

[NYSPORTS]

Maybe it was Stone with cash retained!

yeah, we need a Captain

 

[bleedblue94]

Does hertl for VK + make sense right now for both teams?

 

[duhmetreE]

Krebs? did you get a hint? It's probably absurd

 

[malcb33]

Does hertl for VK + make sense right now for both teams?

Not if you're SJ...

 

[duhmetreE]

Kravtsov + for PLD
Kravtsov for Copp
Kravtsov for Chibrikov+pick

 

[bleedblue94]

Not if you're SJ...

If you've listened to his interviews regarding resigning it's very clear he is not resigning there. Obviously there'd have to be a decent plus in the offer, but I think VK is a solid first piece to a trade like that
