Laf + Perreault + 2nd/minor prospect
Kaprizov is still a top 5 winger in this league and they don't often get traded, especially for parts. Kakko looks mediocre, Chytil is constantly injured. The only intriguing part is Laf, so going to include that.
If you look at what Lindholm brought back (Kuzmenko, Brzustewicz, Jurmo, a 1st and a conditional draft pick), that's pretty much the basis of what Kaprizov will probably bring back in a trade. Chytil, Kaapo, Laf doesn't touch that given that Chytil is injured, Kakko is mediocre and Laf is a decent top 6 forward.
The structure is high level winger, a top prospect, a mid prospect, a high draft pick and another draft pick. Given that Kaprizov is a winger, the return is going to be a bit smaller than if he was a center, but given his status as a top 5 winger in the league - his return is still going to be pretty good, especially at the deadline. I'd expect a top 6 winger (Laf), a top prospect (Perreault or Othmann) and probably a 1st or a 2nd and a mid-tier prospect.
Rangers don't have enough cap space, they need to move as much cap as they get.
