To New York: Shattenkirk
To St louis: Hayes, McIlrath, Gropp.
Is that fair value, or do the rangers need to add more?
NYR get a PMD to replace Yandle.
That would be $$$ issues for the Rangers. Would need a complimentary move somewhere else.
I'm only considering that trade if we had time to talk with Shattenkirk about an extension already.
Oof no thanks from the Rangers. I don't think they should trade for Shattenkirk. Just wait and see if he wants to sign with them next summer.
all of the above
the value is more than fair, considering Shatty is a rental.
IF we're doing this, would rather it be for Shatty and conditional pick if he does not return to Rangers.
However, to catch up/recover from prior mistakes, we have to gamble that we can rely on Shattenkirk to trust us, that he will wait s UFA until AFTER the expansion draft and THEN we will give him the sweet deal. We need to get over on that expansion draft protection slot. We have to squeeze opportunity that much to accelerate repair.
The OP offered 3 nice pieces,
Hayes is big young C, need to keep cause of his size
McIlrath - we are moving Girardi. Not clear if that is trade (only realistic deal is to Wings for Jimmy Howard, w/NY adding Raanta at half), or if at the first injury the guy is LTIR, or if we can kick this guy upstairs so he elects to not remain an active player, I think THAT would do it, and have league approval given Girardi's injury history. I don't believe a buy out is an option cause that's 8 years of reduced but continued cap hit. 8 years! So getting back to it, when G is moved, we need McIlrath, who could still really shine. We need to move AV, not McIlrath and others.
Gropp is possibly our bluest blue chip - MAY have Kreider like potential. no.
I think we are better off dealing Zuc/+ to Canes or Ducks for young D, pref RD, but I would consider Zuc and his sweet multiyear for Shattenkirk and his expiring + a conditional rental IF IF IF IF IF it does not defeat my scenario above explained re expansion draft. [dif would be if last time was Rangers or other]
