Of course not
Overpayment required

If Ott offered 3d, 5th, another 1st, 3 2ds and Gruden, NYR might consider, might still decline

And per Melnyk, Ott wont go that way
 
We can't afford Chabot at 8 mil unless you want to take Hank back and buy him out.

1st overall + Hank + Carolina 1st

for Chabot + 3rd overall + 5th overall

That I would probably do. I'm sure Ottawa would consider it an overpayment, but that's what it would take IMO.

Chabot is exactly the LD the Rangers need but they wouldn't be able to fit his $8M under the cap. The Rangers go with Laf and wait for Lundqvist, Staal, and Smith to come off the books.
 
For me it would take 3OA + 5OA, White, and Chabot.

If your offer isn't including 3+5, it isn't a real offer.

This would be an enormous overpayment. Laf is a great prospect but certainly not generational.

Not a fan if the G word
Fact is, though, Laf is probably the best draft eligible skater since AMatt, (Sandin might be close) and for a few years out.

For a longtime middling franchise hoping to reverse its path, a homegrown(ish) instant superstar is worth a huge pot of gold.
But my proposals have never insisted they take from their few young core(Tkachuk, Chabot,...)

Sens have 3 1sts this year, and next year's, and 7! 2ds across '20/'21. And some good prospects not yet established

They, and maybe Buff, have the resources to bundle excessive # of highupside youth to maybe tempt NYR.
But ultimately NYR likely take Laf and move ahead
 
You need to overpay and overpay big.
If I’m Gorton I’m looking at a Lindros type deal minus the 15 million and maybe 1 or 2 players.
We have absolutely no reason to trade Lafreniere. None. We are not winning the cup within a few seasons with any of the names being mentioned including Jack Eichel or Brady Tkachuk.
So if you truly want him and expect to be fired for it...... here’s the cost.

To Ottawa: NYR 2020 1OV

To NYR: OTT 2020 3OV, OTT 2020 5OV, 2021 OTT 1st Rounder, Josh Norris, Lassi Thompson, Brady Tkachuk and Erik Brannstrom.
