Rumor: Rangers willing to trade Lafreniere for a young elite talent with team control

[1909]

They'll never get the value they want for him because no one will pay for a guy that's shown nothing at the NHL level. So, it'll never happen, but I'm sure the Rags would love to deal him for an upgrade.

Lafrenière for Kotkaniemi ? About the same value and the same production.

 

[BatVader]

Necas straight up

 

[CupInSIX]

Turk promotes himself to GM & does Hague & Carrier for Lafreniere.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Lafrenière for Kotkaniemi ? About the same value and the same production.

They want an upgrade though and are banking on residual 1OA value that doesn't exist. Unless they add big, but doubt even then Lafreniere can be the centerpiece.

 

[BLNY]

Habs fans have to be vibrating in their chairs with excitement at the possiblity. lol.

Nope.

 

[Maitz]

Caufield for Lafreniere who say no ?

 

[sansabri]

Caufield for Lafreniere who say no ?

who do you think says no

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Only have 2 and they aren't available. Romanov+ is the best offer

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Caufield for Lafreniere who say no ?

Habs...

 

[MarkusKetterer]

Caufield for Lafreniere who say no ?

Right now, probably the Habs. Him and Suzuki are probably the only non-starters for the Habs (and this years pick).

 

[SimonEdvinssonAtSix]

Let me tell you about this guy named Zadina... see here, He's gonna fill nets with pucks. Said so himself. I guess you could have this puck filler of nets for the low price of Lafreniere!

-Yzerman probably.

 

[SniperOnTheWing]

why teams rush kids up is beyond me . yes some times it works , but nobody knows how many times it has messed players up and ide bet its lots . mean while theres no harm in not bringing them up until age 21

Going back to dominate the Q again would have done nothing for his development either. Too young to play in the AHL. Where do you send him?

 

[Kcoyote3]

Hertl for Laf confirmed

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

Laf and a 1st to Seattle for Gourde

 

[roman star]

the one place i surely dont send him is amongst fully physically developed adult greatest hockey players on earth types until he himself is physically mature . might you understand the reason for that ?

 

[5cotland]

As I suspected.

 

[Some Other Flame]

To the Nucks for say Hoglander and Horvat

Rangers add some other stuff

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

TFP are a bunch of clowns.

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

Lafy, Lundkvist, Jones, Kravtsov, Chytil, Barron 1st in 2022 and 2ed (blues), for Zegras, McTavish and Lindholm??

Bring Zegras home

 

[SI90]

But he’s working on his fighting so he could add some value.

 

[Big Empty]

who do you think says no

NYR

 

[MarkusKetterer]

As I suspected.

Now I want it to be true just so Brooks weeps. That or pretzels himself as to why the Rangers ripped off the other team.

 

[Garbageyuk]

Habs fans have to be vibrating in their chairs with excitement at the possiblity. lol.

Laf is a bust, don’t want him. I’d begrudgingly give a 2nd round pick to gamble on like the 10% chance he becomes a top-6 player. I see him as most likely a career 3rd liner at best.

 

[Stephen]

So the Rangers are willing to trade Lafreniere for someone that Lafreniere was projected to be. Slow down, let me write this down.

 

[SI90]

Not that they would admit it but staple doesn’t BS. Was probably told no by someone in organization. That being said, everyone has a price.
Not actively shopping him but GMs have a responsibility to pick up the phone and listen
