I think the Rangers would do a deal. I think Buffalo is less enthusiastic right now without Lafreniere or Kakko being on the table.

Edmonton & Chicago talks centered around AG?
The "Table" is BUF's purported ask. I would give them 5 NHL level pieces, and a couple of futures. Say somewhere in the vicinity of 6-8 pieces all together. Not necessarily the pieces in your post, but I would give BUF 5 NHL level pieces.
all on the table doesn't mean they would all be included...and no doubt that is in the context of an eichel deal. he isn't going to come free. if you want to make kakko, lafreniere, fox and shesterkin off the limits than basically everyone else has to be possible or don't bother calling. the question is how many would need to be involved...but individually they each would be.

I think at least one, maybe two of the on the table list would have to be included. Is that Chytil, Kravtsov and 22 as a foundation? Maybe, we'll see.
The rumored challenge for Buffalo is that they "need" someone who can come in right away and put up points for them.

Who said anything about committing four years to the wrong guy or operating in win now mode? There are going to be plenty of options available to the Rangers. Jack Eichel NOT being the choice doesn't make it that player the wrong guy. Especially if you take into account player cost.
If he can he had for a great deal now, then go for it. If he can be had for a great deal in 9 months, go for it. But you don't wait 9 months to hope things change.

If ADA is a part of the trade, and Strome is moved, that's pretty much close to Eichel's salary (based on what they'd make in 2020/21) --- without tapping into the Staal savings.

the answer is that you don't re-sign mika in 2 years since his new deal will likely be for more than eichel makes. whether that is a smart move can be argued but IMO that is how the cap would work.

Is it absurd to see a situation where the rangers trade from monahan and flip him along with some of those younger assets that you just mentioned? Moving Buch for monahan and then moving monahan ada and some of those young pieces you mentioned for JE? I know that's very NHL 21 ish, but it could be the type of thing that could satisfy a bunch of teams

If we decide to trade Kandre were really going to need someone like Matthew Robertson to really exceed their expectations and become a top pairing Lhd.

Right now, I'd think you're looking at either/or scenarios. Not necessarily a chain reaction where one deal leads to assets that are included in another deal.

Yah I’d have to imagine Kravtsov and/or Chytil (Not sure it’s both)being involved. To me though DeAngelo would be a big big piece for Buffalo to request. That’s a guy you can sell to the fan base as getting a top point producing 24 year old right shot pp qb. I also thought Strome could be involved here.
what if you get Strome DeAngelo Kravtsov/Chytil and number 22 or unprotected 2021
to me you have a very good return there short term and long term.

How on earth can Buffalo sell a JE trade to that fanbase that doesn't bring back Laf or KK.
I can't believe that this is actually a thing.

Will the Oilers chicken out this year like they did last? Oilers wanted to keep their 8 OA from last year and draft a defenseman instead for Buchnevich. Now, perhaps Buchnevich for Oilers’ 14 OA is more comfortable for them. Rangers try for Holloway at that draft position.

I see it in another light. Buffalo might 'overpay' to get Eichel help. I'll take that #8
Buch, Strome and Hajek/Reunanen/#22 for #8
Buch, Strome and Hajek/Reunanen/#22 for #8

RIP, Jimmy.
I guess that is the thing... unless Eichel publicly asks for a trade, how do you sell a deal like that to your fanbase?

It's amazing how much this board gains from our insiders. We're so lucky to have these guys here. Thank you

If I had to guess, I could see Strome going seperately to grab a pick or a support player.
