I'd actually have no complaints with the Rangers trying Kakko at center as long as Chytil also remains a center, move Strome to wing I guess.

If you subscribe to the nothing to lose theory you have a brain that I dont relate to.
 
For me, absolutely not.

But boy do I wish we landed that pick from Edmonton back in 2019.
We should have landed the whole top 10 honestly. We had nothing to lose.

Would anyone trade laff for Zegras straight up right now? No smart ass answers allowed.For entertainment purposes only.

It's not the craziest idea, so in hypothetical bananaland, I'd need a plus attached to Zegras, and I think they'd hate that.

I would have asked what LA would offer to swap #1 & #2 before the picks were made, and then take Byfield...but not after making the pick.
 
You're Anaheim, you're a year+ into a rebuild and your prospect pool is pretty thin featuring Drysdale, Perrault, and your best blue chip C prospect Zegras. What does it take for you to trade your best prospect, who has only grew in value since you drafted him a year and a half ago?

The answer should be he's not available barring ridiculous overpayment.
Oh, totally agree. It was just a hypothetical from our side. In reality, it would probably be a no from both teams regarding the original thought.
 
Hartford plays at 1 pm on Saturday. The Rangers play at 7 pm. If the coaching staff isn't off the Covid list by then, Knoblauch and Murphy will have to coach both games. Have any coaches ever done that?
I think the announcers said this was the 2nd time, idk if it was ever or this season, that what happened tonight happened. I wonder too if the staff could coach both the Wolf Pack & Rangers games, good thing both games aren't at 1 or 7 Lol.

I don't get the obsession with Zegras. Yes, he's a great prospect but not on the same level as Kakko or Laf.

Lundkvist for Zegras makes sense though from a value-perspective. I doubt Anaheim trades Zegras away though

The only team in the league I see that has young center depth and might be a good trade partner is Los Angeles. I could speculate on a number of trades that would help both teams.

The problem is not hypothesizing a trade. The problem is finding a partner who has what the Rangers need.
