Frank thinks Edmundson could be acquired for a 3rd or 4th round pick with salary retention. Edmundson played on the Blues Cup team in 2019. The Rangers should be interested.
Would not mind him but wouldn't want to overpay. He's the type they can use. Another defensive dman
 
Out of or final 13 games, we have one apiece vs. Florida, Boston and Colorado.

The remaining 10 are a ton of Metro Meh, with 6 of the final 8 at home.



Good stuff.

what's the deal with him? Why is he falling out of favor in LA?

his numbers look decent. His metrics are good.
Probably tunnel vision and low IQ. Maybe it's conditioning. He's been on their 4th line + 2nd PP unit for years.

They have every incentive to slot him up and he still plays 11 mins a night. Something's off there.
 
I'm not seeing much out there that wows me, I'd prefer to write our own story and use call ups like Othmann, Berard, Jones to plug gaps in the POs. We tried the starstruck approach last year so I want to try the "young, unknown PO hero" approach this year. None of it really matters though, we'll live and die with the stars that have gotten us here and if they show up or not. An Edmundson or Roslovic is not going to move the needle.

I think that’s how I’m looking at things also.
The other flip side is, this looks to be the weakest I’ve seen the east.
 
I wonder why sneaky type moves the Rangers might make, like maybe an off the radar a player no one is being talked about. Ty Dellandrea might be a sneaky move. Think the Blues would move Toropchenko?? He’d be a good option for cheap. Only 24. Maybe Luke Kunin from Sharks?

McDonagh and Trenin for Lindgren, Goodrow, one of Rempe/Edstrom/Berard

Why not?

Rangers going to have too many wings very quickly. Kreider, Panarin, Cuylle, Vesey, Laf, Kakko, Othmann, Berard, Rempe, Edstrom. Plus whatever depth filler you add year over year.

Isn't Trenin much better on the wing than at center?

He's not Goodrow. Good enough.

I don't think you could convince Nashville to have their cake and eat it too going for a playoff spot by asking for Sissons or Novak. Trenin maybe.

The trade is fair . No need to add Rempe, Edstrom, Berard to it. McDonagh does not have the same value he used to be. Overpaid too.

The problem is we don't have much defensive depth. We need to bring in a spare with size. I like Jones, but if there's an injury, I don't want him playing every game in the playoffs.

no moving Ed or Rem

McD, can he still skate? Like at all?

We can think about excess of Ws -> Cs/Ds later
