I wouldn't want to move ADA, but if ADA were moved for Glass or Krebs, you could protect an additional D from Seattle and I dont think Glass requires protection? Krebs certainly wouldn't.
 
Looking over Vegas depth at C it looks thin. Can they afford to dump a cost controlled Glass or Krebs? Do we take back salary ? MAF @50%

Rangers do not need Glass, did you not hear, they are getting Eichel by trading Trouba.

Then ADA to Vegas for Krebs and stuff

They were tired of hearing about having too many RD so they are going with just Fox on RD.

:sarcasm:
 
1) Rangers trade Derek Stepan for 7th overall pick to choose Cody Glass or Elias Pettersson
2) Rangers miss out on Glass by one pick, choose Lias Andersson
3) Lias Andersson is disappointment
4) Throw-in to Stepan deal unexpectedly becomes valuable
5) Rangers trade throw-in to Stepan deal to get Cody Glass

So in a sense, we traded for Glass twice.

Throw in Stepan is returned with Andersson going back to Arizona.

Where is the ADA to Vegas chatter coming from?
To sum it up, @Edge like 10 pages back said Vegas called last night and again this morning about him, then later he said they’re interested in Pietrangelo and they could be checking out/making alternate plans if that doesn’t happen and that the Rangers side is they’re gauging interest in ADA
 
Not sure if this was mentioned but last night Friedman said since Buffalo already paid Eichel’s signing bonus, he’s certainly not being traded this year. He also said this basically puts Buffalo on notice regarding Eichel. Too much smoke now for going on a pretty good while.

We’ve spent so much time talking about the draft I feel like we’ve forgotten that free agency starts October 9th

We should start seeing significant movement in between the draft and then.

Eichel isn't being moved this season, period. The forum exploded here last night for no reason. lol
 
Tuch and one of Krebs/Glass for DeAngelo skews heavily in our favor, IMO. Would need more from our side and I would expect to maybe help the Knights with their cap jam. Great fit from our side, however.


I suppose if NYR traded Strome they might be able to take back Stastny for his final year. Not recommending that course of action but it's one possibility.
 
Who is better out of Krebs and Glass?
They're very different but I would say offensively Glass is better. Krebs however plays the kind of hockey that one could argue we "need" more of. To me, acquiring Glass is kind of weird with Chytil in the system. One of them would probably get moved to W.

This one is easy to put together;

Krebs or Glass
A second piece of value -- a high pick or perhaps Tuch
A defenseman currently under contract (Vegas has to move some salary out)

This represents a great opportunity for the Rangers with their current draft position and asset base to get a future #2 center.

Bob or others, if we were to guess a LD is coming back in this trade with Vegas - who would it be?
