Speculation: Roster Building Thread - Part XIII (Nanaki edition)

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Rangers need to seriously consider buying out Chytil in the offseason if they can't trade him. He is made of glass and is still 25 and under so the buyout is only a third. Rangers would have another 4 mill in cap to spend upgrading the defense and/or 3C.

There are about 11 or 12 other players who deserve to be bought out before Chytil's name comes up

Didn't Edstrom play center at some point? Let him have some reps and see what we've got to work with, even if it means giving Mika more 5v5 time while we see what we have.
Theoretically Cuylle-Edstrom-KK could be a very useful line

Yeah, Rangers don't do that. If you were drafted as a W, you will play wing until the day you die (or leave the organization for a smarter one)

If they’re gonna tolerate Lindgren being injured half the time he’s under contract they might as well do it with Chytil. At least the teams better with him in the ten games he plays

1, Kakko isn't fast enough to play center. otherwise 100% agree.
2. Pittsburg isnt moving crosby, and he's not waiving. They're absolutely not moving him intradivision.

In fairness, Derek Stepan played center, and Kakko is definitely faster than even Stepan's best
