Why are we trading Fox for a 13 year old as the main piece?

Could we just, perhaps, take a measured approach and trade the guys who will either be gone this year or next or who are the ones needed to be upgraded upon before trading someone like Fox or Lafreniere?
If Drury just traded these guys in the next month:
Smith
Lindgren
Vesey
I would even take that as a move in the right direction. At least they are noticing that the team isn't going anywhere this season and are starting to recoup some assets.

There's a big difference in playing D half rink vs playing defense on the full rink. Beyond that, players don't look to get hammered in their own zone and then just ice the puck 5 on 5. On the PK, you have typically 1 guy to beat with a 2 on 1 after forcing a turnover. 5 on 5, after puck possession/loose pucks, they're flying the zone and going. Which is a problem with this team but defense on the pk can't be compared to overall game defense.
He is still mad at the Rangers for denying his report that the Rangers were shopping or looking to trade Lafreniere. A few weeks ago after a Rangers loss, Staple wrote Lafreniere has not done much since signing the contract extension. The entire team has collapsed and he doesn't mention the others who are still complaining about Goodrow and Trouba. Only Lafreniere.

For the now, club is officially sitting on the outside of the Wild Card spot. Isles play today. Flyers play today. Pens play today. Isles are 1pt behind. Pens are 2pts behind. Rangers play Buffalo tomorrow. Sabres are worse then the Rangers. If the Ranger fail to win tomorrow does Laviolette finally go on the hot seat?
Rangers do play better when they play an engaged physical game. Rangers were better with Rempe in the lineup
What did he do now lol

What we could do, is try and find him an ideal partner like pretty much the rest of the teams with a superstar caliber #1 Dman are trying to do. Because he hasn't had a good defensive partner so far in his career.
Do not be so sure about that.
It’s really weird. I remember Staple having the reputation as one of the best beat writers in the league when he was exclusively covering the Isles but now I’m wondering if he acted like a jabroni then too.

Too bad the NYR organization can't draft/develop a player(s) who honor the franchise and become the face of the franchise... maybe because it doesn't have one?
There really isn't a player from the 3rd pairing to the fourth line to the first line that is a true leader, that embodies the identity of they NYR?
People laugh at mentioning Messier.. and believe me i get it... but you need that type(S) in your lineup.. throughout the line up.
Seems like the MO is always waiting for "X" player from another team to sign/get traded to NY to save them?

I mean, for better or worse, their last two starting goalies are who they’ve chosen to be the face of the franchise. I don’t think I agree with the approach, but that’s the way it is.

The idea of trading Fox isn’t dumb in and of itself. It’s only dumb because the only worthwhile targets would be unavailable, but if that weren’t the case I would trade him for MacAvoy ++ or a similar culture shifting move within that vein.

what exactly is culture shifting about trading him for a defenseman that's not only older, but worse at everything?
