Trading for Tkachuk means one of Panarin or Kreider is out the door somewhat soon. Having like 25+ million locked into the LW ain’t gonna work
 
Losing Laf would hurt. I'd try to send Igor to a 3rd team, and have that team pony up a blue-chip prospect to send to Ottawa.

NYR: Brady
OTT: Miller, Perreault (😢), Othmann, Blue-Chip Prospect from SJS/BUF/DET/MTL
SJS/BUF/DET/MTL: Igor
 
I wouldn’t trade Laffy

A combo of Perreault, Othmann, Kakko, Lindgren, KAM and/or picks.
Problem with Perreault is he's literally the only top 6 RW in the system. at lesat if you trade an Othmann or Laf, you're trading natural LWers for a natural LW. and Panarin/Cuylle will probably still be here.

Brady Tkachuk is so f***ing weird looking. Is he even actually related by blood to Keith or Matt? He looks adopted. Can't we get someone normal-looking?

Frankenstein Tkachuk

Half-jokingly this could very well be a requirement of the FO. We never look like the Islanders or the Canes aesthetically.

also for all the chatter here I kind of doubt Drury is looking for a big blow up and reset. He wants this team to right itself and make the playoffs and push again. I don't think he's willing to give up on the season now, he's trying to cut dead weight and make the team play better, not tank

Panarin should be gone too if the team is being blown up. He's worth a metric ton with money retained for two playoff runs.

Dallas. Panarin could pull Johnston or Stankoven plus some.

Perreault is the only guy I wouldn’t want to trade for Tkachuk honestly. Combination of team control and upside is too great as well as he’s a natural Right wing.
 
Drury looks like a bum right now. I get the whole situation with Trouba is complicated and he's playing like shit, but it sends the wrong message when you're willing to put your captain on waivers just because he has a M-NTC and he refuses to be traded. It looks bad to the players, fans, and the rest of the league.
 
Someone give me the latest. I can't keep up with like 40 pages this morning.
Trouba is being traded or waived, his choice

Larry drops an absolute bombshell that not only is this just the beginning, B. Tkachuk is firmly in the Rangers' crosshairs

Kreider made cryptic comments about Trouba that annoyed a lot of people

that's it, mostly.
