31 Thoughts: Making sense of Toffoli trade for Canucks - Sportsnet.ca

4. This is good news for the Rangers, who continue to both negotiate with and generate the market for Chris Kreider. Teams I think are interested: Boston, Colorado, New York Islanders and St. Louis (there could be more, obviously).
I think Washington GM Brian MacLellan made a stealth move to see if he could get in on Kreider, but the Dillon trade probably takes him out of it.

24. Julien Gauthier is exactly the kind of player the New York Rangers are ready to take a chance with: a young forward who needs an NHL shot. Fourth in the AHL in goals (26), Gauthier couldn’t crack Carolina’s group and craved a better opportunity. He’s going to get it in Manhattan.

25. If Ryan Lindgren’s getting Brad Marchand’s attention, he’s doing something right.

Not gonna happen.

Im warming up to the Skjei for Trochek idea though.

why does anybody think florida would deal trochek at this point? Seems like a pretty import guy in their core who’d be needed for a playoff run.....

It's rumored they're shopping him.

10. It is rare that top-six centres become available, but Florida’s Vincent Trocheck is generating attention. Age 26, two more years at under $5 million — teams can handle that. Won’t be inexpensive. Trocheck rushed back as quickly as possible from an ankle injury last season, and there is debate about how much mobility that may have cost him. But, again, guys like him aren’t often acquirable.

But they arent offering that so be more realistic.

Their prospect pool is not all that impressive anyways.

I just dismiss this notion that just b/c a team is a rival you can under no circumstance do business with them.

Ok, so say the Offer was Wahlstrom + either the islanders 2020 OR 2021 1st + plus a 3rd that becomes a 2nd if the Islanders make it to the ECF this season...you're simply rejecting it b/c its the Islanders?

And that’s my point. Why would he even be acquireable? Bc some insider clown on the internet made up a rumor that Florida is listening? GTFO.

I’d taken him for sure, but he isn’t going anywhere.

No interest. Not sold on Wahlstrom. PASS.

I get that ‘why worry’ attitude. But some people read ahead.

and who is your concern right now?

Panarin
Zibanejad
Kreider
Buchnevich
Strome
Fast
Lemieux
Chytil
Gauthier

that's 9 guys that need to be protected...2 guys probably won't be here past this week, a 3rd likely won't be here come time for the expansion draft. so who are we getting worked up over not being able to protect Howden? Di Giuseppe? McKegg?

the only player to be concerned about at this moment is lindgren which this trade has no impact on...if we get to the point that we have more than 7 forwards that matter that need to be protected then I'll worry. till then its just worrying/complaining for the sake of it.
