The 14-15 bottom six was worlds better than the slop we currently have there, ill give you that. But those teams wouldn't score nearly enough to beat the current Rangers. They struggled to score more than 3 goals a game in the playoffs, hence why Henrik had to be perfect. Not that any of it matters

That arguments makes the point that it is the bottom-six that needs to be fixed if you want deep playoff runs/to win.

You need everything to win it all.

We lack LHD depth, bottom-6 depth and maybe one top-6 player, if we want a deep run.

I'd rather just see what this roster does this year without additions, go for it next year.

I'd be very wary in dealing with Gorts if i'm Drury. He has a good grasp of the players on both sides, while Drury is only working with half the info.
 
We need 2 things. It's real simple.
1) Energy. A guy willing to get in on the puck first. Do the grunt work and do it well. Your Hagel's and Gourde's of the world. We theoretically can add 2 of them to replace Gauthier and even Chytil. Chytil could and should be that guy but he's soft and lost.

2) If Jones doesn't work out, a puck mover.

I'd give Kravtsov and a 2nd for Hagel.
 
Complex Rangers equation Chris Drury faces at NHL trade deadline

brooks throws more names at the wall, hypothesizes that Dach could be had with Lundqvist as a piece.

also points out that even if we acquire JTM, we are likely to lose him after next season for nothing.

I love how in 1 week Nils was close to holding no value/throw in because he's playing in the AHL and now can get some other teams high end prospect. Don't get me wrong I would 100% prefer Nils for any of them (except Hayton) over 1 1/2 seasons of Miller and the other assets we'd use up. Nils for Turcotte/Dach would be a great deal for both teams.
