Value of: Top-6 RW to NYR

[aufheben]

Our current RWs are Lafreniere and Wheeler. Kakko is injured and sucks anyway.

Only if there was a free agent right winger who we could have went after.

Doesn’t prevent trades necessarily.

Looking to add a top6 RW seems like an overreaction.

Hyman for Kakko and a 2nd.

It’s not a reaction to Kakko.

KK does not suck
needs correct linemates for chemistry

and no to Hy guy

no to wasting assets

would consider young add like Pinto for proper currency
otherwise stand pat until opportunity knocks

He hasn't performed yet... sure, it's the chemistry.

With Chytil and KK on LTIR we could have signed Kane however that ship has sailed.

while room for improvement
sufficient performance/demonstrated chemistry on the kid line

chemistry can be important

Like less physically gifted LaF, KK will get there
but for now
Cuylle - Chytil - KK

Josh Bailey still ufa

Let that shit keep sailing.

Then I'm not sure what it's a reaction to....

LTIR cap space only lasts until the player comes off LTIR. Both are expected back before the end of the season. Unless Kane was taking like 800k, there was no way.

You never know what injuries could happen through the rest of the season

Do you really want to add players using LTIR then hope that other players get injured so we can stay under the cap?

 

[TGWL]

I like that the Signature is right under the "Our current RW", making it look like Fox is our only current RW.

It's hockey, I don't need to hope other players will get injured. It happens pretty frequently, especially when the medical trainer isn't sending people out there before they recover

 

[Lunatik]

Andrew Mangiapane if you want a guy with a little term?

Or Elias Lindholm if you are seeking more of a rental?

Rangers only win the cup because they were a "Kakko" over the cap.

It’s a reaction to our weakest position lol

We can't afford the cap going forward.
We can't afford the assets it would take to get Lindholm. We would have to trade away a top prospect. Though Lindholm would be a great addition.

Can't take that Mangiapane cap hit for next year, and Lindholm is great but I believe it would cost a very good prospect on top of our 1st, which we can't really do right now since our development system is lacking a bit after graduating so many players and trading away picks the last couple years for playoff runs.

If Lindholm was as simple as something like 1st + Cmelar or some mid prospect like that, then sure a deal would get done. But the Rangers can't afford to add a prospect like Othmann, Sykora, Robertson
