[Friedman] In the aftermath of their 6-2 loss in Edmonton on Saturday, the Rangers have made it very clear they are interested in making moves and shaking up their roster. Among the names indicated are Chris Kreider and Jacob Trouba, although other options will be considered.

  2. The Trouba trade never happened because he doesn’t want to leave NY. It was never an issue with the Rangers willingness to trade him.

  3. After looking through their contracts, Steve should go get Ryan Lindgren, he would be a huge help. He’s 26 and better than all of our d but 2 and plays the left side so he could in theory slot in next to ASP.

  6. Detroit is on trouba’s no-trade list…I do t know who he can be traded to but it isn’t Detroit, and after signing Raymond and Seider…we no longer have the cap space for him anyways. Maybe something changes in the offseason, but really the roster you see today is likely the roster you’ll see at the end of the season. Maybe Kane gets traded to a contender as a selloff at the trade deadline, but he’s really the only player I could see other teams wanting that we’d consider trading.

  8. We already have enough scraps and cast offs.

    We don’t need more veteran presence and intangibles.

    Unless they’re trading Zinabejad I’m not interested

  9. Trouba literally has worse underlying xga numbers than petry. He does not fix this teams d zone woes, it’d be cool to have a big hitter which this team doesn’t have but imma pass on that even if it was possible lol

  10. Trouba will probably do what Phil Kessel did and put the 7 metro teams on his approved trade list so the Penguins were forced to trade him within the division or have him waive it.

  11. Kreider for Kane and throw in Michael Assmussen. Kane and Kreider are left handed wingers and Kreider is great with board battles. He’s a menace in front of the net and gets a lot of goals from crafty deflections. Kreider and Kasper on a line would be awesome, imo. Also, throw in Gustafsson and bring up AlJo full time.

  12. What ever the trade, Stevie throw in that future considerations the Sharks gave you. That will get any trade over the hump. /s

  13. I doubt he’d be one of the pieces they’d move, but I’d be interested in prying Kakko away. He fits are window, I feel like he’d fit our dreaded “system”, and seems like he could use a change of scenery.

  14. All this Trouba talk…because us taking on defensemen no one else wants has worked out real well for us recently.

  16. Trade Krieder? I see he has 9G 0A this year but did I miss something, is he not one of their most valuable players, net-front guys, and reliable scorers in the last several years? Red Wings fan here

  18. No thank you to either, we need to stop cockblocking our prospects path with washed up players.

  20. It’s too late. Steve has so many bad contracts there’s nothing he can do at this point to turn it around. Were cooked

  22. Petry, Gustafsson, and Copp packaged for either Fox or Trouba. Send picks too I don’t care

  23. If you think that Trouba is going to help our defense, you’ve got some serious conflict with the concept of “the grass is always greener on the other side”.

  25. Two old dudes in the twilight of their careers with huge contracts, no-trade lists, and term?

    Isn’t that what got us into this mess in the first place? Do we really want to add age and big contracts with term? No, we don’t. Now is not the time to throw a hail marry to try and save the season with futures.

    How would either of these trades even work?
