josh Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Buffalo is a place where NHLers go to lose their smiles, unfortunately. I'm hopeful that Lias shows that progression next year - whether it's with us or not. The Hartford of the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirtyONE Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 The Hartford of the NHL. Makes me think Hartford would do well to rebrand in some capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangersIn7 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 If Chytil was taken at 7, and Andersson at 21 I think we would be thrilled at this point. Players taken after Andersson hasnt really set the NHL on fire. hindsight 20/20, who would you rather have the Rangers taken? Suzuki? Cal Foote? That?s true on Chytil and Andersson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tphilly5 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Wonder what that Karlsson deal does to any Trouba talks? Price must have jumped considerably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirtyONE Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Wonder what that Karlsson deal does to any Trouba talks? Price must have jumped considerably. Huh? Why? Trouba isn't Karlsson and the situations are completely different. I'm not sure why anyone is surprised that Karlsson got 11.5. I thought that was pretty much known to be the case all season.

Karlsson was going to get 7-8 years no matter what. He's the premier defender in the league. Trouba is 25 and an RFA. His price is not connected to Karlsson at all. And trade price has nothing to do with free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but anybody kicking the tires on Karlsson may now be looking at Trouba as a Plan B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 "next best available" drives that price up, closer to Karlsson;s. It's market driven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but anybody kicking the tires on Karlsson may now be looking at Trouba as a Plan B. 5-10% bump is possible. But not guaranteed He has nowhere near the same negotiating platform Maybe if a team gives up a lot to get him they duke him a little more to keep him rather than running the risk of losing him next summer. That will have a bigger impact than Karlsson’s deal. It doesn’t hurt him that Karlsson got paid that much. But it’s not the same. He’s not on the market in the same way. Trade price could be more now, but it’ll land near expected, in an already expensive neighborhood. He can ask for a little more, but he’ll still be about where he’s projected even if he gets it, 7-8 million range. Maybe he gets a bit over 8. But he’s not approaching Karlsson Not that you were implying that. Any more than what he’s projected at would bump him into that top tier for D. He’s not that guy. And I think the league feels that way. He’s going north of $50 million Maybe he gets to 55ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dude Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I'd do Skjei or #20, Pionk and Andersson for Trouba. No way you trade the assets it's going to take to get this guy, when you already have too many D men. I really don't see Andersson being more than a 3rd liner. I trade him quick. Close.
