I think 3 years for $12 million total would would be a fair contract for Lindgren.

Then Billly Zito should trade him.

The Rangers couldn't sign Patrick Kane this summer. He signed with the Red Wings before UFA began.

Yeah. And I said I stood corrected. Move on.

That plus the Oilers remaining serious competitors will keep him in Edmonton.

Ok. I stand corrected. I;m glad he did not blame the injury. He should still take a pay cut if he wants tot stay with the Rangers.

He did a few weeks ago.

Actually, it is a conflict between Jake Trouba and the Rangers. When he blamed his performance on his injury, he inadvertently made Drury and Laviolette look like idiots. The only he could make up for that portion is by helping the team win in the ice. Win, and everything else falls into place. Assuming that neither party can repair the damage, the situation can't linger into he season. If Drury waives, trades, or buys out Trouba, then he should do it before training camp.

The fact that if he wants to be part of a championship team,he will take a pay cut to make room for players who could fill in some holes -- defense, physicality, goaltending with out without Shesterkin.

2 ways that Trouba can repair the damage - 1) Take a pay cut. 2) WIN ON THE ICE!

All the more reason to upgrade the physicality and defense.

Lindgren will probably get $4 million per year for 3 years.

Ulmark comes to mind as a replacement. I say not one penny over $9.3 million per year for Shesterkin.

McDavid will stay with the Oilers for the foreseeable future. Next?

Assuming that the Rangers can't re-sign him, in all seriousness, what would an ideal package for Shesterkin be?
