I mean I guess they could get creative by completing the deal in pieces. Like trade part 1 is now, Krav and Leschychyn for a 4th from Chicago. As soon as enough cap clears, a 4th goes to 3rd team for retention, a 2nd goes to Blackhawks for Kane. I've never seen something like that done before though.

BrooksBurner Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 5 hours ago, The Dude said: Just think. Had they waived Hajek 2-3 months ago instead of sitting on him, they'd probably have plenty of space. Didn't need to pick Leschyshyn off waivers either. We can blame Gallants inability to use Goodrow as the 4C, which coincides with his unwillingness to play Kravtsov as part of the reasons why they didn't accrue enough space. Then again who thought they'd be in position to get both? I'll take Domi now thanks. Blackwell too. If they didn't downgrade from Gauthier to Motte, to pay Motte almost twice as much, they might already have enough also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Zac Jones and a 4th, then Krav to MTL to retain the other 25%. Some ridiculous shit like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichieNextel305 Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 (edited) It sucks Chicago didn’t play last night or tonight. Because if Kane was a scratch, we would obviously have our answer right there. They play tomorrow night out in San Jose. I wonder if he plays. Guess that all depends on what happens between now and then. Edited February 24, 2023 by RichieNextel305 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It keeps them healthy. You can't waive an injured player (Leasokhflkajgl;waj;g) and an injured player is less valuable in a trade (Kravtsoft).

Phil Posted February 24, 2023 Author Share Posted February 24, 2023 Quote A league source said the Rangers were searching Thursday night for a third team to pick up 25 percent of Kane’s $10.5-million cap hit, but that shouldn’t be an issue. The Wild did that in the Caps-Bruins trade, getting a 2025 fifth-rounder to retain some space; the Ducks, Canucks, Canadiens and Coyotes are all teams out of the playoff picture who could take a late-round pick to eat a quarter of Kane’s cap hit. So that’s another necessary step. Quote The final step is the cost to the Hawks. League sources have said Chicago would likely not make the deal if it’s not for a first-round pick or at least a second-rounder that could turn into a first if the Rangers make the conference final and Kane plays at least half of the playoff games, a similar deal to what Drury gave up to the Jets for Andrew Copp last year — the same Copp who had one of his better games of the season for the Wings on Thursday. Quote If it’s a conditional 2024 second-round pick and Kravtsov for Kane and the Hawks retain 50 percent of the cap hit, that should do it. Plus a 2024 fifth to the third team that retains half of the remaining half of Kane’s cap hit. If Kravtsov is waived on Friday and gets claimed, then another young player steps in — Zac Jones is likely more than Drury wants to part with, but he could be the only other prospect the Hawks want. Quote There’s also the roster tap dance that will result from this trade. The Rangers will already have to play with 11 forwards until they can make the trade in a week. They have four games before then, two sets of back-to-backs. Tyler Motte briefly left Thursday’s game after taking a puck near the throat, so any injuries to forwards could genuinely scuttle a potential Kane trade since the Rangers would need to carry just 21 players after Kane arrives. Quote But it’s clear that Drury has decided — certainly with the eager support of Rangers owner James Dolan — that Kane can fit on the roster and is what the team needs. And Kane, who a friend said recently has been eyeing the Rangers ever since his old linemate Artemi Panarin came to town, clearly has decided the Rangers are what he needs after a Hall-of-Fame run in Chicago. It’s not done. But the wheels are very much in motion, starting with roster management. https://theathletic.com/4246927/2023/02/23/rangers-lost-trade-deadline-roster-management/?source=freedailyemail&campaign=601983 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not pointless. If either gets injured it basically fractures the entire trade sequence. Staple breaks it down in my last post above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJWantsTheCup Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 They should play Miller at wing until the Kane trade is resolved. He has no desire to actually play D lately. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 I get frustrated with Miller too, fellas....but I wanna stay patient with him. Defenseman take longer to develop, and he's really still just a child out there. He has awesome athleticism, and he's a fabulous skater. He's not as physical as I'd like him to be, but there's no doubt this guy is going to be a pretty damn good player; way better than what we see now. He's going to make mistakes They're going to be painful at times....like last night BUT....he's going to be one of the cogs in the wheel that eventually land us a Cup! I believe that. I also believe in Santa Claus....but that's a story for another day!!! LOL Nah....I'm kidding....I like K' and I think he's going to be a solid player for us for many years...I say let him grow up and learn. He will! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJWantsTheCup Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Not saying to give up on Miller. Just saying he should play wing until they get the Kane situation worked out. They look like dog shit trying to play 11 forwards and 7 d. Miller was a winger. Makes the most sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
