Only way Yandle to NYR deal gets done is if ARI takes back $ on Yandle contract but if ARI can get Duclair and 1st round pick, worth it.

#NHLtrade. Yandle to #Rangers. Girardi expected to be in the deal as well going to #coyotes

duclair and a 1st seems like an underpayment to me especially if Arizona retains salary....surely flyers can do better than that if interested

When is the earliest the Rangers have a 1st rounder? '16 draft? I can't see Slather trading Girardi to acquire Yandle unless he thinks Klein can handle even more responsibilities.

why trade girardi

Slats might think with Staal, McDonagh and Klein in the house, he's got the defensive acumen covered

I kinda would agree with that, tbh

They just got better

Yandle's only one year older than Giroux

Haha please let the Rangers give up a 3rd straight 1st rounder. It'll be fun to play them in 5 years

Yandle is overrated. I'm thrilled about this I think rangers will pay through the nose. If girardi goes back they are soft

Maybe so, but they got Kevin Hayes for free last offseason and Slats is gonna be retired by then

Five years from now is a long time away if they're kicking your teeth in all the way

I don't think he's overrated -- his numbers are legit

I hate the Rags, and I wouldn't want to pay what it took, but Yandle's a legit top-pair defenseman, offensively

Defensively, he won't scare anybody, but a Yandle-Staal pairing, or Yandle-McDonagh, should

Awaiting details on Yandle to NYR trade (pending trade call) but ARI believed to be picking up 50 per cent of Yandle's money.

Key components likely to be going the other way are Anthony Duclair and draft picks, incl a 1st round pick. #TradeCentre.

Ya, Yandle is a good player. If they gave up Girardi though, then they've made a mistake.

Next year is the last of Yandle's contract. That's a smart way for a team going into a rebuild to inflate the value of an already valuable player.

Mixed emotions, pretty obvious the team wants to shoot the 3 ball. Carter-Williams didn't show that much improvement in accuracy. Its a great trade, if the first rounder is this year. If not, Western Conference is pretty stacked, can't see the Lakers improving that much to be a playoff contender. Probably looking at a 1st rounder in next year's draft about the same place they drafted MCW. I understood the deal, I think he sold a little low actually.

Hinkie better pick the correct PG at the top of the draft this season, and obviously Embiid is going to make or break him.

Woof

That's a haul, especially if one of those picks is a first
