That's not his market. Trouba was arbitration eligible with one year to go before UFA eligibility. If anything, this reduces the chance of an Ekblad-like deal for Provorov just off his ELC (unless McAvoy or Werenski gets one).

G Coots TK
JVR Hayes Voracek
Lindblom Patrick Frost
Raffl Laughton Pitlick/NAK

- hereticpride


Oh my god, I keep forgetting about Pitlick.

Still really hoping one of the skilled prospects like Morgan Frost or Joel Farabee take a spot in the top nine and one of NAK or Stewart taking on a fourth line role.

Samuel Morin has gotta play!!

Fixed

Even though our blueline prior to any deals made this offseason was very inexperienced, I didn’t want to add to it at all. I still wish we didn’t.

Would have been fine with just the Niskanen trade. Braun super unnecessary

Jesus christ. That's an absurd number for him. Rangers really dont care about the cap it seems
- bulet13


It’s an over by $1m like the Hayes deal.

Does the nhl cap really make you sweat a $ mill?

Depends on what your team needs

We needed a 2c. Rangers needed a top pairing defender. Both overpaid but got what they needed

Yea they have options though. They can bury smith and buyout Staal. Most likely they will trade Nam and bury Smith. Going to be interesting to see what they do. Good thing its not my job to worry

Staal shatty Smith hank all off books in two years. That’s $25m in space. By the time we are ready to contend hopefully.
