Description
Rangers need a real deal 1RW. Middle six guys playing over their heads aint gonna cut it (no to Vatrano, no to Duclair). Buch fits that profile, and we know he works well with Mika and Kreider. Unfortunately, you need to give to get a player of that caliber, so Othmann's gotta go, as well as potentially 2 1st round picks. Hopefully Berard is the real deal, that would soften the sting of losing Othmann.
I have no idea of Danforth's value or if CBJ needs young defensemen. If they don't, then you can basically switch out Robertson for Korzack, Sykora, BMB, or any non-Berard, non-Perrault player.
Bellemare is 39 years old but putting up good defensive numbers. This is probably his last shot and he should be able to be gotten for a 7th, maybe a 6th, unless there's some kind of bidding war for him.
Stetcher is a solid 7D with some playoff experience which the team probably sees as an upgrade over Jones. It never really felt like Jones had a future here, so I don't mind trading youth for experience.
Brodzinski, Rempe, and Edstrom (and Stetcher) are all extras/injury insurance.
Why would the Rangers trade Jones 1 for 1 for Stecher?
1) An idiotic move for the Rangers (Jones is most likely 3LD next year)
2) Arizona has no use for another offensive defenseman.
