A brain wipe thing from Men In Black to make Henrik forget his no move clause to come to Detroit.

Yeah, I should have preempted that conversation in the comments here. I know about the NMC. Was just exploring the hypothetical. Helps me learn what draft picks and cap dumps are worth.

Stevey Y is too smart to take pieces teams are happy to lose.

To NYR - Some F tier AHL player

To DET - Henrik, Adam Fox, a mid pick.

Thanks for the input.

Fox is way untouchable, see these guys opinion: @KakkoForMauriceRichardAward @Stanley_Cup_To_Manhattan

We aren't trading assets to dump salary.

I agree Fox is untouchable.

I also think this deal cannot happen.

He asked for what it would take in a theoretical sense.

The only thing there that Detroit would want is the 1st round pick. Hank is an aging superstar why on earth would he want to spend his last season on a rebuilding Detroit team? I doubt he gets traded at all. Let him make the rounds and get honored by the rest of the league. At this point Andersson is known more for his off ice antics than his play. No way Yzerman brings him in to Detroit.

Then, you won't be able to dump. :hrugs::

Would Hank want to? No. Would he fill a need for Detroit for a season? Yes. Why take an aging guy with a huge contract for one season? He's still capable in the role he would play, and the contract nets you futures for cap space you weren't going to use anyway. As far as Andersson goes, maybe a change of scenery situation. I think I heard he wanted more playing time which he has a better chance at getting in Detroit than New York.

I'm not saying you aren't making good points. I'm just providing counter points.

That's correct. Find someone else.

We shall see. I see a handful of pay raises and no real salary coming off the books for NYR who has less than $4M of cap space as we speak. Why carry three goalies when the apparent third goalie now is eating $8.5M? I will be interested to see how they handle it no matter which way they go.

Henrik Lundqvist will be bought out of his contract. Jesper Fast will depart. Strome likely to be traded.

lias anderson let him age up one more year and then give seattle a 3rd to take him .. they NYR dont lose a valuable piece of the rebuild .. doesnt get anymore of a fresh start for anderson then that ..

There is a very easy way NYR could dump some cap if they wanted.

Trade the 1 pick and some salary to LA for the 2 pick, and a decent prospect.

haha. They certainly could do that.

He is/was a great goalie and yeah I take him in Detroit. If he doesn't retire this off season he will when his contract is up. I just think is very disrespectful to trade him to a rebuilding before his final season. Seriously Hank was the face of the Rangers since he joined them in the 2005-06 season. Yzerman is big on character and Andersson's temper tantrum at the WJCs when he threw his silver medal into the stands and then he walked out on his team midseason, He is a selfish a brat and I think it's safe to say he won't be coming to Detroit any time soon.

Yeah, I just don't know how NYR does it where it is respectful but doesn't hold them back.

I didn't know about the WJC incident. That is ridiculous.

I really have no idea but the upcoming expansion draft you can only protect 1 goalie and I guarantee you will get a much better return for Georgiev.

why would Hank want to come to det he would want to go somewhere he can win a cup
