As much as I’d like this trade to go through, I don’t think that tweet is very credible.

what source

Careyprix on twitter

yah I saw it too ahahah

My evaluation for Lehkonen was Kravtsov + 3rd which would leave Nemeth + Lundkvist + 2nd for Chiarot. I know someone was going to overpay for Chiarot but man. Why do this immediately after Zac Jones had his best game in his career after finally playing with his longtime AHL partner Schneider?

At least this is less than what the Flyers paid for Risto?

If its true [ probably not ] teams are gonna overpay a little. Lehkonen and chariot are good player for any teams that needs a little better defensive players for the playoffs.

*IF* this is true, I feel like I'd look at it more like "Krav+3rd=Lehk", "Lundkvist for Chiarot" and "Nemeth+2nd gets out of that contract". I don't think it's *That* bad, since it probably frees up enough cap space to either re-sign or replace Strome, but I feel like there's better targets out there.

The Rangers need offense more than defense right now

Good point

Not probably not. Definitely not.

This isn’t a source.

The good part about the trade for the Rangers is getting rid of Nemeth's contract.

I seen it too it makes sense based on the asking price of both players Chiarot and Lehkonen and based on most deadline deals.

The Rangers are beyond stupid if they did this. This isn’t the year to be all in. Not when they likely get smoked in a 7 games series in the first round.
