Rangers cant afford Anderson even if they were dumb enough to want that deal at his atrocious contract

Turcotte for Edmundson with 50% retention and your 2023 second is fine, Rangers aren't close to giving up on LaFreniere yet, and with their thin prospect pool and few futures, Pittsburgh isn't giving up a second for a veteran neither-here-nor-there goalie.

Agree on Turcotte
Agree this isnt the Deal for Laff but do think NYI is ready to give up on him
Agree

I think MTL gives up its 5th OA pick and Jesse Ylonen then Laff is ours.
Whether NYR get Carlson, Michkov or Smith they get a talent who will likely surpass laff
Michkov is a way superior Goal Scorer but is a bigger gamble the cavoite being when he comes to NYR he'll be a 4th year pro joining Panarin and company.
He'll be much cheaper at a time when you'll be so tight on cash that you'll dream about years like this one lol

I think if you gave NYR an out with a similar level of Skill as Laff along with a guy who can atleast play his role in the middle 6 even if not at his level .
Then they'd atleast consider it

All that said , i wouldnt make that trade.
Just believe its possible given our history of overpaying for French players

The Penguins of all teams, are the last team that’s gonna be paying a second for Jake Allen.

Hughes would absolutely get crucified if he did that. Laraque threw that idea outhere (trading 5th overall for Lafreniere) last week, and it wasn't well received at all.

Most absurd offer for Laffy in a while, congrats.

This is all just MTL cap dumping

Seems like everyone is mostly commenting on the Laf trade so I've gone ahead and deleted it.
Then i tried ot OS him at 3.5 M which would cost the habs 1 second round pick......but it's not allowing me to do it for some reason.

I dint think the rangers would be able to match that offer and we get to keep the picks and Anderson which I originally included.


Edit: done and messages received

NYR will definitely not be able to offer that to Laf and Allen for a 4th is a.steal

Habs don't have a 2nd round pick

We can only offer LAF under 2m, 4.2m-6.3m or over 10.5 .
That is unless you trade with ARZ for MTL's pick back
Which ive tried and they got all the Leverage so they dont just swap 2nd's
