How many Holdens are on NYR?

That's not the point. They did a bunch of offers to show what they think Holden could fetch.

OP, that's why I'm giving you 3 stars instead of 2; gonna balance the score out. Of course Holden alone will not fetch a 1C, but when you add some other pieces to him, a team that needs defensive depth could cough up a 2C. Bozak for Holden+ seems less likely now, but the Rangers could probably get Spooner for Holden and a 1st/2nd. All four teams would be "making out like gangbusters here compared to [the Rangers]" because defensemen are typically valued more than forwards. Holden had a career year and has some talent on both sides of the puck; the problem is he's not very smart. Still, Holden alone could give the Rangers at least a 3C.

Agreed I think I seen someone trade Holden a first third and fifth rounder for duchene hahah

I realized this right after I sent it. Apologies.

Thank you for getting that I wasn't proposing a 26 man roster, almost $3 million over the cap.

I feel like Vegas having a half dozen bottom pair LD on the market doesn't help the Rangers position. Definitely not trying to say he has no value.

As the Bruins I would take Holden for Nash in a heartbeat.

this may be closer to Holdens value but NYR might rather take a mid round pick to alleviate the logjam on D instead of taking another non-asset like Nash. DD is pretty much secure in his 4C role and 13th fwds are still plentiful in the FA pool.

Bozak and trocheck are not 1st line centers
