Quoting: palhal
Canes with their defence don't need Staal even at that cost for 4 years. Would Nash really waive his NTC for an out of playoffs team?
2013 - Rangers lose to Jaromir Jagr and Wade Redden in the playoffs
- Chicago over Boston in 7
2014 - Rangers lose to Marian Gaborik in the Stanley Cup Finals
2015 - Rangers lose to Ryan Callahan, Anton Stralman, and Brian Boyle in the Eastern Conference Finals
- Chicago over Tampa Bay for Finals (a FU to Rangers fans as Brad Richards played for Chicago)
2016 - Rangers lose to Carl Hagelin in the first round of the playoffs
- Pens win the Stanley Cup over San Jose
2017 - Rangers lose to Derrick Brassard and Viktor Stalberg in the second round of the playoffs
With Dan Girardi in Tampa Bay and now Derek Stepan and Annti Raanta in Arizona, Nash will take his chances.
