Sujet: Better Lundkvist Is The 7th D Than Traded For a 2nd
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>glarson17</b></div><div>Gauthier is worthless, not even an nhler. Kravstov couldn’t make the lineup so he left, who knows if he will this season though he should. Lundqvist is behind Fox, Trouba and Schneider all on the right side. On the left they have Miller and lindgren ahead of him. There’s a lot jam after that. It’s a long road to get into that lineup and teams know that. He can go off to Sweden and be useless for NYR when they want that high of a return.</div></div>

Gauthier's an NHLer, he just has to put the pieces together. New York are awful with their forward development. See Chytil, Lafreniere, Kakko, all who have not reached their potential.

Kravtsov left because of issues with the old management group. That was made fairly clear. You try to make the case Kravtosv isn't good enough to make the team yet he's made the Rangers team before. It's a terribly uninformed take. Either that or it is lazy. Either way, I don't think it is a justifiable take.

Lundqvist is retired. If you're trying to understand why Lundqvist isn't playing for a RD spot, he's 40. Nils Lundkvist started last year as their 3RD, and they kept chopping and changing, eventually they settled on Schnieder, but Braden Schneider is by no means a lock for that position. Lundkvist's underlyings are actually better than Schnieders. It makes no difference since showing underlying numbers to Chris Drury is like showing a chimpanzee a telescope, but again, this take is lazy and illinformed. Lundkvist may return to Sweden with Lulea, and he'll go back to being one of the most dominant defensemen in the history of the SHL. That won't hurt his value. It'll only enhance it. New York have 5 more years of team control. There's no reason for Drury to sell for anything less than market value on someone that is still considered one of the best defenders to have not made the jump to the NHL full time.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>glarson17</b></div><div>No way anyone is paying anything more than a 2nd. NYR are in a bad spot with him. He wants to play, not ride the bench, there isn’t a spot on the team for him for years to come, he isn’t a proven player. Every team knows this.</div></div>

This is the right sentiment with the wrong reasoning. He's more than happy to play in New York, but he'd prefer to be moved somewhere he isn't behind Jacob Trouba or Adam Fox. They should easily get back a great C prospect for him. You are trying to argue his value is hurt, but that's bull. He's team controlled for the next 5 ish years. Lundkvist has no leverage, and Drury has been very vocal about how the Rangers will not move him if the valuation isn't met. Look at Kravtsov or Gauthier. Both want out, neither value has been met, both are still in New York.

Sujet: Buffalo
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AJC13</b></div><div>Your proposed Rangers deal is a better offer than the deal Buffalo finally accepted. Buffalo all along until the end wanted four players / draft picks equal to four 1st round picks, but settled for one late round 1st round pick and two players that I highly doubt any team would trade a first round pick for. The swapping of Buffalo's 3rd round pick for Vegas' 2nd round pick is like propaganda being sold to the Buffalo fans to make the trade look better than it actually was, because management believes the fans of Buffalo are not smart enough to realize that there's very little difference between a late 2nd round pick and an early 3rd round pick. Anyway, Just glad Eichel got traded and the Rangers didn't overpay! How frustrating though was it posting trades that Buffalo fans were completely offended with, that turned out to be much more in value than they actually received?</div></div>

The majority of trades on here with Vegas (at least by non-Sabres fans) were substantially less value than what they ended up getting. Tuch is worth a first, and Krebs is a high value Center prospect- you don’t trade those for picks.
