Sujet: Staal for Soderberg
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Barathrum_Obama</b></div><div>I've said this the last time this was posted:
when you retain money on Staal and take Söderbergs full contract you're dealing from a bad to worse position. make it the other way round and there's some use of this for the Rangers. what's the point on efficiently paying &gt;7M for Söderberg for 3 years?</div></div>

I think Soderberg can at least fill a position of need and open up room on the roster to play some of the young LD in the system, like Bereglazov, Graves or Day. I also think Soderberg can get back to being a 40-50 pt, two way center away from Colorado.
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SuprDave45</b></div><div>So the theory would be to trade black holes, and since mine is arguably less attractive then the picks are meant to sweeten the deal? Why am i eating money as well?</div></div>
I think Soderberg is overpaid, but still a useful roster player. Staal on the other hand...

Sujet: The Rangers are not getting a 1st line center for Nick Holden
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Icegirl</b></div><div><div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>joseyourbrose</b></div><div>How many Holdens are on NYR?</div></div>

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.</div></div>

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.
