Description

Lemou slides into the Jesper Fast role on the Panarin line. Kakko takes the next step and replaces Buch on the top line. Alexis gets a quality center on the third line and fellow French man to help adjust. Strome can be traded if Chytil proves ready for 3rd line center.
Caps get an experienced 1b goalie for a veteran team with young goalie, while Holby leaves in FA. Rangers get experienced players to round out the bottom half of the roster, which they clearly lacked in the qualifier.

As a Caps fan I'd LOVE to get Lundqvist. He's my favorite player not on the Caps. Would be a perfect mentor for Samsonov.

Tbh Rangers prob decline all. They're not trading Hank to the Caps, and giving up too much elsewhere across the board.

It has been nationally and internationally reported that they are likey to buyout lundqvist due to being 3rd in the pecking order. To get assest and less dead cap this year and next year makes much more sense. Buchnevich is very inconsistent and has never performed well without Mika as his linemate. Danult fits the rangers need for a defensive center and depth down the middle, while prospects time more time to develop. Deangelo is a luxury as the clear 3rd best RD with lundqvist in the waiting, and his value may never be higher while he played a sheltered role this year. Lastly, the rangers need a top pair LD.

But why would Detroit trade for him? We have Hronek and Seider as our top 4 RD for the foreseeable future. I’d much rather add to that 32OV to get Sergachev like you did.

A 29th ranked power play would love to add Deangelo to qb it. Plus he can take a top four role until those two prove they can handle a top role for an extended period of time.
