I don't know, the way he forced his way to the Rangers I don't see how he wouldn't give a discount, since the Rangers know he won't play elsewhere

But why? When he has literally shown he will only play for one team? What risk is there? I'm not saying sign him to 3 mil a year, but I could see both sides together on 6 or 7 a year.

Because he might decide he no longer wants to play for the rangers if they are going to try and take advantage of his loyalty.

I think that there is the possibility that Adam Fox requests a market rate deal. Its his right and he's surely earning the ability to hold firm on his demands.
That said, I do believe that he and his reps will see what they have and are building and settles in on a two year bridge dealt get him to his 26th Birthday at which point he cashes in.
Hes got another season at 925k. That will probably get juiced up to 5.5-6.0 for two years providing a respectable salary and cost certainty before he gets his big contract.
That said, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if they broke him off something large for 8 years.

I can't believe someone compared Adam Fox to Matt Grzelcyk of all people.
Anyways I've been trying to think of who Fox truly compares to as a player in years past, I was too young to have witnessed Zubov or guys like Leetch but they both seem like much different players than Fox. Is Fox more akin to a new age Letang?

He's a lot better defensively than Letang ever was, and has a much higher hockey sense.

I agree it's just hard trying to think of previous top D men in the league that Fox is comparable to. Sort of why I think Fox is just in a league of his own already and is a true new generational defenseman along with Makar

Would a package of Fox,Panarin, Zibanejad Kakko, and Laf be enough to land McAvoy assuming we retain 75% on their salaries and throw in our first this year or is this an underpayment?

Yes, he is. The eye test, being 3rd in NHL scoring among d-men despite not being on a great PP and the analytics all tell you this.
Just stop it.

No one has said that, but thanks for contributing absolutely nothing to the conversation.

What are you talking about trying to make out Fox as a PP producer?
Tony DeAngelo was the Rangers’ PP QB last year on PP1. Fox is the PP QB this year, but the PP has not been good all season.
Just stop.

The defender whose name is blurred in that picture is actually Seth Jones, but keep telling yourself that he’s better than Fox.
And PIETRANGELO?!?!? Hahahah. Have you even watched him this year? Not even the best defender on his own team and isn’t playing like a #1.
Doughty LMFAO.
Ok, we’re done here.

Someone already mentioned it, but Lidstrom. Not talent-wise, but style-wise. Fox has the best hockey sense in the league. That was Lidstrom’s game, probably the best hockey sense ever from a defenseman.

Don't listen to me, I'm an idiot. TOGA! TOGA!

Let me just say this once so we can all get this out of the way.
Adam Fox is not for sale.
He will win a few Norris trophies.

McAvoy is a great player. So is Adam Fox. They are different type of players though. For my money, I want Fox, but YMMV.
Really no need to get upset if others prefer Fox. It's not like one stands above the other by any significant margin.
