Confirmed Trade: [ARI/NYR] Derek Stepan and Antti Raanta for 7th overall and Anthony DeAngelo

[Phion Keneuf]

damn, Arizona might make the playoffs... like these moves, seemed they were destined to always be one more year away from competing

 

[Carlzner]

7th overall seems a hefty price to pay, but if Rantaa can be a # 1 it's worth it

Sounds to me like Arizona thinks they have enough top prospects already. They're not wrong.

 

[TLEH]

That's a terrible deal for Arizona. Stepan isn't that good.

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

Good move for NYR to unload Stepan, it was needed, but that #7 pick is not sexy in this draft.

seems like its no-mans land after #5

 

[De Montreal]

Where is that poster claiming Arizona still need a C and a goalie to be considered serious

 

[JurassicTunga]

 

[Mr Positive]

Amazing for the Yotes! Probably Strome makes the jump this year too, no?

 

[BB88]

Arizona gonna be good here real soon

I think they'll be good but don't know how they'll build it to contender level.

 

[CodeE]

Rangers & Coyotes BFF trade partners

 

[Juicy Pop]

metro pls

 

[Stammertime91]

Good for Arizona

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Sounds like a win for NYR.

 

[hi]

Yes Yes Yes. Please let Makar fall to #7

 

[hagelin1381]

Chayka madness. (I like this deal for both sides)

 

[WTFMAN99]

I think Arizona is overrating Raanta but need to step up.

 

[Starat327]

Wait, i thought Stepan was going to Cost Keller and Strome?

 

[SEALBound]

Given who they got last year in the first round and the fact that they have Minnesota's 1st, I don't mind this trade for them.

They get a 1C and a 1G. You hope that 7OV turns into a guy like Stepan. And they needed a goalie. I like it. Good for Arizona.

 

[Batrous]

Wow, that's one big move for both teams.

 

[Tripod]

oooh

This ends the Stepan to Montreal for Chucky threads.

 

[McShogun99]

Tippet probably doesn't want to leave now. Arizona trading futures to be a better team today.

 

[Syckle78]

That's a great trade for Phoenix,imo.

 

[Kcoyote3]

DeAngelo is supposedly going to be really good. Eventually.

But yeah, Arizona just turned the jets up to 11 in terms of competing.

 

[Cult of Hynes]

Arizona should be fun to watch this year.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Oh whaT?!?!?! I'm fine with Step gone. But come on!

How good is this DeAngelo kid?! Thats the most important part!

7th OV Pettersson PLZ!!! Or Suzuki!

 

[CupsOverCash]

Decent trade for both teams.
