Available for cheaper and scoring as a top-4 d-man rate? Come on lol.

When was a middle pair Dman traded for a top 15 pick? The team at time of trade knew it was a top 15 pick.
Personality I look at ADA as a bottom pair offensive Dman. If he was better defensively he could be mid pair.

He is mid-pair. You don't score at that rate and pencil him in as a third pair D. Sorry, but that's insane. He needs to be away from Marc frieken Staal and with an actual defensive d-man.

You p,ay the 3rd pair with your 1st offendibe line and have him play of the top PP unit and you can get similar stats.
Offensive stats alone do not drive Dmans worth.
I’d just sign Krug as a UFA for 3-4 yrs.

RNH is a nice player, but I don’t know that he is what the Rangers really need Him being a rental isn’t really a problem to me though. Don’t love the fit unless Strome is moved, and that creates the same problem.

“Small adds“ like First round pick(s) and top prospects from One of the best pools in the NHL. Okay.
DeAngelo mentioned to Anaheim because they tried to trade for Faulk who is a similar skill But DeAngelo is better, younger, cheaper and under RFA control. No one said it would be a 1 for 1.
HF obsessed with players being "one dimensional".

No problem adding a vet rental C; don’t necessarily want someone the would have to protect from Seattle. But I would be looking at a guy like Stastny who wins face offs, helps on special teams and would likely be cheaper to retain if it worked out. Rangers need to think a bit about roster construction. I think the team makes a bigger jump by upgrading Howden at 3C than upgrading Strome (who centered a Hart finalist all season) at 2C

I mean if Said one dimensional Player is a 50+ point offensive dman i can live with that. You can be one dimensional if you are top tier ay that dimension. DeAngelo is.

Deangelo was on pace for 64 points carrying the corpse of Marc Staal. Plus I know +/- is flawed but the guy was a +12 on a team that wasn't particularly dominant 5 on 5 with Marc Staal.

For sure. I don’t think people realize how bad all the Rangers LHD were this year except for Lindgren
The this guy doesn't play Norris/Selke level defense (based on position) so he's a scrub is an obnoxious aspect of HF. If a guy's not great defensively but was on pace for 64 points and +12 with Marc Staal on his pairing then I'll be ok with him not being Nik Lidstrom.

If the Rags decided to move him, I could see him going to Toronto with a + for Nylander.

Nylander is another very good player but one who is not a great fit for the Rangers.
I think that window closed when the Rangers won the lottery, unless they see him as a capable 2C.

I thinks he’s a guy NYR would ask about And I would bet the teams are taking about options that may fit
