Just like the Mike milbury era for the Islanders. Hard to believe that Chara was once an islander.
2 firsts and Georgiev? Thats a hell of a price, you could get quite a lot
Kerfoot could be gotten for a lot cheaper than that.
Tyler Johnson could probably be gotten
If I were New York though, I'd much prefer to keep the firsts unless something huge becomes available and you don't get borderline 1Cs on ELCs for even that much of a price.
But neither Kerfoot nor Johnson do much for the Rangers.2 firsts and Georgiev? Thats a hell of a price, you could get quite a lot

Wouldn’t mind Johnsson or Engvall for GeorgievBut neither Kerfoot nor Johnson do much for the Rangers.

Oh come on. As a NYR fan, that package is brutal for Hertl. Hajek has looked awful. Rykov is a question mark, and Strome is going want around 5 million after playing with Panarin and putting up 60 points. Getting a potential starter is nice, but it's not Hertl nice.As usual, people here over value their players way too much. Two first rounders and a young starting goalie is a ton to give up. If I was to target a center I would think Hertl is a good one. He's coming off a tough knee injury. Rangers need a top faceoff guy who can put up 60 plus points as the second center. . San Jose is loaded with terrible contracts. They need to rebuild. I would think a package of Georgiev, Hajek, Rykov and Strome is enough to get Hertl. Hajek and Rykov are two, talented lefty defense prospects. However, I suspect the Rangers will go with Miller and Robertson on the left side in a couple years. Strome can fill in for Hertl if they can sign him at a resonable price. They could also use him to deal for another prospect.
I actually think you may be overrating Hertl a bit. He carries a 5.6M cap hit for the next two seasons. And then needs a contract. He's basically 6 months younger than Strome.Oh come on.

Hertl is a little inconsistence, but he's still a great player. He had a pretty similar season to Zibanejad a season ago, plus he's good on the dot. A 1-2 punch of Zibby and Hertl would be amazing for us and worth giving up a goalie who's going to end up our backup, and 2 players that may never fully make a permanent roster spot. Strome had a good season with us, but I don't trust him to close out games or be a key player for us. I may think highly of Hertl compared to some, but nothing we're giving up is going to hurt us in the long run.I actually think you may be overrating Hertl a bit.

Add in three additional young pieces, and I'm not sure I make the trade from a Ranger POV. And I'm not sure SJ does.
We might be getting a little seduced by the memory for Hertl basically retiring Martin Biron.
The Rangers look like they have taken a step forward before the stoppage happened. They are set in goal, have solid depth with talented players in NHL and prospects on D and F. Where they are lacking is a true #2.
What Center can the Rangers get if they offer:
Both 1st round picks this year and Georgiev?
No.NYR 2020 1st
Carolina 2020 1st
Georgiev
Strome
B. Smith

Toews
Entwistle

I think Toews would be a fantastic add for the Rangers. He can bring the leadership that brings the talented young roster together.
Ton of respect for Toews but that is too much and his salary doesn't make sense for NY. A guy who is a top faceoff center and is an under the radar guy is Danault. He's real good defensively and his offense should be OK with Panarin. Price is getting old. Montreal is going nowhere and they don't draft particularly well. I would think NY could acquire him. I would think he's a fan favorite in Montreal but when your future in goal is bleak and you need as many decent young prospects as you can get, he should be moved at 27.
If Danault is near untouchable, your team has absolutely not future and no chance of doing anything for the next decade. They must have some good whiskey up in Toronto.

Reasonable asks for both 1sts (protected) and Georgiev might be:
Sean Monahan
William Karlsson
