It is what it is. We have a ton of young talent on cheap affordable contracts right now. We should build a contender now and when those kids need to get paid in the next 2-3 years, you can certainly get out from the AAV’s Goodrow and Coleman/Tanev would have. These are not anchoring contracts that warrant the reaction some here are having.
This would explain all of his ED coverage.

Well I'll tell ya a couple things,
-Zibanejad is not making $10M nor would he even sign to that as a well respected New Yorker now and with the Sather/Drury charm
-Buchnevich is 100% gone in an Eichel deal
-Strome is 100% gone after an Eichel deal
-Kreider is going to be offloaded in 2 or 3 years to a team that wants what he can always offer
-Eichel may or may not come with slight retention
It can work and WHEN it works this team is closer to being a cup contender than it ever has in the past half decade. Probably even more so than in 12' 14' or 15'
To think if we had just drafted a top C like Getzlaf or traded for a young Stamkos we could have 3 extra cups to our name. Shame.
Well at least NYR management nowadays wants to take the proper swing at things and actually be deep down the middle. It's still how you win, especially with a big boy D

Fox is getting at least $9 million
Add Laf and Kakko to the mix too
Zibby is the #1 center. Somebody will pay him close to $10 million

All this talk about Eichel. I have gone back and forth on this but I am back in the no camp on him.
Isn't there a chance he could miss this season with an injury? There's no way we can move Buch for him if that's the case.

Fox is the only guy who MIGHT get a huge deal right now. The Rangers are going to bridge the **** out of people if need be trying to win while Panarin is here and figure it out after that

Hall won a Hart Trophy not that long ago.
I'm not saying I would give it to him, but $6m is nothing for him.

A much less valuable player than 90 percent of the rest of the league is losing

yup it’s just how they do it. Like I said Fox will get a deal if he’s willing the rest unlikely

We’ll see if the Rangers stick with a rebuild or this was just a retool. Resigning Buch after resigning Kreider and likely having to resign Zibby tells me a Fox, Laf or Kakko will be lost along with many other kids.
The foundation is supposed to be Laf, Kakko, Fox and Shes and hopefully the Rangers can navigate keeping others. No way the pre-rebuild roster spots all get these third contracts.

he is the only one I can think of and his deal was a sweetheart for what he was to this team at the time...
They won't bridge Lafreniere either.
And might? Fox is going to get a substantial deal.

Going with bridges actually makes sense for us. Try to win while you have Panarin.
Laf and Kakko would be getting their UFA contracts five years from now. Everyone will be off the books by then.
