Fast is not part of any problem here. He young, he's cheap, he's great defensively, and he's... wait for it... Fast. There's no reason to move him at all. So start with what you think you'd want to give up and add an uncomfortable plus to it if you want a reply to any calls about him. The guy does so many things right that don't show up in stats. Reminds me a lot of Hagelin without the rocket skates.

He’s a fan favorite and probably worth more to the team that anything realisic they’d get back in a trade. He’s a very underrated player

Presumably why Morty has his eye on him

Kind of like a younger version of Sobotka. Hard to pry those guys away.

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

He's a cheap, cost controlled, effective for the next 3 years, fills a need the Rangers have. So for what he is, the cost would have to be disproportional.

 

[Lays]

Huge overpayment

 

[KingDeathMetal]

What's the point? Fast probably doesn't yield anything better than a 2nd rounder, and the odds of that player being better than Fast are slim, let alone even make it to the NHL. If Fast was only signed for one more year I'd say yes, but he's under contract for three. Best value is to just keep him unless someone wants to overpay (low 1st!).

Fast for 2-2nd rd picks

 

[LaffyTaffy]

A 2nd or 3rd

2nd or 3rd would be fine.

 

[Kaapo di tutti capi]

2nd or 3rd would be fine.

The chances of that pick turning into a player as good as Fast is remote. Fast is worth much more to the Rangers than he is in what would be fair trade value. Barring over payment, he's not for sale.

 

[Ori]

yes true, a valid point @NYR1967 - I think we should avoid dealing J. Fast for now. What we need are 1st picks in 2018.

I just responded based on his value, but I hope we keep Fast and don`t move him.

 

[Machinehead]

Take AV back

I don't see any value at all in moving him for a 2nd or 3rd. Literally no reason to do that imo.

you could do it just to be nice .....

Ok, there's exactly 1 reason to do it then. Good enough for Swayze, good enough for me.

 

[simon IC]

Really, really like Fast, but I completely understand Rangers fans wanting to hold on to him.

 

[TGWL]

Fast is far from untouchable, but he's not a player we need to move. It's unlikely "fans" are willing to trade him for anything else than an offer that's fair, with an extra incentive to do it. In other words, we're going to want an a slight over payment because he's probably more valuable to us, and in that case, I don't really see what the Blues would do it.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Definitely not untouchable, but I'd want a 1st or comparable prospect.

 

[Colt55]

Definitely not untouchable, but I'd want a 1st or comparable prospect.

That's a solid no on the first.

 

[ZiGOODejad]

hes a fan favorite he's not going anywhere. only damn forward we can rely on Defensively.

 

[Machinehead]

And he hits hard too which is something we need. Although, that's been neutered somewhat this year under AV.

 

[Savant]

No reason to move him at all.
