It won't be cheap. Everyone knows that. Sign him or trade him. The price won't go down.
“There’s been no discussion at all, but I did get a call from Jeff early in the offseason telling me that they were working on their arbitration cases, so not to interpret it as a sign of disrespect toward Marc,” agent Paul Krepelka told Slap Shots on Thursday, referring to assistant general manager Jeff Gorton. “I expect that we will be talking at some point before training camp.
“Marc’s objective is to sign a long-term deal with the Rangers, and he would like to get it done before the season starts. That hasn’t changed.
“But we’ll see.”
So, the Rangers not only might as well find out now what it will take to keep Staal and keep together the foundation on D — built around the Big Three of Staal, Girardi and Ryan McDonagh — they must know now. Because the sooner to explore the trade market, the better.
If the Blueshirts are going to trade Staal, they had better to do it sooner rather than later and avoid the angst that accompanied the Girardi and Callahan scenarios through last winter that benefitted no one.
