Nominated for Masterton along with Jagr and Dupuis
I have a feeling Jagr will win it for having played a long time
I've grown out of having emotional attachment to players, but would be pretty disappointed to see him traded this summer. Only other player who would do that for me is Hank, and I don't think that's a worry.
It would be a huge surprise if they trade their top scorer 2 of the last 3 seasons, with a $4,5M cap.... But you never know, when pretty much the whole team has no trade/no move clauses, unprotected players like Zucc and Stepan might be used in a trade.

It depends entirely on the Rangers state of mind. True, you dont trade him if you are going to continue to try to compete, but if you are going for a rebuild (even a semi rebuild, or "major restructuring" if you will), he would probably be very attractive to a number of teams out there, and should garner a very nice return.Yepp, When an important playmaker has given his heart to the team and also is on a great contract in a sport where many players care more about the money than their heart, you just do not trade him if you have any desire to be successful in the future.
