Rumor: NSH, TOR & BOS inquiring on Chris Kreider

[5cotland]

As per Larry Brooks:

The Blueshirts have also received inquiries on Chris Kreider, with the Maple Leafs, Bruins and Predators believed to be three interested parties, but we’re told the winger is only available if general manager Jeff Gorton receives an offer he cannot refuse for No. 20. Thus far, no severed horses’ heads have appeared between the sheets.

Unless the Rangers are simply overwhelmed by an offer including a William Nylander or Charlie McAvoy, trading Kreider in addition to Hayes and Zuccarello would strip the team of three of its four best players (non-goalie division) with only Mika Zibanejad left behind to carry the torch.

Guess this explains why the Leafs were scouting the Rangers/Canes game.

Or they want McQuaid...maybe Shattenkirk.

 

[Brock Radunske]

Yikes.

Nylander or McAvoy?

Looks like Kreider will be a Ranger going forward.

 

[BatVader]

What do the leafs need Kreider for?
Shouldn’t they focus on RHD?

 

[DRW204]

Leafs probably have to put a top prospect on the table since they don't have their 1st this year?

 

[Liferleafer]

Or they want McQuaid...maybe Shattenkirk.

Lol....no. 6.625 for 2 more years? That won't work in Toronto.

 

[Super Hans]

Are Boston and Toronto expecting Montreal to slide into that 3rd spot in the Atlantic?

 

[Slyfox]

They can keep him. Im happy with Nylander

 

[SprDaVE]

Yeah, okay.

 

[Trxjw]

Yikes.

Nylander or McAvoy?

Looks like Kreider will be a Ranger going forward.

Brooks also thought we were getting Point or Sergachev for McDonagh and Keller for Stepan. Wouldnt put much stock in the valuation part of it. He's always miles off.

 

[Liferleafer]

Nylander? McAvoy??? Ya.....sure.

 

[Subway Schenn]

Leafs probably have to put a top prospect on the table since they don't have their 1st this year?

Liljegren makes the most sense if he's not in the long-term plans.

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

bahahaha, Nylander or McAvoy for Kreider? WTF

 

[Shootertooter]

Lol....no. 6.625 for 2 more years? That won't work in Toronto.

It could with retention.
Not saying it will.

 

[Tit]

Doesn't make sense to me, unless cap is going the other way?

 

[Paris in Flames]

Aren't all sources saying the Leafs aren't open to dealing Sandin, Kapanen or Liljegren? And Dubas has straight up said he's not trading Nylander (whether true or not...) and even then...Nylander is probably too costly a price even if we wanted to deal him..

So what the f*** is Dubas even going to offer....

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Guess this explains why the Leafs were scouting the Rangers/Canes game.

Or Hamilton, Ferland, Pesche Etc

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

Lol....no. 6.625 for 2 more years? That won't work in Toronto.

We will retain salary on shatty for zaitsev and Johnsson

 

[93gilmour93]

Nylander or McAvoy. Lol. Put down the pipe.....

 

[Roman Yoshi]

Is Nashville just in on everyone?

 

[Kevin27NYI]

Andreas Johnson I'm sure would be coming back

 

[Spirit of 67]

Or they want McQuaid...maybe Shattenkirk.

Not even a little.

Well, I didn't read it but is that the Ask or the Expectation?
You always ask for more than you expect.

 

[Spirit of 67]

It could with retention.

Zaitsev would have to go back the other way.
