Depends on the cost and I'm guessing it would take a haul. Tampa doesn't have to worry about signing him for another two offseasons and he'll still be a RFA so I doubt they consider moving him.Not sure if it’s been mentioned elsewhere but would people be willing to trade for point? and what would it take?
Point has become expendable for Tampa due to Anthony Cirelli becoming an absolute stud. With Tampa being in a win-now window, I don't see them moving him for anything short of an overpay.
Zuccarello: Rangers' treatment of Lundqvist is 'disrespectful'if zuccarello was willing to head back to rags would you trade for lundquist? temp solve our goalie issue after buying out doobs.
Zuccarello also provided some interesting stuff about Boudreau in that interview, and what happened there.
But the most important thing he said...he loves Minnesota!
Not until he's gone, then he'll start is ripping it like he's been repeatedly ripping the Rangers organization after talking about how much he loved it there.Well, he's not going to say he hates it...

I don’t think Point is “expendable,” and trade would only make sense if it filled a need in a 1 for 1 trade that doesn’t have them taking on any extra cap. Don’t see how MN has anything worth Point, and don’t see how they are able to take on a package of players as they need to stay cap compliant.Point has become expendable for Tampa due to Anthony Cirelli becoming an absolute stud.

It's almost like he's upset about getting f***ed over by a horseshit organization that he went out of his way to help.Not until he's gone, then he'll start is ripping it like he's been repeatedly ripping the Rangers organization after talking about how much he loved it there.
I just from liking to loving him.
What would he cost us?
I'd take Raanta for sure but hard pass on Stepan.Any interest in Raanta and Stepan after their signing bonuses are paid?
Only $2mil/player afterwards.
Raanta would be an excellent target. Stepan wouldn't really be desired, but there are worse options.Any interest in Raanta and Stepan after their signing bonuses are paid?

Stepan sucks now.Zuccarello wouldn't mind two friends coming in, both are former Rangers. But to be honest, I don't think Stepan is the top center you're looking for. He didn't impress me, but I haven't followed him in Arizona.

Raanta is a great option because he's a better player than Dubnyk, on a good AAV, and only has 1 year left. Pair him with Kaakonen for a year and then reassess off of how both guys play.Is raanta capable of being 1a for 1-2 year until one of our Iowa Goalies are ready?
Dumba and Point are pretty different in value at this point with the season each was having. Probably looking at significant adds from our side.If you could somehow make a Dumba-Point trade without adding too much and get Raanta for cheap while buying out the last year of Dubnyk, the team would look so different.
