Oliver Kylington + Matt Stajan + 4th 2019 for Rick Nash

Nash will probably move on from the NYR organization this offseason and it's better to get something for him than nothing. I would say they should keep him from the playoffs but reportedly they have made McDonagh and Kreider avialable so I don't think they are planning on making a cup run.

Calgary gets their middle six winger with lots of playoff experience and only have his terrible contract for half a season. They can then resign him if they want.

This was a similar return to what Detroit got for a rental Vanek last year.

Don’t see how that helps NYR in a tight division. If that’s the return, I assume they will use Nash like their own rental and negotiate to keep him after if they want.

Not enough for Nash. Stajen basically has negative value.

Right now Nash doesn’t have a ton of value at 7.8 million so if they trade him the have to take cap back. Stajan isn’t that much. NYR save 4.8 mil and lost Stajan day the end of the year. Also this deal would only take place if the Rangers are truly not trying to compete this year. I just thought of this with all the reports of them exploring trade options for their current stars.

Flames take it. I wish the Rangers would.
